If you choose not to use VPN from off-campus and still want to send email through your own broadband provider, you will need to configure your mail client settings as described in the document Configuring Eudora Email When Off-campus. Suggested settings for Verizon and Comcast Cable broadband customers are included in that document.

VPN allows you to use the same email configuration away that you use on campus. See Install and Configure Eudora.

The only information that you require from your ISP is your static IP address if applicable. If your ISP allocates you an IP address via DHCP then this is configured automatically.

No. Our email system will work with any internet service provider. And better yet, if you move or change your ISP in the future, you can keep your MailMine email address.

It is beyond the scope of this FAQ to provide information on every possible client configuration. However, we do provide the following links where you can view or download information on configuring specific email clients. Click on the name of the email software you use in order to view or download an Adobe Acrobat (PDF) file with configuration instructions: If you are still having difficulty, please send an email to: support@emailcommand.com.

By connecting to the VPN service, you assure that the data you transmit will be secure between your host and the UF core network. Once it arrives on campus, it is decrypted and sent in the clear. Furthermore, it allows you to gain access to resources that are restricted based on source address. While you are connected to the VPN concentrator, you appear to other hosts at UF as if you were on the UF network.

The router's gateway must point to Multi-Path VPN's LAN address for Multi-Path VPN to work with internal routers. Tunnels will have to be configured for all nodes that have to be accessed from the outside. Static routes will have to be configured on Multi-Path VPN for all nodes that must be accessed from the outside, pointing to the external interface of the router. (The alternative method of accessing internal servers is by using Reverse Port Mapping). See below.

There are two options to configure Stay Connected!, Configuration Wizard and Advanced Configurations, you do not need to run both, just the wizard or the Advanced. For beginners, you should use the Wizard as it sets all the basics for you without worrying every single setting: To Access Configuration Wizard, right click on Stay Connected! tray icon, left click to select Configuration Wizard. Select "I am using Other ISPs" on the ISP and click on Next.

Start Modem Booster program and click on the menu item "Tools" -> "Configuration Wizard". Enter the your service provider details in the appropriate fields and you all done!

Yes. However, we recommend you to try it from a non-wireless network when you initially set up the connection for the first time.

No. VPN provides security by encrypting and decrypting data that passes through a VPN connection; it does not offer protection from viruses or other malware.

No. Each ISP has it's own acceptable use policy which says what you can and can't do on their network, this policy can be changed at any time so it is not possible for us to keep track of every ISP. You should ask your ISP such questions before you signup but it is unlikely they would ban VPN access.

Start the Network Control Applet by clicking on Network from Control Panel (Start - Settings - Control Panel) or right click on Network Neighborhood and select Properties Select "Obtain an IP address from a DHCP Service". DHCP settings will only override IP address and subnet mask locally configured. If you have configured DNS, WINS etc locally then the DHCP configuration will not overwrite it.

Note: The following instructions have been verified using Eudora 5.1 under Windows. If anyone is using Eudora under Mac OS X please let us know if the configuration is the same as Windows. Eudora does not allow configuring the server port through the normal options dialogue. However a large number of options are exposed in an initialization file (eudora.ini) read at startup. The contents of the initialization file are documented by clicking on Help->Topics and searching on EUDORA.

Presumably, you will need to run DenyHosts as root (in order for DenyHosts to update /etc/hosts.deny and read entries from /var/log), so you first must become root. Once you have either logged in as root (or used su - root, for instance) you can then run the following command: The above command will launch the crontab editor. To launch DenyHosts every 20 minutes you would then add the following line to the crontab: You will need to substitute your site-specific paths above.

By default Sandboxie is configured to load and start automatically. To have Sandboxie load only when you need it, make the following changes. In Sandboxie Control, open the Configure -> Shell Integration window, and clear the checkbox When Windows starts to stop Sandboxie Control from starting. Open the Windows Services configuration window: Start menu -> Control Panel -> Administrative Tools -> Services. Then locate the Sandboxie Service.

No. The software you have installed from BigPond will only work for BigPond Dial-Up Residential services. Please contact your ISP to find out if they are participating in the IAP.
