You can change TERM type under bash with "TERM=vt100; export TERM" either at the prompt or as part of a config file. In order to get the other account using the ppp connection, check the permissions on things like the ppp program you use (if not kernel ppp) and the modem device. If you have an account that already works, look at what groups it is in, and add the other account to the relevant group. I can't remember specifically what group the modem device should belong to, but as long as the new account is part of that group, it should work, provided the group has read-write access on the device.
