If your machine has a dedicated IP address, then you could
enter that address or your machine's domain name (thelyons.mcmail.com).
If your ISP is 195.44.0.12, you're address would be 195.44.0.???
(replace the question marks w/your machine's address).
Assuming your machine's address were 195.44.0.100, you would
type 195.44.0.100:0 into the connection dialog.
All this assumes that you have a dedicated, static IP address.
If you dial in tho', you prob'ly have a dynamic address that's
assigned when you connect, so the address above would change each time.
Under w95 you can determine your IP address by running WINIPCFG.EXE
(Easiest is to just type 'winipcfg' into the 'Run...' dialog from the
'Start' menu.)
hope this helps,
