Steve,
You had mentioned that Win95 does not use a script. I would say that this
is incorrect. For I am using Win95 PPP and it is require that one install
the "dscript" applications.
All this does is do the normal portmaster PPP login and start the PPP
protocal translation.
If you had found another way please let us know.
Thank you,
-Dan

You've mentioned this a couple of times - and it really confuses me. The
Portmaster's support PAP and CHAP - this is how most of our users
authenticate themselves.

e.g. with Win95 you simply fill in the user id and password and no script
is required.
