Re: Unable to see Vista Shares

Yes I did the IP thing :). I had the router set to assign DHCP and disabled that so that the server provided both DNS and DHCP.

Unable to see Vista Shares

I have 2 systems hung on the hetwork, 1 being XP and the other Vista. I can see the shares on the XP box but for the life of me, I can see the Vista system but not the shares. I even added everyone (read and browse) to the shares but they still do not show up. I am lost for now.

Errors on Updates and Install thru Add/Remove

I installed the software per the instructions and that was very simple and easy to do after realizing what I did wrong the first time trying to install. I did a complete reinstall, and when it went out to do the updates, I received numerous errors about various files in the Packagekit\yum folder wit...

Another Dumb question

I am trying to install the server, and during the initial sequence of commands, which pass by extremely fast, I see it tying or loading things, but then at the end, my screen displays "no video" and the DVD finally quits spinning and it will just sit there. I am running a Gigabyte GA-MA74G...

I have been fighting it for weeks now and realize that I should have gone this route to begin with. My problem is this - I have already relocated files onto it and would not want to have to ...
