Eudaly) Newsgroups: comp.unix.bsd.freebsd.misc Subject: Multiple simultaneous logins over 1 phone line Date: 30 Sep 1995 16:47:48 GMT Organization: Prairienet, the East-Central Illinois Free-Net Lines: 8 Message-ID: <44jsbk$bfe@vixen.cso.uiuc.edu> NNTP-Posting-Host: firefly.prairienet.org X-Newsreader: TIN [version 1.2 PL2] Is it possible, using freebsd and any additional hardware/software, to use a freebsd box as a sort of server that would enable multiple simultaneous logins, from terminals connected to it, to an internet service provider? Would a slip/ppp connection from the freebsd box to the ISP be required? Or would it have to be a network connection? Any help, including bibliographic suggestions, would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
