ds3, short for dialup service 3, is a modem sharing server for Linux/UNIX. It allows no direct access to the modem/ISDN-adapter. Instead it provides a text based interface which can be accessed via telnet or by a client. Currently a java client, a gtk based client and a small gnome applet are available. Features of ds3 include user authentification and scripts or programs may be lauched through events created by users or triggered by an interval.
