    I hope I understand you here. I want to use the modem connected to my
    linux machine, from a different windows machine (which has no modem).
    You are saying that is not possible?

    My thinking was, the modem presents a serial interface, just like a
    keyboard or a mouse. So probably it shouldn't be too difficult to
    realize a connection (or is it?).

    Does anyone know if this has ever been tried?

    Guus.
