Hi Charles. The problem is I haven't found a way to have 4DOS start two
4OS2 sessions, one running PPP.EXE and another one to run VSOUP.EXE
after PPP.EXE has successfully connected to my ISP.

I can call 4OS2 session using HSTART.EXE now. However, I would like to
switch to a 4DOS method if I could somehow get 4DOS to spawn 4OS2
sessions from a batch file.
