You should see a screen -like this:</p> - -<p>The program will present a series of questions, to which you will feed it appropriate -answers. Things like your modem device, the modem initialization string, and the ISP -phone number. Some items will have a default, which you can accept in most cases.</p> - -<p>After the program runs, it will create a <tt class="COMMAND">ppp-go</tt> program and a -<tt class="COMMAND">ppp-off</tt> program.
