Heya Leased line setup as follows : [server] [modem] - 2 wireleased line - [modem][win98 client] I've been toying with this for about a week now and with no luck ? Although my efforts have been based on debian ... I am 99 % sure my failure to get this working seems to be my configuration of the win98 box . Getting this to work on a linux machine was very easy ... but for some reason i cant get it to work on win98 ? At present i am using "null modem" on the win98 . It gets to verifying username and password and then after 30 seconds it times out and complains the remote computer did not respond to a network request . On the linux side i get LCP config request timeouts .. I realise this seems off topic for a freebsd mailing list ... But my question is this ... Has anyone actualy succeeded in getting this to work ? And if you have can you please send me your config files ? Aswell as your win98 configuration ... Or just the win98 configuration would do . I've heard rumours that setting this up with win98 is actualy impossible ... but i would just like to make 100 % sure . Thanks in Advance Gideon Oosthuysen ps. Again i apologize for the off topic but i am desperate ... if this is indeed possible i will try and set it up with freebsd . I have tried asking for help from the linux community which replied install linux client , The Microsoft community said install Microsoft 2000 server and the Modem manufacturer refused to help since its not a hardware issue .
