DR> Hi All;
DR> My ISP is changing equipment and going to I believe a PAP only
DR> setup, no login script (not to sure about the PAP only part yet)
DR> What I'd like to know is how to setup OS/2 with PAP.
DR> I use PPP PPDIAL29.ZIP to connect to my ISP and launch it from the
DR> command line using an .rsp file for the script. I have a file called
DR> pppdoc that talks about PAP but haven't made much sense of it yet.
DR> It talks about a secrets file but without an example I'm afraid
DR> it's still a "secret" to me!
DR> If anyone is connecting Warp 3.0 with an ISP using PAP can you point
DR> me in the right direction? If your not using PPPDIAL could you tell
DR> me what software your using for a PAP connect?
DAC> ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^I did it easily
DAC> with the IAK's DOIP.............just enter all the usual info for a
DAC> ppp connection,but specify NO LOGIN SEQUENCE.......Dial away & it does
DAC> the rest for you!!!!!!!!!!!
Well shoot! Works just like you said it
does! I have an account on NetINS that uses PAP. Tried it and it
worked! Took three tries however. I seem to have had the Dial Other
Internet Providers (DOIP) of the Internet Access Kit (IAK) do that
to me when I used the DOIP (Give you errors like crazy, then just
try it again and all is well). Trouble is I don't use it at all
now.
As I said I launch all my PPP connects from the command line (with
PPPDIAL29 handling my redial and script for me). I do this so that
My BBS front end mailer can drop out call my ISP and FTP FidoNet
mail packets automatically twice per day. So if you know how to do
it with ppp.exe. I'd sure like to know!
But thanks for the Info about DOIP I know of someone that will
benefit from that one!
