Very intriguing application, if I understand you correctly.

Unfortunately, the alleged PPP server in the Plus Pack isn't a full PPP
implementation. This whole client/server distinction is really false.

I think you're going to need Trumpet, which I believe can support this
with a script that sets the right S-registers. Assuming what you're
talking about is dialback for security of lower phone rates, and that
yu're not expecting Win95 to route onto your LAN, which it can't do.

Some stuff is in the FAQ, and there's a link to the Windows Comm FAQ.
What you're trying to do would be over my head, though.

Windows 95 can only act as client not server.

TechSmith Corporation markets the Foray PPP Server.  This server can run on
a DOS machine (or you can boot your Work Win95 machine into the server when
you go home).  It is a full multiprotocol (IP and IPX) PPP server.  It
supports Win95 compatible callback (as well as other Microsoft extensions)
so your home win95 machine will get a nice little popup window asking if you
want to be called back.  It is RFC compliant and works with almost all other
PPP "clients".

You can download an evaluation copy or find out more at:

Hope this helps!

After installing the MS-PLUS! to Win'95 there has been added a
menu point to the Dial-Up Networking under Connections.
It is called "Dial-Up Server".

I want to use this Dial-Up Server to ansver and hold
incomming calls from SCO UNIX machine that dials up to
establish a PPP connection using MorningStar PPP.

In the Win'95 Dial-Up Server I can choose "Type of
Dial-Up Server" to be "PPP:Windows 95, Windows NT 3.5,
Internet".

When the SCO UNIX machine dials the Win'95 the Dial-Up
Server ansvers the call and the status is set to
answering. But after a short while it hangs up.

In MorningStar PPP I can specify what must be sent to login to a
remote machine.

My Problem is that I don't know what to send to the
Win'95 Dial-Up Server to login and keep the PPP connection
alive ?

I want to use this facility to let the SCO UNIX call-back to my
Win'95.

Do you have any suggestions what I can do ?

My understanding was '95 could handle server functions

If I read the windows resource kit correctly, IP is *not* supported
by the Windows 95 dialup server, it only does IPX, NetBEUI and Microsoft RAS

: Where do you find the 'windows resource kit'.  Is it on the Plus CD?

It is a book published by Microsoft and includes software for setting up and
administering a Windows 95 network.  It was intended to be read before you
started moving to Windows 95.  It is probably worth the money.  The early
part of the book has a time-line of 18 weeks to be up and running Windows
95 in a business environment.  Anyone who read the book first, might not
upgrade for that reason.  Maybe big businesses are really that slow.  Or
maybe the time-line projection was a virus.

What I meant was, as far as I can see the opposite, namely that I want
the SCO to call back to the Win'95 system.

But thanks for your reply !

You can chose the Dial-Up Server's "protocol" to be PPP.

It is in the MS-PLUS! package for Win'95.

Just to add to that ... Under Server Tyupes. it list one as "PPP:
Windows95,WindowsNT,Internet

I haven't tried it, but it looks like the capability might well be
there.

Where do you find the 'windows resource kit'.  Is it on the Plus CD?

And then the logical second question is, is there software out there
to do the IP connection?

You can order the Win 95, Win NT, & MS Office Resource Kits. They come
with detailed manuals, a cd with utilities, and are one of the best
sources of info for ms products.

You must have the Plus Pack in order to be a server!
