IT WORKS! I noticed that the modem returns NO CARRIER quite often in minicom. I removed abort on "NO CARRIER" from the chatscript and it works, using pon.
Thanks Jiri, and thanks to all other people who helped solving my problem through this list. I hope this is the last e-mail I send using m$-windows.
Once you get PPP up and running, that should solve the dselect problem.
As for the connection from minicom, minicom doesn't set it up as a network.
I think there *is* a way to hand it over from minicom to ppp, but I'm not
sure how, because I've never tried it. I assume one would quit out of
minicom using the `do not hang up' option, log in as root, and then do
"pppd /dev/ttyS0" (or ttyS1). Somebody else actually tried it?
