It makes sense, but shouldn't matter as long as you are *CONSISTENT*
about what you call the modem device. Most sites make /dev/modem a symbolic
link to /dev/ttyS1 or /dev/ttyS0 under Linux, so software such as minicom
automatically uses the correct device by default.

It's also usually without the "/dev/" in Linux: it's not clear
to me that it should work correctly *with* the /dev/.

I use the following:

	mo:2345:respawn:/usr/libexec/fax/faxgetty modem
