 Have you first tried setting up the modem on the correct com port? You
need to use the modem tool in the control panel to do that first.  If you
have Windows 95/98, you can look up exactly what com port it's on by
checking in the Windows control panel in the modem icon.  Once you find
the right com port, use the modem tool in X 's control panel to set it on
the right one. Then, use minicom to make sure it works ok. You can use
Linuxconf in X  to set up your nameserver and ppp configurations.
