The current release (dosppp05) also works with kermit, you simply need to use
the class 6 driver (PPPD) and not the class 1 driver (EPPPD). You only won't
have BOOTP unless the remote supports it. I am not aware of a WATTCP app that
requires a class 1 driver, so you could run all of them under PPPD. Actually
many WATTCP apps should work ok with EPPD (I have checked talk), because they
are more lenient than Kermit. Dosppp06 works ok with Kermit too, has VJ
compression and CHAP, and will be out RSN now. IMHO that's the best free DOS
PPP driver available.
