Users, Groups, etc.

[Irena and Richard Jenkins]

On this machine I am user 'richard' ... and user richard is a member of the
group 'dialout'. Is this sufficient to access and control port 'com1' ...
because if I lack permissions ... then even if there is a link from
dosdevices com1 to /dev/ttyS0 ...wine will not be able to access com1.

Any comments on this??

What does 'ls -la /dev/ttyS?' say?
