[FW1] "How To" for AOL 6.0 & SecuRemote

[Misha <msallen3@FW1-NOSPAMyahoo.com>]

Excellent point !!!

The "Launch AOL" step that Steve describes below is an absolute necessity
prior to making the registry hacks I described earlier

Misha,

I started from scratch to see if everything would work.  I noticed that
if I didn't launch AOL to let it do it's wacky rebind, reconfigure thing
prior to making the registry changes, it doesn't work.  So basically, I
had to:

1.  Install SR.  Reboot.
2.  Launch AOL to allow it to 'repair itself', rebind or whatever it
does.  Close AOL.
3.  Make your registry changes.  Reboot.

And it works.

If I swap steps 2 and 3, it doesn't work.  As a matter of fact, it seems
to break AOL.  I can't even browse the web.

Steve

FYI


I have consistently gotten SecuRemote Build 4176 to work for
AOL 6.0 users on Windows 98 & Me machines by doing the following
(I will report on Win 2K & Win XP in the near future):


1. Install SecuRemote on all Network Adapters


---reboot---


2. User regedit.exe to insert the below two new string values within
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\Class\netTrans\000n
where "n" is the TCP?IP binding associated with "AOL Adapter":

     Value Name:    MaxMTU 
     Data Type:     String 
     DATA           576 

     Value Name:    MaxMSS 
     Data Type:     String 
     DATA           536


---reboot---


3. Set "IP Packet Size" to "Small" for "Dial-Up Adapter" & "Dial-Up
Adapter #2"
(via Control Panel -> Network -> Dial-Up Adapter -> Properties ->
Advanced)


---reboot---


4. AOL 6.0 now works in conjunction with SecuRemote
