Permanently Disabling Promiscuous Mode under Windows NT

DO NOT follow the procedure on this page unless you are sure you want to permanently disable promiscuous mode.

Once promiscuous mode has been disabled using this method, it cannot be re-enabled.

To permanently disable promiscuous mode using Windows NT and the NDIS drivers MDGMPORT.SYS or MDGNDIS4.SYS:

  1. Open the OEMSETUP.INF file (in the appropriate driver directory).

  2. Uncomment (by removing the semi-colons at the beginning of the lines) the following lines:

    ; set NewValueList = >($(NewValueList),+

    ; {Kill_PM, $(NoTitle), $(!REG_VT_SZ), 1)})

  3. Continue with installation.
