LOL have fun. On Mon, 15 Jul 2002 09:32:09 GMT Ben spewed into the bitstream: ~I can tell that the Bell-Labs guys don't use PPP dialup much. Not a ~very refined interface for PPP...(no offense intended) Shouldn't it ~at least use a configuration file to specify phone number, username, ~password, baud rate, etc. then one could simply use something like: ~ip/ppp where a seperate config file could be used per ~host? (Similar to BSD's ppp command) It's much easier that way than ~specifying that many command switches! ~ -- (o_ //\ V_/_ Michael H.
