TO whoever can help with networks.
I just now recieved my Hub and Rj-45 cable. I have succesfully
hooked up the two computers. The hub can hold up to 4 computers but I only
have 2. The hub and one of the networking cards is made by 3com. The other
"which i think is holding me back is in a slower computer and is made by
Accton. The 3 com is a Xl pci combo that has everything, and is connected
to a dell 333 with 128 ram and running windows 98. The accton is a smaller
nmetworking card that only supports rj-45 and is on a 486-dx2 with 32 ram
and windows 95.
I think the problem is I don't know what I am doing! when i read the
3com book it said in the network settings which are in the control panel, it
says to delete Client for Microsoft networks and i did and it says to put
Client for netware networks. i did that. When i go into that it asks me
what i want for the prefferred server? I dunno what that is. Then it says
first network drive again i don't know what that is.
If someone could start me off what I eventually wanna do is make it so i can
play ipx games back and forth. Share files/internet/printer.
Thank you
