This MUST be doable, it's such an obvious idea :) Let's say back in the day I had a modem connected to one of my VMS boxes, would not sharing it over LAT be pretty obvious? What pays to remember is that once you had LAT and DECservers, you didn't use serial ports on your VAX anymore, especially not on a site where you had several VAXen. You *obviously* had DECservers if you were using LAT, and you *obviously* wanted to put the modem on the DECserver if you had one, and *especially* if you wanted to access the modem from several machines. So yes, it's an obvious idea, and it had an obvious answer. It's just you who are trying to do things backwards... :-) Johnny
