I have the following situation: I have a friend that lives not too far away
who just got an Amiga (with a modem). I am looking for a program that would
let me use his CLI and/or workbench over the modem. Does such an animal
exists? I know about SerServer, but that is justa CLI based BBS. Any help?

Most Good BBS Programs allow a remote user to drop into an AmigaDOS shell. For example, the Dreaded BBS (my program) has a shell command. You could probably do the same thing with a simple program that answers calls and then does a newshell window AUX: I believe a program called RemoteLogin is just what you're looking for, unfortunately I don't know where to find it. Check the Fred Fish disks. Just make sure you turn off requesters first, or you are stuck if one appears. The RemoteLogin package should have a program to do just that. *** While I'm here, does anyone have docs on the serial.device's SDCMD_QUERY command? Does it just fill in the IO structure with the current serial port statistics? Particularly, does it set/clear the carrier detect bit? Thanks. -Dread -- robinson@elux1.cs.umass.edu
