Re: [NTLK] Problems with dialup connection

Actually, Betty, this might be very helpful. It jibes with some
comments from a response I got earlier today.

Do I just leave zeros for the server address? Newton demands a number!

I weeded out the spacing issues (still waiting for my keyboard to
arrive, sharpening up my stylus input), so it's probably not that
thought I'll look again.

I could get my powerbook to dial in if it comes to that.

They told me to enter the username with nothing else, too. I didn't
have any luck with the entire email address.

What's the ELN/ deal? Never heard of it.

Best,

Jim
