I looked at this once, years ago. AFAIR it's not too complicated and I had
no problem with the docs but the part that put me off was the statement that
it didn't work too well anyway :-) Now this may have been related to the
daily limit stuff - you're supposed to be able to set a daily charge limit
after which it won't make new connections, which can be handy when you've
'doze PCs causing grief e.g. %!$#&*^%@# Real Player (had a 'doze PC once
bringing up an ISDN connection - removed all knowledge of the gateway from
its TCP configuration and it was still doing it. Scanned the disk for any
occurence of the gateway's IP address and found it in a Real Player config
file, to which Real Player had presumably copied it when it was initially
configured (the PC's user said "Oh, I didn't install that")
