I am trying to determine what, if anything, is unique about the cable required to connect my server to this Compaq UPS. My tech department brought the UPS out with the server, and no cable was supplied. I have tried a straight through serial cable, but when I connect it to the serial port on...
I have a Win2k server (SP3) that I'm trying to install Retrospect Server v5.5. Every time I attempt to install it runs for 20-30 seconds and then stops, giving me an error message saying it has been interrupted, is stopping the install and no files have been changed.
I've shut down darned near...
The update went without a hitch. Guess I'm living right. Thanks to all for the support and suggestions.
I asked because I used the ill-fated SP6.0 in NT during the 2 weeks or so that it was out. It royally hosed up my servers, took me the better part of a day to straighten things out and gave...

Is there anything I need to be aware of if I'm updating to SP3? I know this is a broad question, but the last SP I dide was on an NT machine and it screwed things up royally (SP6.0).
Thanks!

Update the firmware. If you do this the settings will all be set back to the factory defaults and you can use "admin" with no password to get in.
You can download firmware from the 3Com Website and use a serial connection to upload it. There is a text file with each firmware download...
I have 2 - 3000FX fiber switches that are the core of my LAN. 98% of my workstations are Macs, with 2 servers being PCs - 1 - Win2k and 1 - NT 4.0.
Monday I had a complaint from one of our buildings that they could not access the network with their iMacs. I had link lights at both ends of the...
It has been suggested that HP printers don't like to play nice with DCHP and should have fixed IP addresses.
That could very well be, but this was the first occurrence of this sort I've had with the same configuration for over 2 years. I have yet to experience it again.
Worst case scenario I...
Thanks for the suggestion. I'll check the settings when I'm back on campus in the morning.
What I find odd is that the other printers on the LAN are just fine, yet they have the same periods of inactivity the ones dropping off do, too. It seems to be centered around two particular switches fomr...
I have a LAN that was recently changed over from 3Com hubs to 3Com SS II 1000 and 3000 switches. All has been well until a few days ago.
I have 9 - HP 4050N LaserJet printers on the network. Over the last two nights 5-6 of them have been "dropping off" the LAN, that is, they no longer...
I have the following setup:
Win98SE
QLogic FAST SCSI adapter
Retrospect 5.6 Server
Exabyte EXB-10e

Exabyte EXB-10i (both set for random operation)
Retrospect plays nice with other autoloaders I have (ADIC) without any problems. When I try and run the Exabyte autoloaders on this system...

I want to update the firmware on some SS 1000 switches but the 3Com serial utility does not appear to support these switches. The firmware updates for this switch have an *.slx extension rather than a binary (*.bin) extension as the serial update utility requires.
I have tried simply plugging...
I may not have been clear on this. These switches are currently not in service - they're sitting in a stack on my bench. I want to update the software without having to configure or install them in the LAN if possible.
Since these don't use the serial utility for updates like the later SS...
I just discovered a closet with 6 - 3Com SuperStack Desktop switches piled on a shelf. They all power up and appear to be working properly. I could use these to cover the expansion I'm experiencing in a couple of areas.
I've looked over the docs on 3Com's Web site and can't seem to determine...
I have some 3Com switches that need their firmware updated, specifically some SS Desktop and 3000FX switches. These apparently rely on a server side update via TFTP. Since these are out of a system at present and I have established a minimum of "manager" access to all via Telnet I was...
