- Hello,
-
- I have altered the 'AmiTCP:db/provider.conf' script to get PPP
- online again after a system reboot.
- If anybody knows how to do this with a simple switch please tell me :)
- AmiTCP 4.2 worked by just adding the CD switch with PPP.device.
-
- AmiTCP knows your IPAddress when you give it to it by:
- set IP result
- in the provider.conf script.
- So what I did was save this to disk and reload it after a reboot.
- The file is called 'S:IPAddress'.
- When I manually stop AmiTCP I delete this file :)
- I added the line 'Delete S:IPAddress' to my 'user-stopnet' file in
- AmiTCP:db.
-
- I changed the part of 'set IP result' 'MyIPAddress = result
- set IP MyIPAddress'
-
- Here is my AmiTCP:db/provider script.

- if Exists('S:IPAddress') then do
- call Open(file,'S:IPAddress','R')
- call readln(file)
- set IP result
- call Close(file)
- Say "Still Connected....Continuing"

- MyIPAddress = result
- set IP MyIPAddress
- call Open(file,'S:IPAddress','Write')
- call writeln(file,MyIPAddress)
- call Close(file)
- HideConsole
- end
-
- exit 0; /* Successful exit */
