Jeff,

when I start MacLynx 680x0 b1 first OT/PPP is called correctly and a ppp
connection is established but then, when I try to call *ANY* url (By (G)o
and the page http://www.ecc) it does not happen anything. MacLynx tells me
it's connecting but never really gets connected. May be there is a problem
in the config file or something else? Really, I don't know and moreover I'm
not so experienced. My main practice with Lynx is using it from a shell. On
the Mac I'd like it for certain tasks when graphic isn't useful and needed,
for example to access Delphi from the webside. Although I have a full
provider (with shell access *and* ppp, ppp normally is preferrable to me
because it's a local call).

Take care: Differently from your environment, I'm *NOT* using a Powermac
but a Quadra 630 with 68040 processor.

Thanks in advance for any suggestion,

Ulrich
