    Yet this server allows my wife (Win98) to log in (we share the account)
and is happy to accept Arachne for DOS logging in with epppd.

    Nope.  It is actually three alpha characters and four numeric
characters, all lower case.

   I have four (4) different ISP dial/logins set in eznet.conf, set
against 
 
0
0
0
0  etc

1
1
1  etc


2
2
2  etc


3
3
3  etc


    and each is called by four little scripts that say eznet up 1/2/3/4

It WAS all working perfectly until my main ISP "IMPROVED" the server. 
:(


Regards,
        Ron
