Thanks for the link purplehayes. Linuxnewbie is the type of site we all need. I'm new to linux, and it will be more help than redhat's web site, which seems to assume we are all familiar with linux.
Norssak has the right idea. Some times network neighborhood just needs a kick start. Try also just typing in the comuter name in the browser address box e.x. \\machine name. If it works it should show all the shares for the machine. If it still doesn't work try uninstalling all the network stuff...
Is the drive even configured in bios? Make sure the bios sees the drive.
You should create a boot disk that has the format and fisk utilities on it. Boot off the floppy, use fdisk to remove all partitions. Then create the partitions desired, marking one of them active. Reboot to the disk...
Spanker has it right. Doing the at home network rules. Do everything from building your machines, to wiring the network, and installing and configuring the systems. Build your own email/ftp/web servers. School is a great place to learn the basics of how systems work, but will never teach you any...
It sounds like there may be some issues with permissions. If things work fine with the administrator, but not the user, then the user may not be privileged. Try changing the user to the administrator group, and then log in. Also check the rights of the programs you're trying to run. (Assuming...
I find they all work fine. It's having a terrible cd burner that will lead to ultimate frustration. I've got about 20 disks on the wall (not to mention the ones I broke in a fit of anger)that failed due to a budget burner. I finally broke down and spent the $250 bucks on Sony. Not a single...
Bummer, I just tried my suggestion, and it didn't work. The ethernet adapter has a global configuration it seems. The changes I made in one profile affected all the others too.
Sorry, I have no other ideas. DHCP will be your best bet, or the user will have to change the IP address everytime...
Try creating another user on his laptop. START>SETTINGS>CONTROL PANEL>USERS AND PASSWORDS. One for work, one for home. Each of them can have their own connection settings, and things can be kept seperate. If both profiles need to access the same files he'll have to copy them to the hard drive...
I've been looking for a job for 5 months. I've got knowlegde, a CCNA, and the desire to work with computers. That all doesn't mean Jack sh*t. Everyone wants to see experience on your resume. I can run circles around some of the network techs I've met, along with the MIS guys, but still no...
Is the machine hooked to a switch? I've ssen a similar problem before. The swith (cisco) had to be set to "no autonegotiation". If you're planning on using full duplex you cannot use autoneg. It will default to half duplex. I figure since you're using fiber you probably want to use...
Your "clever" install may be the cause of your problems. Win2000 has what is called the HAL(hardware absraction layer). When installed it "verifies" "all" the hardware is "compatible". If it's not the install may not go through, or is may ask you if you...
What OS are you running? If it's 2000 then the green will never be moved. Those are system files that don't get moved. I assume win9x uses the same color scheme, but I haven't used it in ages so I don't remember. I get the same problem in 2000 occasionally. I found the best way to defrag things...
That's because linux installs lilo(linux loader) into the boot sector. You just replaced the master boot record with the /mbr option. Good job. If it's still formated in the linux format there won't be much you can do.
I agree linux is a pain in the butt to figure out, but I think it's well...
