Was finally able to get the portmaster to call out, the phone on the end it
was calling rang... I then got it to call and my laptop running NT4
answered.
But then nothing... I have been reading the docs (I actually have) and I'm
stuck... I'm just not strong enough with the networking details, and I am
wondering how to:
1) Make the portmaster call a box running Windows NT 4 on a dedicated
basis... i.e. we have a dedicated customer with ISDN and we want the
portmaster to connect to them and should the connection drop, continue to
dial them until it it re-establishes the link.
2) Set it up so that the when the customer calls in, the portmaster will
return their call.
3) Is there a way to do call backs where the machine called is a Win9x box?
Using the MS PLus Dial-up Server or???
It is my understanding this is done via the creation of a location, and then
depending on the connection type (call back or we call them dedicated) you
set the Type to On Demand or continuous.
This is the current location I have though there is no callback occurring.
pm1> show loc SMB

This user does in fact have an account on my machine with dial-in provs. but
no go.... I know there must be something flaky with my network setup here,
so let the abuse begin... as long as you also give the help abuse is
welcomed :)
Thanks a million!
