- Zoom away to ftp.wustl.edu and skip into mirrors/amiga/comm/tcp and
- put your paws on the AmiTCP program. The 4.0 is a demo of it that
- works. If your provider supports ppp-connections get the ppp-device,
- there is an evaluation version in the tcp directory. Then unpack
- the archives, read the docs, re-read the docs, install them and
- after that post articles here like: Help!!! How shall I get
- AmiTCP with PPP to work?? (JK ;-) ). Those are the basic programs,
- AmiTCP comes with ftp (ncftp, I got the AmiFTP program from aminet,
- it is _very_ nifty), telnet and other needful things. When you have
- this running just hunt the comm, net, mail, tcp directories at
- aminet for other nifty tcp-programs. Try Grapevine..it is a good
- IRC program. And...register AmiTCP and the ppp-device, I strongly
- recommend them.
