I am interested in setting up a MacSE with hard drive and 2400b modem and no lan connections (just local phone) so that it can be used for FTP, e-mail (internet, bitnet), and telnet. Is this possible? What additional software/hardware would I need? I have uupc for the Mac, but the documentation is a bit cryptic. I'd appreciate any help and will post summaries and or bounce responses if anyone is interested.

I don't know of any PD programs that allow SLIP, other than a version of NCSA Telnet that was modified by Cisco (?) to do SLIP. Our product, TCP/Connect II, contains SLIP as well as the following Telnet (VT240/241, TN3270, Tek 4014), FTP, NNTP (netnews), SMTP/POP, SNMP, etc... If you are interested drop me a note with your address and I will put some literature in the mail for you. > I have uupc for the Mac, but the documentation is a bit cryptic. > There should be some docs for this floating around on the net somewhere. > I'd appreciate any help and will post summaries and or bounce responses > if anyone is interested.
