1) Is it possible to connect an X-windows server (e.g., a Mac or PC running appropriate software) over a serial connection using modems to the client (a Sun 4)? If so, what is required? 2) What kind of speed is required in a modem link for the above to be tolerable (assuming it is possible)? Can it be done with 2400 baud modems implementing MNP or v.32bis compression, 9600 baud modems, 9600 baud with compression, . . .? All help will be appreciated. I will post a summary of any responses received by mail. (Recommendations and warnings about X-window server software for the Mac are also welcome.) Jamie Beard (beard@wuibc2.wustl.edu)
