They've been trying to do that for years, but the remote sites aren't under their control and there are legacy protocols involved.

I'd look at Digi or Moxa or Perle or Lantronix for a drop-in replacement. These companies typically all measure product support cycles in decades, not months.

Do the remote sites that dial in have IP connectivity? How about putting serial to IP converters at that end of the connection and dropping the POTS?

So currently at Bluecross we have a pool of modems connected to a cisco 2600. What happens is when a connection is received on the modem line, the cisco router initiates an IP connection to an internal server and forwards the data from the serial line to the server. We're looking to move that Serial to IP functionality over to a Linux server so we can retire the EOL routers. Does anyone know of a way to do this? Also if anyone has any good resources for modem connectivity with linux they can forward me I'd appreciate it.
