I've got a workgroup of win 2k, win xp, and win 98 workstations and one win2k server in the mix. The problem has to do with browsing. The computers are all able to ping each other by name, but they do not all see one another in my network places (network neighborhood). Some computers see...

Hi, I have what seems to be a couple of major problems with my sms site. SMS was previously installed on a Windows 2000 server that also functioned as a domain controller. We needed to uninstall active directory on that server in order to bring it up as a new child domain within another tree...

Hi, I have set up two windows 2000 domain controllers to also function as dns servers. I thought the procedure for setting them up was fairly straightforward, but they don't work properly. I first discovered that I had a problem when a colleague said that the nslookup utility didn't work...

I need to be able to transfer files via ftp to a win2k professional machine. Sorry about the basic question, but how do you install the ftp service on win2k pro so that I can accomplish this?

Help! I am a total newbie to SMS and have just been asked to get it to do things I know nothing about! I haven't even got a book on the subject and have no idea where to begin. The good news is that I seem to have successfully installed SMS 2.0 on our win2k server and we have a very specific...
