configure modem to start at boot

Dear users of Fedora Core 3 and discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxx,
    I still have not figured out how to make Fedora
load drives upon boot time with udev and other hacks
attempted.  In the /etc/init.d/ folder slmodemd is in
there and all appropriate links are made.  slamr is
running in the background, yet when I start kppp modem
is not recognized.

[root@localhost ~]# slmodemd &

[root@localhost ~]# SmartLink Soft Modem: version
2.9.10 Dec 18 2004 08:01:11
symbolic link `/dev/ttySL0' -> `/dev/pts/3' created.
modem `slamr0' created. TTY is `/dev/pts/3'
Use `/dev/ttySL0' as modem device, Ctrl+C for
termination.


Upon every boot, I have to retype slmodemd at the
console so that I can connect to the net.

I tried also copying a suggestion from another mail
after I loaded slmodemd.
[root@localhost ~]#  cp -a /dev/ttySL0
/etc/udev/devices
[root@localhost ~]#  chown root.root
/etc/udev/devices/ttySL0 

This did not work.  I probably need to create a
definition for udev.  But how do I do it?  I have read
some of the documentation of udev.  But I am afraid of
messing up the system.

Before udev when devfs was in place, had no problems
with loading slamr upon boot.  Any suggestions and/or
advice will be greatly appreciated.  Merry Christmas
to all and a Happy New Year.   

Thanks in advance,

Antonio
