On numerous XP Professional PCs, I have observed a behavior where the scanner's name in the device manager will be followed by "#2" or "#3". The scanner's functionality within the Windows environment is fine, but unfortunately my employer uses an antiquated program that is hard-coded to work...

Unfortunately, I believe the PIX runs a slightly different IOS than the traditional Cisco routers. That command didn't appear to be valid... I'm going to browse through the help files to see if there is a comparable command to be used on a PIX.

I doubt my boss will use the HyperTerminal-to-text-file method for backing up the configuration. The command you referenced (no password-encryption) will be used just so he can see the passwords and get them documented. That's really what I was interested in... and you provided that. His...

I believe the 2nd option you listed will be the one used. Thank you for (what I believe to be) an excellent response.

I am familiar with the process of backing up a configuration file to a TFTP server. However, this file contains encrypted VPN passwords. My concern is that when the file is restored to the PIX, the passwords will not be set back to their original state. Can anyone confirm this or offer any...

I just used MAC filtering as an example... not even sure if we're considering that or not. No matter... I believe you answered my question.

The organization I work for has purchased 10 Cisco Aironet 1200 wireless access points to provide wi-fi coverage for all employees. Is there any way to maintain a single configuration for the wireless access points? In other words, I'd like to apply a setting (perhaps allowing a specific MAC...

The printer is connected via its onboard network card to an ethernet network. Two clients PCs access the printer via a TCP/IP connection. I believe at one time it may have been connected via its parallel connection to the first client PC. Would that have anything to do with it perhaps?

When printing a 10 page Excel spreadsheet to a LaserJet 2600N, the Windows print spooler appears to hang (for several minutes) after printing a page or two. After several minutes pass the remaining pages will print. There is no unusual formatting in the spreadsheet... just text and a simple...

I believe I will try that. Thanks!

Sadly, both PCs in question login as "user" (an account with administrative rights) and a blank password. The users on the client machine will be able to print (without error or password prompt) until the client PC reboots. At that point they will receive the messsage "access denied - unable to...

Yes, to the best of my abilities. Because a domain is not present, shouldn't the "everyone" group be adequate? Something is definitely amiss.

Is it possible to share a printer on a Windows 2000 Professional PC to be accessed by another Windows 2000 Professional client? Before reading any further I need to sress that a Windows domain or domain controller is NOT involved in this scenario in any way... just 2 client PCs running Win2k...

The Win98 boot disk I was using did not have format so I booted from the Asus motherboard CD into something called "FreeDOS" and it only allowed me to create a single 2.1 GB FAT16 partition. I had no intentions of keeping this partition around... I just wanted to get into the portion of setup...

Here's the setup: Motherboard: Asus P5ND2-SLI (BIOS dated 5/27/05) CPU: P4 3.0 (Socket 775) Video Card: Single PCIe GeForce 6600GT RAM: 2 X 512 MB DDR2-533 HD: IDE Seagate 60 GB The PC boots fine with a Windows 98 boot disk. It can boot from a CD and can read/write to the IDE hard drive. This...

I should have some free time to test it this afternoon. Like most places, it's a crazy work environment here.

I totally see what you're saying now. Sorry!!! My day has been crazy and I just re-read your previous post... I will definitely be looking into that.

So you're sugguesting I contact our ISP and confirm the external IP address? If it is in fact incorrect, why am I able to telnet to 67.98.252.16 and access the SOHO91? (I understand that telnet is not encrypted and I certainly do not make it a habit of doing this from the external side)

I'm not sure. The natpool address for the first three sites is in fact the external IP of the SOHO 91 at each respective site... so why would we want to change that now?

The subnet mask on the router is correctly configured as 255.255.255.252 as assigned by our ISP. I'm not sure how that copied/pasted incorrectly.
