Trumpet Winsock
#9

I have recently been trying (and it is *very* trying!) to get Trumpet
Winsock set up on the PC card side, as I have not used the PC browsers
to any great extent. I have successfully downloaded and installed it,
following the instructions, and at the moment I can get it to connect to
Demon, but not complete the LOGIN script.

I suspect that the entries I have to amend are the domain= and
$Username= in the TRUMPWSK/INI file.

Can anyone who has succeeded with this for a Demon account please point
me in the right direction?

TIA.

It's a long time since I set mine up (or used it) but looking at what I
have you should set domain= to fingask.demon.co.uk and $Username= to fingask

I don't recall doing these manually but rather through the File/Setup menu.
