- 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!
