OK, you must be desperate nick ;)

AFAIK, the whole point of proxy/gateway software is to negate any
interactive part of a dialup process. I could be wrong, but I have never
seen an interactive part in any such software ( although saying that there
is bound to be something out there)

Why not just use the standard dialup built into the client?
