MORE INFORMATION
================
To install Network Monitor, run the Setup program from one of the following
locations:
- From the Disk1 folder where Netmon.zip was expanded.
- From disk 1 of the three Network Monitor Setup disks.
- From the Disk1 folder in the locations mentioned above on the Back Office
CD-ROM.
After the Setup program finishes, you are prompted to install the supporting
Network Monitor drivers. To do this:
1. Click Start, point to Settings, click Control Panel, and then double-click
Network. (This step is necessary only if the Network Properties dialog box is
not displayed at the end of Network Monitor Setup).
2. Click Add, double-click Protocol, and then click Have Disk.
3. Click Browse.
4. Browse to the following folder (depending on your operating system version):
- Windows 98 CD-ROM: CD-ROM drive:\Tools\ResKit\NetAdmin\NetMon
- Windows 95 CD-ROM: CD-ROM drive:\Admin\NetTools\NetMon
5. Click OK, and then restart the computer when you are prompted.
To ensure proper parsing of Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol (PPTP) packets:
1. Using a standard text editor (such as Notepad), edit the Tcpip.ini file
located in the Parsers folder in which Network Monitor is installed. The
default location is C:\Nm\Parsers.
2. Locate the [TCP_HandoffSet] section.
3. Locate the line containing the text "5678 = PPTP" (without the quotation
marks). Change this to "1723 = PPTP" (without the quotation marks).
4. Save the file, and then quit Notepad.
