Yes, but RemoteAccess did take some command-line parameters (such as the user's connected speed, etc.) because it was possible that another program would have answered the modem first (such as FrontDoor, a FidoNet mailer), and in such a case, it was useful to be able to leave the modem connected and have RemoteAccess take over. That still wasn't local mode.
