I have been trying to get a external parallel modem to work with linux and im having a little problem....I'm running Mandrake 10.0 on kernel 2.4.25 i don't know how to set the port. i was thinking that it would be COM3 because i have two serial ports. Can any one help :(

i tryed to use an internal modem...the modem i used was a pctel modem and i heard that it would work with linux so i recompiled to 2.4.25 and i downloaded a pctel modem driver 9 (pctel-0.9.6.tar.gz) and i recompiled it into the source and i ran the driver and it said in the driver that it found it. but i could not understand how to use it.

How about an external serial? Those should be in abundance.
