----------
The installation bundle has documentation on using selected PPP
drivers with MS-DOS Kermit. We do not support others, not because we are
being picky but I don't know about them or they aren't suitable. So you
can try them but on your own time. MS-DOS Kermit supports DHCP if that
is the way your Internet provider supplies your IP information.
Please do read the release information about MSK; that will hopefully
answer most questions.
