A Workstation/ Server Connection -a Nightmare by AfricaFace(f): 10:01am On Nov 10, 2006 |
I ma not a network Guru , but IT SUPPORT/ODBA, but my job responsibilty suddenly involved networking . i am using win 2003 server for my sever Os, AND WIN XP AS THE OS FOR THE WORKSTATIONS, THE SPEED OF THE NETWORK IS 10MBPS AND THE BANDWIDTH IS 2. I JUST ADDED 4 WORSTATION TO THE DOMAIN/NETWORK , BUT I REALSIED THAT ONE OF THE WORSTATIONS TAKES AGES TO CONNECT TO THE SERVER, WHENEVER I WANT TO ACCESS ANY SHARED FOLDER ON THE ON THE SERVER, THE WORKSTATION TAKES A LONG TIME TO GET IT AND MIGHT FINALLY NOT, RECENTLY I WANTED TO INSTALL ADOBE ACROBAT ON THE SYSTEM BUT THE EXEC FILE IS IN THE SERVER , RUNNING THE APPS FROM THE SERVER WAS A NIGHTMARE, AFTERALL I COPIED THE EXEC FILE TO THE COMPUTER WT A PEN DRIVE TO RUN IT. MY BOSS IS ON MY NECK TO GET THIS JOB DONE, HOW DO I MAKE THIS WORKSTATION AS FAST AS OTHERS, IS THERE ANYTHING I AM NOT DOING WELL OR THAT I NEED TO DO. BESIDES I AM USING AUTO IP ADDRESSING |

Maybe your DHCP isn't set up properly on your server, also I want to assume that the server has 2 network cards? If that is the case, then on the one which connects to the network in question, assign the following IP: 192.168.1.1,255.255.255.0 After that, give all the clients IPs in that network, making their default gateway the IP of the server. You shouldn't have problems after that. |
