  Greetings to all,

  This is to announce the release of xisp version 2.1, an X11 visual
 interface to pppd/chat, in other words, an X11 dialup networking
 tool for Linux. The .lsm entry is included below. Everything is in
 sunsite.unc.edu:/incoming/Linux and argeas.argos.hol.gr:/incoming
 right now but it should appear in the proper locations shortly.
 To compile this latest version you need version 0.86 of xforms.
 If you want to check out the features/capabilities of xisp on the
 web, please visit http://users.hol.gr/~dbouras.


 What's new in version 2.1:

  - Automatic DNS server support; primary and secondary server
    IP addresses entered from within xisp.
  - Support for PAP/CHAP logins using /etc/pap-secrets or
    /etc/chap-secrets.
  - User-selectable connect wait, call-back delay and modem
    reset string.
  - New options (-geometry and -iconic) for xisp window geometry
    and placement.
  - Greatly improved responsiveness for browser window and manual
    login terminal.


 For more detailed information please refer to the documentation
 files in the distribution. Send bug reports/enhancements/suggestions
 to dbouras at hol.gr.

 With greetings from sunny Athens, Greece,

  Dimitri
