SYMPTOMS
========

When you use a demand-dial interface in Routing and Remote Access Service (RRAS)
for Microsoft Windows NT version 4.0, it fails to use the dialing properties
that are normally used in Dial-Up Networking. For example, you may have your
dialing properties set to always dial a 9 to access an outside line, or *70 to
turn off call waiting. When you dial a demand-dial interface, those properties
are not used.

CAUSE
=====

Demand-dial interfaces in Routing and Remote Access do not use telephony dialing
properties. Normal Dial-Up Networking connections do use telephony dialing
properties. You can configure your telephony dialing properties by
double-clicking Modems in Control Panel.

RESOLUTION
==========

Manually enter any dialing strings you normally use directly into the phone
number field for your demand-dial interfaces. For example, if you have your
dialing properties set to always dial a 9 to access an outside line, you need to
add a 9 to the beginning of your phone number; for example 9xxx- xxxx.

STATUS
======

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Routing and Remote Access
Service for Windows NT version 4.0. We are researching this problem and will
post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes
available.
