Configure DUN as Internet Connection
When connecting to your Internet Service Provider (ISP), a few more items need to be defined as part of your Internet connection:
The additional Setup-windows are accessed via the "More" drop-down list:
![]() | In the "Edit Phonebook Entry": tab: "Basics": it is just a repeat of the main-window. |
![]() | The tab:"Server" requires much more attention: define as "Dial-Up Server Type:" "PPP: WinNT, Internet" Select as protocol ONLY "TCP/IP" and define the "TCP/IP" values, which are usually to get the IP-address assigned by the Server. In most cases, you need to define the IP-addresses of the DNS-server (this are the Values for CompuServe, for your own Internet connection, check with your ISP for the details). |
![]() | To avoid to have to enter manually your identification on connection to the Internet, use a Script. For CompuServe, it is already included with Windows NT4. For other ISP's: check with your ISP for the required script. |
![]() | Check the tab:"Security". Again: this info has to be supplied by your ISP. |
![]() | The "Logon Preferences" allow to define some of the behavior of the Dial-Up Windows. I like to put also a Check-Mark on "Close on Dial" |
That should be all.
you are now ready to make your connection to the Internet.
![]() | Dialing out via DUN to the Internet |
