Installing Dial-Up Networking/Remote Access Services

1. Open the "My Computer" icon on the desktop.

2. Double-click on the "Dial-Up Networking" icon within the "My Computer" window. This will start the dial-up networking setup wizard.

3. Insert you Windows NT CD-ROM into the CD-ROM drive when prompted. The setup wizard will then copy a number of software components from this CD-ROM to your computer’s hard disk.

4. When prompted with "There are no RAS capable devices to add. Do you want RAS to invoke the modem installer to enable you to add a modem?", click on the "Yes" button.

5. Select whether or not the Modem installer should attempt to detect your modem (you want to do this in most cases -- otherwise you can select your modem’s manufacturer and model)

6. Enter your "Location Information", comprising the area code from which you will be dialing, dialing prefixes and phone type. Click on the "Next" button when finished.

7. When the "Add RAS Device" window appears, select your modem (if it is not already selected) and then click on the "OK" button.

8. In the "Remote Access Setup Screen" select your modem (again, if it is not already selected) and then click on the "Continue" button.

9. Click on the "Restart" button to restart your system and load the newly-installed software.

Setting up a Dial-Up Networking Connection

1. Double-click on the Dial-Up Networking icon inside the "My Computer" window.

2. Click on the "OK" button when asked if you want to add a phone book entry.

3. Enter "Infobahn" in the "Name of Phone Book Entry:" field. Click on the "Next" button.

4. In the "Server" screen, make sure to check all three of the options "I am calling the Internet", "Send my password in plain text if that’s the only way to connect" and "The non-Windows NY system I am calling requires that you specify TCP/IP addresses before dialing.". Click on the "Next" button.

5. In the "Phone Number" screen, click on the checkbox for "Use Telephony Dialing Properties". Enter the country and area codes for the number you are to dial. Finally, enter the number itself (from the list of dial-up numbers provided). Click on the "Next" button.

6. In the "Serial Line Protocol" screen, select "Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP)", then click on the "Next" button.

7. In the next screen, select "Run this script:" when prompted for the type of login script needed. Select "Generic Login" from the list of scripts given. Click on the "Edit Script" button.

8. A Notepad window should appear with the contents of the generic login file. Look for a line: OK="ogin:". Change this line to OK="):" and then save the contents of the file. Exit Notepad and then click on the "OK" button.

9. In the "IP address" screen, make sure that "0.0.0.0" is entered in the text field (this indicates that the server assigns an IP address). Click on the "Next" button.

10. In the "Name Server Addresses" screen, enter "208.0.145.7" for the "DNS Server". Leave the "WINS Server:" line blank. Click on the "Next" button.
