Re: modem problems



1) Is the modem plug and play, and if so, are you using isapnp?
2) What version of Debian are you using?

If you are using hamm you should be able to allow normal users to use
dial-up services by adding them to group dip.  This probably holds true in
bo also, but I'm not sure (I had to change some permissions in the version
of bo that I had, but that was a long time ago).
