Hello, I've just reinstalled red hat linux 7.2 with the server configuration and im having some trouble setting up my modem. How woudl i set up my modem from the command prompt?

If anyone has any websites or could give a breif description if how to do thism I would be very grateful. Thanks,

Peter

r u making a dialup cnxion? If that is the case, try this:

wvdialconf /etc/wvdial.conf

For manually setting modems, look for the setserial command:

man setserial
