Ramesh, had tried that one back in the day, didn't seem to work. :o(

Paul,

When I was on dialup (three years up until Jan), I ran four systems via a
hub and using ICS, each system's Guest account could gain access to the
Internet just by clicking on it. Independently, without anyone else being
logged or online via any machine.

If you are wanting the Guest account to have Internet access, after you have
dialed in, use this edit:

And how do you configure just that one user rather than the whole group
they're in? I keep asking this question and have yet to get any kind of
response on how to actually go about it.
Seems to me everything revolves around "groups" and I've yet to find someway
to indicate "just this user" that doesn't seem to require purchasing some
3rd party tool.
