What do you mean "none of the isps will logon with dos any more"?

All ISP's work fine with DOS, except "ad server" cr*p, of course,
which only work with Windoze.

If you have a problem using Arachne with an ISP (using a _real_
modem of course, not a WinModem), ask for help at one of the
new Arachne mailing lists, I'm sure your problem will be solved
promptly.

Joe.
