| Allow Multiple Instances |
If this option is checked you can run multiple instances
of DynamIP at the same time. This may be useful - for example -
if you need to check more than 5 mail boxes or want to update more than 1 DIPS account. You can have each instance of DynamIP
read its settings from a different INI file (more information about how to do this is
available here). Note, however, that chat features
(IPchat, WEBchat) can be enabled for the first instance only. This
option is ignored if DynamIP is running as an NT Service (only
one instance is allowed to run as a service). |
| Startup Window State |
Normal
DynamIP starts with a normal size window. DynamIP
remembers the last position before it was shut down and will restore the main window in
the same place.Minimized/Tray
DynamIP starts either minimized (if AutoTray
is unchecked) or directly in the Tray (if AutoTray is checked). |
| AutoTray |
If AutoTray is checked DynamIP
will automatically start in the Tray (if Minimized/Tray
is selected) and put itself into the Tray whenever the ONline event occurs (only if IPchat
is off). Note that the AutoTray setting is ignored under Windows NT3.x because there is no
tray. |
| Play Sound Files |
DynamIP plays sound files when
notification events occur (sound files must be defined in the appropriate location, e.g.
IPchat). |
| Notification Window |
DynamIP brings up a notification
window when notification events occur. This is helpful if you don't have a sound card. |
| Background Color |
Color used to paint the background of the main DynamIP
window. Note that with the exception of the fore- and background color all the other color
settings of DynamIP are taken from the registry; you can change
them from the Control Panel [Icon Display]. |
| Foreground Color |
Color of fonts in the main DynamIP
window. Note that with the exception of the fore- and background color all the other color
settings of DynamIP are taken from the registry; you can change
them from the Control Panel [Icon Display]. |
| LOG DUN/RAS |
If checked DynamIP will write
all DUN/RAS activities (e.g. dialer) to the log file. |
| LOG Uploader |
If checked DynamIP will write
all Uploader activities to the log file. |
| LOG Mail |
If checked DynamIP will write
all Mail activities to the log file. |
| LOG Time |
If checked DynamIP will write
all Time activities to the log file. |
| LOG IP/WEBchat |
If checked DynamIP will write
all chat activities to the log file. |
| LOG HTTPscan |
If checked DynamIP will write
all server scan activities to the log file. |
| LOG raw UDP Packets |
If checked DynamIP will write
all UDP packets that arrive at the chat port to the log file. I use this mainly for
debugging purposes... |
| LOG DIPS |
If checked DynamIP will write
all activities of the DIPS Client to the log file. |
| LOG WEBcam |
If checked DynamIP will write
all activities related to the WEBcam to the log file. |
| Reset LOG file at Startup |
If checked DynamIP will delete
the log file each time you start DynamIP; this prevents your log
file from filling up your harddrive... |
| generate DUN/RAS protocol |
If checked DynamIP will generate
a DUN/RAS log and write it to the file DIPconn.LOG. This
might be useful if you want to keep track of your on-line time, phone charges, etc. |
| IE4 Internet Shortcuts |
If checked DynamIP will use the
extended format for Internet Shortcuts (adds extra information like Accessed and Modified
to Internet Shortcuts). Unless you have IE4 or IE5 installed this setting won't matter. |
