If you want independant use of the modem between 2 machines
so that they access the device at different times,
have a look in the comp.os.linux.announce news archive 
for a daemon that was presented there to allow access to
the modem from another system.

works on linux and boxes inflicted with the gates virus.
You need to install network cards in both boxes, of course!

Personally, I use IP_masquerade...
