Hello Winston - 

BR>> I connect using PPPD and then am able to run Lynx, FTP

WS> Me too! I am having trouble getting DOS LYNX to run in
WS> anything but local mode.... Which version of PPPD ? CyrWin?
WS> CMU EPPPD? 

Techinically PPPD is a *nix program (dialer and PPP launcher).
EPPPD (the 'E' is significant here) is the DOS clone of the
*nix PPPD. LSPPP is the other 'mainstream' binary to dial and
launch a DOS PPP packet connect to an ISP. One more letter for
EPPPD or two more letters for LSPPP will really help keep replies
ontrack? 

"DOS Lynx" can be DOSLYNX that Fred MaCall has recently updated
or it can be the DOS version of LYNX known as LYNX386? LYNX,
again, is technically the name for the *nix binary textmode browser.
;-)

WS> LS PPPD? Which release of DOS LYNX ? Which are the
WS> important set up symbols for configuration/initialization
WS> (dialup/dsl/netbootp) ? Thanks 

Setup for the two DOS versions of 'lynx' are totally different
from each other. Which one are you using (at this time)?

The setup for DOS PPP connects can vary and is determined as
much by the ISP you try to connect to as by hardware or other
software. :-\
