    Sorry list. I was wondering why I did not get any responses. The
    omition of an appropriate subject was a mistake. Please, no corrective
    emails, thanks.

    As stated, below, I am trying to find information on possible ways to
    build a dialup access server with multi-modem cards, and possibly a
    passive backplane setup, running FreeBSD.

    Any information would be much appreciated.
