If you are using uka_ppp AND arachne, could you send me a copy
of your uka_ppp configuration files? (or post them if appropriate)
I am trying to get these two to work together (uka_ppp to dial
and establish a ppp link, and arachne for the browser).
uka_ppp dials and seems to establish a connection, but I dont
know how to switch over to arachne. When I just start it up,
it says there is no ppp running.

Arachne ought to see the packet driver. Or does UKA_PPP dial, do the email and
news, and then hang up? Arachne would have to know, in ARACHNE.CFG, where to
find MYIP, REMIP, etc, in environment variables or file such as WATTCP.CFG.
UKA_PPP dialer wants to tie to COM1 despite address 0x2e8, which is COM4. So I
use a separate dialer with EPPPD & CHAT. This is OK for DOS Lynx 386 and
Arachne, but when I am ready to use UKA_PPP, I have to edit the MYIP line in
WATTCP.CFG, either with text editor or sed. UKA_PPP apparently does not
understand environment variables, %MYIP%, $MYIP or $(MYIP) does not work.
WATTCP.CFG environment variable must be either undefined or point to UKA_PPP
directory. It is a danged nuisance, sometimes I forget to run SETUKA.BAT, which
among other things sets WATTCP.CFG environment variable to UKA_PPP directory,
and then UKA_PPP bombs, sometimes setting the date back 6 years or ahead 94
years.
Dion, you use Mutt 1.0us? What OS does that run under? Now I hope I remember
to see at http://www.mutt.org. Latest I remember was Linux/Unix and OS/2 Warp
versions.
I see you are in Scotts Valley CA: Borland/Inprise town?
