I have an annoying problem with my modem setup and Free-BSD..Apparently, when I boot into FreeBSD, my USR modem *thinks* it is in fax machine mode, and whenever I was to access it (ppp, minicom, etc) I have to do an ATZ and then dial the number.. Also, when I stop using the modem, it resets to fax machine mode shortly after (10 sec. later).. The peculiar thing is when I boot into DOS on the same machine (different partition) the modem works fine... This gets really annoying b/c when I let BSD sit idle, and my phone rings, it will pick it up automatically and start sending fax start-up signals:( Is there any process or daemon in BSD which sets up the modem (in my case /dev/cuaa1..) which would cause this problem? Any info would help greatly! -Lefty G>
