There are a few problems. Whenever I try to use my modem via 'tip', such as tip 570-1889 I get the following message : lock open : No such file or directory all ports busy And the phone/remote files make no sense at all so when I try that approach it never works either, I get an 'unknown host' message. Also, appropos doesn't find my whatis.db so 'man -k xxxx' doesn't work either. If anyone knows how to fix these problems I would appreciate the help.
