Hello,                    (read.me  Feb/21/1998)


                Dial IP 1.50b5

This program was originally written to make a connection to the internet thru ppp.exe, check for email, let me know if I had any, and disconnect.  It was/is supposed to do this in the BACKGROUND/UNSEEN at timed intervals throughout the day so that I could know fairly soon when I got email, without having an expensive direct internet connection.  It basically does this, and more.  It ended up turning into a full fledged dialer. 

It has something old, something new, something borrowed, something OS/2.  When I first started I went looking for what was out there to use to get done what I needed.  I ended up finding 3 good 
packages out there:
nyts207.zip  freeware The New York Telephone Scheduler Version 2.07
8/7/96 11/13/96             By Stu Mark

nifmon.zip                from       John R Clark

rxu1a.zip    freeware from       Dave Boll

rxpop.zip    freeware from       Christoph Lechleitner
---
nyts is a nice handy little scheduler.  You might talk to him about trying to do away with the first cmd.exe window that pops up in the background and then goes away.  It would be nice to not have it show up at all!
          
nifmon monitors network interfaces giving you the throughput speed, highest speed attained, and line speed connected at.
          It works on dialup and lan interfaces which is really handy to check the speed of your lan too!

rxu was formerly called ybda or something and has a lot of rexx routines that call C functions which really make rexx more functional. If you have ybda I assume you will want to delete your ydbautil.dll or whatever it is and just use the newer rxu.dll.

rxpop has routines excellently showing how to use REXX commands to check for your email!

The rest is all mine.  I have turned it into a GUI program and here it is.  It is shareware, NOT FREE, but hopefully has a reasonable price.  I am asking a small price for my work, not for the others.

PRICE:
======
From me directly:

Price:  $10 to $30 U.S.  dollars
Pay the lesser amount if you do not need support if you want.
If you rip me off you will surely hasten people not to program for
OS/2 since they can't make any money at it.

I will send you a registration key to make it fully usable.

BMT Micro's price:

Whatever they list.
They will notify me and 
I will send you a registration key to make it fully usable.

nyts207.zip includes: nytsii.doc, nytsii.exe, nytsii.stu, pmpop.exe
Use this or use your own.

rxu1a.zip includes: file_id.diz, procs.cmd, rxsrs.exe, rxu.dll, rxu.dsc, rxu.inf

my stuff includes: dialip.exe, killbn.cmd, killhex.cmd, showini.cmd, broutbox.exe,
                   notify.cmd, notify1.cmd, which.cmd, vputil.dll


INSTALLATION (after you unzipped the file):
===========================================
Files needed to run program:  dialip.exe, vputil.dll, rxu.dll, notify.cmd, broutbox.exe, ppp.exe, pppterm.exe

1.) run setup.exe    (also run this to delete, upgrade, or move its location)

    OR to install manually:

1.) Put all the files into a directory that you have included in your PATH statement in your config.sys, or make a dialip directory and put x:\dialip in your PATH statement in your config.sys and reboot.

2.) Put vputil.dll and rxu\rxu.dll into a directory that is included in the LIBPATH statement in your config.sys, like x:\OS2\DLL

3.) Copy dialip.hlp into x:\os2\help

4.) Make sure you have SET TMP=x:\TMP  (or whatever path) in your
    config.sys

5.) Make sure you have something like SET ETC=x:\MPTN\ETC  (or whatever path) in your config.sys

6.) Set up any scheduling program you want to run dialip.exe automatically.  If you need, try every 15 or 20 minutes at work, or say every 20, 30, or 60 minutes at home.  Don't go overboard, and try 
not to have everyone do it at the top of every hour, etc... Do it at odd times.  (You might want to change you phone service type if you start dialing every day.  Just once per hour, 12 hours per day, 7 days per week adds up to 84 calls per week, or 360 calls per month.  Check how many local calls you get per month).

NOTE:  You can program/modify notify.cmd to do whatever you want and you can program for individual message thru the parameter 'PROGRAM TO RUN ON EACH EMAIL' in the 'POP ID' window.  Notify now pops up a message in epm and plays a tune.
OS/2 3.0 or less users:  The ppp.exe included in this package is from OS/2 4.0 and if you try
          to use it as is dialip will not work.  You need to use the newer setloc1.dll that works with it.
          See debug2.txt for more details.  It can work.

CREATING AN ID:
===============

1.) Fill in all the general info, login name, modem settings, etc...

2.) Go to 'Connection' tab.  Choose a 'Service Provider'.  Hit 'Load Defaults'.

3.) Hit 'Build Connection String'.

4.) If you check 'Automatic Rebuild at Dial Time' it will rebuild the connection string from the current settings at that time before dialing.


Notes:

The 'Connection Commands' are used to build the connection string.  Whatever variables you denote in the connection commands will be replaced when you build your connection string.

You have built in variables you can use as part of your connection 
string.  These can be set on the 'Extra Var.s' tab page and/or you can
pass them into dialip as an argument by -var2'whatever you want in 
single quotes.  Even a variable like <var1>'.  There are other special
variables like <login_name> too.  For example, if your login_name were
'stan' then <login_name> would get replaced with 'stan'.

The variables will be replaced (even recursively) by their values when you do 'Build Connection String'. 
These are the built in variables:

<modem_string_1>
<modem_string_2>
<login_name>
<phone_no>
<com_port>
<baud_rate>
<dial_program>
<dial_string>
<var1>
<var2>
<var3>
<var4>
<var5>
<var6>
<var7>
<var8>
<var9>
<var10>

<login_password> is the only var. that will not be replaced (until it dials).

Connecting to IBM/Advantis with their dialer:
-----------------------------------------

This can also be done.  You don't have to fill out as much of the settings.  You will need to make sure you can connect from the IBM dialer first.  Then in Dialip fill out the login_name, password, pop server, and build the connect string.  Dialip calls IBM's dialer to make the connection.
Important note:  You can choose to have IBM's dialer use its phone numbers, or you can have dialip tell the dialer which phone numbers to use.
Either way you must put something in the phone number field.  If IBM's dialer will use its phone numbers the number of numbers in the field still determines how many times it will try to call if it cannot connect.
So I think in this case you could actually put anything in the
phone number field, but you do have to put something.
You could probably put 1|2
and this would make it use the dialer once, potentially using
the main dialer phone # and the 'Backup' phone number if
needed, and then it would try potentially these both again
a second time, dialing up to 4 phone numbers.


RUN ARGUMENTS:   (They can be used in any order)
==============

-id	id specifies the group of connection info you are using.  It is not the login name or login password.  This ties into the same info structure used by IBM's 'Dialer' and 'Dial Other IP'.

-pw	lets you specify a run time login password. Use like -pwmypassword

-v	verbose.  The ppp connection will tell you more of what it is doing.

-dl	tells it to dial after it starts.
        Also used to trigger the events that would normally happen when dialing.
        After already connected you can pick 'Dial' from the 'Connection' menu and
        it will do all the mail handling, and notify, hangup, and exit as the flags are
        checked.
        If it is already connected when you start dialip again, it will just go on and do the 
        normal steps after connection, but it will not hang up even if checked.

-sm	tells it to send any mail you have queued after it connects.  You can use say Ultimail or whatever to send mail when you are not connected and then when it connects, if you use this flag it will send your queued mail.  This can also be good for sending big files when you want to go to bed, (like now).  You send the file offline, have the dialer connect, send, and hangup, so you don't have to hang around to disconnect!

-cm	tells it to check & notify you of any mail you have after it connects.  Right now if you have it check say every 15 minutes and you are not there it will put up a notify window every 15 minutes (taking up memory) until you actually go and get your mail.  I will try to do something about this later.
-cmLIST    Also lets you set the check pop id list on the mail handling window.
               ex.: -cm1,4,5        checks pop id.s 1, 4, & 5

-gdm	tells it to retrieve and delete mail from server if you have any, into the directory you specify on the 'Mail' notebook page.  It does not pull it into other mail programs unfortunately 
yet. It does name them sequentially though, as in emINDEX.msg.  This will keep the build up of notifies from happening if you are gone.
-gdmLIST    Also lets you set the get & delete pop id list on the mail handling window.
               ex.: -gdm1,4,5        gets and deletes pop id.s 1, 4, & 5

-gm	tells it to only retrieve mail from server if you have any, into the directory you specify on the 'Mail' notebook page.  It does not pull it into other mail programs unfortunately yet.  It does 
name them sequentially though, as in emINDEX.msg.  This will keep the build up of notifies from happening if you are gone.
-gmLIST    Also lets you set the only get pop id list on the mail handling window.
               ex.: -gm1,4,5        does only get on pop id.s 1, 4, & 5

-dm	tells it to only delete mail from server if you have any, into the directory you specify on the 'Mail' notebook page.  It does not pull it into other mail programs unfortunately yet.  It 
does name them sequentially though, as in emINDEX.msg.  This will keep the build up of notifies from happening if you are gone.
-dmLIST    Also lets you set the only delete pop id list on the mail handling window.
               ex.: -dm1,4,5        does only delete on pop id.s 1, 4, & 5

-hu	tells it to hang up when it is done.  It waits for the program mailq.exe to not be running (which sends mail) before hanging up.
        It also waits for a special file in your dialip home directory called dialip.lok to NOT BE THERE before hanging up.
        When it goes to hang up if the file dialip.lok exists it will check every 15 seconds for it to disappear and will not hang up until it no longer exists.
        This lets you run a process upon startup (connection) which can create this file and then delete it when it is done to signal dialip that it is now o.k. to hangup.

-kcu	tells it to keep the connection up.  Reconnect if dropped.
        requires rexx ftp utils that are included with OS/2 4.0.  Not sure about previous releases of OS/2.
        It can probably be downloaded from a directory of Employee Written Software.
        I will look at making it available on my web page.

-dnhuim	tells it to Do Not Hang Up If Mail is found, if you do -cm and -hu and -dnhuif it will not hang up if it finds mail, otherwise it will hang up.

-ex	tells it to exit the program after optionally connecting.

-noshow	tells it to not bring up the dialer window.

-not	tells it to pop up a notify window if it finds email.
        calls notify.cmd program with 2 arguments: # of messages and user name.

-sac    Start After Connection, the specified program.  Sets field in 'Starts' window
         examples:  -sac'start netscape -mail'
         This will start up netscape mail after making a connection first.

-sad    Start After Disconnection, the specified program.  Sets field in 'Starts' window
         examples:  -sac'start del d:\newmail\em*.msg'
         This will delete all mail messages in d:\newmail after disconnection.

-varx'string'    x = 1 - 10.  Whatever is enclosed in the ' ' is what the variable gets set to.
             You can even make one var. dependant on another.
             examples:  -var1'Hello Towianski' -var10'What in the world<var1>'

-debug	spills it guts.

-clf   	creates the dialip.lok file upon starting.

-dlf  	deletes the dialip.lok file upon starting.

Examples:
=========

In say your NTYS scheduler you might have something like this:


exmail.cmd     This one calls exmail.cmd provided as an example.
               With this routine your machine can handle faxing along with internet connections
               by simply turning off one while you use the other.


dialip.exe -idgoodprovider -dl -sm -gdm -hu -ex -noshow

Use stan connection info.
Do not bring up dialer window
Dial/Connect
Send queued mail
Get and delete new mail from server
Hangup/Disconnect  (after send mail is done)
Exit


dialip.exe -idgoodprovider -dl -sm -gdm -gm -ex

Use stan connection info.
Dial/Connect
Send queued mail
Get and delete new mail from server for those in that list
Only Get mail for those in that list
Exit    /* with connection left running */


dialip.exe -idstanjenn -dl -cm1,4,5 -gdm2,3 -sm -hu -ex -debug -var1'Hello Towianski' -var10'What in the world<var1>' -v

Use stanjenn connection info.
turn on dialing debug
turn on dialip debug
set variable var1
set variable var10
Dial/Connect
Send queued mail
Check for new mail from server for pop id.s 1, 4, & 5
Get & Delete new mail from server for pop id.s 2 & 3
Hangup
Exit


-dl -noshow -idstanjenn -ex -sac'start netscape.exe -mail'

Use stanjenn connection info.
Dial/Connect
Do not show dialer or email server windows
After connecting do 'start netscape.exe -mail'   Since I used start ... It will start netscape email
and continue processing.
Exit dialip


RUN INTERACTIVELY:
==================

If you pull down the ID list, it will list all entries you have made thru your IBM Dialer, and your Dial Other Internet Provider programs.  It will read and save into the same file to store this info. as them.   It DOES NOT use the same password field.  It uses its own.  I am not sure if IBM encrypts their passwords and if so I would not know their scheme so this way we don't mess each other up. 

If you chose and ID, then hit 'Load' to restore the saved values.

'Password'	Leaving it blank will make it prompt you for a password at dial time.  Note you can leave it blank and give it a password thru the command line at start up time.

'Delete'	Deletes an ID entry.

'Save'	Saves your new values.

'Hangup'	Hangs up but leaves the program running.

'Dial'	Reads settings first like 'Get email', 'Send email', 'Phone #', 'Com Port', etc...  and then dials to connect.

'Exit'	Hangs up and quits program.

'Check 4 Mail'	Checks for any mail on the server right then for pop id.s listed in 'Mail Handling' tab.

'Get & Delete Mail'	Gets and Deletes any mail on the server right then for pop id.s listed in 'Mail Handling' tab.

'Only Get Mail'	Gets and does not Delete any mail on the server right then for pop id.s listed in 'Mail Handling' tab.

'Only Delete Mail'	Does not Get and does Deletes any mail on the server right then for pop id.s listed in 'Mail Handling' tab.

'Del Queued Ultimail'  Delete queued ultimail (sometimes 
things get stuck in the queue and won't go away).

IP:
---

LOGIN NAME:  Login name to login to ISP.

PASSWORD:    Password to login to ISP.
    It DOES NOT use the same password field.  It uses its own.  I am not sure if IBM encrypts their passwords and if so I would not know their scheme so this way we don't mess each other up. 

PHONE NUMBERS:  Put in the phone number to dial.  You can put in more 
    than one by just separating them with '|'
    like:  1810-463-1601|254-1600|1810-463-1601|254-1600 This means it
    will try these four phone numbers until it connects.  You have I 
    think 100 char.s to use.  For Advantis' dialer you have 2 options,
    to either have it dial using its phone numbers, or have it dial 
    using dialip's phone numbers.

DEFAULT ROUTE:  You probably don't have to fill this in, but you can
    if you need to.

DOMAIN NAME:  Your domain name (of your Internet Service Provider)

1ST DOMAIN NAME SERVER:  Give the IP address that your ISP provides.

2ND DOMAIN NAME SERVER:  Optional 2nd lookup address (also from your ISP).

NETMASK:  If not given one to use, leave it blank.

MODEM:
-------

INIT STRING 1:  Just put in the modem string to reset your modem.

INIT STRING 2:  Put in the modem string to set your modem up properly.  For now to get your modem init strings, use the IBM software dialers to pull up the ones for your modem.  Then hilight them and hit Ctrl-Insert to copy them.  Then go into my program and do Shift-Insert to paste them in.  TURN OFF COMPRESSION, as this does its own.

PPP PRIORITY:  Tells OS/2 what priority to run ppp at.  Defaults to 2nd highest priority.  Bump up to Time Critical if your system or your providers is really taxed (like peak usage times).

INACTIVITY TIMEOUT:  How much time of no activity before program will automatically disconnect.  Handy if you walk away and forget it.

FLOW CONTROL:  Hardware is the preferred option.

MRU SIZE:  You can probably leave blank.  Defaults to 1500.  You can put a size in if you need, like 296 for slower connections.

----------
Some of the fields like the com ports are intentionally made so you can overwrite if you need.  You can pick one like com2 of the list or you can type one in if you have something strange like some kind of shared lan modem or whatever.


AUTOSTARTS:
-----------

RIGHT AFTER CONNECT:  Whatever command you put in here will be
    run after connection.  Dialip will wait for it to finish before 
    continuing.  So, if you want to start something and continue 
    without waiting for it put 'start' in front of your command like:
    start xxx

RIGHT AFTER DISCONNECT:  Whatever command you put in here will be
    run after disconnection (hangup).  Dialip will wait for it to finish before 
    continuing.  So, if you want to start something and continue 
    without waiting for it put 'start' in front of your command like:
    start xxx


EXTRA VARIABLES
---------------

These var.s 1 thru 10 can be used in creating custom connection strings.
These can be passed in at startup by -varx'string'
where x = 1 thru 10
string = whatever you want to set the variable to.

CONNECTION STRING
-----------------

The only field that you must use here is the long connection string field at the bottom.  The other objects can just help you build a proper string.

A connection string is built from the 'Connection Program', the 
'Dial Program', and the 'Connection Commands'.  These are saveable settings that will be used if you use 'Automatic Rebuild at Dial Time'.

Picking a 'Service Provider' will fill in these fields with default values for the particular provider that I knew how to connect to.

The 'Connection Commands' (biggest) window is now fully edittable.  You can make it as long and complicated as you
want or need.  These commands get saved to a simple text file now, which you can edit outside of dialip as well.

For PAP use.  This uses the Extra Variables 1 & 2.  Var 1 needs to be the PAP authentication login name.
Var 2 needs to be the PAP authentication login password.

Examples:
=========
An old complicated example using many variables:
For example, if you are saying you need to answer to your ISP when you call it with a login_name, and a password, and a third value such as 'slip' or 'ppp'
Try this:

1.) At the connection menu for 'Service Provider' select 'Dial then Vars - Slattach'

2.) Hit 'Load Defaults'

3.) It will then tell you that it will use the following connection commands:
      It will do:
  	<modem string 1>
	wait for an OK from your modem
	<modem string 2>
	wait for an OK from your modem
	do the dial string to call your ISP
	Then waitfor whatever you put in <var1>
	Then send whatever you put in <var2>
	Then waitfor whatever you put in <var3>
	Then send whatever you put in <var4>
	Then waitfor whatever you put in <var5>
	Then send whatever you put in <var6>
	etc....

If any <vars> are blank it will skip them so you don't have to worry about the rest you don't need.

4.) So, in your case, go to the 'Extra Var.s' tab and stick 'ogin:' into Var1 say to wait for a 'login:' prompt

5.) then put <login_name> so it will send your login name after it receives 'ogin:' from above.

6.) Then stick 'assword:' into Var3 say if you wanted to wait for a 'password:' prompt

7.) then put <login_password> into Var4 so it will send your login password after it receives 'assword:' from above.

8.) Then stick 'connection type:' into Var5 or whatever you see it prompts you for so it will wait for that.  Put in the last piece of the prompt to wait for like 'type:'
This is all ISP dependant.

9.) then put 'ppp' or 'slip' into Var6 so it will send your login password after it receives that from above.

In all these above like 'ogin:', 'assword:', 'type:', 'ppp', do not include the '  They are just there to help denote for you what to put in. For 'ppp' just put ppp

10.) Go back to the 'Connection' tab and hit 'Build Connection String' and look at the string.  Whatever you put into any Var.s should show up after the dial phone number.

If you choose, 'Automatic Rebuild at Dial Time' it will rebuild this every time it dials.  You could also just make any changes you want right to this connection string, do not select 'Automatic Rebuild at Dial Time', and then whatever you put in here and save will get used every time it dials.  Therefore you have total control over your ability to create your own connection string.


MANUAL MODE:
============

1.) Fill in basic items like login name, password, modem settings, etc...

2.) At the connection menu for 'Service Provider' select 'Manual Mode PPP'

3.) Hit 'Load Defaults'

4.) Hit 'Build Connection String'

5.) Hit 'Connect' menu --> 'Dial'

6.) It will start ppp.exe and pppterm.exe.  If pppterm.exe does not show up, bring up your window list and double click it to bring it into the foreground to use it.

7.) Do any at... modem commands to set it up.  (If you got an init string already and ran it once by dialing you probably do not have to do it again.

8.) do 'atdt'phone_number for a touch tone phone or
do 'atdp'phone_number for a rotary phone to dial your ISP.

9.) Keep track of the prompts your ISP uses and the information you need to supply to login to your ISP and start your connection.  Use this info. to create your dialip id to login to your ISP automatically next time.  For example it will probably spew info first and then prompt for something like 'login:',
then          'password:'
etc...

10.) If you successfully log in then hit 'F10'.  Dialip will continue the rest of the setup, etc...
If you did not successfully log in then hit 'ESCAPE'


If you have troubles look in the file genppp.txt provided.  For one I you will need to replace spaces in say a password with '\s' so 'hal moon'  -> 'hal\smoon'
And if you need a delay I think you can do that with a '\d'.

If you have more troubles just email me.

MAIL HANDLING
-------------

INTEGRATE WITH EMAIL CLIENT:   Set this if you want dialip to be able to delete queued mail,
    send queued mail, etc...  Automatically fills in EMAIL CLIENT BASE DIRECTORY, but you need
    to check it to change the drive letter and make sure it is correct.

    Dialip can handle netscape for OS/2 or Windows 3.1 email.  You can even use both
    and point them both to the same directory for the email files.  Only difference is
    OS/2 uses 'Outbox' while Windows 3.1 uses 'Unsent'.  Dialip will send queued email
    from both.

EMAIL CLIENT BASE DIRECTORY:   Put in the base directory for the email software you want to
    integrate with.  For example for Netscape 2.02  use something like 'D:\netscape\mail'
                          for Netscape in WinOS2 use 'C:\netscape\users\stant\mail'
                          for Ultimail use 'C:\tcpip\umail\mailstor'
                          for PM Mail use 'D:\southsde\pmmail'
    It uses this directory to get to the email software files like the outbox (queued) files.

For the mail handling page, for say 'POP ID's to Check for Mail', and
'POP ID's to Get and Delete Mail for', etc...  in these you put the
number of the pop you want it to do it for.  So if you have 3 pop id.s
you could put '1,2' under 'Get & Delete...'  and '3' under 'Check for
mail...'  Separate the numbers by commas.

POP ID.s:
---------

BUTTONS:  These buttons do these functions immediately for the pop id you are at.
                It makes it easy to just work with one persons mail.
    SEND - sends email for this id.
    CHECK - check email for this id.
    GET & DEL - gets and deletes email for this id.
    ONLY GET - only gets email for this id.
    ONLY DEL - only deletes email for this id.
    DEL QUEUED - deletes queued (to send) email for this id.

POP SERVER:  Put in the hostname of the machine they tell you, like mickey.global.com  Pop server is your email server you will get mail from.

POP ID:   Login name for the POP server.

POP PASSWORD:  Login password for the POP server.
    It DOES NOT use the same password field.  It uses its own.  I am not sure if IBM encrypts their passwords and if so I would not know their scheme so this way we don't mess each other up. 

MAIL STORE DIRECTORY:  If you choose '-gdm' or 'Get Mail', this is the directory where it will put the new mail (ex. e:\newmail\stanjenn)
To integrate with PMMail 1.95a:
    1.) Go to the Account menu
    2.) Choose 'Account Settings...'
    3.) Click on 'Receive' tab
    4.) Click on 'SMTP' button
    5.) Under 'Path to Incoming Mail' put the same directory path you entered for dialip  (ex. e:\newmail\stanjenn).

    To make PMMail fetch new mail retreived by dialip when you open PMMail continue with:
    6.) Click on main 'Preferences' tab
    7.) In 'Startup Actions' select 'Fetch Mail'

Or an old way:
To have PMMail use your mail set this to something like: x:\southsde\pmmail\stan_t0.act\inbox.fld
Then tell PMMail to 'reindex' folder to find your mail.

MAIL INDEX:  mail files are given the names emINDEX.msg.  Index is the next index to be used.  You can change it if you need to.  If the program finds that a file exists that it wants to use it will increment the index by 1 until it finds an unused filename so as not to overwrite any mail files.

FORWARD TO MAIL ADDRESS:  If you put something in here it will not put the mail into your email client, but will send it to the email address you specify.
This is useful for having one system connect to the internet and pulling down many people's email and forwarding it to them across your intranet!     

PROGRAM TO RUN ON EACH EMAIL: If you put something in here it will execute that line, giving it 2 arguments, the filepath (mailstore directory), and the email file name it just downloaded (emxxx.msg).  See example file delfile.cmd.
This is done for each email downloaded.

REQUIREMENTS:
=============
All the tcp/ip stuff that comes with Warp Connect, Warp 4.0, or separately purchased IBM TCP/IP software,
including OS/2's sendmail.exe.

License:
========

You are granted a license to use the software as is for up to 7 days after which you must either pay to register it or discontinue using it. If you do not register it you have no further rights to use the program. If you do register it you are paying for the right 'to use' that major version of the program for which you paid.  You have no other rights to the program.  You cannot disassemble the code or modify the code in any way.  You can freely distribute the original file to others as shareware. All rights are reserved by me.

You can post this .zip file on BBS's or internet sites as long as you post this original file as it is.

You cannot charge for this software except for minimal distribution charges such as the cost of a floppy disk if you give it to someone that way.

LIMITATIONS:
============

Should encrypt password.

With a heavy system load the 'Keep Connection Up' option seems to think the connection
was lost probably because of a long delay, and will then drop your connection before trying
to restart it.  Have to work on this some time.

Warranty and Guarantee:
=======================

If it doesn't work, I will fix it if I can or I will return your money.

If you find a major bug that damages the usability of this program for its intended use I will make every effort to provide you with a fix within 30 days or return you your money.  You can either write me thru snail mail or send email to my email address listed below.

My Intent:

To provide a good and useful program at a reasonable price and to remedy any bugs that might be found in a reasonable time.
