Virtual Private Network Does Not Work After Batch Install (186903)


The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft Windows 98
This article was previously published under Q186903

SYMPTOMS

After you install Windows 98 using an Msbatch.inf file that was created with the Microsoft Batch 98 tool, virtual private network (VPN) may not be installed even though it was selected for installation.

CAUSE

This behavior can occur if the NDISWAN network protocol is not installed during the batch installation.

RESOLUTION

To prevent this problem from occurring, either create a new Microsoft Batch 98 information (Msbatch.inf) file, or modify your existing information file with the Microsoft Batch 98 tool. Follow these steps in Microsoft Batch 98 to add the NDISWAN protocol:
  1. Click Network Options, and then click Additional Clients.
  2. In the Protocols box, type NDISWAN.
  3. Click OK.
  4. Save the Msbatch.inf file and then quit Microsoft Batch 98.
