    missing comm port 3 for modem

    I was very fortunate that the owner had the original CD for the modem. I removed the modem in 'devices' then refreshed and loaded drivers from CD. It took comm 4 and works.

    Folder Replication

    I know of 3 ways for replicating in W2K 1) DFS (as above) if you are using Active Directory but I don't know much about it. 2) Briefcase: Manual replication - gives you full control of each modified file replication. 3) Offline files: Can be replicated automatically on a schedule. Make sure it...
