[Questions about PPP setup fields elided] I'll mail you a MacPPP set-up guide this evening. Generally speaking the PPP values set by default are correct (well, they match those used by DOS KA9Q anyhow...) MacTCP needs setting as a node on a class b subnet, but all this is in the set-up guide. > I have my name servers set up, and that seems to work. > I have trouble getting past the LCP/Network dialogues when > connecting - If I do get in, it tends to stay working! I think it's just something with this implementation, that it can take a while to negociate the session properly. Make certain nthat you see the 'HELLO' before pressing the 'OK, Connect' button. -Alan. -- Alan Staniforth ** alan@bones.demon.co.uk ** alan_s@cix.compulink.co.uk 'By Grand Central Station, or rather under it, in the Oyster Bar, we sat down and wept." -- Victoria Glendinning
