Networking Administration has finished upgrading all of the 278 modems making up the
Springfield pools and the 23 modems in the West Plains pool. Similar upgrades are
under study for Mt. Grove users.
Users should be able to log on to Missouri State University without needing the script file. Please
note, if you currently use a script file or other connection method, it should work
without changes.
Simply create a new dial up network connection icon, filling in the appropriate phone
number, user name and password information. Please refer to the
dial
up instructions if you need help in creating a connection icon.
The servers are all configured to use a connection authentication method called PAP.
Microsoft Windows 95, 98, and NT will all user this method of authentication
provided that the user actually fills out a User Name and Password correctly and that the
user does not have the "open dialog box after connecting" box
checked. For this reason, we suggest simply creating another connection. The
dial up
instructions provided by User Support may refer to other connection
management software or utilities. These optional components can better help users
manage their connections and perform redundant tasks such as redialing.
