[foxboro] dial-in to 51 series box?

We're  looking at remote acces to an AW51x [x=B,D,E, or whatever alphabet
soup they're up to now ;)] from another unix box.  The most natural way to
do this seems to hang a modem off the AW, and set up a dial-up account.
Does anyone have either pointers to the "how to" descriptions, and the
"gotcha" list.  Or, does anyone have a better way of doing this?  In my
naivete, I've assumed that dial-up ppp with X protocol compression was the
way to go, but I'm open to suggestions.

Cheers

Jason
