Incoming connection clients

The Windows Server 2003 family supports incoming connections from clients running Windows XP, Windows 2000, and the following operating systems:

  • Windows NT version 4.0 clients

    Windows NT version 4.0 clients can take full advantage of all incoming connection features except dynamic allocation of multilinked lines, Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP), IPSec client to server data security, and L2TP for tunneling across intervening networks.

  • Windows NT version 3.1, 3.5, and 3.51 clients

    Windows NT version 3.5x clients can take full advantage of incoming connection features, except for Multilink functionality. Windows NT 3.5x clients negotiate the logon process and authentication with the incoming connection. You can also configure these clients to use scripts that completely automate the logon process.

    Windows NT version 3.1 clients do not support the implementation of Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) that was introduced in Windows NT 3.5. Only Windows NT 3.5x or other PPP clients provide the support necessary to run TCP/IP or IPX applications on clients that directly communicate with servers on the LAN by using TCP/IP or IPX.

  • Windows 98 clients

    Windows 98 clients can take full advantage of incoming connection features, except dynamic allocation of multilinked lines and the Extensible Authentication Protocol. Windows 98 clients negotiate the logon process and authentication with the server. You can also configure these clients to use scripts that completely automate the logon process.

  • Windows 95 clients

    Windows 95 clients can take full advantage of incoming connection features, except the use of Multilink, dynamic allocation of multilinked lines, and Extensible Authentication Protocol. Windows 95 clients negotiate the logon process and authentication with the server. You can also configure these clients to use scripts that completely automate the logon process.

  • Macintosh clients

    Macintosh users can connect to a computer running Services for Macintosh and access Macintosh file volumes and AppleTalk printers by using the AppleTalk Control Protocol (ATCP).

  • PPP clients

    PPP clients that other companies offer and that use TCP/IP can access an incoming connection. The incoming connection automatically negotiates authentication with PPP clients; special configuration for these PPP clients is not required.

    For more information about your PPP client, see the software documentation for your PPP client.

For information about creating and configuring incoming connections, see Set up Incoming Connections.

Notes

  • The IPX/SPX protocol is not available on Windows XP 64-bit Edition (Itanium) and the 64-bit versions of the Windows Server 2003 family.

  • IPX cannot be configured for incoming or dial-up connections in the Windows Server 2003 family.
