Maybe you can help me with this:
I'm using WinNT 4.0 WS at home (not connected to a network) and am 
unable through Administrative Tools, to run Remote Access Admin.  I have
Administrator permissions.
Whenever I click on Remote Access Admin, the dialer appears and asks if 
I wish to dial a remote network.  If I respond yes, it will then attempt
to dial my ISP.  If my response is no, the dialog will close.  In either
event, I'm unable to get to the Remote Access Admin options.
Someone from an MS NT newsgroup suggested I should install the MS 
Loopback adapter from Control Panel Networks.  He stated that this might
"fool" the system into thinking I was connected to a network.  I did 
attempt to install the adapter, but while doing so, another problem 
emerged.
The adapter installation asked me for an IP address.  No address, no 
installation.  I tried entering the IP address of my ISP, and the 
corresponding Netmask.  The installation program took it and installed 
the adapter.  However....
The next time I dialed my ISP, it very nicely put me into a loop and I 
never could get on the WEB. (although I was connected to my ISP)  Still 
couldn't access the RAS admin options.
I guess my question is - Can I get at the RAS admin options without 
being on a valid network?  And, is that normal?  Can I make up an IP and
Netmask address for myself to use?
Any suggestions appreciated.  Thanks.
