Some of the folders are set to everyone and still are not seen. It's like if you're outside the domain it does not even exist, you can't even view it through Microsoft Windows Network or find computers inside the domain via IP address. I need the entire domain to be available, because the...

I'm having a problem with my windows 2000 server domain. I recently reinstalled Win 2K server to fix a lot of security holes that were present from the administrator before me. Everything went smoothly, except now laptops outside the domain cannot get in (including mine, but I can cheat by...

It's deleted, and I still can't enable fowarding, for the same reason.

I cannot enable forwardsers, when I go to the forwarders tab, the enable forwarders tab is greyed out and it tells me that "forwarders are not available because this is a root server.

I was able to fix the slow logins that windows XP computers experienced by pointing all the XP workstations to the IP where the Windows 2000 server is located. However, even though all the XP workstations log in users quickly, there is no internet access on any of the workstations. How do I...

OKay, nothing I've tried is bearing any fruit, and things have actually gotten worse. The server went down completely, and now nobody can get on the internet. So maybe I should start from scratch... So here's the scenario. 1. The Win 2k server computer has two network cards installed...

Hmm, a problem. And I'm not even paststep 1 yet. I checked for DNS, and it says it's installed. So I went to install the zone, and the server computer has a big red X through it and when I click on it it says that it cannot contact the DNS server.

To answer the question for #4, it's a Win2k server with two network cards installed. One card is set to the settings you see under Ethernet Adaptor WAN, and the other card is set to obtain settings autmatically, the settings you see under Ethernet adaptor LAN. Both cards are connected to the...

Oops, forgot one thing. In #4, which card from the config at the beginning of the post is the external NIC?

Okay, now I think I've got a game plan :). I just have a few questions, as I'm not used to using win2k server, so I'll ask them numerically as I go through each point. 1.) There's only one server on the local network, the others are all workstations running XP Pro, so I'm guessing I'm right...

Okay, I've gotten quite a few good ideas on where to go from here, could someone give me an idea of where to start? I don't want to loose track of what I'm doing and mess things up even more, so it it help if someone could outline how I should go about trying to correct my problem.

To answer both questions since the last post, our internet is cable. It's in a building, and each room has it's own static IP address it needs to get internet access. The router that controls my entire network needs to be set up with that static IP address to give net access to the computers...

I tried pointing the DNS on one of the workstations to 192.168.1.100, and the instant I did that, the internet on the workstation stopped working. Might it have something to do with the fact that the router is what's controlling the DHCP?

The 192.168.1.100 address is assigned by the router. The server and all the workstations are connected to the same router. The server computer has two network cards, one is set to obtain IP and DNS automatically, and one is set to the settings listed above under "Ethernet Adaptor WAN." I'm...

Two questions, how do I go about pointing the DNS, and how do I check things like queries forwarding?
