    Thanks Sid,
    I didn't see anything regarding dial-on-demand, so I thought I'd ask
    No, it certainly wouldn't be good to leave the connection up by accident,
    and it *would* happen, as the users are not too computer literate. ;-) I
    think I'll play with it and see if I can come up with something. If I do,
    I'll post it.
    Thanks again,
    Tom
