    Question Setting up dial up server (???)

    Suppose there's a server with a connection to the Internet already in place. Now if I wish to dialup to this server from a remote location, will I have to install something to make it a dial up server?

    After it's possible to dialup to this internet-connected server, what or how do I have to configure it so that the remote computer can also connect to the Internet?

    If I'm unclear on something, plz make me clear.

    Thanks.

    Windows 2000 Pro/Server has this functionality built in - you pretty much just need to install a modem turn in on. For Pro you can run the "Add Network Connection" Wizard, IIRC.

    What OS are you running?

    Server is connected via a satellite connection, and will run either Win 98 or Win 2k.

    Thanks for the info JoshT...

    So this means, any connection to that server will be connected to the Internet?

    Yeah, I've had no problem setting up dial up servers on PCs connected to my LAN.
