Additional Security

Windows 95 provides added security for tasks such as Dial-Up Networking. Windows 95 supports encrypted dial-in passwords and callback options, plus hardware devices from other vendors. For more information, see Chapter 14, "Security."

Tips for the administrator

As you plan your network:

• Define password requirements and access rights before installing Windows 95.
• Enable user-level security and set up a validated logon process if you are connecting computers running Windows 95 to a Windows NT or a NetWare network. Users can also synchronize the Windows password with the network password.
• Define the security needed for Dial-Up Networking.
