First off, PLEASE do not send messages like this to every single mailing list when one obvious one, "questions", will do just as well! If you're trying to be utterly ignored by an irate FreeBSD populace, you're doing it the right way! > What is the specific line I need to add to /etc/ttys to setup the modem, You could say "man ttys" and get much of this information, but the following line will do it: ttyd1 "/usr/libexec/getty std.9600" unknown on secure > need to do in the server to be able to dial in from a differant computer? Nope. > also can I call from DOS computer to the server?

It depends on what you're trying to do - do you want to provide lots of lines coming in, or what? There are different needs for different types of service. > where can I get some help to become an ISP ? There is a good web page for this but unfortunately I don't seem to have the URL in my hotlist. Perhaps someone else will remember and can tell you where it is. > Thank you You're welcome. Jordan
