    Network 2 buildings

    Currently have a building with a network of 4 servers and 70 workstations. There's another building about 700 feet from us that we are going to start using. I want to keep all servers here and have them connect to us just like they were here. I figured the best way to do this would be to lay...

    Can't access my network shares

    Guys, keep in mind that I imaged the old hard drive that had no problems from another computer. Why would a static IP give me trouble, but when I use DHCP it does not? The network shares can be accessed fine with DHCP, just not Static. Thanks.

    Can't access my network shares

    I imaged my old hard drive onto a new computer. That hard drive had a static ip address assigned to the network card. When I started using my new computer I had no problem accessing network shares or using the Internet. However, the problem was that nobody could access the network shares on my...

    Network monitoring tools

    I have just set up 5 users that are using Citrix on an ICA client. Randomly, Citrix is closing and reconnecting because of a lost connection on these clients. The server is not set to timeout, and there are a few users that can keep it open all day long without a problem. Well I need to figure...

    Firewall help - Sonicwall

    Hello, I have a Sonicwall TZ170. This firewall has an OPT port which I am using in transparent mode for public IP addresses to be used for VOIP phones. I need to set up 7 VOIP phones, but I only had 4 usable IP's from my block of 8. So I requested an additional block of 8 and received it from...

    Transparent mode and NAT?

    I have LAN, WAN, and OPT. I can run OPT in Transparent mode with a public IP, but I don't really know what that does or mean, so I need to find out what OPT even is.

    Transparent mode and NAT?

    I have the Sonicwall TZ170 and those instructions are not the same. I'm wondering if I can create a DMZ in OPT like it is saying.

    Transparent mode and NAT?

    I have about 40 computers on the network. I only want to map 7 VOIP phones and leave the rest of the PC's with DHCP and NAT. Thanks for the link.

    Transparent mode and NAT?

    I have always used my Sonicwall with NAT. However, we recently purchased some new Voice over IP phones and were told to program public IP addresses into the phone. These phones will plug into the network behind the firewall, but will not work with NAT. So they told me the Sonicwall had to be...

    Windows, hard drive, memory, or motherboard?

    Ok, here's the deal. The PC I built is about a year and a half old. Has run great. However, early this week when I booted up it automatically went into Chkdsk. I am running Windows XP SP2. I would bypass this and go into my computer with no problem. I ran Chkdsk /x to not perform Chkdsk on...

    Putting a Windows 98 drive into a Win 2k PC

    I have a computer that has Windows 98 running on it. I have another computer that has Windows 2000 running on it. Instead of copying over files from the Win 98 machine, I was thinking of just pulling the hard drive of the Win 98 machine and putting it in as a slave in the Win 2k machine. Would...

    I have purchased a new backup system to replace my current outdated one, and the one piece left in the puzzle is deciding on a good backup software for a reasonable price. I purchased a Quantum DLT VS160 tape drive, and here's a link to "compatible" software solutions...
