System Requirements

1. In order to use a PPP connection at Yale, you must have a Yale NetID and password that are registered for a PPP account. This service is not free. For information on pricing and how to sign up for a PPP account, please contact User Accounts in the Yale Computer Center at 175 Whitney Avenue (432-6627).

2. The Dial-Up Network Access Software is distributed on CD, and can be obtained at the User Accounts office. If you do not have a CD-ROM drive, you should get last year's installer, available on floppy disk, from the User Accounts office. You can then download the newer versions of the network software from our software site: http://www.yale.edu/acs/software.

3. Some of the network will require additional customization before use. Instructions for customizing Eudora are included, and are also available online at http://www.yale.edu/iic/use.html.

4. Yale's modems currently support the Kflex 56K protocol. If you have an X2 56K modem, you will not be able to get a connection faster than 33600 bps. Yale will be upgrading to the v.90 protocol later this fall.

Installing PPP for Windows 95/98

Before You Start the Installation

• Be sure to have the Dial-Up Network Access installation CD (available at the Computer Center -- 175 Whitney Ave) as well as your Windows 95 or 98 installation disks (or CD) handy.

• Double-click on My Computer. You should see a window that resembles the following: 
  
  Now double-click on the Control Panel icon. You should see the Control Panel window.
• Double-click on the Network icon, then click once on the Configuration tab near the top of the Network window. This should bring up the configuration portion of the Network window, which you use to add and remove network components of your operating system.

 

• If you have some networking components already installed, they may appear in the above window. If you see Dial-Up Adapter and TCP/IP or TCP/IP - Dial-Up Adapter on the list of installed components (you may have to scroll down to see the entire list) then the Dial-Up Adapter is already installed, and you can skip to Configuring TCP/IP .
• Click once on Add. The Select Network Component Type window should appear. In this window, click once on Adapter then once on Add. This should bring up the Select Network Adapters window:

• Follow the prompts and insert your Windows 95 or 98 installation disks/CD if necessary. When the Dial-Up Adapter has finished installing, you should be returned to the Network window, which should look something like this (again, you may need to scroll down to see everything if you have other network components installed):

 

Note: if you have an ethernet card on your machine, you may see two versions of TCP/IP -- one for the Dial-Up Adapter (TCP/IP - Dial-Up Adapter), and one for the Ethernet card (TCP/IP - 3COM Etherlink III or something similar). The following configuration information applies only to the version of TCP/IP linked to the Dial-Up Adapter (TCP/IP - Dial-Up Adapter).

• If you don't see TCP/IP you will need to install the TCP/IP protocol (if you do see TCP/IP, it is already installed and you can skip to Configuring the Dial-Up Adapter). To install the TCP/IP protocol, click Add from the Network screen, click once on Protocol then once on Add. This should call up the Select Network Protocol screen.

 

Click on Microsoft then on TCP/IP then on OK. This should install the TCP/IP protocol and return you to the Network screen.
 

• Now that the Dial-Up Adapter is installed, you need to configure TCP/IP. From the Network window (the Network Control Panel, opened by double-clicking on the Network icon in your Control Panels window), select TCP/IP or TCP/IP - Dial-Up Adapter (do not choose Dial-Up Adapter) by scrolling through the window of installed network components (if necessary) and clicking once on TCP/IP or TCP/IP - Dial-Up Adapter. Click once on Properties to bring up the TCP/IP Properties window:

• You will need to enter information in the IP Address, WINS Configuration, Gateway, and DNS Configuration portions of the TCP/IP Properties window. To call up each portion, click on the appropriate tab. Enter the information as follows:
• IP Address: Obtain an IP address automatically.
• WINS Configuration: Disable WINS Resolution
• Gateway:
• Enter "130.132.57.1" in New Gateway box
• Click Add.
• DNS Configuration:
• Click on Enable DNS
• Enter a one-word name for your computer (it doesn't matter what) in the Host box, and enter "cis.yale.edu" in the Domain box.
• Enter "130.132.1.9" in the DNS Server Search Order box, then click Add.
• Add "130.132.1.10" and "130.132.1.11" similarly.

• Your TCP/IP protocol should now be configured properly. Click on the OK at the bottom right of the TCP/IP Properties window, then click on the OK at the bottom right of the Network window. At this point you should be asked if you want to restart your system in order for the changes to take effect. Restart your computer by clicking on Restart.

• Double-click on My Computer. If you see a Dial-up Networking icon here, then it is already installed, and you can go directly to the next step. If not, double-click on Control Panel and continue.
• Double-click on Add/Remove Programs, then click once on the Windows Setup tab near the top of the Add/Remove Programs window. This should bring up the Windows Setup screen, which you use to install the optional components of Windows 95/98:

 

• Click once on the Communications option that should appear in the middle of the Windows Setup window, then click on the Details box. This should bring up a window that shows which communication options, if any, you have installed:

 

• The option necessary for PPP is Dial-Up Networking, so select this option by clicking once in the check-box just to the left of the Dial-Up Networking option, and then click OK.

• Follow the prompts and insert your Windows 95/98 installation disks/CD if necessary.
• When Dial-Up Networking has finished installing, you should be returned to the Add/Remove Programs Properties window. Click OK. You are now ready to go on to the next step.

• Double click on Dial-Up Networking (in My Computer). If this is the first time you have opened Dial-Up Networking the Make a New Connection screen should appear automatically. If it does not appear, double-click on the Make a New Connection icon in the Dial-Up Networking window.
• If you haven't yet installed your modem, you should also see the Install New Modem screen. If so, follow the on-screen instructions, and keep entering the requested information and clicking Next until you get back to the Make a New Connection window:

 

• Enter a name for the connection icon (e.g. Yale PPP). If your modem has been set up properly, it should already be selected in the Select a modem window, and you should not have to click on Configure. Click on Next, and the phone number screen should appear. Enter the number appropriate for your service:
• for students, 764-9664
• for members of the faculty and staff, 764-9632
• for members of the faculty and staff at the Medical School, 764-5740

• You should now see the new improved Dial-Up Networking window, which should now include an icon for Yale PPP (or whatever you called it). Click once on this icon, then select Properties from the File menu. You should see a window entitled Yale PPP or whatever it was you called your connection:

 
 

Click once on Server Type.
 
 

 
 

• Make sure PPP: Windows 95, Windows NT 3.5, Internet is selected as the Type of Dial-Up Server, and that Log on to network, Enable software compression, and TCP/IP are all checked. You shouldn't have to change the TCP/IP settings.
• Click OK to return to the Yale PPP screen, and again on OK to close the Yale PPP window. Your PPP connection should now be configured properly.

• Insert the Dial-Up Network Access CD into your CD-ROM drive. Double-click on My Computer, then on the icon for your CD-ROM. You should see a screen, which shows the contents of the CD. Double click on the file named "9598.exe". You should see the Welcome screen.
• In the Welcome screen, click on Install and follow the on-screen instructions. We recommend that you install all components of the network software package. When the installer has finished installing the software on your system, it will ask if you want to restart your machine. Do so.
• When your machine has finished rebooting, you should see a number of new windows (Email and Personal Accounts, Internet Tools, and Information Services). The same programs should now be available through your Start Menu.

• You should generally use Dial-Up Networking to establish the PPP connection before you run any network software. Some network software may be able to automatically run Dial-Up Networking, however.
• Double-click on Dial-Up Networking, then on Yale PPP. Enter your username and password (if they're not there already) and click on Connect.
• Once the connection has been established, you can run your network applications. The easiest way to start them is to click on the Start Menu (on your Task Bar), then on Programs. You should see several new items under Programs that were installed by the Dial-Up Network Access installer, including Email and Personal Accounts (which contains icons for telnetting to the Pantheon and for using Eudora), Internet Tools (which contains icons for Netscape, FTP, and several other programs), and Information Services (which contains icons for Orbis, Nexis/Lexis, and other online databases). Click on the icon of the service you wish to use.
• When you are finished using your network software, be sure to disconnect: in the "Connected to Yale PPP" window, click on "disconnect." On some systems, you may need to double-click the Dial-Up Networking icon on the far right of the Task Bar to bring up the "Connected to PPP" window.

System Requirements

• A Macintosh with a 68020 or higher processor (or PowerPC). This means you can't run it on a Mac Plus, SE, Classic, PowerBook 100, or LC.
• At least 8 megabytes of RAM (though 12 Megs is recommended in general and required to run Netscape).
• System 7.1.0 or higher.
• A CD-ROM or floppy disk drive.
• 50 megabytes of free space on your hard drive for a full installation (less required for a partial installation).
• A 14400 bps or faster modem. 33600 or 57600 (Kflex) bps preferred.
• If you are using ARA, you will need the Apple Remote Access Client software, which can be purchased at the Microcomputer Sales Center or from other vendors for approximately $50 (note: some Macintosh computers, primarily PowerBooks and Performas, as well as Mac OS version 8 software, come bundled with ARA).

In order to use a PPP or an ARA connection at Yale, you must have a Yale NetID and password that are registered either for a PPP or an ARA account.  This service is not free. For information on pricing and how to sign up for PPP or ARA, please contact User Accounts in the Information Technology Services building at 175 Whitney Avenue (432-6627). The Dial-Up Network Access Software is available on CD or on floppy disks, and can be obtained at the User Accounts office. Some of the network applications will require additional customization before use. Instructions for customizing Eudora Pro are available at http://www.yale.edu/iic/use.html. Yale's modems currently support the Kflex 56K protocol. If you have an X2 56K modem, you will not be able to get a connection faster than 33600 bps. Yale will be upgrading to the v.90 protocol in late fall 1998.

To install the PPP/ARA network software, you will have to follow the following steps:

• Step 0: Install Apple Remote Access Client (if applicable)
• Step 1: Install the network software
• Step 2: Configure PPP (if applicable)
• Step 3: Configure the network software
• Step 4: Open a PPP or ARA connection
• Step 5: Use your network software
• Step 6: Close your PPP or ARA connection

Step 0: Install ARA Client (if applicable)

If you will be using ARA, then you should first install the ARA Client software. Do so now, following the instructions that come with ARA. You will need the following Yale-specific information:

The ARA phone number, which is 432-5807 (note that this is NOT the PPP phone number).

• Take the time to read through the ARA Client manual so that you're familiar with how ARA works, then continue with step 1.

• Quit any running applications.  Insert the Dial-Up Networking Software CD or the first floppy disk. When the disk icon appears, double-click it, then double-click the "Yale PPP/ARA Installer" icon.
• On the "splash screen", click the Continue button. We recommend that you do an "Easy Install", though if you only want to install (or re-install) a particular option you can select "Custom Install".  Select the location in which you want to install the network software (normally this will just be your hard drive) and click "Install".  You will see a screen that asks permission to quit all other running applications; click "Continue".
• You will then see a screen which asks whether you are installing Yale's PPP or ARA, or PPP from some other Internet Service Provider (ISP).  Select the appropriate option. (Note:  if you select "3rd Party ISP", the installer will install all the network applications, but will not configure TCP/IP or install any PPP software.)
• Software will begin installing and you should see a window indicating the progress of the installation.  If you are installing from disks, you should be ready to insert disks as needed.
• When the installation has finished, you should see a screen asking you to restart your machine.  Do so by clicking "Restart".
• You should now see a folder on your desktop called "Dialup Applications".  This folder contains aliases to your new network software. The originals as well as other useful software are located in a folder on your hard drive called "Yale Dialup Software".
• You will also see a folder called "Moved items", which contains any pre-existing network software that the installer needed to move in order to complete its installation.  It's a good idea to leave it until you've used your new network software enough to make sure that it's working properly, and that you haven't lost any saved information (i.e. bookmarks, old email, etc.).  Once you're satisfied that everything is working properly, you can delete the "Moved items" folder.
• If you're using PPP, continue with Step 2.
• If you're using ARA, skip to Step 3.

• If you're using PPP, you'll need to do a little more configuring before it will connect properly. Double-click on the "Dialup Applications" folder on your desktop, then double-click on the "FreePPP Setup alias" icon. Next to "Connect to:" select the appropriate connection (use the on-campus version if you will be dialing in from on-campus). For the "From:" line you should normally leave it on "local" unless a call to Yale is a long-distance call (for example, when you're travelling).
• If you are using an internal modem or only have a single modem/printer port, you will need to change the port the computer will check for your modem. You should select the "Modems" tab on the window. It will list the currently available modems, "Generic Modem I", "Generic Modem II", and "Generic Modem III." Double-click on the modem selection you will use, typically "Generic Modem I." This will bring up the "FreePPP Modem Configuration" window. Next to "Connected to:" select the appropriate method of connecting to your modem.
• If you want FreePPP to automatically save your NetID and password when dialing, select the "Accounts" tab on the FreePPP Setup window. Double-click the connection type you will be using, such as "Student PPP". This will open a window allowing you to enter the username and password which will be used automatically when FreePPP is dialing.
• NOTE: If you choose to have your username and password sent automatically, every time you change your password (via http://www.yale.edu/password/) you will need to remember to open up this window and type in your new password.
• Close the "FreePPP Setup" window and go to step 3.

Before you can use Eudora (for email), you will need to do some configuration.  Please consult the Eudora Pro configuration instructions before running Eudora.

Step 4: Open a PPP or ARA connection

For PPP customers:

• To initiate a PPP connection, select "Open PPP Connection" under the Phone menu at the top right of your screen.  Note that you can usually skip this step by running your network applications and letting them initiate the connection automatically.

• Follow the instructions in your ARA manual to initiate an ARA connection.  For users of ARA 3.0 and higher, this means opening the "Remote Access" control panel and clicking on "Connect".

Once your PPP or ARA connection has been established, you can run any of the software contained in the "Dialup Applications" folder on your Desktop.  Click on "Other Network Software" to find "Email/Personal Accounts", "Internet Tools", "Information Services" and other useful software.

Step 6: Close your PPP/ARA connection

Although Yale doesn't bill by the hour for your connection time, you will want to still close your PPP/ARA connection when you're not using it so that 1) your friends can call you by phone and 2) so that you can free up our resources so that other people can enjoy the internet as well.

To close your PPP or ARA connection, first make sure you've quit from any Internet programs that are running. Then, select "Close PPP Connection" from the Phone menu at the top right of your screen (for PPP), or select "Disconnect Remote Access" from your Apple Menu (for ARA).

Getting Help (or, what to do if it doesn't work)

If you have problems or questions, and you have access to a working internet connection, check our the troubleshooting section of our home page:  http://www.yale.edu/iic/.  If you don't find the answer to your question there, please contact the Internet Information Center at iic@yale.edu or at 432-5116. You are also welcome to stop by between 8:30 am and 5:00 pm, Monday through Friday -- we're located in the Information Technology Services building at 175 Whitney Avenue.
 

Step 0 -- Before you begin

You will need to know the following information when you configure Eudora:

• Real Name or Your Name. As the name implies, this is your real name, as you want it to appear on outgoing mail.
• Email Address or Return Address. This should normally be of the form firstname.lastname@yale.edu, where you replace "firstname" and "lastname" with your first and last names. You can check to see if this will work by connecting to http://www.yale.edu/cgi-bin/ph and looking up your directory record. If you see an "email_to:" line in your record, then you can use your firstname.lastname@yale.edu address. If you do not see this line in your record, and you are a current student, faculty member or staff member at Yale, you can send an email message to email@yale.edu requesting that your firstname.lastname alias be set up.
• Login Name. This should be your NetID. For example, if your NetID were "xyz12", you would enter "xyz12".

• Incoming Server or Mail Server (Incoming) or Mail Host. This should be "netid.mail.yale.edu", where you replace "netid" with your NetID. For example, if your NetID were "xyz12", you would enter "xyz12.mail.yale.edu".

• We recommend that you connect using the POP protocol, rather than the IMAP protocol.
• Outgoing Server or SMTP Server. This should be "mail.yale.edu".

To start Eudora, find "Email and Personal Accounts" under "Programs" in your Start Menu. Click on "Eudora".

The first time you run Eudora, you should see the New Account Wizard, which walks you through some of the basic configurations for Eudora. Using the information provided in Step 0, follow the on-screen instructions. Once the wizard has finished, select "Options" from the "Tools" menu, click the "Incoming Mail" icon in the "Category" column at the left, then proceed with Step 2.

If you don't see the wizard, or if you want to change previously existing settings, select "Options" from the "Tools" menu, then click the "Getting Started" icon in the "Category" column at the left. Using the information provided in Step 0, enter the appropriate settings. Then click on the "Checking Mail" icon, enter the settings for "Mail Server" and "Login Name", and proceed to Step 2. 

Step 2 -- Further Configurations

There are several more things you will need to configure before Eudora is ready to use. How you configure Eudora depends primarily on from where and from how many machines you check your mail. We have a set of standard configurations; if you don't fit any of the descriptions below, email us at iic@yale.edu and we'll help you figure out what your settings should be.

• Configuration I: using Eudora from ONE machine
• Server configuration: POP
• Leave mail on server -- unchecked
• Delete from server after -- unchecked
• Delete from server when emptied from Trash -- checked
• Authentication style -- Kerberos
• Configuration II: using Eudora from TWO or more machines

• Eudora configuration on the "Master" machine
• Server configuration: POP
• Leave mail on server -- checked
• Delete mail from server after 7 days -- checked
• Delete from server when emptied from Trash -- checked
• Authentication style -- Kerberos
• Eudora configuration on the "Slave" machine
• Server configuration: POP
• Leave mail on server -- checked
• Delete mail from server after -- unchecked
• Delete from server when emptied from Trash -- unchecked
• Authentication style -- Kerberos
• Configuration III -- using Eudora on ONE machine, using Pine (or another non-POP email program) from a different machine
• Set Eudora to use the same settings as the Master machine in Configuration II above.

Step 3 -- Using Eudora Pro

If you have questions about using Eudora Pro, try selecting "Topics" from the Help menu. Click on the "Contents" tab, then double-click on "How To". You should then see a list of basic topics; just about everything you need to know is available here. If you don't find what you're looking for, try clicking on "Index" for an alphabetical list of topics, or on "Find" to search for your topic.

Special note for "Slave" machines:

Step 0 -- Before you begin

You will need to know the following information when you configure Eudora:

• Real Name or Your Name. As the name implies, this is your real name, as you want it to appear on outgoing mail.
• Email Address or Return Address. This should normally be of the form firstname.lastname@yale.edu, where you replace "firstname" and "lastname" with your first and last names. You can check to see if this will work by connecting to http://www.yale.edu/cgi-bin/ph and looking up your directory record. If you see an "email_to:" line in your record, then you can use your firstname.lastname@yale.edu address. If you do not see this line in your record, and you are a current student, faculty member or staff member at Yale, you can send an email message to email@yale.edu requesting that your firstname.lastname alias be set up.
• Login Name. This should be your NetID. For example, if your NetID were "xyz12", you would enter "xyz12".

• Incoming Server or Mail Server (Incoming) or Mail Host. This should be "netid.mail.yale.edu", where you replace "netid" with your NetID. For example, if your NetID were "xyz12", you would enter "xyz12.mail.yale.edu".

• We recommend that you connect using the POP protocol, rather than the IMAP protocol.
• Outgoing Server or SMTP Server. This should be "mail.yale.edu".

To start Eudora, double-click on the "Eudora Pro" Icon. If you installed Eudora from the Dial-Up Networking CD, you can find this icon by double-clicking on the "Dialup Applications" folder on your desktop. Otherwise, find the "Email and Personal Accounts" folder on your hard drive, and double-click on "Eudora Pro".

The first time you run Eudora, you should automatically see the Settings window. If you don't see this window, or if you want to change pre-existing settings, select "Settings" from the "Special" menu, then click on "Getting Started".

Getting Started (click on the "Getting Started" icon)

• Using the information provided in Step 0, enter the appropriate configurations for Real name, User name, Mail Host, and Return address. Be sure that Offline is NOT checked.

• Leave Mail as it appears.
• Using the information provided in Step 0, enter the appropriate configuration for SMTP.
• For Directory Services enter "directory.yale.edu".
• For Finger enter "pantheon.yale.edu".

There are several more things you will need to configure before Eudora is ready to use. How you configure Eudora depends primarily on from where and from how many machines you check your mail. We have a set of standard configurations; if you don't fit any of the descriptions below, email us at iic@yale.edu and we'll help you figure out what your settings should be.

• Configuration I: using Eudora from ONE machine
• Leave on server for -- unchecked
• Delete from server when emptied from Trash -- checked
• Authentication -- Kerberos
• all other settings: leave as they are
• Configuration II: using Eudora from TWO or more machines

• Eudora configuration on the "Master" machine
• Leave on server for 7 days -- checked
• Delete from server when emptied from Trash -- checked
• Authentication -- Kerberos
• all other settings: leave as they are
• Eudora configuration on the "Slave" machine
• Leave on server -- checked, nothing in the "days" box
• Delete from server when emptied from Trash -- unchecked
• Authentication -- Kerberos
• Configuration III -- using Eudora on ONE machine, using Pine (or another non-POP email program) from a different machine
• Set Eudora to use the same settings as the Master machine in Configuration II above.

• For the "Domain to add to unqualified addresses":
• all accounts: enter "yale.edu"
• Immediate send -- checked for Ethernetted machines, unchecked for PPP/Dial-up machines
• Send on check -- checked
• all other options leave as they are

• Empty Trash on Quit -- checked
• all others -- leave as they are

• Kerberos POP3 port: 1110
• Realm: NET.YALE.EDU
• Service name: kpop
• Service format: ^0.pantheon-po@^2
• Click on "OK" to close the Settings window. Eudora should now be configured correctly. Note that the settings above are recommended settings and unless you really know what you're doing you shouldn't change them.
