Under MacOS 9 it was possible to turn on a PPP server which
was built into the OS. My mac was connected via Airport to the internet
and my Palm to the Mac via a serial cable. Setting the Mac
to null modem the Palm could connect and access the internet
using PPP.

Does anyone know how to do this on MacOS X?

It seems that with internet sharing in 10.2 something like
this should be possible.

If this was possible it would have the great advantage of
letting me connect to Avantgo without need of an OSX Avantgo
conduit which is likely to never happen!
