I need to establish some sort of "high speed" link between Suns in Boston, MA. and Austin, TX and I'd like to hear recommendations from people who have done this sort of thing. What we implement will depend on cost and serviceability but some basic requirements are; * Remote logins for 2-3 users. * Reliable file transfers. (We will be maintaining mirrored 500mb file systems on each end and we figure we might have to transfer 50mb a day, worst case) How about T1, x.25, 56kbs, 19.2 modems, stat muxs, other? Now, we also have "shared development" agreements with a number of our customers who also want to be able to work remotely & exchange sources, how does that change our strategy? How do I set up a high-tech BBS? I'd like to hear success stories, horror stories, cost analysis.... I'll collect all responses and pass them on to anyone else who might be interested. Please mail all responses to jdc@lpi.uucp, don't use the return address. Thanks. --- Dustin Clampitt jdc@lpi.uucp R&D Lab Supervisor, Language Processors Inc., Framingham, MA 01701 ---
