Hello everyone,
I am trying to set up a wired server based network in my home. This server
will not have internet capability but will basicallly be used by my family to
play games over a LAN. The server computer will be a desk top running XP Pro
and the other computers will be laptops running either XP pro or XP home and
will be wired into the desk top. I have a router and a switch along with
Windows server 2003 if needed. How do I go about setting this up? Any help
will be greatly appreciated.
