My turn for corrections,  My entry in modem lights advanced for is 
/var/lock/LCK..ttyS1
**
I see the following from /var/log/messages when I get a successful modem 
connection:

. . .
Aug 26 17:18:47 didius pppd[15518]: Serial connection established.
Aug 26 17:18:47 didius pppd[15518]: Using interface ppp0
Aug 26 17:18:47 didius pppd[15518]: Connect: ppp0 <--> /dev/ttyS1
Aug 26 17:18:48 didius pppd[15518]: PAP authentication succeeded
. . .

But,...thanks to your prompting, I took a really close look at what the 
entries were in the  "Advanced" tab in preferences.  It turns out the  
"ppp0" entry for the device had an extra space behind it.

It looks like would expect it too look, now.   Thanks for the "nudge".
