Only you and your friend connecting?...No network environment?<br>
<br>
Q. How do I connect two Workstations using RAS?<br>
<br>
A. NT Workstation supports one inbound RAS connection so one NT station will be the RAS server, and one will be the client. The procedure below is what I did to connect two machines.<br>
<br>
Server<br>
<br>
If RAS is already installed <br>
<br>
Goto Control Panel, and double click Network <br>
Goto Services and click on “Remote Access Server”, and click Properties <br>
Click on the Port and click Configure <br>
Select “Dial Out and Receive” or just Receive <br>
Click Continue <br>
Select if user can access Just Computer or Entire Network for NetBEUI <br>
Click Continue and fill in details for TCP/IP, For this setup we will assume the dial in client will have a TCP/IP address so check the box “Allow clients to use preconfigured address” <br>
Click OK and then close <br>
You will then be prompted to restart the computer <br>
If RAS is not already installed, goto “My Computer” and double click “Dial-up Networking”, it will then detect your modem and then take you to step 3 as above.<br>
<br>
Client<br>
<br>
This assumes RAS is not installed <br>
<br>
Goto “My Computer”, and double click “Dial-up Network” <br>
You will be asked for the NT CD, and it will install Modem and RAS <br>
It will then detect any modems, once the modem has been found click continue <br>
It will then say the phone book is empty and you should add an entry. Give a name and select “Next” (do not select “I know about modem properties” unless you do”) <br>
Select “I am calling the Internet” and click Next <br>
Enter the phone number and click Next, then click Finish <br>
Select the entry, and click More, select Edit Entry <br>
Goto server Tab, and check NetBEUI and TCP/IP. Click TCP/IP details and fill in then press OK. Finally click OK again. <br>
Select the PhoneBook entry and click Dial. <br>
The first time you connect you will have to supply a username, password and domain (select “save password” so this information does not have to be entered again).
