Its very close to working but the chat script is not working. When I try and change the script I get an error about not recognizing "-V" or "-f"????
If anyone has another chat sample, thanks!
Post time:04/03/2009 19:52 By:admin Title: From admin
I guess in conf/verizon edit the line that with "chat ..." and remove "-V"
