Hi there,
On muh Debian systim, the situation is as follows

ls -l /dev/ttyS1                                        ~
crw-r-----   1 root     dialout    4,  65 Oct 18 20:03 /dev/ttyS1

ls -l /dev/modem                                        ~
lrwxrwxrwx   1 root     uucp           10 Sep  3 01:18 /dev/modem -> /dev/ttyS1 

Actually even in one of the PCQ mags I remember that /dev/modem was
changed the owner to uucp
the command

chgrp uucp /dev/modem

So I guess modem should be in the group uucp

My Rs 0.02 ;-)
