By default, on installation, the client installation disk for Small
Business Server (SBS) removes the Dial-Up Networking (DUN) component from
Windows 95 and Windows 98 clients. If a client wants to use a local modem
or modem-sharing to connect to an ISP for local use, dial-up networking
will have to reinstalled.

To install a modem that is shared on the Small Business Server computer:
| 1. | Click Start, click Settings, and then click Control Panel. |
| 2. | Double-click Modems. |
| 3. | If no modem is currently installed, you will see the Install New Modem
Wizard; allow the wizard to detect the modem.
-or-
If another modem is already installed you will see the Modem Properties

You can now configure dial-up networking to use a local modem (if
installed) or the shared modem from the server.

Special Considerations
If you intend to use dial-up networking on a SBS client computer to connect
to another IP network, you will need to disable the WinSock Proxy Client in
Control Panel and then restart the computer before making a DUN connection
to be able to send and receive information properly.
