Well, you can ``make install'' to do the copying etc :-) Perhaps your modem isn't being very consistent (with the failure to ECHO). Are you trying things like ``ATZ'' and ``ATE1'' after typing ``term'' ? Regarding the select() error, I'm not sure where this is coming from. What does ``pstat -T'' say when (or just before) you get the error ? Perhaps you're running out of system-wide open files ? > Thanks, > > > Andrew Stevens. -- Brian , , Don't _EVER_ lose your sense of humour....
