Here's a quick rundown on setting up PPP.EXE and Kali for a PPP connection.
For complete details on each program, see the related README files. Software
may be obtained from:
ftp://ftp.axxis.com/pub/kali/
ftp://ftp.internexus.net/pub/kali/
Sample files and locations:
[C:\NET\PPP]
---------------DIAL.BAT------------------
@ECHO OFF
ppp /c 2 /d script /s 57600
The "/c 2" tells PPP to dial out on COM2, which defaults to IRQ3. If your com
port is on another IRQ than the default, specify /I X where X is the IRQ
number. You also need to specify the base address of the com port as well.
The "/d script" tells PPP to use the file DIAL.PPP to obtain login
information.
The "/s 57600" tells PPP to connect at 57600 (I've got a 14.4 modem and 16550
UART).
---------------DIAL.PPP-------------------
send "AT &F2\r" ;modem init string, data comp/err corr enabled; check
(no blank line) ;your modem manual
recv 3000 "OK\r\n" ;wait 3000 milisecs for OK response from modem
send "atdt1234567\r" ;dial your provider; the \r is for RETURN
recv 60000 "login:" ;wait 60000 milisecs for login prompt from provider*
send "username\r" ;send your username and RETURN
recv 10000 "Password:" ;wait 10000 milisecs for password prompt*
send "password\r" ;send your password and RETURN
*These should be the exact prompts your provider is sending you.
[C:\KALI]
----------------KALI.CFG------------------
Nickname = Your Nickname ;Killer, Cobra, etc.
Alert ;Sounds alarm when users are connecting
; serial = ;reg'd version info
; key = ;reg'd version info
; port = ;reg'd version info
----------------WATTCP.CFG-----------------
;
; WATTCP Configuration File for Kali
;
my_ip=000.000.000.000 ;your IP address; see readme file for info on BOOTP
netmask=255.255.255.0 ;subnet mask*
nameserver=000.00.00.00 ;domain nameserver
gateway=000.00.00.00 ;your gateway ip address
*This is what kept me from connecting at first. Even though my provider is on
a subnet of 255.255.255.224, I had to enter the above subnet in order to
connect. If you are still having problems connecting, try 255.255.0.0. (??)
Here is the process of getting logged in and playing:
CD\NET\PPP
DIAL.BAT
<Your modem should be dialing your provider; wait for automatic login. If you
don't get logged in automatically, you should be able to just type in your
username and password. You will get a message "IP ADDRESS SET TO NN.NN.NN.NN".
You are now connected to your provider, and will be at a DOS prompt. Test
your connection with PING or TCPINFO.>
CD\KALI
KALI 00.00.00.00 ;If you're connecting to the Kali servers, enter
;their IP address here. Two known server IP's are
;204.96.20.10 and 199.233.91.1
or type
KALI ;If one or more people know your IP address, this
;will start KALI with you as the server. They
;simply type KALI YOUR.IPA.DDR.ESS and you should
;hear a beep and see their Nickname/IP address when
;they are connected.
CD\GAMES\DESCENT
DESCENT
Select Multiplayer. Someone should "START NET GAME", others "JOIN".
Determine this before starting DESCENT.
Good luck!
