Here are the Setup Examples if you
are more the learning-by-doing type of user ;-)
Hint:
If your screen resolution is such (e.g. 640x480) that you can't access all the
fields of the Setup window, use the Windows system menu to move around the Setup screen:
ALT+Spacebar,
followed by the M-key (for Move) gets
you into Windows moving mode: now you can use your cursor keys to position the Setup
window. As a last resort you can try to edit the file
DynamiP.INI with Notepad (that's ugly, I know...).
After installing DynamIP you might want to run through Quick Setup to make sure all the settings are OK
for your environment. Very detailed information about each Setup Tab and the respective
options is available on the appropriate Setup page:
Advanced users will find additional useful setup information on the following pages:
In some cases (e.g. to define non-standard ports or to
define dial-up passwords) you might have to edit the file DynamIP.INI directly. Here are a
few hints for those who really want to try this:
 | While DynamIP writes the settings in a specific order to the
INI file, the order of the various entries is irrelevant. If (by mistake) you enter the
same setting more than once, DynamIP will only read the first
occurrence. |
| Each line with a valid entry must be terminated with a semicolon ";" (without the quotes). |
| Passwords are encrypted before they are written to the INI file. The encryption
algorithm is simple and will not deter somebody who is determined to find out what your
passwords are. On the other hand, at least they are not stored in clear text... |
| If you need to enter a password directly into the INI file, you can precede the (clear
text) password with the string "[CLEARTEXT]"
(without the quotes). DynamIP will read such passwords as clear
text and properly encrypt them the next time the INI file is written. Some additional
information regarding passwords for dial-up networking is available here. |
