Replacing script with PAP

Issue: We now do not require PPP connections to use a script. Document: 00003
Created: Jun 26, 98
Applies to: Macintosh using FreePPP. Modified: Jun 26, 98

Glinx always allowed different types of connections, PPP, SLIP etc.. Our servers now will not only do scripts to allow different connections but allow what is called PAP which automatically connects with PPP.
 

If you have "Innovative On-line" software now is a good time to get Glinx's new software:

Use FreePPP as usual.

Now, when you use FreePPP it will not use a script to log you in, you may not even notice the difference.
