Remote access to dial-up modem.....

[Deathwing]

There's a dial-up modem on my networked computer, but I want to be able to dial with it from the host computer. Is this possible? If so, how?

I could tell you, but i'd have to kill myself.

I would tell you, but I just killed qualthwar and he was the only one who knew.

Its possible, you have to use "internet sharing", i dont know the details but i've seen it work.

last i heard internet sharing only worked on broadband or cable connections

It works!

My friend has a shared modem connection so i know it works. It's pretty slow, but it works. However, he uses WinXP although I think ME does it as well. I'm sure Linux supports it as well.

It works with dial up..but think about it.. sharing a 56K ewww!!

What OS do you have??

No, IC isn't what I mean. Machine A has a dial-up modem, and I want to dial with it using machine B, and have access to what its dialing on machine B.

the only way that I can think of right off hand is to use Terminal Services.. (in 2K or X/P Corp ed.)..or use PC Anywhere, maybe Laplink gold.. what you need to do is log on to Machine A as an Admin from Machine B..that will give you total control over Machine A...so you need to have the correct users and groups set up...
