Hi at all,

I want me as a normal user to have access to my modem on ttyS1, so I put myself in the right groups and then did a "chmod g+w /dev/ttyS1". Everything worked fine, I had access to my modem and was happy. But after a reboot the permission settings were set back! Has anyone a solution for this?

Thanks a lot...

Use chmod a+rw /dev/ttyS1 to set the all/write flag to the dev node...or add yourself to ppp group and chgrp ppp /dev/ttyS1.Hope this helps.
