Replacing script with PAP

Issue: We now do not require PPP connections to use a script. Document: 00002
Created: Jun 25, 98
Applies to: Windows 95 using Dial-up Networking. Modified: Nov 05, 98

Glinx always allowed different types of connections, PPP, SLIP etc.. Our servers now will not only do scripts to allow different connections but allow what is called PAP which automatically connects with PPP. Some users may already be using PAP, so follow along the best you can.
