I finally got a modem and can't wait to get it on the air. However, the
question is how ?? I figured I could communicate with the unit with
minicom, but so far, no dice.

Also, do I connect it to /dev/cua? or with /dev/ttyS? with minicom??

Also, I have linux kernel 2.0.29 and ax25-utils2.0.12c. Both compiled
with no problems on a 80386 and networked on to a larger home linux
system.

Is it better to use the ax25 system or use TNOS-2.22, which I also have
??

I'm a rael honest-to-god newbie with packet and do not even have a clue
as to what I'm doing, although I'm fairly comfortable with linux. I've
read all the applicable HOWTO's a couple of times but I'm still lost in
the ozone.

Any additional help will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
John C.
