    Modem - switch - router?

    Hello, I have a network with a modem (LinkSys ADSL ME3), attached to a router (Linksys BEFSR81) granting network access to a bunch of computers. The router is blocking access to many sites one employee needs access to. We want to leave the security as it is, but circumvent it for one user. Is it...

    Using Cat5e cable for an RJ11 phone line

    One end of the cable will plug into an existing (provided by the phone company) box - so I need to attach an RJ11 jack to it. The other end needs to terminate in a wall mounted face plate - allowing a user to plug a fax machine into into it. I've googled a lot - and believe I've got the end to...

    Using Cat5e cable for an RJ11 phone line

    Hello! I'm sure this is a simple question for most here. I'm running cable in an office for a fax line. The cable is cat5e. One end of the cable terminates with a RJ11 jack and the other end terminates in an RJ11 wallplate. Based on what I've found online, on the wallplate end, I'm cabling as...

    Mapping a drive via profile in AD

    Hello, I need to map drives for different users on PCs that I don't have physical access to. I've done a bit of research, and think maybe what I need to do is create individual scripts for each user, mapping their drives, and add the script to their profile in Active Directory. I must be...

    NIC stopped working after virus scan

    I'm baffled! Booting into safe mode - still no network connectivity. Same when I boot to Knoppix. The cable I'm using works fine with another machine. Maybe - coincidentally - the NIC did go???!!?? Amber

    NIC stopped working after virus scan

    Thanks Walt, I did try removing it from device manager and let Windows find it and install drivers. It is an onboard NIC so moving it isn't an option. Any other suggestions? Thanks, Amber

    NIC stopped working after virus scan

    Hello, I ran Avast AV this morning - it found 1 infection and suggested a boot scan. This also found 1 infection and removed it. After rebooting, the network card completely stopped working. No lights show on the card - I've uninstalled/reinstalled the driver. I'm not sure that the virus issue...

    Citrix install questions

    Thanks. I read up a bit on the issue (license) - I tried the suggestions I found (restarting the service - manually pasting the license file in the proper directory). THen I installed the license file on a different server. I got the same results (inconsistant server host ID). From the server...

    Citrix install questions

    I've got a few questions about Citrix. I had Citrix Presentation Server 3.5 installed. I uninstalled, and installed a fresh install of Citrix. Support at Citrix told me to download XenApp 5.0 and install, then install Feature Pack, then Feature Pack 2, then Feature Pack 3. So I downloaded 5.0...

    VPN through a Router

    I think I have it resolved... I went in to advanced settings - virtual server I think?? and set up PPTP and IpSec as 'applications' - assign the laptop/IP address, and it seems to work. Thanks! Amber

    VPN through a Router

    I'm sure there is a more appropriate forum for my question - but I can't find it! I have a small workgroup - connected via a DLink router. I have a work laptop, running Windows 7 Business that I use VPN to connect to the office. My router wants to block this access. How can I open up a path...

    Network printing issues

    I have two networked printer questions: 1) I have a small office, with all 4 computers on a workgroup. Each PC/laptop is physically connected to a printer, and they are all shared so that others may use these printers. Each shared printer is installed on the other PCs/laptops. Under "Printers"...

    New domain - slow login for some

    I'm in the process of switching our servers & workstations to a new domain. For most PC's the transition is seamless (sometimes a bit slow) (adding the PC to the new domain and testing internet access). For some PC's it takes FOREVER! The boot process is super slow, the first time I go to...

    Licensed copy of Server 2005?

    Thanks for your help. That was my assumption, I just wasn't sure how to confirm it :) Looks like we're buying SQL Server 2008! Cheers, Amber

    Licensed copy of Server 2005?

    Thanks! The License Type comes up as 'disabled' and the Edition comes up as 'developer'. I suspect the IT group from the past set this up as a test server, without actual licensing maybe? What do these results mean? Thanks, Amber

    Licensed copy of Server 2005?

    Hello, How can I tell if my copy of SQL Server 2005 is licensed? I have a server with this installed on it (by a previous group of people). I suspect that they may have installed a trial version? or something similar (although it's been in use for a few years). Is there somewhere I could check...

    Can't log in to domain with server - can't log in locally to server!

    I should add that the password reset tool I use won't work with this server because it can't find the file system. This is a hot swappable raid server and I assume this is why the password reset won't work. I haven't had any luck finding other software that will do this. I assume if I can get in...

    Can't log in to domain with server - can't log in locally to server!

    The 2nd server I'm trying to join to the domain isn't an image of the first - it's running Oracle and apps. I tried unplugging the 2nd server, and logging into it locally. I can't log in. This isn't a newly created server, it's an existing one that is being moved to a new domain. The IT dept...

    Can't log in to domain with server - can't log in locally to server!

    I have big problems! I have just set up a new domain controller running Windows Server 2003. I've tested it with workstations, and connections work fine. Now I've taken another server (also running Server 2003) and tried to join it to my new domain. It seemed to work, then needed a reboot. On...
