Hi,
I have a RS-232 external dial-up modem that I use from time to time. It works
fine when connected through a RS-232 port. I'd like to use the modem with
another PC that doesn't have a RS-232 port, so I bought a RS-232 to USB adapter

I'm using pppd and the respective pon/poff scripts and configuration files.
This configuration works fine with the modem when the modem is connected via a
RS-232 port. When the modem is connected via a USB port it doesn't. Th
