Modem port

["Christopher W. Aiken" <cwaiken@telerama.com>]

I generally use "xterm -e wvdial &" to fire up my 
dialup connection.  I noticed that "/dev/ttyS1" has "rw"
permissions for the "dialout" group.  A lot of times
when I hit "Ctrl-C" to stop "wvdial" the permissions
on "/dev/ttyS1" are set to "r".  The next time I run
wvdial, it fails because of the missing "w" permission.

Why is this?  Should I be stopping wvdial in another
manner that a "Ctrl-C" ?
