Hi Everyone..., Anyone got an answer to this? It seems to be an asked but unanswered question on many of the tech sites I have looked at with Google - and not even D-Link answers it for me... Thanks, Bruce

Hi All, My name is Bruce Code (errr...) and I'm a 32 year old Aussie. I work for Atomic Design Studio Pty Ltd as a web designer (and occasional sys admin :S). Not much else interesting to say really... Regards, Bruce

Hi Steve, I can't guarantee this to be correct in you case, but for my SATA/Install, I had to press F6 to add the SATA drivers at install time regardless of whether I used the RAID aspect of it or not. My RAID is controlled by the BIOS, but I have to install SATA drivers at install for 2000 to even see the drive(s), let alone install. HTH Regards, Bruce

Hi Everyone, I'm having difficulty conveying and understanding what's what. As is often the case in small businesses, I'm actually a web designer, but have been required to put on the 'System Administrator' hat for a bit... From the wall we have: 1) The D-Link Modem. This has internet, is 10.1.1.1 and has NAT activated. 2) The D-Link Wireless Router. This has internet and has two IPs associated with it - 10.1.1.15 and 192.168.0.1. The router has DHCP enabled and has wireless to the only laptop on our network, and wired to the server. 3) The Windows 2000 Advanced Server. This has internet, has THREE NICs - a RealTek 10/100 card assigned IP 192.168.0.105 by the router, a SiS 10/100 card manually assigned 10.1.1.8 and a NetGear 1000 card manually assigned 10.1.1.9. NICs: a ) Realtek - IP (auto - 192.168.0.105); SN (auto - 255.255.255.0); DG (auto - 192.168.0.1); DNS1 (man - 192.168.0.1); DNS2 (man - 203.2.75.132) b ) SiS - IP (man - 10.1.1.8); SN (auto - 255.0.0.0); DG (blank); DNS1 (man - 10.1.1.9); DNS2 (man - 10.1.1.8) c ) NetGear - IP (man - 10.1.1.9); SN (auto - 255.0.0.0); DG (blank); DNS1 (man - 10.1.1.9); DNS2 (man - 10.1.1.8) Routing and Remote Access is enabled with the RealTek card set as the source and also set to 'Public' under the NAT settings. The other two cards are set to 'Private' 4) Client PCs - IP (auto); SN (auto); DG (auto); DNS1 (man - 10.1.1.8); DNS2 (man - 10.1.1.9) 5) Laptop - The laptop has internet via the Wireless, but not via Wired. If I plug wired in so that I can access the server, no internet is available. If this huge lot doesn't help out, I can supply Server DNS & DCHP settings. Many thanks for your time, Bruce

Hi Klasika, Yes, I mean that the clients can no longer log into the Active Directory Domain. Whether it has to do with IP addresses or what, I'm not sure... What is 'multihomed'? With the settings you specify, I can't even get online from the Server... I'll keep looking into it and I'll try contacting DLink again. Thanks, Bruce

Hi, In my experience with this sort of stuff, you'll need to boot into Windows off the 40Gb ATA drive, add the device drivers for the SATA, then clone the drive. You should probably be right then. Normally when you are installing XP/2000 from CD, right at the start it asks you to press F6 to install addition SCSI/RAID drivers. This would usually be where you install the drivers for your SATA. I have, however, had success with adding the driver by the method I mention above. HTH Regards, Bruce

Hi Everyone, Windows XP Pro supposedly supports Firewire networking straight out of the box - at least Firewire appears as a Network card anyway. I've tried to network between Windows 2000 AS and my XP laptop since my laptop is only 10/100 LAN, whereas my network is Gigabit and Firewire is 400Mbit. I've added a four-port firewire card to the Server which deteced it fine. I've then added the cable from the server to the laptop. Now the Server is asking for drivers for 'Microsoft 1394 PC' and for 'Microsoft NIC1394'. Does anyone know where I can get these drivers (for W2K) from? Thanks, Bruce

Hi Everyone, We've had 2000 AS for some time, but are expanding and also adding in ADSL. Previously we had DNS and DHCP all set up and working nicely. Each client computer had their own modem and used the same, shared phone line. Now we have got ADSL on, and need to set up Routing, etc. Our system goes something like this... 1) DLink DSL-302G ADSL Modem 2) DLink DI-624+ Wireless Router 3) W2K Server via Realtek 8139 10/100 NIC 4) Out to network via NetGear Gigabit LAN and SiS 10/100 LAN cards - NAT is enabled on the Router - If we enable NAT on the Server, clients can no longer log into the Network - We have the three IP addresses of the NetGear, SiS and Router added into each client PCs DNS settings under TCP/IP There's probably more you need to know, so please ask away. Thanks, Bruce
