It would seem that something on your Newton is using the serial port. Do you
have the Newton set to wait to receive faxes? I doubt it, as you have to
basically devote your Newt to that, but do you have some other software that
could be using the serial port? I have a similar setup, except I use the
Firewire PowerBook. Everything else is the same. On the iMac, make sure that
you are using the Printer port (port 1) and that the control panel is set to
call it the printer port. It doesn't work as well if you use the second
port, and call it the modem port. There are some wierd quirks with it.
