Here is my log:

> 18-Sep 11:03:33 EL01 Guest on-line using telnet (127.0.0.1)
> 18-Sep 11:03:34 EL01 Security level 5000, 90 mins today

! 18-Sep 11:03:57 EL01 User requested to terminate call
! 18-Sep 11:03:57 EL01 User off-line

As you can see, it does not complain about a modem init failure here.

I am starting mine from eleserv as well (using only "eleserv -telnet").
I can not think of any reason why it would think you are using a modem.

Can anyone else duplicate this issue?

Regards,  Mike
