Hi,
I've been trying to search for a solution to my problem.
We have a small home office setup, with windows 2000 server installed on the
server, and windows XP on the clients.
We have a linksys firewall, which also serves as our DHCP server. We are
not configured as a domain, but only as Workgroups.
When we still did not have our broadband connection, I was able to set-up
the network and printers and map network drives. I used the firewall also as
the DHCP server. Everything seemed to work fine. I was able to install from
the server (which only acts as a file server), the printers all have their
own network cards, so I just had to install drivers from the server if
necessary.
However, lately I am unable to access the workgroup computers; though i can
still access the mapped network drives. I am not sure if it is related, but
i noticed it only after the Static IP addresses, DNS, gateway, were
configured into the firewall.
If I am not clear, I am more that happy to try to explain how our network is
set-up.
Thanks so much in advance
