    Remote Desktop Local LPT Printer Win2k & XP Pro

    Nope. I just started using a PDF writer to "print" files to local drives on the machine and then printing them.

    No signal over 150ft of Cat-5

    On *both* ends the wires inside go (from left to right) - Solid Green - > Striped Green -> Solid Orange -> Striped Orange -> Solid Brown -> Striped Brown -> Solid Blue -> Striped Blue. I can also see all the wires are all the way up if I look at it from the front. When I stick the end in the...

    No signal over 150ft of Cat-5

    It was tested by the guys at the computer shop I bought it from... I put the ends on myself because they wanted $30[!] to do it... I don't know their exact methods of testing, but they said it was fine...

    No signal over 150ft of Cat-5

    Hey, I've got a Netopia 3546 DSL router hooked up to a computer over 150ft of Cat-5. I had the cable tested before I ran it across the ceiling at it was fine, but I can't get link lights from it now that it's up so no connection to the web/network... Any ideas?

    Remote Desktop Local LPT Printer Win2k & XP Pro

    My local LTP printer won't show up when I use remote desktop connection over our VPN. I've tried making another shared printer, my port is set to ECP, I've tried the net use command and it still won't show up. This happens on both the local XP Pro box that has the printer hooked up to it and...

    R&RA Kills my Network

    When I enable routing and remote access on my 2k server, it takes the whole network offline. Local clients are no longer able to connect and the server can't see them either. The second I disable it, everything is fine. Am I missing something simple?

    Getting a VPN through a firewall?

    That didn't work either... This is what it looks like currently: remote ipfilter flush input internet remote ipfilter flush output internet remote ipfilter flush transmit internet remote ipfilter flush receive internet eth ip filter flush input 0 eth ip filter flush output 0 eth ip filter...

    Getting a VPN through a firewall?

    I'll bump this up one more time and then let it die... Has anyone ever setup a Efficient 5861 ADSL router with a firewall and allowed VPN connections to get though it? How?

    I need a low profile PCI video card.

    Not as I would like to. I think I will end up getting a normal PCI video card and modding it to fit (there should be just enough room). Now I would like it to be the PCI Radeon 9000, but I never buying anything like that without reading at least one review, and I can't find one, I guess that's...

    I need a low profile PCI video card.

    I think killowhat gave me one for pointing out the PCI Radeon 9000. killowhat said on Dec 18, 2002: "hey drfish, this might be what i have been looking for."

    I need a low profile PCI video card.

    cdogg, I totally agree with you, I only said that because if you have a slow CPU and you want to play DX8 games with it you should have a DX8 video card to offload as much as possible from the CPU. If the CPU doesn't have to emulate pixel shaders because your video card can do it then it will...

    I need a low profile PCI video card.

    I believe the CPU is what emulates pixel shaders (which would be a good reason to put a DX8 card in even a low end system, save as many CPU cycles as you can for other things). Vertex shaders on the other hand can't be emulated (or at least aren't) and require the GPU to have the ability to do...

    I need a low profile PCI video card.

    The Geforce4 MX anything does NOT support vertex and pixel shaders. It would be easy to take the faceplate off the card and yes, the PCI slots are in the same arrangment. The only problem is finding a card that isn't too wide and would prevent the case from closing. Also, without a proper...

    I need a low profile PCI video card.

    Sorry cdogg, I've heard the term "low profile" before and didn't think to explain it, thanks for trying to help in spite of my negligence. paparazi, yeah, that's what I'm thinking I'll have to end up doing, I'll have to do some measuring to made sure that will work. Is the fastest...

    Getting a VPN through a firewall?

    Do I need to open the firewall to a specific range of IP addresses? How secure is this? Should the remote computers have static IPs? Would it be more secure than just opening the port like I'm trying to do?

    I need a low profile PCI video card.

    Thank you for explaining that nohandle4me. Yeah, I've checked everywhere, that's why I posted the question here. I found this http://navasgrp.home.att.net/tech/low_profile_video.htm but I can't find the product for sale anywhere. It's not a huge deal, but it'd be nice to have something better...

    I need a low profile PCI video card.

    I know I can get PCI video cards on pricewatch, but I need a low profile one... And the only ones I can find are 8meg Nvidia Vantas.

    I need a low profile PCI video card.

    Pricewatch wasn't much help this time, I tried it before I came here. I need a PCI card because the computer doesn't have an AGP slot (it's a new Gateway, one of those stupid micro slim tower deals). It's at work and I'm just hoping for something better that the integrated video.

    I need a low profile PCI video card.

    What's the fastest low profile PCI video card out there and where can I get one? I've looked around but can't find many and no one that sells them. Seems like all of them out there are Geforce2 MX based, is that what you've found too?
