Unchecking "Connect automatically when starting TCP/IP applications"
will force the user to initiate a PPP/ARAP connection by selecting
"Connect" in the Remote Access control panel. What will be lost is
the ability to connect by simply launching a web browser, email
client, etc. I have disabled this on all our laptops and no one has
complained or for that matter even noticed. This may require
educating your users to connect via the RA control panel but will
spare them the frustration of their laptops constantly dialing out.
This will have no effect on TCP/IP connectivity via ethernet.
