Has anyone had any luck in getting a sound blaster card to work full duplex?
This would seem to be the first step in getting a workable low cost secure
phone line.
Also How about a half duplex secure voice link for the internet? Heck
you could call anyone up if they are logged in and were equipped, crypto
optional.

If you have a Sparc or a DEC, there's a program called "vat" whcih
does this, full-duplex over IP. Unfortunately, I don't remember where
to get it (lbl?), and archie isn't responding.

vat is available from ftp.ee.lbl.gov. There's no source at the moment
but there are binaries for different architectures. (And the dynamically
linked SunOS 4.1.x versions do work for Solaris 2.x)
vat is intended for use as a IP multicast multi-user chat program, but I
believe that it is useable for point-to-point communication also. Using
it for IP Multicast may require kernel patches (depending on your OS).
[I have no connection with vat other than I use it for MBONE stuff
here at Washington University]
