Hello,

On our SBS2003 Standard server I use our modem sometimes to login to our
Partner PBX phone system. What happens is when I disconnect, and wish to
reconnect there is an error stating that my modem port is not availabe. Once
this happens the only way for me to reconnect is to shut down the server. Who
wants to do that!

Is there a specific process I can look for in services or Task manager that
I can shut-off and then reactivate. Our modem is recognized as a Conexant
soft 56 modem.

Thanks,
Greg
