If you mean network users, then that's what we use.
We have Mac, Win and Unix users that run ppp. Due to security and
billing we use dialback.
For the Mac users we are using MacTCP/MacPPP and some relatively
simple dial scripts.
We have a guy that has just yesterday set up a win pc with FTP
softwares ONet to do the same. I believe there s a free package for
windows called trumpet that should do what you want.
The unix users (all two of us ;-) use dp-4.0, with both dialback and
dial on demand + routed networks.
