That's good news. I use eql here and at present have three 56K modems connecting a school to the ISP.
The one big problem is that the ISP has three boxes and eql needs to have all modems connected to the same box. This is purely a matter of chance when you dial in to a rotary, so most days I have to be content with two lines connected. So eql is nice but what I really need is Multi Link ppp. I believe that BSD has it and I know that Multisloth has it. Any ideas on how to stir things along for Linux? BTW, I'm in the market for a good connection manager if anyone has one. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Lindsay Allen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Perth, Western Australia voice +61 8 9316 2486 32.0125S 115.8445E vk6lj Debian Unix =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= On Mon, 4 May 1998, Roberto Lumbreras wrote: > Hi all. > > I've noted that debian doesn't have the tool to manage the EQL > network device.
