SYMPTOMS
========
In Windows 95, disabling "Log on to network" in Dial-Up Networking Advanced
Options may disable Microsoft Networking. This will occur if Windows 95 does not
have a network card or is using a hardware profile with no network card.
Sockets-based applications such as FTP, Telnet, and Ping will still function.
CAUSE
=====
The "Log on to Network" option may be confused with logging on to the domain,
when actually the "Log on to Network" option enables or disables NetBIOS, if no
network card is configured.
MORE INFORMATION
