I know that feeling. :D Well done!
Hi Damq, I've moved this thread to the server system forum as this is more likely to be a server problem that an XP problem, and less likely to...
If you only have two computers, a cross-over cable between the two is fine. Do you have any other connections from the server (for example,...
I use Buffalo Linkstations for file storage in a couple of our branch offices. My experience is that they are OK, but not as reliable as a...
If the XBox works and the computer does not, there is something wrong with the computer (or perhaps the cable it is attached to) rather than the...
Yes. That should be fine. This is something I am sure you can do, but is not something I have ever set up. The key thing is to ensure that DHCP...
It could be an add-in causing a problem. In Office 2000 (we run on steam :)) you can go to "Add-ins" on the Tools menu, and then deselect any...
Because they are not that expensive, and if one fails, I can easily drop another one into it's place. Nothing wrong with creating your own...
If you have a gigabit point to point and are confident of that link's up time, you can get away without the server at the remote site. Are the...
However, the key point as Bill has correctly stated a number of times, is that your ports are all closed. That is, that you have no open...
I'm confident that is not right. If there is no application found listening on the port the response will be: Closed port a TCP packet with a TCP...
OK. I think that we can both agree that there is a scaling issue and that as the network grows you come to a point where the best policy is to use...
Bill, you are the only one who has said that what we were presenting was a requirement. Both Scott and I have been pretty consistent in saying...
Of course it is. They couldn't assume that ever server was going to be installed into a domain environment. As you can't install a domain reliant...
I grant that there is some confusion about terminology (something not helped by past Microsoft use of the term domain). So I'll set out my...
You can use this tool to play with IP addresses to see if they will work together: http://www.nicholshayes.co.uk/GatewayNode2Node.html
Those are my favourite types of analogies :D The main security benefit is that access rights and user management are controlled in one place -...
I think you may have the use of the term server confused here. All NT based Windows systems provide a "Server" service and a "Workstation"...
I have moved the discussion on the pros and cons of using a domain or peer to peer, to a new thread: "Domain or Peer to Peer ". I think the new...
I absolutely agree with this. You do not need a domain. Peer to peer network can work in large networks. After all, individual users connecting to...
Separate names with a comma.
