[En-Nut-Discussion] Ppp user/pass

[Lorenzo Lombardo]

I don't know what PPPCOM stands for, so I assume that it is a string as 
well.

#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string.h>
char *pppStr, pppCom[16], pppUser[16], pppPassword[16];

<code>

//we are going to make the mem space for the string that is the length of 
every string plus 1 (because of the null char at the end of them) plus 6 
(because "ppp:" and the two slashes are 6 chars)
pppStr = (char *) malloc(strlen(pppCom) + strlen(pppUser) + 
strlen(pppPassword) + 9);
//composing the string
sprintf(pppStr, "ppp:%s/%s/%s", pppCom, pppUser, pppPassword);
//now the string is ready to be passed the the _open function
_open(pppStr, _O_RDWR | _O_BINARY))
//it's important that if you don't use pppStr anymore you have to free the 
mem space so...
free(pppStr);

<code>

If pppCom isn't a string then you have to change the "strlen(pppCom)" thing 
with the size of the variable you're using and change the proper argument in 
the sprintf function.
Hope this helps,
    Lorenzo
