Re: 2nd Try: Ctrl-Alt-Minus on Laptop

Hi - here is the combination that works for me - Ctrl-Alt-Fn-P. The Fn key changes the P to -. This is on a Compaq Armada. Your keyboard may have the - on a different key or may not have the function key to access control items on the laptop. Joe On Mon, 14 Sep 1998, Kent West wrote: > Anyon

Re: diald / ppp routing problems
