amdphr3@kXP

welcome back

They are playing god, and cannot possibly predict the negative impacts that will result from this, and by that time, it will be too late....

Personally, if you are not running win2k3 as a server, just as a workstation, I would recommend that you just run xp pro instead. As Win2k3 is a server, I would not expect any graphics card vendors or multimedia developers to develop any new drivers for their cards, or in the case of multimedia developers, any new multimedia apps for this os as it is intended to be run as a server. However, if you are intending to run it as a server as well then go ahead. It basically XP pro server, nice and stable and just like windows xp with the added server features. But i would strongly advise against running it on a machine with less than 256 Mb ram if you intend to play games as well as run it as a server, It is very resource hungry

welcome to MSFN

LOL i was thinkin the same thing

omfg, jesus thats bad

If they got the money, an OC194 connection! . Nice download speed!

happy b'day crispy! I'm late, but i thought i better say it neway

welcome to MSFN dude, from newcastle, new south wales!

what protocol are you using for the network? Is file and printer sharing enabled, and is netbios enabled in TCP/IP if you are using it?

umm you might want to remove that b4 u get in twuble

i couldn't be bothered writing a heap of php scripts so i opted for a portal system for mine, very lazy i know but hey, will look alot better when i get the thing working

hehe yeh telstra sux as well. Also, it sux cuz broadband is so expensive here, i wish i could afford it, its like at least 120 a month for unlimited 512/128 dsl here

Some people like to do it for some wierd way to drag attention to themselves. To be honest, i hope this kinda situation does not arise again, as material like this is not suitable for younger people, and it most probably will discourage our ladie population from coming here, I think it is time to get tough with this kind of behaviour. Don't get me wrong, you guys do a great job and i know you cant police everything, but I think we need to crack down on this kind of content as it is damaging to MSFN's image

What speed are your Network cards? If they are 10/100Mbit, and you only want the two pc's on the network, I would suggest investing in a cat5e crossover cable. You can purchase these from any computer or electronics store. However, if you later decide that you will want more than 2 pc's on the network, you will require a hub or switch, and regular cat5e patch cables. Once again, you can get these from your local computer or electronics store. The next part, configuring your network in software. Im assuming that you will want to share an internet connection? If so, you will need to use TCP/IP protocol on both machines. This will require you to go into your network properties window and selecting the tcp/ip protocol that is bound to your network card. Click on this protocol and click the properties button. In the IP address box, i would recommend using a basic IP address such as 100.0.0.1 for one machine, and a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0. These are typed into the corresponding boxes. Now you need to configure the other pc. You need to go into your network properties window again, click the tcp/ip protocol that is bound to the network card that you are using, and click properties. For the IP address on the second machine, use 100.0.0.2, and a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0. To use the net on the machine that doesn't have a physical connection i.e dsl/dial up, you will need to configure your browser in the internet options for IE. Click the connections tab, click the lan settings button, and click the check box labelled use a proxy server. For the address, type in the ip address of the internet enabled pc, i.e 100.0.0.1, or 100.0.0.2, depending on what pc your net is connected to. In the port box, type 80. Well hope ive given ya the guideance you were after, i tried to explain it as best as i could in a post. Good luck

yeah but does that apply to moderators or people who have been on these forums for ages? The mods/admins/news posters work very hard to get where they are, and i believe they do not wish to lose their priveliges, so i can see no reason why they would risk this position to post such content

I believe xperties is referring to the avatars and sigs that he posted asking aaronxp if they would be appropriate, and also his pictures of the "weapons" that he purchased. I don't believe these conform to MSFN rules.

yeh have fun

i believe that's the supra at the finish, too fast 4 the evo ()wn3d!

dont think so, check windows update for info, but im pretty sure there's no sp 4 win2k3 yet

welcome to MSFN, enjoy your stay

welcome to MSFN, enjoy ur stay!

nice work c-girl

LOL hahhahahaha thats tops

Hackers are useful in a way...they show network administrators where their security is weak so they can patch the holes. I have personally engaged in harmless hacking in order to help system administrators find security holes. It's when they destroy valuable data/information that hackers cross the line, for example all the script kiddies are out to prove that they can gain access to systems, and to have some fun while they're at it destroying networks. A true hacker would only use their skills to prove that a system is insecure and to show where security needs to be improved.
