Include the DMESG?  A DS5000 is an i386 machine?  /dev/tty00 & /dev/tty01
should work.  Do you have on-board serial ports?  Is the PCI modem a
WinModem chipset?

Add this line to /etc/remote:

com:dv=/dev/tty00:br#9600:dc

(play with the DV value)

Then:
# tip com

If it says connected, try to issue AT commands....
