Howdo Frank
Being fairly new to the Internet and fairly old in age, I'm not too sure
how I managed to setup CAB/STIK and have it run with only an occassional
"Ctl-K"!, however you will find below, the program versions and Stik
settings that I use.
If anyone out there spots a change in any setting that would improve
performance please let me know.
CAB v1.5 STIK v1.12 & CAB.OVL v1.21
# STiK config file
#
# VAR = VALUE :standard format
#
# Non existent vars are 0 (FALSE) by default.
# Variables without "= value" are set to ON
# Variables with " = " but no value are set to 0. (ie: = nothing)
#
# TRUE and ON are acceptable substitutes for 1
# FALSE and OFF are acceptable substitutes for 0
#
# Lines not beginning with an alphabetic character are ignored, but
# this whole file is kept in memory during the session!!
# So if you want to save (a little) memory, trim these comments!
#
# Currently only 100 variables can be specified. Extra VARs are ignored.
#
# The variable names and boolean values are not case sensitive.
# Values may be case sensitive depending on usage.
#
#
# Memory to be reserved. This is for ALL of TCP's internal memory
# requirements, except the space to store the config file.
# This includes all input queues, output queues, DNS cache, etc...
# It must be large enough to cope, plus a bit extra for luck :-)
# If unset, defaults to 50000 bytes.
#
ALLOCMEM = 210000
#
#
# Use the program `listport.tos' to list the serial ports
# available with your hardware configuration. Use the
# port name exactly as it appears in the listport display,
# including correct capitilisation and spaces.
#
# If SERIALPORT is not set, or has an invalid port name,
# the default is to use the first port listed by listport.tos
# So if that port is the one you want to use, you don't need
# to set this variable.
#
SERIALPORT = Modem 1
#
#
# CDVALID Set this variable to FALSE if your modem doesn't assert
# Carrier Detect properly.
CDVALID = TRUE
#
#
# The name of the dial script file to use.
# This entry must be just the pathname, and the file itself
# must be in the \stik_cfg directory on the boot disk.
# Default is dial.scr
#
DIALFILE = dial.scr
#
#
# CLIENT_IP if your provider allocates you a different Ip Address
# whenever you log in, then don't bother with CLIENT_IP
# However, if you have an IP address all to yourself, then put
# it here, in dotted decimal. If your dial script file gets
# your address at login time, it will override this value.
#
CLIENT_IP = 194.222.58.113
#
#
# TCP paramaters. Don't change without advice from a TCP freak :-)
# If left unset, they default to hardcoded (sensible) values.
#
TTL = 64
PING_TTL = 255
MTU = 1500
RCV_WND = 4096
#
#
# Protocol. Specify with which protocol you want to connect to your ISP
# At the moment Protocol=0 is SLIP whilst Protocol=1 is CSLIP
# If this line does not appear stik defaults to SLIP
#
#PROTOCOL = 0
#
#
# Response to incoming TCP packets to unknown ports
# 0 = default (3 = send ICMP)
# 1 = ignore
# 2 = send TCP RST
# 3 = send ICMP `unknown port' response
#
# 3 is the `correct' response, but when connecting to an IRC server
# it attempts to contact your identd on port 113. If it thinks you
# don't have identd, it will most probably reset your IRC session.
# Until I have written an identd, response 1 or 2 should fool at least
# some of the servers.
#
UP_RESPONSE = 2
#
#
# Your username and hostname.
#
# HOSTNAME is the hostname of your computer for this session.
# If your address is dynamically allocated, HOSTNAME will be wrong.
# For now, just set it to your providers hostname (or whatever).
# Try to make it reasonably accurate if possible.
#
# USERNAME doesn't make much sense either until I have an identd
# working. So it doesn't really matter what it is. When I do have
# an identd, this will be your `valid' username for incoming queries.
# Currently, these values are only used when starting IRC sessions.
#
# FULLNAME is pretty obvious, right?
#
USERNAME = denr
HOSTNAME = denr.demon.co.uk
FULLNAME = Denniss Riches
#
#
# The NAMESERVER (ie: DNS or Domain Name Server) *must* be set,
# preferably to a nameserver that your provider recommends.
#
NAMESERVER = 158.152.1.58
#
#
# WWW Proxy for HTML
#
# Uncomment the following two lines if you need to use a proxy-server. If
# you don't know what it is, or don't use HTML, then don't worry about it.
# Don't forget to set them to a proxy server appropriate for you...
#
#HTTP_PROXY=www-cache.demon.co.uk
#HTTP_PROXY_PORT=8080
#
#
# Dial script file for STiK.ACC
#
#
# There are two parts to the connection process.
#
# The first part is initialising the modem, dialing a remote system
# and establishing a connection to a remote modem.
#
# The second part is to log into the remote computer. This will
# involve entering a username and password, selecting SLIP mode,
# and reading the Internet Address that your system will have for
# the duration of the session.
#
#
# Dial Script Part 1 - Establishing the connection.
#
# The first thing to do is to specify the speed of the modem with
# the BAUD_RATE variable.
#
BAUD_RATE = 57600
#
#
# Next you should define how your modem responds to the DTR
# signal. STiK will use the DTR signal to hangup the modem
# if HANGUP = DTR is set. Otherwise set HANGUP to the
# appropriate hangup string for your modem. (eg: HANGUP = ATH)
#
HANGUP = ATH
#
#
# PREFIX sets the dial prefix (ie: ATD, ATDT, ATDP)
#
PREFIX = ATD
#
#
# INIT set the string you can use to initialise the modem.
#
INIT = ATZ1
#
#
# Dialing paramaters.
#
# The dialing parameters are CONNECT_WAIT and REDIAL_DELAY. These
# are times in seconds. CONNECT_WAIT is the amount of time to wait
# for a connection after dialing a number. REDIAL_DELAY is the amount
# of time to wait in between dial attempts.
#
CONNECT_WAIT = 45
REDIAL_DELAY = 5
#
#
# Phone Number(s). PHONE_NUMBER = number. Some providers
# have more than one number you can dial. You can specify
# up to five phone numbers here.
#
PHONE_NUMBER = 08450798666
#
#
# Determining connection success/failure.
#
# Connection success can be determined either by detecting the
# modems Carrier Detect signal (SUCCESS = CDWAIT), or waiting
# for a CONNECT response (SUCCESS = CONNECT) from the modem.
# Failure can be determined by a timeout or a modem response
# such as NO CARRIER, BUSY, NO DIALTONE etc.
# Up to five FAILURE test words can be set.
#
SUCCESS = CONNECT
FAILURE = BUSY
FAILURE = NO CARRIER
FAILURE = NO DIALTONE
#
#
#
# Dial Script Part 2 - Log in to the Service Provider.
#
# The STiK dialer uses the standard `conversational' method for
# login to the provider. This involves searching for certain
# words and sending an appropriate response. The special
# response $GET_IP is used to read the IP address that your
# provider has assigned you for this session. If your provider
# has allocated you a permanent IP Address, then you should set
# it in the default.cfg file and NOT use $GET_IP.
#
# Each step of the `conversation' is specified as a FIND line
# and a RESP line. There can be up to 10 steps. Each FIND
# *must* have a matching RESP and WAIT, even if they have no
# value. (values are put into arrays in the order they appear)
#
# WAIT is the time in milliseconds to pause before each FIND/RESP
# For accuracy, the time should be a multiple of 5.
# (ie: a WAIT = 4 would result in a pause of 0. WAIT = 12 would be 10)
#
# By default each RESP line is sent with a carriage return
# character at the end. If you need to use a line feed character
# instead then put a | at the end of the line. This only works
# if the | is the last character of the line. A / character at
# the end of a line means carriage return, but this is the default,
# so you don't need it.
#
# If you want to send just a Carriage Return, then use RESP /
# If you want to send just a Linefeed, then use RESP |
#
# Note that if neither FIND or RESP have a value, they are ignored,
# but in this case the WAIT (if any) will still pause.
# If FIND has no value but RESP does, the value of RESP will be
# sent immediately or after the WAIT time.
# If FIND has a value but RESP does not, then after the FIND
# the dialer will move straight on to the next WAIT/FIND/RESP
#
#WAIT 1000
#FIND = Enter:
#RESP = 3
#
WAIT 1000
FIND = gin:
RESP = denr
#
WAIT 1000
FIND = word:
RESP = nr14lz
#
WAIT 1000
FIND = ocol:
RESP = slip idle=0
#
WAIT 1000
FIND = denr:
RESP =
