    Difficulty connecting 4 new Procurves for 1st time

    I have not setup any test devices on VLAN 75. My primary focus was getting VLAN 302 operational such that I could ssh or telnet to the switches and complete setting up VLAN 75 for the backup server and hosts to be backed up.

    Difficulty connecting 4 new Procurves for 1st time

    Some additional progress, I had static routes on my PC which prevented me from reaching the Procurves. With those deleted, I can now reach all four switches from my test PC. That resolved, does this mean I must cross cable the VLAN 75 ports switch to switch? This certainly creates a physical...

    Difficulty connecting 4 new Procurves for 1st time

    I have made some progress. Based on the last recommendation, I removed the ports from the trunk configurations and just put those ports in VLAN 302 as untagged ports. From each switch, I can ping the other three in the configuration. However, from my test PC, I can only access the first device...

    Difficulty connecting 4 new Procurves for 1st time

    Ok, in my case, two ports are going in opposite directions as the switches are essentially chained together. So back to the earlier recommendation, if I remove the trunk specification on the indicated ports above and just make then untagged in VLAN 302, I can manage them, correct? The remaining...

    Difficulty connecting 4 new Procurves for 1st time

    Prior to your last update I changed my trunk groups and put the trk2 setting where trk1 appeared on a second trunk port in the configurgation. Specifically on the middle two switches. After that, I can from any switch in the group ping any of the four. With respect to your recent posting, can...

    Difficulty connecting 4 new Procurves for 1st time

    I realized I had not turned on spanning-tree, so I enabled that in each of the Procurves. I enabled flow-control on the trunk ports for comparison, but, that had no affect so I disabled flow-control on each of the ethernet ports in the trunk configuration. As of this writing, switch A...

    Difficulty connecting 4 new Procurves for 1st time

    I have three 2626 and one 2824 switch I have obtained and want to make these work together over a trunked connection. They are cabled togther but cannot communicate over the trunks I thought I setup correctly. They are accessible via the console each but no more and I have cabled them together...

    Installing server 2003 on PC with two disks

    Thanks Roadki11, I ended up re-starting the install, deleting the secondary E: partition on the second disk spindle and formatting C: with subsequent install. After completed, I logged in an formatted secondary E: drive. Not sure that's appropriate or if it works it's appropriate. Thanks anyway.

    Installing server 2003 on PC with two disks

    I am for the first time installing Windows server 2003. I have two spindles (C: & E:) which I have installed the application and I would rather have the OS on just C: and leave E: for data. I am sure I erred in my installation choices. Drive C is a basic NTFS system partition and drive E is a...
