 For dial-in this should be a bogus IP number which
will be filled in by the login.cmd script

[Stuff deleted]
What's the contents for login.cmd?. This must be set up to capture
the assigned IP number when you go into slip mode on minklink.

Run tcpman.exe first and then do dialler/login on the menu.

Subject: How to change sound in PC Eudora?

Not much to explain--I would like to change the .wav file that PC Eudora plays
upon getting new mail, but I can't seem to find it.  I've looked in the online
configuration, and in the eudora.ini file, but I just can't find it.  Can you
change it?  Thanx for your help, and if it's real obvious, don't rub it in too
much.

It won't help you this time, but a technique that can be very useful is to
install windows (and apps) on a drive or drive that doesn't really exist
except as a "subst".  For example, use the subst command to "create" a drive
F: (or G:, or whatever) that is actually tied to physical drive C: (or D:,
or whatever).  Now if you have to move windows from one physical drive to
another, all you have to do afterwards is change the subst statement and,
poof!, windows happily churns along using the new physical drive--it still
thinks it's using the same drive as before, since all its references are
tied to the subst'd drive name.

Subject: Trumpet sucks.  Anyone else?

I always use the Trumpet dialler to get into better programs like my ftp, telnet,
and Mosaic (which is just beautiful, in my opinion, despite the bugs).  However, the
dialler is just so damn buggy that I sometimes feel like taking a shotgun to the
computer.  Do I have any options here?
Any help would be useful.

Try something like this:

set DTR off
sleep 1
set DTR on
output ATH\13
input 10 OK\r
display \nDisconnected.\n

The only current solution is to use an external dialler that can do
busy-redial.  Peter's reportedly working on an enhanced internal dialler.

Can Trumpet all together, (although I kind of like the news reader)
and get "The Windows Internet Tour Guide" by Michael Fraase,
Ventana Press, ISBN 1-56604-081-7, for about $25.
It comes with FREE Chameleon slip software that is
ROCK SOLID STABLE. And a whole chapter devoted
to installing and configuring the software, And real nice
FTP, Telnet, and Mail apps, And it works with about 15
other apps which I have tested. (including Mosaic).

The DOCS sound real nice, but could I use it on top of a PPP driver if I
wanted to?  I need to use PPP to connect to my service here (MERIT).

  I mean I want WFW 3.11 to do the SLIP.  I was thinking of switching to the
WFW drivers provided I can do the following:  SLIP, run Winsock apps, and use
MSMAil.  It really isn't a big priority to do so, I just wanted to have it all
integrated.  I use Winsock now and it is cake to do SLIP.  My service provides
PPP and SLIP so it's no biggie either.

   Actually, I would like your opinion on this.  Is it worth doing?  I am not
unhapy with what I'm doing, just thought it might help out in the long run.

  Well, I have tried them all.  I usually keep on top of FTP's releases, and
  noted that they released a beta just a few days ago.  So, I grabbed that one
  (Winsock.dll v1.12 beta 8 (v1.1 WSA) FTP Software Inc. (compiled Apr 7
  1994)) and it survived 3 consecutive "ls" commands before locking the ftp
  session as before.  Small step forward, but for now I am going with Trumpet.

  Well I know it is on CICA now (ftp.cica.indiana.edu) in the
/pub/pc/win3/uploads area.

  But, you may want to try ftp.starnet.com.  It is also there.
