# I use this Perl script, saved as a MacPerl droplet, in the Startup Items
# folder.  It just logs in and quits. There's no keepalive or logout support.

# (Well, I think there was support to send the keepalive packets every so

# quits instead of leaving MacPerl sucking up CPU time waiting for the next
# opportunity to send a keepalive packet.)

# Copy this into a new MacPerl document, change the login and password, save

# If you don't already have MacPerl you can get the latest version from

# Perl 5 RoadRunner UNIX login code
#       By Mark Trostler adapted from Phil Karn's C code
#       4/2/97
#
#       Revised 8/13/97 to send non-outdating commands ('Linux')
#               And got rid of keepalives...
#
#       Command line options:
#       -v = Verbose mode - Highly Recommended!
#       -p <Proxy Host IP address>
#       -t <timeout value> - Just leave it at 30 seconds which is
#               the default
#       -h <Login Host IP address>
#       -l = Logout First - always a good idea!
#
#       Once you know these numbers I would hard-code them so you
#       don't need to type any command line options...
#       Check out lines 82 and 83.
#
#       You will be prompted for your login and password - which I'd
#       also hard code on lines 121 & 122.
#
#       Enjoy!
