Based on your experience with manually connecting to your Inte rnet Service Provider, you
may need to change the Annex username: and Annex password: strings to match the
prompts displayed by the machine to which you are connecting. You may or may not need
to transmit the ppp command after the system accepts your username and password. The
Dialup Networking tool automatically replaces the $USERID and $PASSWORD variables
with your Dialup Networking username and password so that you don’t expose your use r-
name and password in an unencrypted plain text file.
To use this login script, you must first save the file to a known location on your disk. By
convention, Dialup Networking script files have an SCP file extension.

changes.

entry you want to change.
