[info-tech] Help for a colleague

2005-06-22 Thread Steven Scarbrough
A guy I know just installed Microsoft Small Business Server 2003 and can't get 9 of 10 XP machines to connect. Any suggestions? We do mostly NetWare for PCs here - I've no idea where/how to begin helping other than to check the SP2 firewall settings on XP. Steve Scarbrough Technology

I work with Novell also, but have installed some smaller MS networks. I have had this problem before and was repaired by pointing the clients at the correct DNS server. The SBS installed should be set as the DNS server on the network and all clients pointing to it. Manson Northwest Webster-Home

It could be DNS but I think since one machine can connect that is probably not the case. I think that the machines may not have permissions to browse the share. I don't know much about small business server,but check your share permissons and make sure that everyone has full control and then

Sorry gang, I saw the 10 X and was thinking mac. Check to see the given ip of the workstation. If it wasn't able to obtain an network ip, it will take 169. You might have manually give it an ip, then once on the network change it over to DHCP. Just another thought... Murray Gafkjen
