What I would do is take out the modem and see if kudzu recognises it is gone; then place it back and see if kudzu configures it. If kudzu doesn't recognise it and configure it then it is a hardware problem. kppp should also work with your modem. -- ------------------------------------------- Aaron Konstam Computer Science Trinity University 715 Stadium Dr. San Antonio, TX 78212-7200 telephone: (210)-999-7484 email:akonstam@xxxxxxxxxxx
