There is a way to get netzero to work with Linux, I think, at least at one
time.  Come to think of it, last time I connected to netzero through
linux, I could connect, but couldn't even ping my gateway. Must be using
some weird proprietary protocol.

If you can see your modem from linux, there's no reason that windows
wouldn't also be able to see it (if configured through winsetup) and get
dial-up networking to work in linux, unless the vnet stuff doesn't support
the dial-up interfaces, which is possible.  But you still wouldn't be
able to use the internet from Linux, unless you did proxies; telnet, ssh,
etc wouldn't work unless you can get win98 to do internet connection
sharing.
