Arachne at FreeLists---The Arachne Fan Club! I have been trying to use the dialup sequence which Glenn McCorkle recently gave me to dial and log in at VCN, which will be my new ISP when I succeed in making the dialup and login sequence work. However, I have been unable to make it work. I never get a proper dial screen and I have been unable to get right through to VCN. VCN is the Vancouver Community Net whose full URL is VCN.BC.CA Interestingly enough, earlier I modified my old terminal mode auto login dialup sequence from Compuserve to fit what I hoped would work at VCN. It worked to the extent of my getting to VCN and then VCN demanding I login but not giving me a proper opportunity to do so. In other words, nothing works yet. Below is my Arachne.CFG using Glenn'S dialup sequence. Can anyone tell me what I have to change to make it work. Help will be greatly appreciated.
