modemd - remote modem service for TCP/IP
=======================================
This is a simple remote modem server for Windows95 and NT which
supports the "protocol" used in the modemd/rmodem programs for UNIX by
Bjorn Ekwall <bj0rn at blox.se>.
The purpose is to be able to use a modem connected to a remote machine
and make it look as if it were on the local machine. Thus a Linux box
can use a modem (or any other character device) attached to a remote
NT machine.
This is a quick-and-dirty hack in pre-alpha version, and probably has
many shortcomings. It has no security features whatsoever, and is
only meant for use in a home environment. I released it anyway because
I find it quite useful.
Where to get it
==============
modemd for Windows is free software, and is available from
http://www.student.nada.kth.se/~f96-bet/modemd/
The modemd/rmodem programs by Bjorn Ekwall are available from
