When I dail up our NT server(4.0) I can FTP and Telnet but
I can't see my network neighborhood or workgroups. What
setting do I have wrong? I could easily see the windows
network with OS win98.
 
Check with your network admin to make sure that you are getting a WINS
address. Also, your NT4 network might not be setup to support TCPIP
networking (NT4 primarily used either NetBEUI or IPX, not TCP/IP).
Windows XP does not support NetBEUI over a VPN or dial up link...
