We are using the Mac version of Sharity to allow several Mac 9 clients to talk to an NT4 file server on a different subnet.I'm sure you mean Mac OS X, not 9. Sharity does not run on the old Mac OS.
The university supporting the network infrastructure shut off the ports these devices use as a result of the SQL Slammer worm because they were displaying DHCP principles.I'm not sure I understand this last sentence. Which ports have been blocked? And why is this related to DHCP?
It depends on HOW related. Sharity does not use DHCP at all, but it uses broadcasts. DHCP is based on broadcasts, too.Does Sharity use any technologies related to DHCP?
If so, is there any workaround to shut that part of the Sharity program down while retaining the ability to cross subnets and allow these two devices to talk to one another?� Thanks.� MikeSharity uses broadcasts in the same way as Windows computers to find network resources. This conforms to the CIFS quasi-standard and has nothing to do with DCHP.
