The problem:

	Two Unix computers are to be installed about 5 miles apart. They
	need to have some form of high speed communication between them.
	Uucp over a high speed modem over a leased telephone line may suffice.
	I am concerned about the reliability of uucp, however.  What are my
	other options. 

Priorities:

	1) Integrity of data.
	2) Minimum maintenance.
	3) Throughput.
	4) Cost.

Thanks:

	All responses will be greatly appreciated. If I get enough 
	responses I will summarize. I also welcome any suggestions about a
	more appropriate or specific group to which this question should be
	posted.
