Folks.
I recall, before the days of widespread ADSL availability, that a company called satnet {ihug?} ran a satellite service for which someone had made available an "unofficial" linux client.
Does anyone know where to get this client? satnet.com.au doesn't seem to exist anymore, and ihug.com.au doesn't seem to mention satellite connections anywhere.
I have a friend who uses satellite via bigpuddle, and is getting really, really peeved at having to run their winblows client just to connect to the net. If I can find the satnet client, maybe he can fudge it to work with bigpuddle.
Anyone got a link, or got the client {and source?} and be willing to share it?

The drivers section has linux drivers (although not "supported").
