When I first looked at this, the second suggestion looked good.
The isp and modem part I feel is not needed because some people would be on
a LAN some with a modem attached, so for software to run on all pc's it
should use the connection normally used.
All that would be needed is "connect username:[EMAIL PROTECTED]" for
connecting to restricted areas on the net because it would use the normaly
user name/password to get on the net. Or "connect/dial
username:[EMAIL PROTECTED] 5551212" for one computer to talk to the server
(non internet).
