Unfortunately that describes the hardware, but not which port has the modem connected (assuming a plug-in serial connection). I assume ttyS0 is COM1, always was in the past.

The kppp dialer tells me it cannot open the port as it is locked and in use.

So why is there no /dev/modem anymore and should´nt the OS create such a symlnk when it sees the first operating serial port not used by something else? (ie one would think that a serial modem could be plugged there).
