[sorry, bit of a delay, I'm catching up on email] I don't think anyone mentioned these NetRamp type things. Can't get the direct URL (bloody web site), go to: http://www.netcomm.com.au/banksia/ and look under products for "NetRamp". I believe netgear also make a similar thing. A router with serial (for modem/frame/bigger) or BRI/PRI (for ISDN) interfaces would also do it. ISDN is not cheap though due to Telstra's pricing designed to deter people from using it. A far cheaper option (and probably better than 64k or 128k ISDN) is cable if possible.

Much as I hate to say it, Telstra's "Dial Connect" service works wonders for situations like this.

After some pain, I eventually persuaded the Eicon Diva cards to work under Linux. (even using Dead Rat 6.0) The second one was easy ;) Stay away from the Diva Pro's tho - it seems the pro's aren't supported by the hisax isdn drivers.

Re: [SLUG] dialin products
What do you mean by dial in products? if you establish a ppp or slop connection then you have a low bandwidth network connection which will then allow any network capable program to run over it. do you need instructions as to how you should setup a small ppp server?

Re: [SLUG] dialin products
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.
