8) well as Jake said if it works on the win95 then it's probably not a PM
issue ... and I dunno about the guys over on isp-nt, not many use PMs,
most rather play with rras and similar.
Looking at it, IP works but DNS doesn't. Where are you putting the DNS
info? Are you using PAP? Are you using dynamically set DNS servers?
If you go into the configuration for the RAS it should be set to
automagically grab these. What you haven't noted is if this workstation
is standalone or part of a network. Does this network have DNS?
A place to look would be on the M$ site, you could try this:
http://support.microsoft.com/support/ntworkstation/serviceware/ntw40/E9JVWXODS.ASP
or try this first:
http://support.microsoft.com/support/kb/articles/Q163/3/91.asp
a few minutes of searching in an appropriate place is conducive to
expanding your knowledgebase (another way of saying did you STFW ;)
