nitroshift Posted May 3, 2006 Share Posted May 3, 2006 basically you don't need to enable any of file and printer shares. under tcp/ip of their tan connection specify the ip address of the router (gateway) and the dns from your isp. done! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ctwizzy Posted May 8, 2006 Share Posted May 8, 2006 He wants file sharing and printer sharing on the seperate divisions though I think.What you should do is configure the router with 2 subnets, one for each department. Configure the subs to allow file/printer sharing amongst themselves and all traffic will pass through the main router. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eyeball Posted May 8, 2006 Share Posted May 8, 2006 as ctwizzy says, stick a router in the middle and put the 2 networks on different subnets, or if you want both departments to share a single server, then make it a multihomed server by installing multiple NIC's and do the same thing with the subnetting (different ip range on each NIC) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
