Our nonprofit has a Server 2003 based network running AD, with about 50 workstations running WinXP. We'll finally be adding Win7 workstations, so I need to upgade one of the servers so I can administer Group Policy on the new workstations. Our servers are all 32-bit, so they won't run Server...

We're a non-profit with a Windows AD network with a single DC. The DC machine is now also the primary fileserver. We need to add a server to act as primary file server to get the data files off of the DC. I've been considering a NAS box, but after reading some things about them I'm concerned...
Windows 2000 Server DC (Active Directory) with about 40 workstations, mixed Win2K and WinXP. When browsing the network, the DC doesn't show up. I can ping the DC, either by name or IP address, and I can map a drive to the DC. As far as I can see, everything is set up correctly for DNS and...

We're looking at adding a NAS appliance to increase our storage capacity. I have no experience with NAS and want to make sure that it will meet our needs before spending any money. Does anyone know of a good basic discussion of NAS that would give me an introduction and possibly point me...

Our network has a Linksys RV042 router linking to the Internet through a DSL modem in bridged mode. The network uses the 192.168.0.X IP range (the router is 192.168.0.1). For security reasons, I need to have 4 of the computers not be accessible from the other computers on the network...

Is there any program out there that will test the maximum memory that a computer can take? SANDRA used to do this as I recall, but the newer versions don't seem to have that capacity. Thanks.
We're looking at getting a Linksys RV402 to act as a router and VPN endpoint. Our network has a Win2000 AD domain. If we get the RV042 and use Linksys QuickVPN, will we need any additonal client software for remote computers using Win2000 or WinXP? We're a non-profit with a tight budget, so...
