COM port mapping is not TAPI-compatible. TAPI devices cannot be mapped to
client COM ports.

That's right. I thought the original poster was talking about sticking a modem
on the server COM port. A blurb from the
admin guide shoud help:
Client Serial Port Mapping
Client COM port mapping allows a remote application running on the server to
access devices attached to COM ports on the
client device. Client COM ports are not automatically mapped to server ports at
logon, but can be mapped manually using
the net use or change client commands. See "MetaFrame Presentation Server
Commands" on page 323 for more information
about the change client command. For more information about client COM port
mapping, see the Administrator's Guides for
the clients you plan to deploy.
I have never done this will PNAgent, but in PN there is a menu option for
modems which shows the install modems on the
client system. These become available to the users server side session as
client network devices, but need to be mapped
to be used by the application running on the server

You need to manually map the com ports as well.

I just need 1 user to use their local modem on their local com port, with ADP

accessing that modem. The driver for the modem is built into 2003 Server (what
I run Citrix on). Same driver used on XP
machines.
I need to have COM port mappings enabled in policies. Do I need to do anything
else?

If you mean outgoing using a modem for outgoing dial, you can connect the modem
to a COM port and simply let the user
access it directly. If you need to pool the modem or share it across the
network then you would need something like
SpartaCom which handles contention for ports and can re-direct the COM session
over IP.

Subject: [THIN] Using a modem in PS4.0
Is there anything special about getting a modem to work under PS4.0? I have an
HR person trying to do manual checks in
ADP PC/Payroll and it requires a modem. I'm using a USRobotics External 56k,
something very old and generic.
