If you are in a stituation similar to:

+-----+       +-----+
|Win95|       |Linux+--+===+
+--+--+       +--+--+  Modem
   |             |
   +-------------+ Ethernet etc etc

and you from you win95 machine to the linux machine you will be able to acces
the modem as if you were on the console of the linux box itself, permissions
permitting of course.  BUT you will have to do something special if you want
to run X (Gui) apps :)

: any comments would be appreciated
