Now that I think about it, there probably is an obvious anwser to this
question but I don't know it! Could someone please point me to some
hardware/software to do the following:

A Mac user (in this case an SE30 but in general the question arises for
any Mac) wants to remotely (ie from home) connect to our EtherTalk network.


What software is available for the remote Mac to make the serial port
and modem the network connection? What hardware/software is needed on a
machine on the net? The net machine could be a Mac, a Sun, a cisco
router or terminal obx, for instance.

Any recommendations? Solutions that include some security provisions
would be nice!
