    License compatability

    We have a server that is using Netware 5.1 SBS. Since it's installation, it has been rock solid and serves our needs so we had no reason to upgrade. However, we do need a few more licenses. I found someone who is selling a 5-user Netware 5 SBS license disk. Does anyone know if this can be used...

    Replacement Battery Cartridge 31

    According to the manufacturer, this is a 24V pack, so you would wire 2 sets in series and 2 in parallel.

    Can I login to 2 servers at once?

    Here's the issue. We have been using NW6 for years as our file server. We actually run 2 companys. The server is getting overloaded with all the users, their big files and email (GW6). We want to stick with NW since it is so darn reliable. Instead of getting a bigger server, they decided to...

    Install Windows Server 2003

    Many of the big manufacturers, like Dell, HP and IBM give you a quick and easy installation CD. You boot from their CD, enter your information, remove that disk and insert the Windows CD and installation is automated. If that is what you are doing, your installation CD may be specifically for...

    Strange issue installing wireless extender

    We have a network of about 25 PC's (XP) and a Server (Win2K3). We had a wireless router installed and it works fine, except that we have a large building and the signal doesn't reach the corners. No problem. I bought a wireless range extender to install at the mid point of the building and it...

    dbase4 and windows 7

    I'm not sure if it will work with Windows 7. I am assuming it will not. We also have an application in dbase4 and need to replace a couple of PC's (with Windows 7) soon, but haven't done it yet. If you are using Windows 7 Business, you can download and install XP Compatibility Mode. When...

    What is a PCA slot?

    Thanks for the info. That makes sense.

    What is a PCA slot?

    Someone asked me to install dual monitors on their PC. It is an HP DX 2000 MT desktop PC. It has built in video. I usually order a PCI-E card, but the Specs on this machine says it has (3) PCIA slots. What are PCIA slots? I don't have the machine here so I can't look inside. Any info is...

    2 NICs (from another user)

    It is a branded Server - it's Intel, but there is not that option in the drivers. Update: I tried using the 'Port Trunking feature on the switch and defined the 2 network connections, but my WS network connections got disabled after I did this. I do notice that there is a 'Port Mirroring'...

    2 NICs (from another user)

    I also searched the posts but am still confused. Here's my intention: The Server has 2 NIC's installed (GB), but only 1 is active. The server is running low CPU utilization, but the network connection to the workstations seems like it has heavy utilization. I want to load balance as well as...

    Seasonal screensavers

    Quote "None... not even the ones build in... they may look good, but unless you have a CRT Monitor, they are no longer needed... " I never thought so either. In our server room, we have 3 servers running. Over the past couple of years, we replaced the CRT monitors with LCD monitors one by one...

    installation nightmare

    Thanks for the vote of confidence. I am just trying to do the most efficient thing and don't want to waste more time waiting for the O/S to arrive and reinstall it all over again. And, yes, I was also paranoid about the legality of doing this, even though it is only temporary.

    installation nightmare

    We have 2 servers running - a Windows 2000 Server and a Windows 2003 Server - each with 25 licenses. There was a power failure and on the Win 2K server, the UPS batteries must have been dead, so it just crashed. It would no longer boot after that. There was a strange POD error relating to BIOS...

    Allow only certain URL's in Internet Explorer

    I just set up a proxy and it worked great. Very simple and quick and does the job. Thanks...

    Allow only certain URL's in Internet Explorer

    Yes, we run on a domain.

    Allow only certain URL's in Internet Explorer

    On our network of Windows XP Pro SP2 PC's, we have disabled internet access for certain PC's that do not require it for their job. This has eliminated corruption and servicing on these PC's. There is now a need to have a few stations access a couple of URL's only (vendors). I was looking for a...

    Need extended run time on UPS

    I have already completed this project.

    Need extended run time on UPS

    We need our server to stay up for at least several hours instead of 10 minutes when power fails. The UPS is APC Smart UPS 700. The load is currently about 43%. It has 2 internal 12V (24V total), 7.2AH batteries. I was thinking on getting 2 large 77AH batteries and connecting them externally...

    Disk size reported incorrectly

    Yes, I ran a disk check (no problems), disk cleanup (nothing to clean) and also defrag. The files were very fragmented, but the bar graph on defrag shows I am using the higher amount of space. What I am doing now is erasing the backup drive, then copying each folder 1 at a time to it to see if I...

    Disk size reported incorrectly

    Yes, if you reread the post, it says that.
