Har noen maskiner hjemme som jeg ønsker å knytte opp mot hverandre i
et lokalt nettverk/intranett. Dvs at jeg ønsker en av maskinene skal
fungere som en server hvor feks Office pakken er installert (maskin 1).

Den som logger seg på maskin 2 med brukernavn og passord skal da kunne

logge seg på excel feks på maskin 1 for så å lagre dette dokumentet

enten lokalt på serveren eller på sin egen maskin samt printe dette
ut.

Ønsker og å ha en meny eller lignende med forskjellige programmer som

kan brukes. Men for å komme inn på denne menyen må det da tastes inn

brukernavn og passord. Noe lignende sikkert en del firmaer bruker....


tar imot råd/hjelp etc etc.


Have several computers at home which I want to connect to each other in
a local network. This mean I want to use my stationary computer as a
server (computer 1) where I have Office and such installed. Then I want
the other computers to log onto computer 1 with their own password and
username and have the option of saving their documents either on the
server or on their own computer and also to print it out.

I also want a menu or such on computer 1 with all the programes which
the others can use. But they need a password and username. Very
similar to what companies uses.

Any help appreciated!

Basics:
Set up a workgroup, set up file shares on the 'server', create user accounts
on the 'clients' and add shortcuts to the shared server folders on the
desktop (or map drives). You can also redirect My Documents to
\\server\share\folder for each user if you wish. Share the printer from the
'server' and connect the clients to it.

If you need more help with that, check out www.wown.com and
www.practicallynetworked.com and get your hands on some good small/home
office network books - you should find many.

Re menu - well, the only programs the users can use will likely be those on
the 'client' computer they are sitting at, unless you have applications
installed on the 'server' that are *designed* to run over the network. If
you have a retail copy of Office *and* you have a license for each
user/computer, you can install it to the server using setup.exe /a to do an
'admin install' to there. You can then configure yoursubsequent client
installations that the files will be accessed across the network. However, I
would not recommend this at all. There's no value in it, and you really lose
functionality. I'd say that most companies do not use application servers
like this.

So, the regular Start Menu is really all that's relevant here - and that's
unrelated to the computers being on a network at all.
