Turned out to be fairly simple (the handbook section on this was very clear and easy to follow -- good work!). What I'm most impressed with is how well this works even with ppp on demand running, using the same modem/port. As soon as a ppp session terminates, the modem resets to auto-answer and receives incoming connects without a hitch. Very nice! -- Conrad Sabatier http://www.neosoft.com/~conrads
