If you will only use your serial ports then most probably 2 modems but I you want more than that provide a multiport card(cyclades,etc).

Mgetty is very simple dialin program which handles login over a serial line. http://www.swcp.com/~jgentry/pers.html http://alpha.greenie.net/mgetty/ I prefer to use Portslave and a radius server. http://sourceforge.net/projects/portslave/ http://www.radius.cistron.nl/ Cheers, --glynn > thanks > > Ian Ponce > > _ > Philippine Linux Users Group.
