First, I will assume that your modem is probably running on PnP mode. If not, then grab some manuals online or from the manufacturer, and ckeck what the jumpers do.

You will need isapnptools. I am assuming that Redhat will install those by default. Login as root and type:

pnpdump > /etc/isapnp.conf

View the /etc/isapnp.conf you created and alter the file to suit your modem. Save the file and type

isapnp /etc/isapnp.conf

If something goes wrong, go back to the /etc/isapnp.conf and try some new settings.

After that, you will need to use setserial to setup your modem and serial ports. I don't know the syntaz of setserial right offhand, but check the man page.

If after all that, the modem does not work, then you got a cheap Winmodem that will ONLY work under Windows. They will not work under Linux due to the manufacturers wanting to hoard a lot of money.
