If you were using TCP/IP one possibility is to use PPP or SLIP to
connect over serial port (modem).
PPP/SLIP software is operating system dependend. OS/2 Warp has these
included in the standard package. Windows XX does not include these,
you have to buy them separately. Don't know about unixes.
SQL*Net does not care whether the connection is established using hard
wired connections or PPP/SLIP. Of course you will notice the
difference in connection speed if you are using slow modem.
