Re: Modem configuration

[RDuran2099@aol.com]

I have the exact same problem too.  I purchaced the CD from LSL afterwards
and installed DUNC.  For some reason at the end of the configuration proccess
I get a message:  "Error Executing command"  I read the Related HOW To's and
I'm still confused.  

If it's okay with steve, Could you please cc. me on any replies?

Thanks

P.S. I used DosLinux (Slackware based, I think) for awhile and even though
it's not a rich as Debian, the ppp dialup did work.... go figure???

 Ok, guys, I give...
 
 I have a base installation running from floppies (ver 1.3) on a 586
 sharing a hard drive with win95.  Everything works as it should, so
 far.  I'm trying to get ppp running so I can ftp the packages I need.
 I'm a real newbie to linux, and I'm not understanding the setup process
 for my modem, an external usr 33.6 voice/fax (not a "winmodem").  I know
 my modem is on com 2 / irq 3.  Do I need to make a link somewhere in
 /dev to get things rolling?  When I do a dmesg it shows both serial
 ports...
 
 I've tried reading the howto and other documentation, but it seems I'm
 getting myself more confused by the minute.  Can anybody direct me thru
 the sequence to get this thing running?  I hear a lot of talk about
 minicom, but I don't have it yet.
 
 I think I got most of the IP stuff in right when I did the install, so I
 think all I need to get done is get my modem operable & get ppp
 configured to get to my isp...
 
 Help please!
 
 TIA
