Greetings list folks--

I appear to have fallen into the not-necessarily-enviable position of
erstwhile network administrator for a WinNT 4.0 server/Win9x client
network. This is a small (10 client) network and I do not actually
work
at its location.  There is a modem in the server, so, once a phone
line
is connected, I'd prefer to log in via dial-up for any administrative
tasks that need to be performed.

My question is what is the procedure for creating/installing a RAS
client on my Windows 95 computer? or making it one?
(Relevant system info. below)
    OS - Win95 C
    Pentium 233 MMX
    64 MB RAM
    Cirrus ISA Hardware modem (set for PnP mode, however)
    Seagate 3.2 GB Hard Disk
    Creative Labs 52X ATAPI CD-ROM

Do installation disks need to be created on the NT 4.0 server?  All
the relevant help files suggest that Win95 can be a RAS client.

TIA,
