I second the recommendation for Shiva LANRovers. We use a pair of them
here, connected to 28.8K modems. They provide excellent connectivity.
The remote software is built into Win '95. You can then use any remote
control software you prefer on network connected systems. The advantage
is the you can manage your modems and security centrally. LANRovers can
be setup to use the Netware bindary for security, or to use a
third-party authentication product. We use Security Dynamics SecureID to
authenticate dialin users before they gain access to our network.
LANRovers support IP, IPX, and AppleTalk.
