Yes, I have set *everything* up, several times!  Let me give you some more
details.
NT Server 4.0, 64MB RAM
Service Pack 2
Various HotFixes
MS Proxy Server
MS Exchange Server 5 RC1
33k6 Internal Modem.

I've used dial-up networking with another ISP for ages using proxy server
without problems (not even with SP2).  It's just that if I try to connect
to demon, I can't ping anything on the network - not using names, but with
IP addresses.  The only thing I can ping successfully is 158.152.1.222
which is the dial-up server.  It just seems that nothing is getting past
this.
I've tried the hotfixes, with/without LCP extensions and/or header
compression, I've disabled our server's DNS. I've changed the multlink
setting in the registry.
If I could get SLIP to auto-disconnect in RAS (which it doesn't want to do
- PPP does, though) then I wouldn't care much about PPP!!  However, I need
to use Proxy Server to autodial, and it gets expensive when you forget to
hang up the server...
Has anyone got NT Server 4.0 to connect to demon using PPP?  If so, please
let me known your system configuration!!!
