STAC has absolutely no relation or knowledge of what the underlying link
is. You can run it over POTS, ISDN, CT1, or a tin-can and a string
(although I'm not aware of any IETF standards covering that last one..)
;-)
The client software just has to support it. Windows 95/NT supports it
with the latest updates installed. If you dial in with another router
such as an OR using the async interface on it, you can do STAC just fine.
I'm not sure about MacOS. Linux should have some patches that do it, or
if not it will soon.
