I am running into a little problem while dialing up my "Internet Service provider"
Right after the message "registering your computer on the network" I get a beep followed by a disconnect with message "TCP/IP CP Reporting an error 1214, the format of the specified network name is invalid"
What am I missing? is my NT looking to log onto another NT?
Can anyone suggest anything?

I got a book on NT written by Mark Manasi by Sybex, it covers the dial up
and everything you want to know about NT. Called Windowns NT Workstation4
also has a Sever book.
