If you are dialing into:

Windows NT/2000 computer, you must have a User Name & Password. Your User Name must be a user account with matching Password (set with Dial In Permission) on the Windows NT/2000 computer you are dialing into.

If the Windows NT/2000 computer you are calling is on a network and if user accounts on that Windows NT/2000 network are authenticated by a Windows NT/2000 Domain server, then your User Name must have a user account with matching Password (set with Dial In Permission) on that Windows NT/2000 Domain server.

Windows XP computer, you must have a User Name & Password. Unless the “Allow remote access to local user accounts without passwords” under the iClose-Up Options/View panel is checked, in which case you will not need a Password. Your User Name must be a user account (set with Dial in Permission) on the Windows XP computer you are dialing into. By default, Windows XP accounts do not have passwords and remote access with these accounts is disabled. You must therefore either install a Password for the accounts you wish to use remotely or check the above mentioned setting.

If the Windows XP computer you are calling is on a network and if user accounts on that Windows XP network are authenticated by a Windows NT/2000/XP Domain server, then your User Name must have a user account with matching Password (set with Dial in Permission) on that Windows NT/2000/XP Domain server.

Windows 95/98/Me computer, you must have a User Name. What name you put in does not matter any name works, (you can even make up a name). Whether you have a password or not is dependant on (a) and (b) below.

(a) If the Windows 95/98/Me computer has NO Dial-Up Networking Password then DO NOT put in a password in your phone book.

(To see if there is a Dial-Up Networking Password on the iClose-Up Server you are dialing, check the “Dial-Up Networking Security” panel by having someone at the other computer right click on the red iClose-Up triangles in the lower right of the screen and select "Security for This Computer". Remember, have someone do this on the iClose-Up Server you are dialing.)

(b) If the Windows 95/98/Me HAS a Dial-Up Networking Password then put that password in your phone book.

If the Windows 95/98/Me computer you are calling is on a network and if user accounts on that Windows 95/98/Me network are authenticated by a Windows NT/2000/XP Domain server, then your User Name must have a user account with matching Password (set with Dial In Permission) on that Windows NT/2000/XP Domain server. Also you must make sure that the user who logged into the Windows 95/98/Me computer you are dialing, has Read/Write or Full access privileges to any folders on the File Server you want to access.

ISP, put in a User Name & Password provided by your ISP.

Domain: Put in a Domain name if you are dialing into a Windows NT/2000/XP network and there will be more than one Windows NT/2000/XP Domain on the network. You would specify the Domain on which your User Name & Password would be authenticated. (Note: If you have a Domain you log into on your network and you dial into another Network that is authenticated by a Domain Server, you have two Domains and therefore have to specify the Domain on the other side you want to log into, in your phone book entry.)
