I need help. I'm about to set up a network. I need to know if what i'm doing is correct.
Where does the server go on your network? I keep reading everywhere that you would put your Windows Server on same switch as your router...... I guess i'm just not 100% clear on how your Central Windows Server that is on same switch as router would be able to communicate with your windows machines in your network when the windows machines are scattered at different hubs (these hubs all eventually connect back to the switch). How do the Windows Workstation and and Windows Server see each other? Any help would be appreciated ^_^
Thanks
P.S. Treat me like an idiot please, explain little stuff too. I am new to networking, so please don't assume i know something, cause chances are I don't.
