A little background. I have been using Linux for about two years now.
Until recently I had been using Slackware but switched over to Redhat
5.2.  The hardware setup is the same. I think the mgetty release was
1.0.0

I use the mgetty+sendfax package (mgetty-sendfax-1.1.14-5) with three
different modems COM 2, 3, 4
The modem I am having trouble with is on COM 4 and it is used for
outside dial up access and fax transmissions. Ever since I switched to
Redhat, my system has been loosing access to this modem. (As an added
note, I have two systems with this problem.)
If I use minicom to access the modem (after loss) the only thing it
does is echo characters. The modem will not respond to any commands.
When I loose access to the modem the only way I know to make it work
again is rebooting the system.
The problem seems to happen randomly and only seems to happen after
someone hangs up from dial up access. Sometimes works for days
sometimes for only hours.
I don't have a printer configured so I don't think it is an interrupt
conflict.

As I am at a loss as to what this problem is, does anybody know how to
fix this?

Thanks,
Dan
