Setting up PPP under Win 95

Tom Kelly was gracious enough to provide the following information on how to set up PPP on Win 95 computers.

  Thanks for your response to my query regarding PPP access.  Enough of you
  have expressed an interest in connecting using Win95 so here are some
  instructions to follow when setting up for this connection.
  
  First check your network configuration.
  
  Start->Settings->Control Panel->Network
  
    Configuration
    
    	The following network components are installed:
    	
 -You should see
  	
  	Dial-Up Adapter
  	TCP/IP->Dial-Up Adapter
  
  If so go to Make New Connection.	
  If not, 
  
  	Add...->Adapter->Select Net Adapter
  	
  	Microsoft		Dial-Up Adapter
  	
  	OK
  	
  for simplicity sake, you may optionally remove any clients for microsoft
  and netware networking, and any protocols for IPX/SPX and NetBEUI.  
  
  Then
  
  	Add...->Protocol
  	
  	Microsoft		TCP/IP
  	
  	OK
  	
  Exit network Control Panel and reboot	
    	
Make New Connection:

  Double Click My Desktop->Dial-Up networking -> Make new connection
  Follow prompts supplying name, phone number, finish.
  
  Now select the new connection and go into properties under the File menu.
  
  Under Connect Using: standard modem (or your type)
  
  	Configure-> connection: 8bits, no parity, 1 stop bit
  		    Advanced ->Flow Control, hardware
   
  	Server Type - type of Dial-Up: PPP:Win95...
  		      advanced options select Logon to Network &
  		      		      	      Enable Software Compression
  		      Allowed Protocols:  TCP/IP
  		         TCP/IP settings:  Server Assigned IP address
  		         		   Server Assigned name server
  		            		   Use IP Header Compression
  		            		   Use default gateway on remote network
  		            		   
  Now exit out of properties setup, double click new connection,
  
  Provide your PIRL account username and password (remember your caps)
  after some negotiating you should see info box showing connection time,
  a Lame Windows Login box prompts for a user and pword just cancel out,
  we don't need no stinkin' windows login to run PPP from PIRL.
  
  Once you have established a connection, you can safely run microsoft ftp
  and telnet, and netscape.  Telnet and ftp seem to need expanded hostnames
  ie. titan.lpl.arizona.edu.
  
  Well, wasn't that fun AND easy?!  If you need help or have questions of
  course I'll be glad to, but try this first and record any errors.
  
  If you like I would be happy to demonstrate how simple all this is really,
  on the PC in Room 410.
  
  good luck, be happy
