my system is having red hat linux 7.3 anl kernel version is 2.4

i would also like to ask you that could it be possible that com 3 port is not installed on my system

You are using a 2.2 kernel driver and you note that you have a 2.4 kernel. If your kernel is 2.4, you can go to Linuxant web site at www.linuxant.com to download the correct driver in a rpm package by using their instructions.
