It is a high speed serial port. I am using pppd for my connection to my isp, and is run like this. pppd +ua /etc/ppp/ppp.pap 57600 /dev/cuaa1 connect chat -f /etc/ppp/ppp.chat -v ppp.pap hold just my login name and password on two lines. ppp.chat is the chat script that dials the modem. I dont get the erors when I tell the machine to connect at 19200, but I thought that the High speed serial ports should be able to handle 57600. Anyway, if anyone has any idea why this is happening could you please post or write to the address above. --- Jared --jared@vt.edu
