I'm a newbie and just getting started with Linux. I'm running Red Hat 6.0
and have an AOpen FM56-ITU/2 ISA modem setup on com3. Red Hat recognizes the
modem and I'm able to dial my ISP and I get the normal noises followed by
the silence normally associated with the ISP checking login name/password.
At this point I get disconnected??? I have double checked with ISP for
correct DNS numbers and the login/password info is also correct. Any info
would be appreciated.....
