    OS 9 or OSX?
    OS9= Control panels - tcp/ip if I remember
    OSX= "Internet Connect"

    Madman he is, yes.
    OSX is dead easy if he wants to do that though!

    Control Panels => TCP/IP
    Make sure "connect via" is PPP
    DNS servers are optional.

    Control Panels => Remote Access
    Enter phn number, username & password

    Press connect to dial.


    ...and that's it.

    There's a control strip module for remote access, so it's easiest to dial via that.
