As I understand it, one would need a csu/dsu and then a router. I might want some dial-up connections and I heard that there might be some high-speed serial boards that have the csu/dsu built in. Anyone heard of any? FreeBSD: What is a good way to provide an email-only user account? I will use a pop3 server for access. I'm guessing that I need to not provide a login shell for the user? Any other strategies? Thanks! Greg
