If this line did not exist at first you will have to go back and
run the mc scripts to generate all the proper 'line noise' codes
later in the script.

Well then put that domain in the access table.  Not the USERs
domain but the domain of their ISP.  Of course if that is Earthlink
you have opened up a very large hole.  In the case of a national
provider then you could open up a block of IPs that the user
might be assigned dialing into that modem bank.  If the far user is
on a cable modem then >typically< that IP would be in one
/24 ip block [formerly known as Class C].  

The you add the first 3 octets into the access list and rebuild
access.db
