IFF direct connect was configured as HOST the last time it was run, then adding anything after the executable name in ths shortcut “c:\windows\directcc.exe connect” will cause the application to start up in host mode bypassing the user input box. This does not work in guest mode. There is also a utility that works perfectly for this called DUNCE. There is a shareware fee associated with this program if you are not affiliated with a university. This utility is also excellent for automating windows 95 dial-up networking!
