Sorry if this is another stupid question. I want to connect two PCs (one runs FBSD 2.1.5 and another one runs MS-DOS communication program). I've been told since these PCs are too far away, I need (1). a line driver, (2). a haul modem or (3). a modem on each PC. Since I have spare modems, I think this may be the easiest approach. But here's the deal: I thought modems are used to dial-in and dial-out, if I just run a phone cable between them, how am I gonna configure them? I am puzzled. Help!
