Providing Internet Access to Users
----------------------------------

Along with this document you should be able to find the files
WIN95USR.TXT, WIN95LOG.SCP, WIN31USR.TXT, and LOGIN.CMD.  Although
these files were written to be as finished as possible, they are
NOT ready to be distributed to your end-users.  You should read
carefully through each file.  You'll see four exclamation points (!!!!)
at the spots which need your attention the most, but we encourage you
to review the entire contents of the files and rephrase things where
our default explanations don't adequately describe your system.

WIN95USR.TXT guides an owner of Windows 95 through configuring his
Dial-Up Networking application to establish a PPP connection with
your Worldgroup server.

WIN95LOG.SCP is a script file which automates Windows 95's Dial-Up
Networking login sequence.  This file assumes that your Worldgroup
server's introductory text blocks are as they were when you first
installed Worldgroup.  If you've customized things, especially if
you use GALNOTE announcements, carefully test WIN95LOG.SCP before
you distribute it to your users.

WIN31USR.TXT guides an owner of Windows 3.1 through using your
Worldgroup server's terminal-mode FTP client to download Trumpet
Winsock and Netscape Navigator from their respective FTP archives,
then installing both on his machine.

LOGIN.CMD is a script file which automates Trumpet Winsock's dialing
and login sequence.  This file assumes your Worldgroup server's
introductory text blocks are as they were when you first installed
Worldgroup.  If you've customized things, especially if you use
GALNOTE announcements, carefully test LOGIN.CMD before you distribute
it to your users.

Thoroughly test the instruction files as well before distributing them.
This will confirm that version numbers are still current, that the
files haven't been relocated to other FTP paths, and that your own
system responds as the instructions anticipate.

Realize that both Trumpet Winsock and Netscape Navigator are not
freeware.  Licensing declarations by both companies forbid you to
place their programs in one of your file libraries for download
(a pity -- they'd distribute many more copies that way).  Also, each
end-user is responsible for registering his copy with each company.
Depending on your system's size and goals, you could always purchase
copies in bulk and sell them to users yourself.  To pursue this,
contact Sales@trumpet.com.au for Winsock and Info@netscape.com for
Netscape Navigator.

PPP User Menu Page
------------------

You can dramatically simplify the process described in WIN31USR.TXT
by creating a terminal-mode menu page like this:

     1 ... Display Instructions Text File Onscreen
     2 ... Download Instructions Text File (WIN31USR.TXT)
     3 ... FTP to Trumpet Winsock (/ftpa ftp.trumpet.com.au)
     4 ... Download gotten Winsock file using ZMODEM
     5 ... Download LOGIN.CMD from File Libraries
     6 ... Download PKZ204G.EXE from File Libraries
     7 ... FTP to Netscape (/ftpa ftp.netscape.com)
     8 ... Download gotten Netscape file using ZMODEM

Option 1 is a file page with file name set to
"\WGSERV\libraryname\WIN31USR.TXT" where libraryname is the
name of whichever of your file libraries contains WIN31USR.TXT.

Option 2 is a module page running the File Libraries module
with command string "&S libraryname D WIN31USR.TXT"

Option 3 is a module page running the FTP Client module with
command string "ftp.trumpet.com.au -A" which will anonymously
log the user onto Trumpet Winsock's FTP site.  Users will have
to cd /winsock, type in binary, and get twsk21f.zip by hand
but, once gotten, they can use Option 4 to bring it from your
Worldgroup server down to their PC.

Option 4 is a module page running the File Libraries module
with command string "&T D Z" to download all tagged files.
If you want to give users the option of using a protocol
other than ZMODEM, use "&T D" as the command string.

Option 5 is a module page running the File Libraries module
with command string "&S libraryname D LOGIN.CMD".

Option 6 is a module page running the File Libraries module
with command string "&S libraryname D PKZ204G.EXE".  This is a
self-extracting ZIP file from PKWare with the PKZIP and PKUNZIP
utilities.  Feel free to get it from the Galacticomm Demo
System DOSUTIL Library, or from PKWare directly.

Option 7 is a module page running the FTP Client module with
command string "ftp.netscape.com -A".  Users should look in the
/netscape/windows directory for the latest version of Netscape
Navigator.  Or, if they wish, they can look around for a beta
release (e.g. the /2.0beta/windows directory).

Option 8 is a module page running the File Libraries module with
command string "&T D Z", identical to Option 4 but put here to avoid
confusion.  You can tell users to simply follow the steps in order.

If you create this or a similar menu page, be sure to edit the
WIN31USR.TXT file so that it properly describes your new setup.
