I limited my suggestions to wifi because that wouldn't require them to trust you to know what you were doing. IF they did that in the 1st place the whole issue would be moot, and they'd trust you to do this without being prodded.

No.
The list for PCI Expansion gives you.
• 1x 64-bit 133/100/66MHz PCI-X (3.3V) slot
• 2x 64-bit 100/66MHz PCI-X (3.3V) slots
• 3x 32-bit 33MHz PCI (5V) slots
There's nothing about PCI-E there.

My advice is to sell it and use the p5roceeds towards a new dual/quad core system. In addition to not supporting any halfway decent GPUs, it only supports P4 xeon's, so they're only about as fast a 2gig modern CPU but will draw either 95 or 165W each. You'll also need expensive ECC ram, so it's going to be a slow power hungry moneypit.

Could someone explain what is and what for Smatp Domains(IIS6-> Default SMTP Virtual Server->Domains)?
I read here but didn't understood
Could you please explain me?
Thank you
|

I agree; the description of Remote Domains is rather vague. But the description of a local domain is clear enough. You get one default local domain with IIS6, which your SMTP server considers its own. Any mail arriving addressed to that domain will be delivered to a mailbox on your server (if the username is a member of the domain), or returned to sender if the username is unknown. You can also alias the local default domain in order to accept incoming mail addressed to the alias domain. Remote domains are a bit different, but if I'm reading it correctly - and the way I'd expect to set it up - are domains which are not local, but which you want your SMTP server to handle. Most SMTP servers in private networks are configured to reject mail for any domains other than local domains, in order to avoid unwittingly forwarding spam.

Hi all...
I have a ThinkPad, T400 laptop with windows 7 professional 64 bit on it, which has built-in modem - ThinkPad Modem Adapter, which is attached to COM3.
Everything worked very well until I plugged some external modem (via USB), which was detected perfectly by windows, and attached to COM5. After I plugged the external modem sound from both of the modems disappeared.
I've searched in any place I could think about where to change modem's volume, tried to configure it with ATL[0-2] command, removed USB modem, removed internal modem, installed it once again - nothing, there is no sound. It does works, it dials the phone numbers, but without any single sound, and sound is what I need most of all!
Any ideas how can I fix it?
thanks in advance!

Hi.
I have a laptop(Toshiba).When i make wireless network and other(for example 1) connect to my network and want to get a file(s)(with 1 GB size)it take 4 hour or more to get.Is that common?
Are there some ways to make the speed high?
Thank you.
CanI

No, it's not. Your speed problem is probably antenna related. The closer you can get to a direct line of site to the AP, the better. If you're going through a floor or too many walls, that will reduce speed. Composition of the walls will also have an effect on speed. If you're in an EM noisy area, that will also reduce speeds. Orientation of the AP's antenna will have an effect. It goes on and on...
About the only settings you can change that would have a dramatic effect on speed would be the channel number you're using. Google for "802.11 wireless best channel" and start reading and experimenting. Who knows...you may even find a tool to tell you what your best channel is.

it also depends on your type of wireless. is it 802.11a/b/g/n? the lowest letter of the participants determines maximum speed of the communication.
on 802.11n 1GB should take less than one hour.
if you can and haven't already, it makes sense to compress the data before transmitting it; any ZIP utility would be fine (but it wouldn't help for things that are compressed already, such as JPEG files).

I sure hope he doesn't try to compress the files over wireless!

Now there's an idea.

Hi i have a big PhotoCopy device and it has a network and a USB port.
I'm using win7 and i want to print my word file with that device.

A useful piece of diagnosis; what do you expect to happen?
You may find that reading the device's handbook will explain how to connect to use as a printer. Many of these types of device handle most of their printing via the network rather than through a direct USB connection.
Just say 'NO' to evaluated arguments for diadic functions! Ash

And you're going to need the drivers for it, whatever it is...

Hi thank u.
Well when i connect the USB line there is no reaction in windows.As u know whenever u connect a device windows shows a message that device is installed or not.But now there is nothing to show and see.
And it may need the driver. as u said...
Thank you.
CanI

|

Yeah, so?? Without the driver, plugging it in won't get you anywhere anyway.
|
|
|
|

For most USB-enabled devices, you must install the correct driver on your computer before connecting the device. Although Windows will detect a new connection, it won't be able to recognize it without the driver and will not respond. Generic mass storage devices are an exception, as Windows has a built-in driver for them; for any other device, install the driver first.

I'm considering setting up a small server at home - to run TFS and SqlServer.
* I'm not interested in learning about setting up & maintaining a domain server, so "all things network" are not AFIK important.
* I'll probably use it as a print & server.
* Ideally it'll be very quiet
* Ideally, it'll have an some easy way to make periodic backups (tape? CD? external HD? Suggestions?)
* I'd like it to be cheap (sub $1k; preferably closer to $500, but that's not critical)
* Performance is not critical - I'll not be doing anthing heavy duty with it
For those of you who have something remotely resembling this:
* what hardware are you running?
* what non-Microsoft software have you added?
* how satisfied are you with your setup?
For those of you who have no hardware, but plentiful opinions, suggestions and ideas:
* what would you recommend?
Last but not least:
* what haven't I asked / what do you think I should be thinking about .. that I'll regret if I don't consider it before spending $$?
Thanks,
Chris

Might be a bit hard to run TFS without that... Not sure if you CAN, never looked.

Stay away from a rack mount system then.
Chris Trelawny-Ross wrote: I'd like it to be cheap (sub $1k; preferably closer to $500, but that's not critical)
If you want it to run DECENT then plan on spending closer to the 1000 mark. Trust me on that. TFS is a bit of a hog.
Chris Trelawny-Ross wrote: Performance is not critical - I'll not be doing anything heavy duty with it
Yes you are, you are running TFS 
As far as what I was running this type of setup on, I spent the money and had a dual P4 with 4 GB RAM, 1TB HD, did backups to a DVD writer, and was running it with MS SBS as base so I also had Exchange, DC, etc.. on it all.
I was OK with the setup. The SBS stuff made it a bit unstable after a while (I was never a big fan of SBS but the cost was right at the time).
Chris Trelawny-Ross wrote: what non-Microsoft software have you added?
Minor utilities... IE: DVD Backup SW that was SBS compatible, Antivirus (Avast) ETC...
Could have used more RAM, TFS ran very slow on it, but it got the job done at the time.
Really though, check first to see if you can run TFS in a non-domain environment. I am not sure if you can just run it as a shared server. I think it needs domain 'stuff'.

Good catch about the domain server TFS requirement. Many thanks. Also, re the horsepower requirements of TFS.
|
|
|
|

Did some research - apparently TFS does not require use of Active Directory for user authentication (see MSDN: Managing Team Foundation Server in a Workgroup[^] ... but I suspect it may be simpler.
And, now that I think about it, it wouldn't hurt to learn a bit about setting up Active Directory and a domain controller.

Just make the TFS a DC also That part is so lightweight you will never notice
Work-group mode...
Shudder...
Can't remember the last lime I was NOT in domain mode around here at the house.

Meanwhile I shudder at the thought of having to pay several hundred dollars more per windows upgrade cycle just for pro level OS licenses. If Win8 allows joining a small domain at the Home Premium level I'll probably set one up, until then it's not worth the expense. Even then, unless I can get a free server 2012(?) license or they add domain controller to WHS I'll probably end up running LDAP on a *nix box. Server class OSes and tools are just too $*#@)$ expensive otherwise.

If you have current projects that can leverage MS tech then consider something like joining their BizSpark program. Very cheap and gets you a ton of benefits, one of them being access to MSDN subscriptions. The cost at a company level is like $100 a year.
