Using the Dial-Up Script
(click on pictures for larger image)

The dial-up script is what assists your computer in completing the connection when dialing up to the NDSU Extension modem pool. This script is only needed when dialing the 800 number or the local extension number. When dialing the NDSU ITS local number (8660) it is not needed. Also, if you are using Windows 2000, you will need a special script modified specifically for your use and will need to contact the ACCS helpdesk for more information.

To install, first right click on "My Network Places", and click on "Properties". This should bring up the Network Connections window like the one to the right.
Next, right click on the dial-up account you wish to use. In the menu, select "Properties". You should now see a properties screen like the one to the right.
To set up your script, now click on the "Security" tab. You will then see a window similar to the one at the right. Near the bottom, check the box next to "Run Script", and then click on the "Browse" button to find where you saved the script file to. (The script file is named ndsuext.scp). Select this script file and then click OK. You can now exit all other windows, your script has been installed.

NDSU is an equal opportunity institution.
