This procedure details how to set up dial-up networking for a computer running Windows NT 4.0 Workstation. These are the steps needed to connect to Eriecoast.com via PPP using a standard modem and with your IP address assigned dynamically.
Installing Windows NT 4.0 network components
- Install the networking components during the installation of NT 4.0. When going through the network installation section, the components should be configured as follows:
- Check the box indicating that the computer will be connected via "Remote Access." Select "The computer will connect to the network using a modem." Do not select "Connection will be with an ISDN line or network adapter."
- Do not select a network
adapter card. Simply go past this section.
Install RAS and have it install your modem. It may be better to not let the install program detect a modem, but to choose from the modem list. - Install TCP/IP protocol only. Install the listed network services.
- After you have finished installing NT 4.0
Setting up dial-up networking
- Open "My Computer" and open "Dial-up networking." Follow the set-up wizard and enter information for the phonebook (Eriecoast , 244-3561 [Lorain] 323-4444 [Elyria]). When finished, click "More", then "Edit entry and Modem Properties."
- In Server menu, select TCP/IP network protocol only. The "Dial-up Server Type" should be: PPP, WindowsNT,Windows95Plus.
- Select "Enable software
compression" and "PPP LCP extensions."
Select "None" for after-dialing script. - In TCP/IP settings, select "Server assigned IP address." Select "Server assigned name server addresses". Select "Use IP header compression" and "Use default gateway on remote network."
- Do not change defaults
for X.25, but select "Accept any authentication, includung clear
text" under Security. Connecting to Eriecoast.com
After the dial-up is finished you may wish to place a shortcut to it on the desktop. - Open "Dial-up networking." Enter "Login name" and "Password." These are case-sensitive. Click on "Save password." Leave the "Domain" field blank.
- Click "OK" to start the login procedure. You should hear the modem dialing now.
- The NT dial-up will then
finish logging you on. You should see a connection message giving
you your connects peed. You're done! Feel free to launch your favorite
winsock Internet program.
