I am trying to connect to my ISP (who is running BSD 2.1) with Windows NT 4.0. I have a dedicated IP address and was connecting fine for about a week. At that time I could not access the news server at my ISP (my IP didn't have rights to the news server) anyways after that was connected when I log in it goes through the password process, then it disconnects while or just after it tries to register my computer on the network. If my ISP makes my account a non-dedicated IP I connect fine from NT and with the dedicated IP I can connect from my windows95 computer without problem. Does anybody have any ideas on how what the problem might be and how to resolve it. Thanks Doug Manning doug@q-net.net P.S. According to my ISP my modem is requesting a disconnect from his server right after connection...
