My wife has an old Macintosh she's mighty attached, and I want to see
if I can attach it to my machine to take advantage my internet
connection. Her's is a Performa, not ethernet ready, and the cost of
ethernet for that machine and the national debt are about equal.
Is it possible to set up a ppp connection between our two machines
(she's got the appropriate control panel and I have rh6.2) over modems
you normally plug into phone lines but instead plugged back to back via
an ordinary UTP line? The catch is that no phone system means no dial
tone and not dialing the phone or answering. Does anyone know how to
set modems up like that -- it's certainly not the norm, at least not in
home computing.
Thanks,
Rob
