================================NetScape==============================

The latest free distribution of netscape can be downloaded from the site
http://www.netscape.com/ using a standard browser like lynx or any
version of netscape or internet explorer.

Installation of the netscape package is completely automatic. It will
work after installation, provided internet explorer already works. As a
first start on getting networking to work, it suffices to get internet
explorer to function.


================================Networking==============================

To invoke networking under win95, begin with the START menu, then choose
SETTINGS and CONTROL PANEL and finally NETWORK. On the NETWORK screen,
choose ADD and arrange for CLIENTS and PROTOCOL additions until the main
screen contains exactly these items:

        Client for Microsoft Networks
        Dialup Adaptor
        IPX/SPX-compatible Protocol
        TCP/IP

The first is required in order to save passwords used for remote dialup.
The third is used for possible direct cable connections under win95, a
method to move software onto your machine, or to back up the hard disk
to another win95 computer. The fourth item is for dialup PPP to an
internet service provider, like annex.math.utah.edu.

Most people will want a blank password to be recorded in win95. This
allows public use of a win95 machine in a household and the simplest
unattended boot process for win95. This password has nothing to do with
a unix password at math.utah.edu.

============================Dial-Up Networking==========================

The connection wizard in the Dial-Up Networking folder is started in
order to make a connection icon to annex.math.utah.edu.

Give it a name like UofU8105 to match the phone number 581-8105. Choose
a modem like "Standard 28800 bps Modem", even if you have a 33.6 modem.
If nothing like this is offered, then go back to the control panel,
modems, and browse until you install it. The modem properties, offered
under "Configure":

        General         Select the COM port, and 115000 bps.
        Connection      Select 8, None, 1, hardware flow.
        Options         Don't check anything.

Choose area code blank, phone number 5818105 or 5818861 and country code
for the USA. Click on "Finish". Click on the newly created connection,
and then on "Properties" under the file menu. You will see these
possible screens:

        General         Already set above.

        Server Types    Check IPX/SPX and TCP/IP only. Under SETTINGS
                        enter DNS 128.110.198.2 and 128.110.124.120.
                        Check server assigned IP, IP header compression
                        and default gateway.

        Scripting       Browse for file Pppmenu, the open it, and edit
                        it, changing only "3^M" to "ppp^M" (only one
                        place to edit). Uncheck "Step through script"
                        and check "Start minimized".

                        Hint: If Scripting does not appear, then you
                        have an old version of Win95. Upgrade your
                        networking software from www.microsoft.com,
                        getting the file MSISDN*.EXE, by searching for
                        the string ISDN at this site.


To start and test the connection, double-click the new entry just
finished. It should log onto annex.math.utah.edu and establish a ppp
connection, all without your intervention. After it works once, then
click again on the connection, then on "Connections" in the dialup
networking menu, then SETTINGS. Turn off everything, then set REDIAL and
also "Don't prompt". Save it. Then logon to annex is automatic, by just
double-click of the connection entry in Dialup Networking. To make it
convenient, build a shortcut on the desktop.
