To establish a PPP connection through 
CompuServe, you must have Warp's Internet 
Access Kit (IAK) installed on your machine.  
You must also have the PPP update installed 
which you can ftp from ftp.ibm.net as 
/pub/PPP/PPP.ZIP or you can download the file 
from the OS/2 USERS forum (GO OS2USER) in 
library 20 with the filename $PP.ZIP.



Once you have the PPP update installed, you 
need to open the Dial Other Internet 
Providers object in the Internet Utilities 
folder. Then choose the Add Entry object, or 
select Add Entry from the Configure pull-down 
menu, then configure dialer as follows:
