TermiteTCP V1.04 Copyright © 1996 Oregon Research Thank you for purchasing TermiteTCP. Please take the time to read all the information in this file. It contains important information, corrections, and additions to the TermiteTCP manual. The following is a description of features that have been added to Termite TCP after the manual was printed. Technical Support Phone Number ****************************** A mistake was made in the technical support phone number listed on page 4 of your user manual. The correct number is (503) 968-9250 Login Script Command: DELAY *************************** Some ISPs are slow in responding to certain actions. The DELAY command is prevents login script commands from executing too quickly. For instance, many systems require a slight delay after connection but before a wakeup character is sent. The argument is the number of seconds to delay before executing the next script command. A DELAY 0 command is automatically generated as the first line of the script when using the Record Login Script procedure. Connection Settings ******************* The Connection Settings Window has been broken into two windows with the minimum required information on the basic screen and addtional options accessed through the More button gadget. The More/Fewer options operate just like described in the Network Settings portion of the manual. PAP/CHAP User Authentication **************************** Many systems offer(and some require) the use of automated user authentication protocols. TermiteTCP offers support for PAP(User/Password Authentication Protocol also known as UPAP) and the less common CHAP(Crytographic Handshake Authentication Protocol). To use PAP or CHAP, open the Connection settings Window and select More Options. If using PAP, then enter your user name and password in the PAP UserName and PAP/CHAP Password gadgets. CHAP only requires a password in the PAP/CHAP Password gadget. Select Use to accept your entries. To connect with PAP/CHAP all you need to do now is click on the Connect gadget of the status window. No login script is required when using PAP or CHAP (except possibly for a delay command after connect) and you do not have to execute the Record Login Script procedure. Verification Interval ********************* This new option specifies the time interval that TermiteTCP will test your ISP connection. After the specified number of minutes has elapsed, TermiteTCP will test the connection. If the connection has failed for some reason(phone line dropped, etc.), then TermiteTCP will automatically redial the phone and reconnect to your ISP. Tooltype support **************** Support has been added for specifying configuration information via tooltypes specified in the TermiteTCP program icon. To edit the tooltype settings, click on the TermiteTCP icon and select Information from the WorkBench Icon menu. The following Tooltypes are currently recognized: AUTOCONNECT TermiteTCP will automatically connect to your ISP when the program is launched if this tooltype is set to TRUE. AUTOICONIFY TermiteTCP will automatically iconify to your WorkBenchconnect if this tooltype is set to TRUE. NULLMODEM If this tool type is set to TRUE, it will supresses the warning message if you attempt to connect with no phone number entered in the Connection settings. This is useful if you are intentionally making a direct serial connection to a local host via the serial port. Troubleshooting *************** It has come to our attention that some new PC based ISP's require the remote IP address be something other than 0.0.0.0 at the start of the address negotiation phase. If the message in the status window says LCP: Up and then proceeds to cycle through IPCP: CONFREQ and IPCP: CONFREJ followed by a Termite TCP message saying that we were unable to negotiate with your host, try settign the remote IP address to something other than 0.0.0.0 (1.1.1.1 for example).
