Auto Dialup ???

[Guest]

Have just upgraded to Office 2003 and am having problems getting O2003 initiating an auto DUN session.

If I configure to use a specific connection, it brings up the DUN dialup box seeking authorisation to dial.
If I configure to use IE's DUN settings it can't find the server and returns an error message.

No other programs have had problems auto initiating IE's dialer (OE6, Symantec etc). I'm running Office2003 Standard with latest updates. XP Pro (latest updates) on a Sony Vaio P4.

Outlook 2003 looks good but is utterly useless if I have to authorise every DUN session (every 10mins of the day).

Help Please.

Thanks

Prompt for dialing is an OS setting, not an Outlook setting. Have you
configured your DUN correctly?

No problems with DUN and any other programs (old OE6, various Symantec, CDDB lookups from various programs incl Media Player).

Outlook seems to be the only one that can't automatically initiate a DUN session (using either a sepecific DUN connection or IE settings)

Is this a reinstall issue ?

Thank

No. As I said, its an OS setting. Did you configure DUN not to prompt before
autodialing?
