Apps that allow you to configure the modem, or take modem info from an .ini file, generally work. If your app tries to use DUN, RAS, or TAPI, those aren't supported, but you should see some fixme's on stderr or a crash if it tries to use those. --debugmsg +file,+comm might give us an idea what it is trying to do. There _might_ still be a bug in wine serial comm, but I have been using it since September 1997. Hmmm, the terminal.exe program from wfw 3.11 seems to look at a [Terminal] Port= entry in win.ini > > Cheers, > > Tom Docking Lawson -- ---oops--- ________________________________________________________________ Sign Up for Juno Platinum Internet Access Today Only $9.95 per month!
