Try pcMacTerm from the same publishers (DMA)!  Only trouble is, it is
hard-coded for Hayes Modems, and our digital PBX doesn't know what AT
commands are )-: --should work fine for your standard modems, though.
I have dialed in from my IIsi to my Compaq at work and worked on its
MS-DOS apps from within pcMacTerm before...

ALSO:  try setting PC Anywhere to "VT100" dial-in and use your
VT100-emulating terminal program!  I've used Mac241 for that as well!
