If he's using a standard ISP dialup account, he only has one
globally-unique IP address. You need natd (or ipfilter, or a proxy
application) to make network traffic from the win95 box look like it's
coming from the valid IP.

How many IP addresses were you assigned by your service provider?

And if he has, how do they get mapped to real IP addresses on the Internet
without natd or a similar facility?
