Subject: [?] MS-DOS Kermit 3.14 and Dynamic IP Addresses
Message-Id: <D340HB.3yy@indirect.com>

Apparently-To: kermit.misc@watsun.cc.columbia.edu
My Internet service provider recently "upgraded" its terminal servers and
now only supports dynamic IP addressing. I've not yet been able to make
MS-DOS Kermit 3.14 work with any packet driver other than SLIP8250.COM,
and I can no longer use it because it requires static IP addresses.
Has anyone out there found a way to use MS-DOS Kermit in a situation like
mine? Should I try CSLIP? Are there DOS-based PPP drivers that, unlike
Merit's ETHERPPP, will work with Kermit?
I can't (won't!) run Windows.
I _must_ run MS-DOS Kermit. (Because I love it!)
I can't communicate with my ISP. (They're way too arrogant!)
I'm desparate.
Please help.
