attach: slipsn and this file
text:
I have FreeBSD-2.1.0 and I am having great problems getting ppp past my IP
203.44.26.5. This server gives dynamic addressing. The server will not accept
slip-attach. Says not supoorted. ppp gets to dial in but I cannot get my login
and passwd in to get to the server menu or past it. I can run ftp from the 
server, but this is useless with large files. I have been trying to get netscapeonto my machine (which is standalone-no network) but get thrown off because of  no activity my end. It is copying the file to the server. The attached script   works for Win95. Could you help me with a rudimentary script to get me on my    way. Thanks in advance.
