Novell LINUX ENTERPRISE SERVER 10 - INSTALLATION AND ADMINISTRATION 04-08-2006 Installation Manual page 587

In the YaST Control Center, access the modem configuration under Network Devices.
If your modem was not automatically detected, open the dialog for manual configuration.
In the dialog that opens, enter the interface to which the modem is connected under
Modem.
Figure 31.4 Modem Configuration
If you are behind a private branch exchange (PBX), you may need to enter a dial prefix.
This is often a zero. Consult the instructions that came with the PBX to find out. Also
select whether to use tone or pulse dialing, whether the speaker should be on, and
whether the modem should wait until it detects a dial tone. The last option should not
be enabled if the modem is connected to an exchange.
Under Details, set the baud rate and the modem initialization strings. Only change these
settings if your modem was not detected automatically or if it requires special settings
for data transmission to work. This is mainly the case with ISDN terminal adapters.
Leave this dialog by clicking OK. To delegate control over the modem to the normal
user without root permissions, activate User Controlled. In this way, a user without
administrator permissions can activate or deactivate an interface. Under Dial Prefix
Regular Expression, specify a regular expression. The Dial Prefix in KInternet, which
can be modified by the normal user, must match this regular expression. If this field is
left empty, the user cannot set a different Dial Prefix without administrator permissions.
