[comp.sys.next] Two cubes talking via modem?

So...

I have a cube at home with a 9600 baud modem.
My friend has a cube at home with a 9600 baud modem(same model).

Any way we can get these puppies to talk to each other?

Any way we can interact with each others filesystems other than via a term
emulator/comm program?

Any software out for the cube like Timbuktu/Remote or Carbon Copy or Shared X?

Anybody else out there see a great potential for this?

Frankly I think this would be great stuff for NeXT to develop as part of the
basic environment...after all this is supposed to be an interpersonal computer.

I would hope that would be more than just TCP/IP/ethernet/NFS.
