Date: 5 Jul 1994 17:04:03 GMT Organization: A World of Information at Your Fingertips Lines: 4 Message-ID: <2vc3q3$3pt@nwfocus.wa.com> NNTP-Posting-Host: halcyon.com The man pages for pppd say that tip or kermit can be used to establish a session with a remote host. When you log into the host you issue the 'pppd passive' command then terminate your tip session w/out disconnecting. How is that done? Is the ~^Y escape sequence the key?
