I found the answer to my problem on some german message board... thank
the good Lord for free online translators!! :) even if they do get half
of the words backwards. :)
Basically all I had to do was a chmod 4755 yaps
Which changed
-rwxr-xr-x to
-rwsr-xr-x
thanks a lot to everyone who gave suggestions, because odds are some of
those other permissions weren't right either...

Here's what my permissions look like:
/dev/cua/b:
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root nagios 55 Jan 30 2002 b ->
../../devices/pci at 1f,0/pci at 1,1/ebus at 1/se at 14,400000:b,cu
/devices/pci at 1f,0/pci at 1,1/ebus at 1/se at 14,400000:b,cu:
crw-rw-rw- 1 uucp nagios 20,131073 Jan 21 13:50
/devices/pci at 1f,0/pci at 1,1/ebus at 1/se at 14,400000:b,cu
/usr/local/bin/yaps:
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root other 359184 Jan 15 09:44 yaps
/etc/yaps.rc:
-rw-r--r-- 1 root other 8805 Jan 20 16:03 yaps.rc
do these look ok? Is there anything else I should be checking??
Thanks for the replies :)

make sure the nagios user has permissions to write to the modem device -
/dev/cua/b or whatever it is.
