I was trying to get my linux box configured so anyone could call in, the 
section of my inittab file looks like this:

S1:23:respawn:/sbin/mgetty ttyS1

When I boot my computer, it just hangs and says INIT: Id "S1" respawning 
too fast: disabled for 5 minutes

I tried some different things but I still can't get it to work, my modem 
is on COM 1.

thanks...
