[aclug-L] Another modem problem

["Bates, Rod" <Rod.Bates@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

At the linux install, I got my modem working.  But now I have a new 
problem.  In minicom, I get no response at all to typing 'ATZ'.  (this
was responding, at the install fest).  When I try to connect to southwind.
the process terminates and leaves the messages below.   What
does "serial line is looped back" mean? 

Any help would be appreciated.
