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 ~]# 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

P.S.  will post this message two times in case the
first one does not get through.  Sorry if it is
annoying but many people will be benefitted if we can
solve this problem.
