3. KNOWN ISSUES WITH MICROSOFT CONNECTION MANAGER 1.3
----------------------------------------------------------------------
* If you are running Windows NT 4.0, you must manually configure
Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol (PPTP) for your virtual private
network (VPN). To configure PPTP for VPN on Windows NT 4.0:
1. Click Start, point to Settings, click Control Panel, and then
double-click Network.
2. On the Protocols tab, click Add, and then click Point To Point
Tunneling Protocol.
3. Click OK.
4. In Number of Virtual Private Networks, enter 1.
5. In the Remote Access Setup window, click Add.
6. In the Add RAS Device dialog box, select VPN1 - RASPPTPM, and
then click OK.
7. Select VPN1, and then click Configure.
8. In the Configure Port Usage dialog box, select Dial-Out Only, if
it is not already selected, and then click OK.
9. Click Network and make sure that TCP/IP is selected and then
complete the installation.
* If you are running Windows NT 4.0 and are using a Connection Manager
service profile that requires Dial-up Scripting, you must install
Windows NT Service Pack 6a or later. It is recommended that you install
the latest upgrade (currently Window NT Service Pack 6a). If you have
problems with Connection Manager that you cannot resolve using the
Connection Manager troubleshooting Help, uninstall RAS, re-install it,
and then re-install the Windows NT service pack. Verify in RAS that
VPN1 is configured for "Dial-Out Only." (See the above procedure for
the method for configuring VPN1.)
* On Windows NT 4.0, if you try to establish more than one connection,
you might see the message, "The modem (or other connecting device) is
already in use or is not configured properly." This sometimes happens
if you try to dial too quickly, or if you start Connection Manager
when a connection has already been established using Dial-Up Networking.
Use one connection at a time.
* If you are running Windows NT 4.0 and you change the Disconnect
If Idle setting, the change will not take effect until you quit
Connection Manager and restart it.
* If you want to install a Connection Manager service profile on a
computer running Windows 98, you should uninstall the VPN1 adapter
before installing Connection Manager 1.3. Connection Manager installs
it but may not be able to reinstall over an existing VPN adapter.
* Connection Manager does not support displaying a terminal window except
on Windows Whistler.
* If you are using Windows CE Services, you must use version 3.0
(ActiveSync 3.0) or greater.
* When you install a version 1.0 Connection Manager profile on a Windows
2000 or Windows Whistler computer, you will receive an error which states
?The dynamic link library MSVCRT20.dll could not be found in the
specified path ??. Installation of the profile will succeed, but
you will have to depress F5 (function key 5) or restart your computer
for the desktop icon to display.
* Connection Manager only supports single channel ISDN, except on
Windows 2000, Windows Millennium and Windows Whistler, where the
Administrator has specifically configured the service profile for
dual channel ISDN. The Bandwidth Allocation Protocol (BAP) is not
supported.
* Connection Manager 1.3 is currently unable to update the Connection
Manager binaries that shipped as a part of Windows 2000. Thus Connection
Manager 1.3 profiles installed on Windows 2000 will not be able to
take advantage of features that were not available in the Windows 2000
version of Connection Manager, although the profiles will otherwise work
normally.
* In this beta release, the new logging feature is not supported when
using a Connection Manager profile to log on to Windows.
