Hi All
I am sort of in a pickle of how to do this.
If you will recall I have two computers that have the same modem in them, one
of which will dial out and one which will not dial out. The one that will not
dial out had a system crash and then was used on a network system for a while
and with one monitor and two computers I have been slow in working on. Anyway
the issue with the modem is that the system is not configured for the modem.
Both are US Robotics 56k v2 PCI. Well to simplify things I finally started
working on this issue again. So, I checked the driver being used for the
functioning computer to be ttyS1. Now my idea was to simply copy ttyS0 and
ttyS1 from one computer into the other and see if that solved the problem.
How does one do this? That is copy ttyS0 or ttyS1 to another computer.
I have done the following copied ttyS0 and ttyS1 from dev/ttyS0 and dev/S1 to
/home/trunk/ttySo and /home/trunk/ttyS1 so I can not mess up system files.
I have changed permission on both files to all.
As root using MC I have tried to copy both files to My_Document of the MS side
of this dual box and received error: Operation Not Permitted (1). I then
tried command line and received the same error.
I tried e-mailing the files out and received similar errors.
I tried copying the files to a floppy. Files show as being copied to floppy
but two other computers say files were not coppied. I then inserted blank
floppie in, mounted and same files were shown to exist on blank floppie.
I have tried CD burner but burner does not recognize existance of files.
I have not tried dd ing files as I am not familiar with that command, I do
have procedure for dd ing written down but from attempts to read floppie from
command line and showing existance of files on blank floppie suspect that
this will not be fruitful.
Also, floppies being used are formated as fat32 same as file system for MS
side which is also formated as fat32 but this should not my attempting to
transfer by e-mail attachment.
Does anyone have any suggestions.
Thanks
Frank
