LOCATIONS AND ACCOUNTS
Note: Do not use the NotesR Direct Dialup connection type. If you are using a Home (Notes Direct Dialup) location for RAS, edit it and change its connection type to Network Dialup. The X.PC modem protocol is not supported.
Before you proceed, ask your Domino administrator whether your organization has a network server. With RAS, you may have access to a network server either through an ISP, through your organization's intranet, or both. A "Network Dialup" location type lets you call a single network server to give you access to all Notes applications in your organization.
Note: Notes can use RAS software to call a network server and connect from there to Domino servers in your organization, to Web servers on the Internet, or to both. You may have access to a network server either through an ISP, through your organization's intranet, or both.
Notes saves information about network servers in Home Location documents of the Network Dialup type and in Network Dialup Server Connection documents.
Tip: A network server connection may also allow you to browse the Internet. For more information, see Setting up your Web connection.

Notes also creates a Network Dialup Connection document to your Domino server.
