Windows NT Workstation (version 4.0) and my modem are installed, now how do I setup the DialUp Networking feature?

DialUp Networking installer is automatically included in every install of Windows NT (both server and workstation versions). To initially install the DialUp Networking:

1. Double-click the My Computer icon on your desktop.
2. Double-click the DialUp Networking icon.
3. If DialUp Networking is not installed, a dialog box is displayed containing important information and the words "dialup networking is uninstalled".
4. To install, click the Install button.
5. The "wizard" walks you quickly through the configuration process. When prompted, click Browse and find the Windows NT Workstation CD on your system. The installer will do the rest.
6. Restart your computer when prompted.

How do I configure the DialUp Networking to access CRU RAS (Remote Access Server)?

2. Double-click the DialUp Networking icon - a dialog box is displayed.
3. Click on the New button.
4. Type in a unique name for this connection in Name the phonebook entry field (i.e., CRU_RAS). Click Next.
5. Click on the checkbox to the left of "The non-Windows NT server I am calling expects me to type login information after connecting, or to know TCP/IP addresses before dialing." Click Next.
6. Type in the phone number (the prefixes used to access an outside line [i.e., 9,] can be entered here or in the modem settings). Click Next.
7. The PPP (Point-to-Point) should be selected, if not, click on the circle to select. Click Next.
8. Leave None selected in the next dialog box, click Next.
9. Leave the IP address at all zeroes (0.0.0.0), click Next.
10. Type in the DNS Server 134.121.2.54. Type in the WINS Server 134.121.6.5 or 134.121.6.4 (either can be used). Click Next.

How do I connect to CRU RAS?

1. Double-click on the My Computer icon on your desktop.
2. Double-click on the DialUp Network icon.
3. Find the configuration you want (use the down arrow to the right of the name field to display all of the configurations your workstation has) and highlight.
4. Click the Dial button.
5. A user/password dialog box is displayed. Make sure the userid and password are correct and click the Connect button.
6. The modem dials and connects.
7. Once connected, a dialog appears indicating that your ID and password are being verified. If successful, your connection time will begin counting the seconds.
8. The Dial-Up Networking monitor appears minimized in the lower right of the desktop task bar. When the connection is complete, a dialog box appears, click OK to continue.
9. You are ready to start Netscape, Internet Explorer, Telnet, FTP, or whichever Internet access applications you wish. The newer versions of Netscape (version 3.x or higher), Eudora (version 3.x or higher), and Internet Explorer can be set up to automatically use a dialup connection instead of using this process. Check your settings, options, or configurations to see if this can be accomplished.
10. When you are done exploring the Internet, exit the application, and click on the Dial-Up Netowrking monitor icon and click on Hangup.
