I'm attempting a normal "Create a New Connection". Then I follow the steps through the VPN setup. One thing is wierd, with other PCs I've done, I believe there was a step between the company name and the ip address fields. Something about connecting etc... Anyway, I do the whole thing...

Hi All, Wow, been a while since I needed to post something here. I'm having the most annoying problem with my new laptop. I have WinXP Pro installed on a Dell 600M(Centrino) and I'm trying to create a VPN with the built in NIC(not wireless). However, whenever I create it, it comes up as a...

Thank you again. Obviously a WAP or a wireless hub/switch behind my NAT would be the easiest, but the store around the corner bought up a dot.gone companie's assets and they are selling PCI wireless cards for $10 out the door(and Yes, they are b, not a or f standeard cards).Since I already...

OK, and thank you. So it is "POSSIBLE", which I actually assumed but one never knows with Microsoft. Now, the next question is are the PCs on the one LAN connection(CAT5) going to be able to file share and game with the laptop/PC on the other connection(Wireless)? I'm running Win2K server...

Hi Y'all, I'm thinking about adding wireless to my house. Currently I have a Dell Optiplex running NAT, DHCP, DNS etc..... basically my firewall through CAT5. Today I get a mailer from our local PC shop with a blowout price on wireless cards for PCs. I already have a wireless in my lappy and...

That is TOO perfect! It's like the old genie in a botlle. Q: What's your first wish? A: 10000000 more wishes, duh! As Always, D

Anyone? It's been 2 hours and it already moved to page 2. No one has any input on this? As Always, D

Hello All, OK, the title wasn't completely accurate, but what can you expect with 35 characters? I'm trying to get some basic tracking and calendar functions out of Outlook. I wanted to use Act or Goldmine in my network, but the users are all a little slow and both softwares would really go...

I'll let you all in on the biz info. Thule now has minimum pricing for all vendors. This was to help the small businesses compete with the larger businesses like REI. So, EVERYONE should have the same regular ADVERTISED price. However, the actual price you walk out with can be severely less...

Hi Y'all, My office runs a Dell server for our DHCP and an active directory file storage. They want to do periodic backups of critical data on the internal tape drive. I have never done this before and really don't know where to start. The most I've done is periodic Norton Ghost backups on...

Hi Y'all, Basically, that says it all. When I try to "Save As" in Word XP it will automatically close or crash. I then have to reoppen Word and retrieve the temporary saved document and redo the Save As command. Anyone know anything about this? The rest of my Office XP programs work fine...

Hi Ya'll, I installed quicktime and the pulg-ins onto my machine. I nstalled everything as the administrator and it worked fine while I was logged in as the administrator. However, all other accounts on my PC can't use Quicktime. This completely confuses me. Anyone else have this problem or...

Hi Y'all, I recently recieved a bunch of emails returned to me that make me very suspicious. We're running our server offsite, so I believe they do a good job weeding out worms and the like, but we have recieved some interesting return mail recently. Here's an example: ----- The following...

Hi Y'all, I just got thrown into a mix of things that I really am not ready to handle. Luckily, I'm a quick learner, but not that quick. I need to impliment a new database incorporating existing contacts on Outlook and files on our server. I'm thinking about using Access, but that's...
