minutes have occured without any keyboard activity.  To restore
the screen and cancel the screen saver, just press any key.
Please note, that the key you press will be processed if it has
a function.


Screen Saver Type
───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────

There are currently three types of screen savers:

  Blank Screen
  Bouncing Ball
  Fade Out

Selecting None will disabled the screen saver.


BOOTP Enable
───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────

If enabled, NetXpress will use the BOOTP protocol and connect up
to the specified server to query the information in the two other
windows.  This means that your IP address is a temporary address,
and that you may not give it out since it will always change.

If disabled, then you must fill out the rest of the information
in the next two windows, but you do not need to fill out any of
the information in the BOOTP window.


BOOTP Server
───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────

The IP address of a BOOTP server to contact upon startup to query
your address information.  You must not place a domain address
in this field.


BOOTP Timeout
───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────

The timeout is seconds for a connection to the server to fail.


IP Address
───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────

Your IP Address.

Example:
  198.234.43.23


Net Mask
───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────

If you have more than one IP address for your network, then you
must set the network mask for your local network.If not (which is
usually the case), then just leave this entry blank or enter the
default value of 255.255.254.0.

This value may never be 255.255.255.255.


Host Name
───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────

Some applications will wish  to know your PC's name,  a short
textual  name.   This will be the machineÆs name and not your
domain name.  This name may contain only numeric digits and
letters, and should be less than 9 characters.


Domain Name
───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────

Your system's domain address.

Example:
  foobar.com


Gateway Address
───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────

composed of two files:  .WRK and .TXT.The .TXT file contains the
actual message with all headers and the message body.  The .WRK
file contains the recipient of the message plus some other
information.


SMTP Outbound Directory
───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────

A directory where outbound messages are stored.  Outbound messages
are composed exactly like inbound messages.


Check Mail Interval
───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────

The interval, in seconds, to check for any outgoing messages.


Log
───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────

If enabled, each session logs all input and output to a log file.
The log file is appended to each time NetXpress is started up.
The format of the log file is: yyyy-x.LOG, where yyyy represents
the services name (ie. SMTP, NNTP,...) and x represents the
session number.

The log file will be openned at startup and will only be closed
when NetXpress exits.


NNTP News Directory
───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────

A directory that incoming and outgoing news is stored in.  Two
other filess will be maintained in this directory by NetXpress;
  NEWS.DAT and NEWS.NDX

Incoming news messages are stored in .BAG files.
These files are in a æbatched rmailÆ format and are compatible
with the PageSat .BAG format.

Also in this directory will be the NEW-GRPS.LOG file that is
updated everytime an NNTP server is connected.


NNTP Send Message Maximum
───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────

If you wish to deliver outgoing messages to more than one NNTP
server, then place the number of NNTP servers to connect to before
the message is deleted from your system's News Directory.

Usually, one NNTP server is enough.

───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────

This value is used to determine new messages to send to this
server.

The date is in the following format: yymmdd
The Time is in the following format: hhmmss


NNTP Host - Get Active
───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────

If enabled, then NetXpress will request a newsgroup list every
24 hours period from this NNTP server.  This list is saved to a
file in the NNTP News Directory with a filename of the NNTP server
followed by a .GRP file extension.  This is overwriten each time a
list is requested.

Example:
  \\spool\\news\\foobar.grp


NNTP Host - Time to Poll: Time

NNTP Host- Polling Days
───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────

The days to connect up to this NNTP server.



Login File
───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────

The Login file is used to send commands to your modem or
communications port.  It allows for the following commands:

timeout <num>
    Sets the number of seconds allowed to pass before the expected
    string is found.

send | output <string>
    Sends the specified string to the port.

expect | wait | input [<num>] [<string> [<string2>]]
    Wait for the specified string to be recevied.  If no <string>
    is specified, then this commands performs a wait.  If the
    <num> value is omited, then the value from the last timeout
    will be used.  The string is case-insensitive, thus 'Login'
    and 'login' are equal.  If a second string is given, then it
    is used as a bad token.  If the text received is equal to the
    bad token, the login command will be terminated.

message <message>
    Will cause the <message> to be displayed on the screen.

break [<num>]
    Sends a break signal to your communications port for <num>
    milliseconds.  If <num> is omited, then the default 5
    milliseconds will be used.

set <length><parity><stop>
    Sets your communications port to <length> data bits,
    <parity> and <stop> stop bits.<length> may only be either
    8 or 7, <paritry> may only be N, O, E, <stop> may only be
    1 or 2.

There are a couple things that are different from other dialers.
You must place a line-feed/carriage-return at the end of any
outgoing string that requires one.  In the \\xxx macro, the xxx
represents a decimal number and not an octal number.

The variable <string> may contain any of the following special
macros:

  \\s      A single Space (32)
  \\r      A line-feed (19)
  \\n      A carriage-return (16)
  \\t      A Tab (7)
  \\\      A backslash
  \\b      A back-space (8)
  \\xxx    xxx represents a decimal number.  You must include
          all three numbers.
  %p      The phone number of the host
  %n      Your login name
  %w      Your password for this host
  %       This macro is only accepted with the input command.
          It allows for any character to match.  This macro must
          appear by itself.

A sample login command file for UUCP access follows:

# Login Command to login into a UUCP Service
#
timeout 10                # 10 seconds to timeout
send ATDT%p\\r             # dial the phone numbe
rexpect 80 CONNECT BUSY   # wait up to 8 seconds for either
                          # CONNECT or BUSY.  If BUSY is
                          # received, this ends
message Connected!        # Display 'Connected!'
break 300                 # Send a break signal for 300
                          # miliseconds
expect login:             # Expect 'login:' within 10 seconds
send %n\\r                 # Send in our login name
expect word:              # Expect 'word:' (as in Password:)
send %w\\r                 # Send in out password

Dialup-on-Demand Inactivity Timeout
───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────

If non-zero, NetServer will use this value as an inactivity
timeout.  When this number of seconds goes by without any packet
traffic, NetServer will logoff (with the logoff command) and wait
for packet traffic.  Once packet traffice resumes, it will then
logon back on with the login command.
