How to Install and Configure Windows NT 4.0 Dial-Up
Networking
Summary: This article describes how to install and configure Windows NT
4.0 Dial- Up Networking (DUN) and the Remote Access Service (RAS) client for a
connection to a Windows NT or third-party RAS Server.
Installing Dial-Up Networking and Remote Access Service
To install DUN and RAS on your Windows NT 4.0-based computer, follow these
steps:
- Click Start, point to Programs, point to Accessories, and then
click Dial-Up Networking.
- Click Install. When you are prompted, type the location of the
Windows NT 4.0 installation files.
NOTE: If you are not prompted to install Dial-Up Networking, DUN
and RAS have already been installed. Skip to the "Configuring Dial-Up
Networking" section in this article.
If you have not installed a RAS-capable device, the Remote Access Setup
program prompts you to invoke the Modem installer. Click Yes and follow
the instructions to install a modem.
- In the list of RAS-capable devices, click the modem you just
installed, and then click OK.
- Click Configure, click Dial Out Only, and then click OK.
- Click Network, click the check boxes of the protocols to use
for your connection to select them, and then click OK.
NOTE: The protocols that are currently installed are
selected by default.
If you choose a protocol that is not currently installed, you must
install that protocol using the Network tool in Control Panel.
Click Continue, and then click Restart to restart your computer and finish
the installation.
Configuring Dial-Up Networking
To configure DUN to make a connection to a Windows NT or third-party RAS
server, follow these steps:
- Click Start, point to Programs, point to Accessories, and then
click Dial-Up Networking.
- By default, there are no entries in the phone book. Click OK
to add a new entry. If you are reinstalling DUN, there may be existing
phone book entries. To create a new entry, click New.
- Type a name for the phone book entry to identify your
connection, and then click Next.
- Click any of the check boxes that apply for this connection to
select them, and then click Next. If you are unsure whether any of these
check boxes apply, see the RAS server administrator.
- Type the phone number for the RAS server, click Next, and then
click Finish.
- Click Dial to connect.
