Pretty slick!

Correct me if I'm wrong, but if you don't specify the IP addresses at the end of the pppd command wouldn't you, in theory, be able to use phonenet connectors and use this technique with multiple vintage macs simultaneously?

If I understand this correctly "192.168.1.102:192.168.1.245" statement limits you to a 1:1 relationship. However, if this is not specified the iMac (in this case) should obtain the address that you manually entered into the peer (Duo).

It's a theory anyway... I could be wrong, but it wouldn't hurt to try.
