    Two different subnets communicating?

    I have a LAN with a subnet 255.255.255.0 and DHCP as 192.168.1.x. I also have a Cisco RV220w router that I purchased because I wanted to set up VPN and connect to my network remotely. Now, my remote computer is on the same Workgroup (ACPHO) but when I connect via VPN, I do so successfully and I...

    Introduction to Windows Server

    So my server has arrived (HP ProLiant ML110 G7) and I just finished installing Win Server 2008 Std R2 (yay). I'm working my way through the initial configuration tasks and I'm wondering where to start with the rest of server configuration. I understand that I might want to install a few roles...

    Introduction to Windows Server

    I have my user numbers a bit off -- there are 3 in head office, 2 in the remote, and 1 for the vendor for support. The way Microsoft packages its software is so very confusing. Here's the list I'm working from. Here's what I believe to be the correction options: Server 2008 R2 Standard ($760)...

    Introduction to Windows Server

    Chiefcrowe - thank you for the links and Lifted, sounds like you're right: SBS 2011 looks like a pretty good fit. I had a chat with the Windward guys and the only key feature I need is the support of terminal services as the second location will be connecting to the application remotely. SBS...

    Introduction to Windows Server

    I guess it's the "server class" that I'm lost on. Are the only differences concurrent connections? Given I have <10 users currently, I could run XP/7, it wouldn't allow for growth in the future. The software I'm looking to run is a point of sale, inventory, and accounting package called...

    Introduction to Windows Server

    This is my first foray into Windows Server, and I need a little guidance on selecting the correct version. I don't need anything too advanced, just a stable OS capable of running a client/server application accessible by 7 users across 2 locations. In fact, I'm not even sure Windows Server is...

    G5 PowerPC Mac: Video card options?

    I've got the 2.0 dual-core PowerPC Mac - the last upgrade before the Mac Pro and recently purchased a 37" LG LCD TV. I've already got two monitors running on the card I've got in my Mac right now, so that leaves me no output for the LG. I wanted to get another video card, but I know my options...

    New G5 iMac or Dual 2Ghz PowerMac?

    Hi guys, Well, a couple of months ago I posted in the OS forum asking for advice regarding a PC user going Mac. The conclusion that I ultimately came to at that point was that I wasn't ready for a Mac -- money was a major issue -- and the fact that for the same price (or cheaper), I could...

    Sound Glitches in XP

    The HDD is in the RAID IDE slot, but it's just running like a normal HDD, not in a RAID array. Took your suggestion and went over to the VIA website, downloaded the latest 4in1 drivers, various IDE drivers and made sure I had all the latest updates from the Windows Update site... and still...

    Sound Glitches in XP

    Hmmm... I've had XP up before (before I installed the 80GB) and with the same hardware configuration everything was running perfectly. I've got an Abit KT7-RAID board.

    Sound Glitches in XP

    Just picked up a new 80GB Seagate Barracuda IV 7200RPM 2MB cache HDD and I hooked it up, she's been formatted, partitioned, the works. I've done a fresh install of XP Pro Corp, got the latest drivers, updates, you name it and everything is going smoothly. Except for my sound. I've got a SB...
