I have K95, patched to 1.1.12, running on Win95 non-OSR2.
I invoke the K95 dialer, and double-click on an entry configured for
foxtrot.rahul.net. My stock windows PPP dialer connection screen pops up,
I hit enter, and my login is accomplished byt the K95 login script.
I also sometimes invoke the Internet Explorer first, which causes the
dialup, and then got to a Kermit session.
I have not experienced a problem in either case, except where the Frame
Relay link between the modem server and the ISP is slow. Sometimes the
Kermit login will timeout before the password prompt is received. At
that point, I just "c", and finish the login manually.
I would consider K-95 not to be at fault in this example as soon as the
dialer window appears.
I could believe that world.std.com is overloaded.
Next time this happens, try rahul.net, with a login of guest, instead.
