MAC networking ICS question

I currently have a windows wireless network setup in my house, running successfully. I also utilize Internet Connection Sharing with a dial-up modem in the host computer. The client computers have the ability to activate the dial up modem anytime. They also have the option of disconnecting modem anytime using a utility program called " Remote Disconnection Utility ". The program resides in both the host and client machines. It works great and is a freeware utility but only works in windows.
My question is:
Is there a comparable program that works with a Mac? If I am utilizing ICS with a Mac host and a windows client, will the client be able to disconnect the dial up modem at will?

Sorry for being long winded

Looking forward to getting a new G5 Powermac once I am comfortable that all my needs will be met.

Thanks again
Len
