Can you not do PPP?  PPP is easyer to setup and script for I think.  MacPPP is
FREE and you can find a copy at many locations.  I have a A1200 also with a
GVP 030/50Mzh 8 Megs Fast, using Shapeshifter 3.4 Registered using Netscape
2.1 I think what the newest version number.  I'm using TIA so I can use
whatever I want, SLIP/CSLIP/PPP,  I'm using PPP for Shapeshifter and CSLIP for
the Amiga.  Netscape is pretty stable on my system,  I can even get RealAudio
running at the same time, though just barly. I'm also using System 7.5.1.
