Call BA using your terminal program.  Make note of what you
have to type in to get the thing to go into ppp mode. Then
go to the OS/2 DOIP and type that same stuff into the login
window and save.  Use "\r" for carriage returns after each
input.  Also make sure you type in the "Domain Name server
into DOIP" before starting.  Hostname is usually your ISP's
name with "net" behind it.  I.E. concentric.net, msn.net,
ibm.net etc...
Here's my logon entries in DOIP for one of my ISP's...
\r
\r
fsexton@ppp
\r
my_password
\r
Works for me on many IPS's.
Notice: This particular ISP allows me to use the "@ppp"
with my logon to start a ppp session.  Some ISP's just want
you to type "ppp" after your login.  Just depends.  Also
note that I have one extra carriage return at the top.  This
particular ISP's needs that.  No special reason.  Just
check whatever works and then use it.
