Actually, despite what you may hear here, I have a few of these exact setups
and they have worked very well - for years. The only time I have had to
service them is when the ISP changes all their internal IP addresses without
telling anyone. All you need to do is setup an SCO printer with device =
/dev/null, then paste in the interface script ICE.TCP gives you.

Does your email address shown work? I'll get in touch with you if you need.
Otherwise RTFM :)
