I. Installing the software
You should have 4 files:
MacTCP.sea - MacTCP control panel.
macppp2.0.1.sea - MacPPP control panel and preferences.
mailhelp.txt - Help on setting up email.
zipcon.txt - This document.
After extracting the MacTCP.sea and Macppp2.0.1.sea archives by
double clicking on them, you will have several files with folders.
Drag the files MacTCP2.0.4, ConfigPPP and PPP into the System folder
on your hard drive. Now restart your computer for the changes to
take effect.

folder. Please do the following:
1) Double click the MacTCP icon

Click on the 'Default' box.
