[comp.sys.atari.st.tech] Net_ST

I'm trying to get the Net TCP/IP program running on my ST over a dialup
line.  So far, I can't get my machine talking with the machine I call.  I
can get the modem to call the local dialup just fine, and a modem
connection is established--however, the needed "link" is never established
and I'm left without an IP address--thus, the program is virtually useless
to me right now.

Some general info:  I got the programs from wuarchive.wustl.edu.  I'm using
Merit dialups (MichNet--the network linking the universities within
Michigan).  The docfile is by Howard Chu (are you listening?).

Has anyone been able to get Net running on their ST and been successful in
telnetting and ftp'ing with their ST?  I'd appreciate any help I can get in
setting up this program.  (It _is_ possible for this to work--I've set up a
similar program on a friend's PC.)  Thanks.
