With 96kbps with a LAN 10/100mbps of about 10 workstations and 4 remote access users connecting using dial-up of 56kbps modem while the dial-up only allow for mail retrieval and sending.

Why do you think the connect speed of the remote access is slow as 9.6kbps dialing into the server with intermitted break if there is data to be send or downloaded.

Does it mean that in the LAN environment those who can browse and access mail have consume the usage of the bandwidth leaving those from remote site with lesser bandwidth usage?

Or it is the clarity of the telephone line for dailing that is distorted therefore not allowing for an optimum usage of the 56kbps for modem dial-up?

What data can be send on a 9.6kbps bandwidth from a remote site of about 330 KM distance using dial-up?.

Thanks

NAME

       dialups - list of terminal devices requiring a dial-up password

SYNOPSIS

       /etc/dialups

DESCRIPTION

       dialups	is  an	ASCII file which contains a list of terminal devices  that require a dial-up password. A dial-up password is an additional
       password required of users who access the computer through a modem or dial-up port.  The correct password must be entered before  the  user
       is granted access to the computer. The set of ports that require a dial-up password are	listed in the dialups file.

       Each entry in the dialups file is a single line of the form:

	      terminal-device

       where

       terminal-device	       The  full  path	name  of the terminal device that will require a dial-up password for users accessing the computer
			       through a modem or dial-up port.

       The dialups file should be owned by the root user and the root group.  The file should have read and write permissions for the owner (root)
       only.

EXAMPLES

       Example 1: A sample dialups file.

       Here is a sample dialups file:

       /dev/term/a
       /dev/term/b
       /dev/term/c
