Hai, I have done networking and active directory settings in w2000 but 2003 is new to me. I have installed one system with windows 2003 and others with windows xp. This w2003 system is going to be the server. My network is connected by a 3com wireless gateway which has its own dhcp server. So now the only thing I want to do is to configure this to be a file server, printer server and email server. Each system has it own shared folder, in windows 2003 I heard that there one new things called active folder sharer something which shares the files in other system with security cause I want some of the users not to use my files not even for viewing them. Second thing my printer is a xerox phaser 7300n which has its own dhcp service. So is it possible for me to make the w2003 server use a dhcp instead of making all those things use dhcp. And is it possible to share email in head office through vpn if they don't have a exchange server.But they have their own domain like mohsin@company.com . So anybody can help with this. Please , I know there are lot brainies out there in msfn forum, Please help me with this. Thanks
