If you do an lsmod and match that to what is in modules.conf the stallion.o
might now exist.
If not, use the same format as the other items in modules.conf using the
info for how the alais is matched up in lsmod.

Computone is out of business from I have found.
I use Computone and Equinox on SCO but am going to use on Equinox on Linux.

Do you use Computone on Linux or just UNIX?
