Shouldn't the external listen to 80 and then the internal listen to 81 since i told the server computer to listen to that port. The only reason i did this...

    Web hosting behind a router

    I'm trying to host a website behind my router. I've forwarded the port 80 to the internal IP (192.168.1.6) but no luck I've forwarded the ext. port 80 to internal port 81 in the router... no luck Finally, i DMZed to 192.168.1.6 and it worked. I don't understand what could be wrong. -Any ideas?

    Firewire and Ethernet =

    The problem is that when firewire is enabled at all, it flips out...er... takes over the internet connection. This is worrisome because what if i wanted to connect a camera or something? would the same thing happen. Seems like there is a binding problem, but i'm not sure where its at.

    Adaptative CPU Software

    I was wondering if anyone know about software that could slow down the clock speed of a computer when not in use and then kick it back up when the user returns. I want to impliment it in 3 older computers running either a P2 or P3 proc. Any information on this would be great. Thank you

    Windows XP Pro Networking got me down...

    I just want to ask simply, why is it so hard for XP Pro to have two settings for network sharing. One allowing anyone to access that ONE folder and another where the folder's permissions are specific to what you set. Seems so freaking simple. So why is it when i turn on read permissions and...

    Gaming in XP - nothing works

    I recently bought a sony vaio laptop and i'm noticing that all of the sudden many games i use to play on my old machine (with XP Pro as well) don't run at all. They all classically start up to a black screen and then quit to the desktop. The current games i've tried are Black and White, Worms...
