In a message dated 08-21-04, Joe Delahaye said to Holger Granholm: JD>What you may have to do, is allow a third party client like Binkp do JD>the acual sending and calling, and just let PCB do the tossing. Thanks for the hint Joe. However it raises more questions. I don't find any binkp named program on Hobbes nor on any OS/2 CD's I have available (many) in my BBS. Binkleyterm yes but no Binkp. With just a hint to which program to use I gather that there will be some script or .cmd files describing the steps PCBoard should take. Because I still have a hub that I connect to via land line, how do I get PCBoard to understand that it has to connect via TCP/IP to one and via land line to the other. Of course I understand that for the TCP/IP (or Telnet) to be able to connect some .cmd, .rex or .PPE program has to first dial my ISP via presumably the program "DialOtherInternetProvider" that I use to manually call up my ISP but it has to be spawned from PCBoard. All my calls to the hub and host are done automatically while I sleep.
