Ranum) Newsgroups: comp.sources.wanted Subject: modem/window MUX Message-ID: <1990Nov15.225853.26239@decuac.dec.com> Date: 15 Nov 90 22:58:53 GMT Sender: news@decuac.dec.com (Network News) Organization: Digital Equipment Corp., Washington Ultrix Resource Center Lines: 17 Originator: mjr@hussar.dco.dec.com has anyone ever written a modem multiplexer for windows ? something that would allow me to, say, open 4 windows on my Sun at home, with their input all channeling to a process that tags each packet with a window number before sending it across the line to a server on a remote host which then demultiplexes and sends the data to an equal number of ptys on that host, and reverses the process ? It's kind of a bummer to have windows on a workstation at home but only one remote connection. (SLIP is out) anyone done this yet ? mjr. -- "When choosing between two evils, give preference to the council of your tummy over that of your testes.
