According to the accompanying txt file it is the 0.6 version. and includes PAP/CHAP. I cannot check this claim because I don't have this method. As I remember somebody is working on minimizing Arachne so I think it would be good to look into the reason why the two differ so much in size. Arguable, you need to be small to work on a HPLX. I exchanged the Arachne epppd.exe with the small epppd.exe from Goin'Postal and there was no difference in work. Perhaps could the originator of Goin' Special, Steven D. Lawson give us some help. As far as I know he is still on this list. He was the fellow who gave Michael his HPLX200 during Michael's visit to the USA. ar>>Is it possible to make this ar>>packet size smaller for Arachne in order to overcome the connection ar>>difficulties and line noise problems that I have with Arachne.

Sounds interesting but I real;y do not have an idea what FIFO trigger level is and what it is supposed to do. Could you explain it in plain ;-) english. Windows: Just another pane in the glass.
