RE: OT: Dial up gateway software

["Nick Shore" <nick.shore@xxxxxxx>]

Oops did I post that many times ??? (crappy outlook)

We only have the ISDN card in one machine, and would like to
use the connection from several.
Normally we would just use a CIsco 1603 router but in this case
the SecurID causes a problem, as we need to have interactive login.

I'll probably end up using ISDN4linux and triggering the dialup by logging
into
the box and running a script :-)

Nick.

PS. this is not our normal connectivity, we have a leased line into BTnet
for that :-)
