Hello all! This might be a dumb question: We want to add a networkable printer to another room (2 down from the server). Can I just use a hub and split the ethernet connection we have already in that room OR do I have to run a whole other cable into that room? What are the...

I'm always afraid I am asking a stupid question, but here goes: How do I edit the login script in XP? I want my PC to have the following code in the login script: net use lpt1 \\ServerName\PrintQueue1 net use lpt2 \\ServerName\PrintQueue2 (I want to do this with 3 PC's on our network, because...

Hello all!!! I have problems with capturing a port for DOS-based program printing. I have a FoxPro program based on DOS which printed out fine on Windows 98, but prints out in a different size on Windows XP. In 98, there is an option to capture a printer port (like LPT1) for DOS programs, but...

Anyone out there have Windows XP? I am having problems because I have FoxPro 2.5 for DOS and a Windows XP computer. How do I capture a port on the LPT1 for a DOS print job on the XP? There are no options to do this like there were with Windows 98! I also heard that the capture command doesn't...

Hi All!!! This may be a dumb question but: Is there an equivalent of "salvage" in NetWare 6? When we had NetWare 4.11, we had a utility called "salvage", I don't think it is working with the NetWare 6. Is there a silimar utility for NetWare 6? Thanks

Hello all! I am trying to learn to program FoxPro 2.5. I don't know where to begin. I currently am the network administrator for a NetWare server based network (Win 98/XP workstations) and they expect me to also troubleshoot their proprietary FoxPro codes. I have programmed in C++ before but...

SSWNET: Thank you for your input. That really gave me a good 2nd opinion. We have need for only about 5 GB of data running at about 1.1 GHz. What is the difference between a SDLT and a DLT? Thank you again. PixiePoet

Sky14657: Thank you for your reply! We have about 3 GB of data (it's a small 8 person office) at 1.1 GHz. I need to get a better storage system and there's so much out there!!! Thank you in advance!
