I've just downloaded Portslave (from the original Portslave site) and
Radius (from Livingston ftp site).  Apparently, once Portslave is up and
running it will set up the hardware to detect a ring, and then respond
by getting user ID and PASSWORD and service required, after which it
will pass this information on to a Radius daemon (which is apparently
supposed to activate the requested service like ftp, telnet, etc.).  
This is all new to me (setting up a dial up server operation).  Before I
get started I would like opinions regarding the best way to do this
whole thing.  Also, does anyone know about the hardware side of this
whole thing and which hardware for this purpose will run on Linux.  I am
thinking of setting up an old compaq i486 DX66 as the server for this
whole thing (in which case the I/O cards will probably be older (ISA)
and maybe not available?). Anyone know anything at all about any of this
stuff?  I'm open to alternative solutions.  Also if there are HOWTO's
(covering the complete scenario) on this subject would someone be kind
enough to point me in their direction.

Thanks in advance.

Bye-thanks_TED
