    LPT2 not in Add Printer Wizard

    I installed a PCI Parallel Port on an XP Pro machine that already had another PCI Parallel Port in addition to the on board parallel port. Yes, these user needs 3 parallel ports and cannot use a switchbox due to issues with her accounting software via a Citrix server. The problem I'm having is...

    Backup plan when VPN is down?

    Thanks for all the postings and Happy 2K5! I will check on the Watchguard info out there for any kind of routing options. The problem is cost and the main connection (not the backup) is the DSL or cable connection. I know T1 or fractional T1 might be too costly for us, either as a main or...

    Backup plan when VPN is down?

    Dial backup is the plan, but how to implement? Want this solution to be inexpensive, and access to app during normal working hours is critical. If VPN is down and support staff is unavailable (it happens!) we'll need some way to get multiple users access to the app remotely. But how? Our...

    Backup plan when VPN is down?

    We have several remote sites in Florida that have unreliable ISP's, therefore the VPN connections via Watchguard firewalls are not always up. Does anyone have a backup solution they are using for this type of scenario? I could have one user RAS in to the main LAN, but what do I do with...

    Subweb Permissions Administration Missing Items

    Using FP2002, I created a subweb, but when I go to make some permissions changes, the permissions administration page for the subweb only shows "Change permissions". Missing are "Change anonymous access settings", "Manage users", "Manage roles", and "Send an invitation". When I try to change...

    Changing Excel Default Column Headings?

    I have a user that wants to change the default column headings in Excel, from A....ZZ to custom headings such as File No., Name, etc. I've searched through Microsoft Help and the 'Net, no luck. I'm tempted to have her hide the row & column headings in View, then freeze the row that contains...

    sharing files between win95 & winxp

    Since that network is in another building in another city, I'm going from memory here. I know TCP/IP has been installed on all four. Looked for IPX/SPX NetBEUI, installed what I could. I could actually ping the Win95 PC's (we gave them all static IP's), but could not map a drive from XP to Win95.

    sharing files between win95 & winxp

    To wolluf, XP can't see the 95 machines, but the 95 machines can see the XP machine. Not accessible error occurs when I try to map drives on XP using \\win95 pc name\shared folder\. To smah, the only password I know of on the 95 shares is the initial logon. Where in 95 would I add other...

    sharing files between win95 & winxp

    We have a similar situation with 3 Win95 PC's networked together and we've just added a new XP PC. The Win95 PC's can all see the XP PC, but not the other way around. The workgroup name is the same for all, since all four can be seen from Win95 PC's. Whenever we try to access the shared...

    Laptop connection to standalone PC

    Here's a brain teaser for the New Year. We will have a standalone PC in an area near a Clearwater, FL courthouse. What's been requested is to have our court reps with laptops be able to move from courtroom to courtroom and access live client data from this standalone PC. My thought, since...

    Publisher 2002 distorted flipped objects

    I answered my own question! In playing around with my digital camera settings, I was able to decrease the image size from 2048x1536 to 1600x1200. This decreased the file size and Publisher XP rotated the new smaller photo on an angle with no distortion. Obviously, Publisher could not handle...

    Publisher 2002 distorted flipped objects

    Have an end-user that upgraded to Publisher XP (officially called 2002 SP-1). When she flips or rotates a digital photo, it becomes distorted, both the edges of the photo and the contents of the photo. "Straight" photos are ok, clear and crisp. For the most part, the photos look ok...

    W2K Pro Workstation not able to find domain.

    It's a happy day...I deleted an unused local profile so that only local administrator was left, added the DNS server IP to TCPIP config, added NetBEUI protocol, and enabled LMHOSTS lookup under the WINS tab. After rebooting, I was finally (!) able to add this PC to the domain. If it was one...

    W2K Pro Workstation not able to find domain.

    I believe this problem is workstation-related, rather than server or network-related. I can log onto the domain from PC1 with no problems, so the account is setup on the domain correctly. From PC2, I cannot connect to the domain, only to a workgroup. I can, however, ping the server from PC2...

    This is a Windows 2000 domain.

    W2K Pro Workstation not able to find domain.

    To techshoot, I did re-name the workgroup to be the same as the domain and also re-checked the computer names. Same result, cannot connect to the domain. To shovel204, I will try pointing to the server NIC. DNS and DHCP are enabled. Thanks. Don Staab The Salvation Army Correctional Services

    W2K Pro Workstation not able to find domain.

    I have W2K Server as a domain and two workstations with W2K Pro as test machines. After setting up users in Active Directory Users & Computers, I can only log into the domain from one PC. The other gives me "Network path not found" when I try to change from Workgroup to domain login...
