Keep posting your progress... it's really not hard, but it's hard to describe how to do this from memory. I subscribe to Einstein's advice - never memorize what you can look up - and since I have no XP machine handy, I can't easily give you step by step instructions. I've done it, but I don't recall the exact steps. If you hit a hard spot in the path, post again and we'll go from there. Otherwise, just wait for Richard D. to show up - he's a wizard at this stuff.

Search on the web, there's lots of advice. At home I have my fiancee's computer hooked up to mine with one simple "cross-over" network cable. Cheap and easy. And with Internet Connection Sharing (which you enable in the network properties) we share her DSL internet connection. Sweet.

A hub/switch is a good solution, and quite cheap. Be sure that all of the client hosts are assigned to the same workgroup and all should work out nicely.
I've gone to find myself. If I should get back before I return, please keep me here.

Right!
The first time I tried setting up a peer-to-peer net, using only the instructions in the Win95 Resource Kit, it was an exercise in frustration. But once you get one working, it's actually rather hard to screw up from then on. If you're really lazy, have all older versions of Windows, and don't need routing or Internet sharing, you can skip all the hard parts and use NetBEUI instead of TCP/IP. There's nothing at all to configure then.

Services run as the local SYSTEM user on a computer. So when you want to access a remote file you must login as a valid user on the remote computer.

Hi all,
I am sending this mail to this group as sending question to CVS mailing group needs subscription and I don't have time just now.
I hope someone can answer my question:
The question is as follow:
I have winXP and I want to install winCVS. Efter searching I find the following site:
http://www.cvsnt.org/
From where I downloaded Windows install (.exe) (2,685KB)
and installed it.
Efter installing I get a catalogue cvsnt as C:/program/cvsnt
and there is an cvs.exe file, when I click on this file nothing happens.
Why i don't get WinCVS running, am I missing something?
thanks for help
regards

Yes. cvs.exe is the command-line CVS client. The name of the GUI used to be wincvs.exe. If that won't fly, just grab the src tarball and compile it yourself.
Not that I see what this question has to do in this forum

My companies internet interviewing system has been receiving some unusual complaints in the past couple of days. Some users are reporting that they are getting an error message like this:
569 No Data
This Web page could not be opened with the specified browser request. Please try again later.
I have not been able to find any information on this message so I am at a total loss as to what the problem is.
I suspect our router is the problem but I cannot verify it.
Does anyone out there have any knowledge of this error, what it means, what causes it, how to fix it?
Thanks,
Matt Gullett

My company works through AOL and SPSS to bring people to take our surveys. The problems were being reported to AOL and AOL was not gathering enough information to do anything about it.
It turned out to be a problem on AOLs end, but it was a very stressful day anyway.
Thanks for the reply.

My notebook is a member of our NT4 domain in the coorp. network. While working in the office everything is fine, using fileservers, exchange and so on.
However, when I am trying to connect to the corp.network via RAS, or even VPN during the last days, I have problems to connect to those servers. When working offline I still use my domain-account, and with the cached profile I -hope- I should be able to access all servers, as described above, using the Username and password of the cached profile. (This worked perfectly for me in NT40 and W2K). However using the same procedure in XP I always have to enter uname + pwd to connect to a file-server or exchange-server.
It is annoying, always to reenter those informations. Is there a chance to make it work as it was using NT4 and W2K? Change Reg-Settings or so?
Thanks in advance

My Application is using NetDDE and runs good on Windows NT. But it doesn't run under Windows 2000. I used DDEshare.exe to create all the shares and gave them a trusted status.
DDESpy results: the first Task is a Callback. Differences:
Type = Unregister (Win 2000)
Type = Register (Win NT)
How can I make the type go Register?
Server on NT is programmed in Borland c++; I would be glad not to touch this sources.
Client on W2K will be programmed in VB, but see the Problems.
I know that NetDDE is out, but I don't want to change all the code.
Any idea? Thanks in advance.

We have a NT service which listens to a TCP port. And we also have a client that connects to this TCP port for the service to perform some data processing and return the result.
So far, this service has worked perfectly. Except that when the service is with load balancing (Load balancing that comes with Win2K Adv Svr). When there is more than one service running in the load balance, the client generates a "Cannot connect to the server" error message. This does not happen when only one service is running (even in with load balancing).
Any idea of where to look to figure out what the problem might be?

You might start here[^]. It seems to do rather a lot of different chores, though I also wonder why it thinks it needs to access the Internet, and why others are attempting to play with it.

I have a client that has 7 Win2K Pro hosts connected as Peer-to-Peer, with 6 of them in use as data entry stations feeding the 7th host (I'll call it the Master, since it's not really a Server). Everything works fine, except for poor speed on two hosts (a cable problem, along with some minor config issues), so there's nothing really wrong. But while looking into it I noticed that from any data entry station it is possible to view all 6 such hosts, but the Master is not visible. From the Master, all 7 hosts are visible.
In every system I've seen or used if all hosts are configured properly, they all appear in My Network Places. Somehow, whoever it was that set this up managed to hide the Master from the rest, a slick trick in this case. I know it's not a foolproof security measure, but given the lack of computer skills of the data entry operators it is probably quite adequate. Monkey no-see, monkey no-do. How is this stunt accomplished? I can see a lot of practical uses for it in small office environments.

Maybe the Master is not part of a domain.
