hello all,
i have a windows 2000 tcp/ip peer to peer network (4 machines) w/ 2 HP jet direct connected printers. i've setup them up with 192.168... ips. everything is working fine. i need to connect an isdn to them. the isdn is connected throught another hub so i'll run a cable from my hub (via uplink port?) to that hub. the machines that are already connected to that hub are then connected to an nt4 server and then the isdn. the other machines have there network setup so as they obtain an ip automatically and use dhcp. my question is this. how do i configure my machines to work with isdn and still have my peer to peer work. do i need to obtain ip's automatically (as the other machines are) and what will happen to my peer to peer when there are no assigned ip's. or is there another setting? all i want is access to the isdn bandwidth. i don't care about the other network or server.
thanks,
bill eakins
