well, I have looked at the links for linux, and still dont see what i want. Lets say you have 2 computers, one at home, and one at work. Any example will work as long as the 2 computers are at different locations. You would simply DIAL into the other computer, as a 56k modem can recieve a fax, data packet, or signal, then it should be possible for it to answer a call and have a script, call a program to hook up the connection to the internet on the computer "host". There is no reason i see at this time why this cant work. Also, if you did it at a home address, they you could in fact , share your internet connection with your laptop, or a friend. I can see possible applications for this if i can find something that works. any ideas??
