to connect to the Internet, so a Dailup-connection needs to be configured:
After defining the name for the connection and the phone number, we need
to configure the connection:
tab: Basics
contains the connection information
tab: Server
define as network protocol ONLY TCP/IP, for
which you define
the values for your ISP (which is in most cases all
assigned by the server during
connection to the ISP)
tab: Script
If required, select your connection script (like me for connection to CIS)
We are now ready to connect to the Internet:
Once you are connected, using either from the Control-Panel or from the
Context-Menu of the icon in the task-bar the Dialup Networking
Monitor:
Select the tab: Summary

connection to display the Details: here it shows now the IP-address assigned
to you.
This is the number, you will tell
to everybody, who likes to connect
via the Internet to your system.

Internet to you by making the Ping-Test.
Once the connection to the Internet is tested, you can hangup
and install now the VPN-server on your system:
