You could just grab a p200, stick in a multiport serial card and plug in
lots of modems.
Alternatively you could use USB modems and skip the serial card bit.
However im not too sure of the state of usb modems in linux.
www.linux-usb.org.
You cant use them in NT4 as it has no USB stack and MS arent going to
make one. I saw one from some company (sorry i cant remember) that HP
uses for its printers in NT. It seemed ok, it ran in your system tray,
however i only had a logitech camera to test with it and no it didnt
work (Well it saw the device but couldnt provide a driver)
anyway yeah, i dont know about isdn, but i think usb modems are
potentially a good option for small dial in clusters.
