Hello. Maybe someone can help me out. I got caller id delux on my line this afternoon and I have been using minicom to see the information that comes over the caller id. it is four lines for those who do not know the format. DATE =0123 TIME = 2102 NAME = Turnage Patrick NMBR = 1234567890 I don't want to have to keep switching to my minicom console when I get a call to hear the information I want it to be directed directly to all my consoles. My modem is /dev/ttyS3 or /dev/modem. I've tried things like tail -f /dev/modem >/dev/tty0 but it doesn't work. I've also tried taking minicom's capture file and piping it through to the tty0 but it doesn't work because minicom writes to that file after it closes. tty0 is the correct tty for the console no matter the actual tty right? I do not have a device called /dev/console.. I just don't know what else to do from here.. sincerely, thanks, Patrick ----- Patrick Turnage E-mail: pturnage at tampabay.rr.com AOL Instant Messenger: kg4dqk Home Page: http://www.access-connect.com
