Using Remote Access Service
Installing RAS
To set up your workstation to connect to the network from the office
1 Type rasload /u to unload the RAS drivers and to stop the Workstation
service. Use rasload /u /y to answer yes to all the questions normally asked when
stopping the Workstation service.
2 Type load protocol to load the protocol you need to use to connect to the
Windows NT or LAN Manager network.
If your workstation is in the office and is connected by cable to the network,
the LAN Manager commands described in this manual will work.
Conserving Memory on MS-DOS Workstations
This section describes two ways to conserve memory: unloading the RAS
drivers when you don’t need them, and loading the RAS drivers into upper
memory when they are in use.
Unloading the RAS Drivers
Type rasload /u to unload the RAS drivers and stop the Workstation
service. Use
rasload /u /y to answer yes to all the questions normally
asked when stopping the Workstation service.
Loading the RAS Drivers Into Upper Memory with LAN Manager
On MS-DOS client workstations, the RAS Setup program adds the
following lines to the [asybeui_xif] section of PROTOCOL.INI:
load="asybeui", "vcommiod[u]", "wantsr[u]"
unload="wantsr /u[c]", "vcommiod /u[c]", "asybeui[du]"
The [u] switch in the LOAD= line allows MS-DOS version 5 or 6 to load the
RAS drivers into upper memory. You can also use a third-party memory
manager to load the drivers into upper memory. For example, if you are
using Quarterdeck expanded memory manager QEMM386®, you would
insert the QEMM386 LOADHI command as follows:
load="loadhi lanman.dos\drivers\protocol\asybeui\asybeui[cbr]",
"loadhi vcommiod[c]", "loadhi wantsr[c]"
unload="wantsr /u[c]", "vcommiod /u[c]", "asybeui[du]"
