The Internet 'Wizard' in MacOS 8 sets most of these control panels for you. However, the 'wizard' partly assume that you are using a commercial Internet Provider.
PPP Control Panel. The OUHSC Server accessed
from 271 8670 performs authentication so a connection script is no
longer required. Choose 'Registered User', enter your name and
password, check 'Save Password' and enter the access telephone
number. NOTE: The 'OUHSC\' NT domain name is no longer required in
the Name field!!!
This information can be entered in the older Config PPP control panel
by selecting the Authentication... option
instead of the Connect Script... option.
Once all the control panels are set-up properly you will
return to this control and press the 'Connect' button to make the PPP
connection.
Click Options... to open up the Options Dialog. Many of these settings can be left unchanged.
The 'Redialing' option can be used to set an alternate number or other redial options.
The 'Connection' options can be altered to refine the connection settings but can be left unchanged.
The 'Protocol' options can also be left unchanged. The 'Connect to a command-line host:' and 'Use terminal window' can be useful for diagnosing connection problems EXCEPT when authentication is being used...as with the OUHSC PPP server through the 271-8670 number!
The
Modem control panel can be opened from the PPP
menu
The TCP/IP control panel can be opened from the PPP menu
Modem Control Panel. This
control panel is used to select the model script file. THIS IS
IMPORTANT. Using the wrong modem script will give poor to bad
results. Select your modem from the pop-up menu. Your modem is in the
list?
TCP/IP Control Panel. Select
'PPP' as the connection method and 'Configure' using the PPP Server.
The OUHSC PPP server will assign the IP Address and other TCP/IP
settings as shown below. You should however enter the Name server
address. The numbers shown are the OUHSC domain name servers
(157.142.8.2 and 157.142.41.2). 'ouhsc.edu' can be entered as the
search domain name.
The 'Option...' button leads to the dialog below. TCP/IP should be 'Active'. The 'Load only when needed' may need to be unchecked. There have been reported problems with this item checked but it seems to be working ok with system 7.6.1 :-).
When every thing is set up and a connection is made the PPP Control Panel with display the designated IP number and connection speed. Click on the 'Disconnect' button to close the connection.
