Hi Petric:

PF> I have a similar problem. What about a PPP program which

PF> The PPP.EXE provided with Warp Connect always want to handle the
PF> port  himself. There is no option to let PPP to take over an  handle
PF> of a COM-port (connection established, carrier  detected). 

Don't be so sure.  Check out TSERVE10.ZIP on the hobbes ftp site. 
TSERVE opens a port and passes it to PPP or Maximus (don't know what
the other options are.  I've also heard that it came through the
fidonet file distribution recently.  Check out this program.  It may do
what you want, or it may give you some ideas for your own.  In my case,
it gave me both.


Best wishes,

Tom
