SUMMARY
The RAS_PORT_0 structure is used by the RasAdminPortEnum (MprAdminPortEnum)
and the RasAdminPortGetInfo (MprAdminPortGetInfo) APIs. This structure
returns valuable information to the Windows NT RAS server. The
wszComputerName field in this structure contains the name of the RAS client
computer that is dialing into the NT RAS server.
The wszComputerName field is filled only if the NT RAS server receives an
LCP Identification message that can only be sent by a Windows NT 4.0 RAS
client.
If the RAS client is a Windows 95 machine and you want to fill the
wszComputerName field, you have to use the NetBEUI Frame Protocol as the
network protocol for the RAS connection. This is by design.
