			    don't use this anymore (baeh bah !!! ;-))
Use /dev/ttyS<n> (/dev/ttyS1 for com2)
because cua<n> can be more easyly tricked to dial out even 
when DCD control signal sez not to.
that's why in former times programmers used cua<n> for dialing out
and ttyS<n> for in
since kernel 2.2 you get a warning in the logs when you use cua.

just my 0.02 $
grrrrreetings jö!
