Be patient. I was busy today.
Use mgetty. I have used it for several years and am quite happy with it.
I haven't tried it with RedHat 8.0 but have used it with RH-5.x, RH-6.x,
and RH-7.x. It is really a nice package. It doesn't lock your modem up.
You can still make outbound PPP connections and even receive voice calls
without interference.
If you don't want to spend a lot of time with the man pages I can help you
set it up.
