Installing the Remote Access Service
|
|
|
|
1. Insert the Remote Access installation disk in drive A.
|
|
2. Type a:\setup. The Setup box appears on the screen.
|
|
3. Choose Install. The system installs the files and the Add COM Port box
|
|
appears on the screen.
|
|
4. Specify a port number (internal modems are usually set to COM2) and
|
|
choose OK. The Configuration box appears on the screen.
|
|
5. Choose one or more of the following:
|
|
- To accept the configuration defaults as indicated on the screen, go
|
|
directly to step 6.
|
|
- To configure an additional COM port for Remote Access, choose
|
|
Add Port and specify the number.
|
|
- To change the modem type, choose Select Modem and select your modem
|
|
type.
|
|
- To use your computer's network adapter card and modem at the same
|
|
time, select the appropriate option button. This applies only to
|
|
dual-role computers (computers that have both a network adapter card
|
|
and a modem) that are running DOS and Microsoft LAN Manager Enhanced.
|
|
|
|
6. Choose OK. The Install Complete box appears on the screen.
|
|
7. Restart your computer.
|
|
|
|
For additional instructions use Setup Help or contact your system
|
|
administrator.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Connecting to the Network
|
|
|
|
If you are running DOS and LAN Manager Enhanced on a dual-role computer,
|
|
start at step1. If you are running DOS and any other configuration, start
|
|
at step 2. If you are running OS/2 start at step 3.
|
|
|
|
1. Type unload protocol.
|
|
2. Type rasload to load the Remote Access drivers.
|
|
3. Type rasphone to open the Phone Book.
|
|
4. Create and save a Phone Book entry (use Help).
|
|
5. Connect to the network (use Help).
|
|
|
|
Note: If you plan to run the Microsoft Windows (TM) graphical environment,
|
|
you must load the Remote Access drivers before starting the Windows
|
|
environment.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Using the Network
|
|
|
|
You can now use the network exactly as if you were in your office.
|
|
|
|
Important: You can access data files across the telephone connection,
|
|
but loading software programs across the network (that is, across
|
|
the telephone line) will cause extremely long delays. Contact your
|
|
system administrator for more details.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Disconnecting from the Network
|
|
|
|
1. Type rasphone to open the Phone Book.
|
|
2. From the Dial menu, choose Disconnect.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Unloading Remote Access Drivers
|
|
|
|
If you are running DOS and LAN Manager Enhanced on a dual-role computer,
|
|
you should unload the Remote Access drivers prior to switching from your
|
|
modem to your network adapter card, or vice versa. If you are running
|
|
any other DOS configuration, unloading the Remote Access drivers will free
|
|
up memory that may be needed to run other applications. To unload the
|
|
Remote Access drivers:
|
|
|
|
Type rasload /u.
|
|
|
|
|

Troubleshooting
|
|
|
|
Network Access Problems
|
|
|
|
If you are denied access to your network, contact your system administrator.
|
|
You may not have a valid user account on your LAN Manager network, or you
|
|
may not have permission to dial in.
|
|
|
|
Connection and Response Problems
|
|
|
|
If the Remote Access server is not responding, one or more of the following
|
|
may be true:
|
|
|
|
- The Remote Access server is not running. Contact your system administrator.
|
|
- You are using an incompatible version of the Remote Access software.
|
|
Contact your system administrator.
|
|
- The modem on the Remote Access server has been turned off. Contact your
|
|
system administrator.
|
|
- Your modem and/or modem configurations are incompatible with the modem on
|
|
the Remote Access server. Contact your system administrator.
|
|
- Your hotel room telephone line cannot accommodate your current modem speed.
|
|
Use a lower baud rate or contact the hotel manager to request a direct
|
|
line.
|
|
- You specified the wrong telephone number. Update your Phone Book entry and
|
|
redial.
|
|
- You did not specify a special number that gives you an outside line. For
|
|
example, some businesses and hotels require you to dial 9 before dialing
|
|
your number.
|
|
- There is static on the telephone line. Contact your phone service provider.
|
|
|
|
Modem Problems
|
|
|
|
If your modem is not responding properly, one of the following may be true:
|
|
|
|
- Your modem has been turned off or unplugged.
|
|
- Your modem is not properly connected to your computer.
|
|
- Your modem is in an inconsistent state. Restart or reset your modem and
|
|
redial.
|
|
- Your modem and/or modem cables are defective or not compatible for use with
|
|
Remote Access. Contact your system administrator.
|
|
- Your modem is not configured correctly. See your modem user guide or
|
|
contact your system administrator.
|
|
|
|
If your modem connects at a lower baud rate than you specified, the Remote
|
|
Access server may have a modem type different from what you are using.
|
|
Contact your system administrator.
|
|
|
|
Unloading Problems (DOS Remote Access Drivers Only)
|
|
|
|
If you encounter problems when unloading the Remote Access drivers, one of
|
|
the following may be true:
|
|
|
|
- A telephone connection still exists. The Remote Access drivers will not
|
|
unload if a telephone connection exists. This protects you from accidently
|
|
hanging up a connection and losing data. Save your data files, disconnect
|
|
the phone line, and then try the rasload /u command again.
|
|
- You have an incorrect TSR unloading order. The Remote Access drivers will
|
|
not unload if you load a terminate-and-stay-resident (TSR) program or
|
|
start the Workstation service after typing rasload. Ensure that your
|
|
loading order is correct.
|
|
|
|
Net805 Error
|
|
|
|
One likely cause of this error is the following incorrect settings in MODEMS.INF:
|
|
|
|
- Port-to-modem speed (DTE speed) is higher than modem-to-modem speed (DCE
|
|
speed), and
|
|
- Flow control is OFF.
|
|
|
|
To correct the configuration, make one of the following adjustments:
|
|
|
|
- If you want flow control to be OFF, set the DTE speed and the DCE speed
|
|
to the same value, or
|
|
- If you want to enable compression, set the flow control value to ON.
