Originally no it did not, it was a COMMERCIAL heavy duty phone
application server like those in the biggest of call centers and such.
(which means with a 80 card you could have the best voice mail system on
the block) <big grin>

However, there is another part of Bayonne called GNUComm that is doing
lots in way of telephony.  I believe the last release of Bayonne or the
one coming up will support normal modems.  I am of course biased as
Bayonne is actually a sub project of GNU Enterprise as is GNUComm. ;)
