Update for Ohio Users
Road Runner in Ohio has switched to using the Digital authentication system. At this
time, the only OS/2 login program that can be used with this system is RROS2d. You
can find the latest RROS2d sofrware here.
Prerequisites
Before you can get on-line with your Road Runner cable modem you need to configure
your network card for DHCP. Due to a bug in WARP 4's DHCP you will need to get an
MPTS update. As of 6-6-98 the latest is WR08423 and can be found
here.
You can test your DHCP configuration by pinging an address out side of your Road Runner
network. For example, to ping this site, go to an OS/2 command prompt and type:
ping 208.146.222.123
Even if you are not logged in you can still ping out. If you do not get a response
you most likely have a problem with your DHCP configuration.
Native OS/2 Login Programs
I'm working on a unified RR utility. It is a must have for any RR user! It
currently does not perform login/logout function for HP systems but it "should"
perform those functions for ANY Toshiba (TAS) RR network! Try it! It will, at
a minimum, display lots if nifty information about your RR connection.
Help me test my new RROS2. Click

information!
RROS2 02-20-98 : rros2-0220.zip [39,117]
As of November 19, 1998 George Coulouris is maintaining
the unix llrms code HERE. You can still
download the original code below.
Download the sourcecode to my rrlms test program for Digital
authentication systems. I used this to develope the plug-in for
RROS2. It should allow Linux and FreeBSD users to login to
Digital Road Runner networks. I'm putting it out as freeware
so have at it! [download]

Notes
|
Beta of Phil Karn's rrlogin is available. This OS/2 Native Road
Runner login program will work in the San Diego area. Work is in
progress to open this up to all Toshiba based Road Runner
networks.
For a wealth of information about Road Runner see Phil Karn's
web page at http://people.qualcomm.com/karn/rr

Beta of John Clark's rrclientd now available! If you want to
test this beta send an e-mail to the address in the download
field. I need to know what RR area
you're in and that you are a US citizen (for cryptographic
export reasons).
This native OS/2 login program will work for HP based Road Runner
networks.
