Hi,
In my network at home I have a FreeBSD-machine and a Windows'95 machine
and my modem in connected to the FreeBSD-machine. But occasionally I'd
like to use my modem from my WIndows95 machine and since I find switching
the plugs not an elegant solution I wondered if there was something to
use the FreeBSD-modem over the ethernet-network. I have searched for a
while now, and all I can find are windows to windows solutions.
Does anyone know if there is something out there that I can use?
Thanks & greetings,
Sake
