Now we face a problem: how to link up a remote PC in a building 500 meters away from our FreeBSD-powered host. What we have is one-paire wire to the building, couple of US Robotics Sportster modems and very limited cash. The PC runs Win 3.1. No dial-up connection is available. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Andrey A.Ptitsyn
