k@h> Um, guys? There *IS* an easier way to configure MSKermit and DOSPPP to work
k@h> together.
Probably is, but Franks method got me there. Its working now :)
k@h> (1) First you'll need to get and install Dospppd .06 beta. Dosppd .05 beta
k@h> has
k@h> bugs that will cause this not to work with MSKermit. Also be sure you are
k@h> using the EPPPD.EXE driver.
Do you happen to know whether theres a new Dospppd version anywhere on
the horizon?
k@h> (2)Add this line to your AUTOEXEC.BAT if you haven't done so already:
k@h> set wattcp.cfg={name of directory where you've installed Dosppd}
k@h> ex: set wattcp.cfg=c:\dosppd\
k@h>
k@h> [3] In the WATTCP.CFG file that Dospppd uses insert the following text
k@h> near
k@h> the begining of the file:
k@h> my_ip=BOOTP
Thanks, but it wouldnt work here. My ISP doesnt use BOOTP login.
k@h> an dial-up BOOTP server that will work with MSKermit and other Wattcp-based
k@h> software such as the DJGPP port of Lynx to MS-DOS.
Which version of that Lynx do you use? I believe theres a number by
different authors.
