	  Please check your permissions on file /dev/cuax where x is the
  number of COM to which your modem is connected (should be rw-rw-rw)
  You may also test your modem using 'cu' command fe. "cu -l /dev/cuax"

Nice try. Kermit is run suid: probemodem is run by root. I find cu to
be extremely cantankerous, but had tried it, so this is definitely not
the problem.

The permissions of the modem lines should typically be ownership uucp,
group uucp, -rw-------, or mode 0600. Only individuals or programs
with uucp or root permissions should be able to access it to prevent
interference from non-privileged programs or other users.
