   Well, I'm trying a few things with my new Zyxel modem, and have been unable
to find answers to the following in the manual.

    1. How do you set up /dev/cua as a fax modem that can be chosen by, for
instance FaxReader.app? I was hoping to be able to do that manually without
buying NXFax, but perhaps that is the answer.

    2. Other times I run SLIP on the line. Currently the only host
that is known (as a telnet/ftp host) is my SLIP0REMOTE address. How
does one go about configuring a system to route everything that isn't
local out SLIP0? I'd also like to setup to use the DNS? It would sure
be nice if I could connect to the appropriate IP nameing servers and
have direct internet access from home.
