Once again I'm thoroughly confused and puzzled. I've been trying to set up PPP access to my FreeBSD box and can't seem to figure out how to get anything to recognize my modem. It is a USR PnP 56k FAX/Modem. BSD seems to recognize it on the bus and to assign it as sio4 or siopnp (I'm not sure which). The next step I took was to install a terminal program called Minicom to configure the modem to work under UNIX. I configured Minicom's serial device as both /dev/sio4 and /dev/siopnp. When I try to run minicom, I get an error message that says "cannot open /dev/sio4: no such file or directory, a fact verified by empirical observation. -Shrug- I have two com ports plus the modem, labeled sio0, sio1. I disabled sio1 on the I/O card and via UserConfig (and on the card). Upon looking in UserConfig/communication devices, I noticed that it only lists sio0 through sio3. Does this mean I've got to add an additional serial port somewhere? If so, where? Any help in solving this riddle would be most appreciated. Bob Cohen b.p.e.Creative Web Design and Production P.O.
