assistant: * Copied (from: os2) by Charles Bowman using timEd/2 1.10+.
Had the strangest thing happen this weekend, I did a virgin
re-installation of Warp 4 w/FP5 and now I can't access anything
using my previously working In-Joy setup.  It dials, connects
and negotiates but doesn't allow anything beyond that.  What is
funny is that DOIP works fine and allows me access to anything
on the internet.
I have not setup (knowingly) anything but basic components for
accessing the internet via modem.
Please help, this is driving me a little nuts. <g>

Is the only way I found to make Netscape/2 work with the new Java 1.1.4
Even the Nescape/2 "beta refresh" of December won't work with java 1.1.4
God only knows why.
But with NJBRIDGE it works !!
Since it looks like a file hard to find, I can upload it somewhere.
Only : where ?

Errlog.cmd is similar using a different logfile.
Did you create a readonly file name PAP.SCT and placed it in your
%ETC% dir? Mine is \TCPIP\ETC.
You need to have a file in the %ETC% directory called
"pap.sct" which has the necassary username/passwords
for a PAP type login. Make sure it's read-only.

No advice, just empathies. I've had the same experiences with In-joy
from the beginning. DOIP works, but In-joy does as you say, negotiates
(unsuccesfully) and then, nada. I've tried about every combination of
settings (except the one that works), with Warp4 FP1-4. Doesn't matter
if it's a PAP or text script connection, same result. So, I'm also
eagerly awaiting any responses that you might get :(

This looks like one of the recent topics on the In-Joy mail list.  Try

Another funny with a new install is that some sequences set the ETC

first got on the net and began playing with both DOIP and Injoy, but
I've reinstalled a couple of times since then (formatting the boot
drive), and have never had to do anything special since. And I just
searched that drive and found one resolv, but no resolv2.
