If you are going to do some thing like this with digital modems, IE ISDN, 56k v.90 stuff. You should probably look into using a terminal server and cistron radius on FreeBSD. The proxy stuff should be no problem to do. The terminal servers will allow you to have more growth potential and easier to trouble shoot etc. -=>Adam<=- Michael Urban wrote: > > We are looking into starting up a small ISP to provide filtered > internet access to our area.
