Sendpage implements all aspects of this type of software, including an SNPP client, an SNPP server, a queuing engine, a modem control engine, a TAP communication system, and an email notification system. . This package provides the SNPP server. The error: When the package is installed, it is configured to run as the user daemon. The problem is that the user daemon is not added to the dialout group. When the server is run it doesn't have the correct permissions to connect to the TTY port. The fix: Have the package add the user daemon to the correct dialout group. Thanks Jason Love
