You need to have the user alter their script so that is just goes right
into PPP session after a successful password. The old winsock ppp script
would wait for a PROMPT after the password, and then send PPP and then
wait to see PPP on the screen before it would assume it got logged in
okay. Just tell em to cut out that last expect/send part and go right into
PPP.
