Tell us more about your current setup. Do you already have a Linux box that's connected to the internet? Does your Linux box have a dialup modem? Are the people who will be dialing into your box located in seperate geographical locations?(If not you don't have to setup a dialup situation you can setup an ethernet network). Also, can you tell us your current network setup?

i have a linux redhat 8.0 box connected to dsl with a few static ips
i am planning on putting a modem on the box ...the user will be located in a differant geographical location...currently the setup is comming from the dsl modem/router to the linux box and i have a line going to a seperate router setting up my lan...so what i want to be able to do is install a modem on the linux box plug in a phone line and have one maybe two users be able to dial into the linux box and access the internet...
