Thanks! I will have a go at this!

If you have Linux with AF_APPLETALK stack enabled then pppd should help you out.

I would need help figuring out what I need in the pppd command. This is what I have that can probably help: Connecting with the internal modem on the iMac G3, internet is connected through the Ethernet port (IP is 192.168.0.174), speed is 38400 baud. Once I get this working I will post a tutorial somewhere.

EDIT: Well I got ARA 3.1... It will only work with 8.1 or higher. I cannot find ARA 3.0, only updaters. I can't seem to find it on the kdx server as well (It might be there, I just can't find anything!).
