Thanks bcastner for your valuable post. Inputting ACSII character never worked, but then I copied and pasted the hex value and it worked. Now my only prob is I can't get internet. I can browse our local network, but can't ping outside IPs?? Can you give my any pointers? Thanks, Dan

mrfixit, it took me a little bit to find the reg key, is this where you were talking about?: HKLM/Software/Microsoft/Windows NT/CurrentVersion/SeCEdit/Reg Values/Machine/System/CurrentControlSet/Control/Lsa/RestrictAnonymous There are two Reg_SZ entries, and two REG_DWORD entries. The two...

Does anyone know why, when I type \\hompc23\c$, i get a dialog box to enter the username for the Guest account. I have no option to enter any other username. In the username field, hompc23\Guest is suppressed and shaded out so I can't enter my username, or any other for that matter. Do I...

"Better hurry, as Retail and OEM sales of Win2k OEM end at the end of next month. Note that your Win2k and XP clients will only accept 10 network connections, unlike Win98, so keep your "Server" computers Win98." -when you say 10 network connections, do you mean...

FYI we have approx. 35 cpus in one workgroup and use a watchguard firebox as our firewall/vpn gateway (works great I might add). 5 xp pro, 6 win2k pro, and about 24 98SEs. The 98's will soon be win2k in a couple months hopefully. I am also thinking of creating separate workgroups (i.e...

all of our cpus here are statically assigned, starting at 192.168.4.100. DHCP is enabled and starts assigning IPs at 192.168.4.50 - .99. about the lmhosts file, I do have one and the only entry it has in it is our exchange server which is on a different subnet (192.168.10.x) via vpn. about...

does anyone know how to add a "computer description" for windows 2000 pro clients? I know for xp, you can right click on my computer, go to properties and select the "computer name" tab and there's a field for "computer description". We have a simple workgroup...

right before i started this thread, i was using windows 2000 pro and it was working perfect, then i switched to xp pro and it started delaying, until i deleted the two reg keys bcastner supplied. a week later and its back to sloooowwwwwww >:-(

bcastner, do you know why it would start being slow again? I checked to see if the two reg keys were back, but they weren't. Any ideas anyone?

Hello, I have a Laserjet 5si with built-in 4MB of RAM. Whenever I print large files, it warms up, prints one page then stops, warms up, and prints the second, warms up, prints 3rd, etc, etc. This seems to only happen when I print off the internet. I tried printing a word doc that was 5MB and...

hello, I have two questions. 1) At home I connect to my work cpu via vpn. (both cpus involved in tunnel are xp pro) I then map H: to \\hompc01\c$ and it works. How come I can't browse into my profile in the "Documents and Settings" folder? I can browse anywhere else but there. I...

unless their boss knew about it and didn't care...

Thanks bcastner! Would you mind telling me what that did? Thanks again.

Does anyone know why it would take up to 30 seconds, sometimes almost a minute, just to display my workgroup? Would it go quicker if I added everyone's computer to my hosts file. It seems like there should be an easier way to do this. I'm running XP pro, and the rest of the cpus on the...

can someone give me a quick explanation of the differences between the sharing tab, and the security tab? I took off simple file sharing on xp pro and am having trouble accessing some shares. Does the user you want to give access to a share have to be in the sharing tab (under permissions) and...
