Ok, when I tried connecting with WVDial today as user I got the message:
cannot open /dev/modem: Permission denied
cannot open /dev/modem: Permission denied
cannot open /dev/modem: Permission denied
The modem works fine and I can connect as root, but not as the user.
This has worked fine in the past, why it changed suddenly I don't know.
I thought about file permissions first off, so I did some checking on the obviously
relevant files.
/dev/modem lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root modem->/dev/ttyS2
/dev/ttyS2 crw-r----- 1 root dialout
I am a member of the dialout group.
As I said, the hardware if fine. I'm using it now.
Suggestions please?
Thank you.
