If you try to close one of the three Internet setup slips before completing the setup, a
message appears to warn you that the setup is incomplete:
It’s OK to close a setup slip before completing it—for example if you intend to
finish it later, or if you don’t need to enter a login script (if your ISP uses PAP or
CHAP authentication).
Entering a login script
A login script is a set of commands that are executed in order when you log into your
ISP. In many cases, your ISP will provide you with a login script.
If your ISP doesn’t specify a login script (and doesn’t use PAP or CHAP
authentication), you can determine your ISP’s login sequence by logging in through a
terminal emulator program on your Newton device (for example, PocketCall) or
desktop computer (for example, MicroPhone). As you log in, make note of the
prompts and responses sent by the ISP’s computer. They are the steps you need in
the login script.
A particular ISP may have different login sequences for different dial-in sites. For
example, the login sequence for London users of a particular ISP may be different
from the login sequence for San Francisco users of the same ISP.
