Thanks to all those who responded with the info about StarNine.  I have
talked with them about their products and, as you say, they look very good.
However, also has you note, their product is not available yet.  In addition,
the first release will only be on A/UX and Sun (I think).  That won't help
those of us using other UNIX machines such as NCR Towers.

That was I why I wanted to get a telecom script working for the short term
and then migrate to a more sophisticated solution later on.
