Hello All,
I have a win 2K3 SBS server, with the web services running. I am using
Network Connections to define a PPPoE connection to my ISP.
Is it a way to make this connection a service that runs whether I am logged
on, or not?
I attempted to use srvany.exe, but I can't figure out what information to
put in the string editor field in the "application"
Thanks for any ideas

MMJ

You don't want to do this on the server
Get an inexpensive router (DLink, LinkSys, etc) between your nic and dsl
connection. It will handle all the PPPoE for you..
