---------------------------------------------------------------------
During the last 4-5 months I have worked on a Dialer for OS/2. The Dialer has
been written from scratch, but uses the TCP/IP kernel of OS/2.
The dialer as it is now, supports PPP and only a text mode Terminal Mode. It
can function as a PPP server as well, but I will not make that product
available (unless someone has some really special needs).
The Dialer has support for the following functionalities and interfaces:
SLIP, (available, but considered ADD-ON functionality)
(C)SLIP, (available, but considered ADD-ON functionality)
PPP
and on the communication side:
Asynchronous,
X.25 (Eicon), (available, but considered ADD-ON functionality)
CAPI2.0, (available, but considered ADD-ON functionality)
CAPI1.1, (available, but considered ADD-ON functionality)
TCP/IP (available, but considered ADD-ON functionality)
I do take beta-testers and wishes for development.
The functionalities that are coded, will be made available when the Dialer is
fully designed and completed regarding asynchronous use and PPP.
A PM version is being built and will be available within a month or two..

If you want to beta test or have special wishes, give me a mail at
