ok, I thought there would be something with a user interface ( commandline is
ok when you know what you do, but as first try ? )

yes I've seen that the node programm is quite complex, but I think it's mostly
for other people connecting me, and not for me using a box

My fault, I missed to say that I tried GP on my girlfriends computer, a 486/33.
I'm using an TNC2H on a 586/60 (the exchange for my 486, one day I realised
that he commited suicide :-( ) But if I can work with call, there is no need
for dosemu because GP would be the only program to run in dosemu. I'll start
learnig "the call" now :-)

Thanks for Info,
Ingo
