Modem

Hi, I want to setup a linux-machine with a mux-card of multi-modem card. It wil be used for customers to connect to it by modem. It should be able to handle several customers at the same time. Does anyone have a suggestion?

Re: Modem

Make sure the hardware you choose is on the Linux providers Hardware compatability list. If not, make sure the vendor provides drivers and will return your money if it doesn't work.

It would be helpful to know what Linux distribution you are using.

Read the Linux PPP HOWTO. This link may also help you in figuring out how to deploy, http://www.linuxgazette.com/issue36/ali.html. Another resource is the PPP Dial-in HOWTOhttp://www.yolinux.com/TUTORIALS/LinuxTutorialPPP-Dial-in.htmlYMMV.
