A frame relay was my first choice I even have a sangoma 508 card but my isp
is paying for the line and he wants ISDN. There system is running Windows NT
they are no help at all on Linux. The lines were installed yesterday now
how to make the best use of them is my problem. I have my network divided
in two with the linux box doing ipforwarding between them and it also has
the ppp link and is masquerading to it from both networks. Any thoughts on
how best to make use of the 2 ISDN lines?
