Network user access

Rudyatek

I have a Win98 system connected via ethernet to my main Win2k system, and I'm trying to find a way to give the other computer read-only access to my system's files. I enabled sharing for all my drives, and set the permissions to read-only (denying write and full access).

System Requirements for NT4 Server?

thomas@nordichardware.com

Hi! I'm about to set up a small server at home, with a slow comp, a Pentium 75 with about 32 MBs of RAM. I wonder what would be wisest, Win 95, NT or 98? The tasks it'll do: FTP-server (at most 2 concurrent users) Firewall Running the agent - If enough power's avaiable.

When I was running under Win98SE, browsing my friends' computers over Network Neighborhood was quick and painless.

Here's a good way to screw up your system.

Brian Frank

If you dont want to reinstall Win2k or any version of Windows more than you have to, DO NOT INSTALL NORTON UTILITIES!!! If you do, dont run anything other than speed disk. Thats it. Win Doctor and System Doctor will screw up things because many of the fixes involve deleting registry entries as the first and sometim ...

High Heat 2002 in Win2k

ahearnb

Hi, after talking to my high heat buddies at the message board, I have concluded that most everyone can run the game in Win2k, but not without some serious sound problems (skipping, looping, etc. ). They all had a soundblaster live card, and the latest drivers for all.
