RE: Modem Pool



Hi,

Thank you for posting in SBS newsgroup.

>From your description, I understand the issue to be: you want to let the 5
computers to dial in to another companies system and want to know if SBS
can do so. If I have misunderstood your concerns, please do not hesitate to
let me know.

Actually Modem Sharing is not available in SBS 2003 due to some security
reasons. During an upgrade from SBS2000, it will be removed as part of the
setup. For a list of services installed with SBS 2003, see:

There are some third party modem sharing products available, for example,
ModemShare Millennium:
