I am working without a budget and I have to link 2 buildings using a buried 100 count telephone line cable. This will be temperary until fiber is purchased. I have no breaks in the line and the distance is 2000 ft. I have tried using a dial up senario but it is too slow for the database system. We are using Novell 4.11 as the NOS. Does anyone have any ideas?

All you will need is a pair of T1 pairgain modems. One on each end, with one set as master on one end and slave on the other. Don't forget to make a cross cable between the wall mount and the pairgain modems, then it should be just a normal cat5 cable from the pairgain to either a hub or straight into the computer. Hope that helps.
