On a peer to peer network using Win98, is it possible to give control of the modem to machines on the network other than the physical machine the modem is installed in? Therefore, making it possible to connect to the internet from any workstation on the network?

Windows 98 and above come with a facility known as Internet Connection Sharing (ICS). This will enable you to share the internet connection on the computer with the modem, and allow the other computers on the network to access the internet via the ICS "host". If you're not very happy with manually configuring everything, a wizard is provided to create a setup disk for the other computers.
