RE: PPP Dial in setup question

["Andy Nolen-Parkhouse" <aparkhouse@xxxxxxxxx>]

Jim,

There was a time when the only way to set up a PPP connection was using
Operations Navigator.  This is probably still the easiest method.

The page at the InfoCenter URL below should provide a good start.  It
also provides information on setting up the PC side.  The Ops Nav
interface is fairly pretty clear.
