MD2 Password support for WinPack
--------------------------------
MD2PASS.EXE provides a way of sending an MD2 password to a BBS from a
WinPack script file.
Installation
------------
1. Put MD2PASS.EXE, MD2PASS.CFG and G4IDEMD2.DLL in the
WINPACK\SCRIPTS\PROGRAMS directory.
2. Edit MD2PASS.CFG and put in it your MD2 password string and some
text from the prompt the BBS sends when it asks you for the
password. IT MUST be text from the line that actually contains the
password challenge, my example should make it obvious what to do.
3. Edit the BBS.TXT script file, exactly what it needs to contain
depends on your connection path to the BBS, but it wants to be
something like this:-
SEND C $BBS
WAITCON
RUN MD2PASS
WAITPROMPT
If you usually get a very fast connect to the BBS, you may not need
the WAITCON.
4. Give it a try by using the F2 key in WinPack. You should see
"RUNNING MD2PASS" appear in the Script status window, and, when the
BBS sends the password challenge, it should send back the correct
response to the BBS. If it doesn't send a response at all, check the
prompt line in MD2PASS.CFG. If it sends the wrong response, then the
password string you have put in MD2PASS.CFG is probably not the same
as the one you have registered with the BBS.
