RAS server setup
Note: Windows XP Professional allows you to set up an incoming connection that can
accept up to three incoming calls. To do so, start the ‘New Connection Wizard’ and select
‘Set up an advanced connection > Accept incoming connections’. Since Windows XP
Professional does not allow to set up a RAS server for a large number of incoming
connections, the following description only refers to the Windows 2000 Server and
Windows Server 2003 operating system.
The Remote Access application enables you to configure and control the RAS server.
Your computer is automatically launched as server when Windows 2000 Server starts but
you still need to configure and enable remote access.
To configure remote access under Windows 2000 and Windows XP see
