Sorry for taking so long to follow up on everyone's
prompt replies! Basically, I think I've misinterpreted
the situation. I can get on Telysis without any script
at all. The promblem appears to be with the DNS
servers, not the logon. Once I logon I can only go to
www.utexas.edu. All other sites come up blank. On top
of that, the UT site loads extremely slowly, which, I
think, has something to do with the routing. Any case,
I'll be studying up on the other, non-KPPP, programs
so I can better utilize the scripts on the site. You'd
think UT would have some official documentation on the
issue . . . perhaps somebody is benefiting from this ?
($$$)
Thanks for the feedback!
