Miniterm.exe uses information from arachne.cfg (no other file is needed)
Core.exe creates pppdrc.cfg using information taken from arachne.cfg and
from the output of miniterm.exe
Epppd uses information from pppdrc.cfg (no other file is needed)
One piece of information which epppd.exe *absotutly must* have......
"base port address". (it *will not* work without it).
If the base port address is not shown in pppdrc.cfg, then epppd.exe
looks at the BIOS reporting table to find the address of the com port
which *is* shown in pppdrc.cfg
If the com port is not shown in pppdrc.cfg, then the base port address
*must* be shown. (if it's not, then epppd.exe has no way of knowing
which port address to use)
