Connecting to tdl from Windows NT

Open the group "Main" and open the "Control Panel," click on "Network." Click on "Add Software Packages."
Select and install RAS (Remote Access Service).
Install the TCP/IP package.
Unselect the NetBUI, and only keep the "TCP/IP" box selected. Don't worry about configuring anything yet.
You will be prompted to re-boot, say "No."

Before rebooting, backup your "\winnt\system32\ras\switch.inf" file, because you need to overwrite it with the following script:

---- BEGIN switch.inf file (for use with tdl.com) -----

[Auto-login for NT]
; Wait until we get the "login:" prompt
COMMAND=
OK=<match>"ogin:"
LOOP=<ignore>

; Give the account and wait for "password:" prompt

COMMAND=<username><cr>
OK=<match>"assword:"
LOOP=<ignore>

; Give the password and ignore response (we're done)
COMMAND=<password><cr>
OK=<ignore>
----End switch.inf----

Reboot.
Click on the new group called "Remote Access Service."
Double click the Remote Access icon.
Click on Add. You want to add the phone number to dial.
Click on modem. Change things accordingly.
Click on Network.
- Only select TCP/IP, then click on settings.
- "Require specific IP address." Enter your IP address
- -or- have your IP address assigned by your IPS.
- Also enter the Domain Name Server IP.
Click OK twice, then click on "security". Select "Accept any authentication including clear text. For Terminal or Script section, leave "Before dialing" to "none", but for "After dialing", choose the " Auto-login for NT " Which you created in the switch.inf file.
Click OK twice and you are there.
Under the Options menu, "redial settings", put 0 for redial time in between or something, so it redials fast...
