 Shell
Account – A shell account might be a cheaper way to hook up to
the Internet. Instead of using your modem to directly hook up to
other servers
on the Internet, you use your modem to directly hook up to another host
computer. That host computer then
hooks
you up to the Internet and allows you access to the Internet, sometimes
with
certain restrictions.
