1. What OS are your users using ? Windows 95 ? Unix ?
I tried dialing into my NT server using a Linux machine. The modems
connected. However, there was no active user present, as reported by RAS
Admin. Neither was there any login prompt presented on the Linux machine's
side.
Found out in Microsoft's Knowledge Base that there IS actually problems
with Unix machines dialing into NT. The solution ? Forgot. Just look it up
there.
When I tried calling the NT server with Windows 95, it worked. No problem
at all.
2. Have these users been granted dialin permissions ?
3. What protocol did these users use to dial into your NT RAS server ? PPP
or something else ( SLIP, CSLIP, etc..) ( Look at their Dial-Up Networking
and see the Server property tab ) ?
NT only supports PPP for dial-in users.
4. What protocols were these users intending to use ? If they were planning
to be part of your network and browse your network resources ( drives,
printers ), they would be using NetBEUI or IPX, aside from TCP/IP. Have
you enabled these protocols in your NT server ? If not, go to Control Panel
| Network | Services | Remote Access Service | Network and enable these
protocols.
