Cameron, The fact that your users require this facility 'out of ours' seems to suggest that a low cost solution is required. Netware connect falls into this category an it really depends on how many people need this as to how cost effective it will actually be. The 2 port version is around 250 uk pnds and seems to run ok with dos, windows and windows 95 clients. We have only just started using it so can't comment too much on it's features except to say that it does work but isn't fast. From memory, this product will also support ISDN which could be usefull is there is a chance that this will facility will become more important and heavily used in the future. Alternatively, you may look at NT. It's NetWare Gateway coupled with RAS could give a higher performance solution. I say this from listening to others rather than personal experience, so check it out carefully before you spend any money. > >>I have a Netware 3.12 network and several people have expressed > >>(including me) a desire to be able to log in after hours over a phone > >>line.
