I found my minicom connections very slow, although the default serial port setting is supposed to be 38.4 kb. I fixed it with the following command at the shell prompt: setserial /dev/ttyS1 spd_vhi (The device name depends on where your modem is located). /etc/init.d//setserial saves the serial port settings when you shutdown, and restores them on bootup. Another place to check is minicom configuration. In minicom, CTRL A O, choose "Serial port setup". HTH Bob -- _ |_) _ |_ Robert D. Hilliard <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> |_) (_) |_) 1294 S.W.
