    VPN issue - Cannot access network

    Hello, I am trying to get a VPN running between a PIX 506E running 6.3(5) and the Cisco VPN client version 4.6. I am able to connect and authenticate, but I am unable to ping or access servers on the internal network. I've been beeting my head on this for a week now, and would really...

    Help Help Help!! Cant access storage drive anymore

    By the sound of it, it was not a "Basic" NTFS partition. Ususally, the applications and even Linux rescue disks (such as Knoppix) have no problem reading NTFS partitions if it is a basic partition. The problem arises when you upgrade the drive to a "Dynamic" disk in Windows. I've had so many...

    Buying a PC

    Since this is his business PC, and I'm guessing everything is on this one PC, it may be worth looking into a second internal hard drive and setting up a mirror (RAID 1). He should still do the external backup, but this way he won't have to worry about the downtime should his hard drive up and...

    KDE vs. GNOME

    If your just looking for something with less weight than Gnome or KDE, there's also Fluxbox and FXce. Either one of these may fit the bill as well, and should easily be found in the Debian repositories. Jarrett

    power button broken off on laptop!

    I have the same issue with an old Satallite at home, where the power button stuck and eventually broke. I have popped the case open to take a look at the actual button, which is small and has a rubber cap on it. I used a pen for a few months to turn it on, which eventually ripped the rubber...

    Cannot connect to print server.

    Well, I've pretty much given up on this issue. Since I had to go to the remote location today, I tried changing out the print server. It didn't help. I just couldn't put much more time into the problem and hold up that location in a new label printer implememntation. I went ahead and changed...

    How do I know if a MOBO will fits into my new tower?

    If you have a full ATX case, you should be able to but almost any ATX motherboard in it. If it is a mini- or micro-ATX case, it will not take a full-ATX motherboard. Also, there are a few extended-ATX motherboards, usually marketed to the server market, that may not fit in most ATX cases...

    AMD computer will not work anymoore need HELP.

    Check your memory. I had a system that was spotty, some times booted ok, some times no post. It turned out I had one bad stick of memory screwing everything up. Popped it out and everything was fine. Got a new stick and everything is better. Jarrett

    Cannot connect to print server.

    I tested about 5 PCs/Servers from this subnet and all can ping this print server without a problem. I can also ping other devices/PCs on the .60 subnet with the server in question. I only seem to have a problem between this one server and the print server. I need to install the printers...

    distribution for an older computer

    Which release to run really will depend on how much legacy hardware you need to run. If you don't have legacy hardware (other than the pc and monitor listed above), then a newer release should be fine. If you have old PCI/ISA cards and peripherals your going to be using as well, then use a...

    Cannot connect to print server.

    Sorry about the wait. It took me a couple days to find time to do this. I am not seeing ICMP info leaving the server when I ping between 192.168.1.152 and 192.168.60.81. All I see when I try to ping is ARP requests. I am seeing ICMP traffic when I ping 192.168.60.80 from 192.168.1.152. I...

    distribution for an older computer

    Any distro should be fine. If you want, check out Distrowatch to find the distro that will work best for you. Seeing that you anly have 128MB of RAM, Fluxbox or FXce might be a better chouce in desktop. Also, a Gentoo-based distro might be good too. They are source-based distros that compile...

    Cannot connect to print server.

    Thanks mhkwood. Sorry, I am getting 4 time outs between the server and the HP jetDirect 500X print server. This is a working print server, as one of the ports is used by another printer in the office that is not mapped through the local file server. I have had the print server unplugged a...

    Cannot connect to print server.

    Hi all. I'm having a strange issue trying to connect to a print server in a remote location. To give a really quick rundown of the topology, we have frame relay connecting multiple sites, local file servers at the sites, printers are on internal or external print servers, application servers...
