My modem is on COM3 so in ppp.conf I have a line in the default that says "set device /dev/cuaa2". When I invoke ppp and enter "term" it comes back with "can't open the modem". I know the modem works on com3 because I'm dual booting with WFW 3.1 and I can boot windows and dial out on it. Any clues on how to fix this? Thanks, John Fleming
