OPen case surgery no problem. What was the model/version of the "new
V92 PCI US Robotics modem for $19.50" and where did you get it? That's
precisely what I'm looking for. Thank you.

The box is marked "Model 5610B". That was an unloading clearance
sale at Staples, maybe a year ago.

No problem. Someone is bound to have one, an on-line retailer or ebay.
The model number just makes it that much easier. Thnx.

I don't seem to have ntop installed and I am using the xfce desktop. I
don't think I have knemo either.

I am trying to install ntop and I am getting this error
"configure: error: Unable to find RRD at /usr/local/rrdtool: please use
--with-rrd-home=DIR"
So I went to check and I also didn't have this directory rrdtool in
/usr/local. I went and got rrdtool and install it. rrdtool seem to have
install with no problem but, I am still getting this error from ntop.
How can I get this to work? Thanks
