Well I made some progress, it was actually a "faulty" comm port, now
I can get it to at least recognize that there's a modem on /dev/cuaa1. I try
to dial up with seyon, it send the something to the modem, but it won't
actually dial...I also, still, can't get ppp to dial up *sigh*. Any help would
be appreciated.
