In article <1suegPAz7Ev4EwF1@thehulls.demon.co.uk>, Robert Hull <Robert@thehulls.demon.co.uk> writes >No, but your contribution allowed the interpretation that you expected >Demon to support W2000, rather than just to support IP connections that >have the misfortune to be made via W2000. I might be wrong here but the dial up accounts are a domestic and small business product where Windows 3.1, 95 and 98 are common. Demon has supported these OS. If you were a business user requiring a different product in which you would probably find a Network running on NT4 or W2000 then you should expect some support there. If Demon is not willing to support it then find an ISP which is prepared to do so. I realise the situation is getting blurred. Small businesses now have networks and even home users are using NT4 and W2000 so perhaps it is about time that Demon (which still charges for its dial up accounts and charges for telephone calls) should progress to wider support. It would suit me as I run W2000 server and have had no problems with using Windows dial up and Turnpike. If I can help anyone please do ask. CHRIS -- Chris Wilkinson
