okay, let me update my ethernet interfaces, correct me if I setup wrong. Xserve Leopard Ethernet 1 Configure Manually IP Address: 10.xx.xxx.xxx (I put my static IP provided by my ISP here, am I right?) Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0 Router 192.168.1.1 (I used my modem's default IP, am I right...

Okay, let me quickly give you a sketch here. I have 6 dynamic IPs and 1 static IP provided by my ISP. My modem is connected to a D-link switch on the 1F. The switch has a link to the 2F where my Xserve (WAN en0) is located. I have to put it on the 2F. All my iMacs and PCs are on the 1F, also...

Hi, every expert I have a Xserve (Leopard Server) that can give DHCP to my Macs but at the same time, I also use a PPPoE modem that gives 6 dynamic IPs + 1 static IP. So I wonder if I could use DHCP and PPPoE at the same time? As far as I test, DHCP is way slower in terms of internet...

Hi, everyone, I have a network problem. My systems are Leopards connected with XPs. I have dynamic IP ADSL. The problem is this: when I am connected with XPs while my Leopard is not connected to the internet, then we know XP and Leopard are internally connected with the 192.168.1.xx IP. They...

My Network setup is run in Shared networking mode rather than Host-only networking mode. I run iMac with Parallel Desktop instead of VMWare. System is Leopard and I have administrator priviledge, and my virtual XP is also in administrator. thanks!

Hi, I am curious that if you get _desktop.ini under each directory of your hard drive (a USB external hard drive, for instance)? I think I got those files becuase I am connecting to Windows XP and when I share files with Windows, I automatically get those uesless files. And they are kind of...

Hi, everyone, I am having troubles to log in my msn account under Parallel Desktop (Windows XP). Should I adjust any network setup so that it can work? Many thanks~

Hi, everyone, My desktop folders is cluttering. The Spaces functionality in Leopard is quite handy and I wonder is it possible to switch desktop instead of switching all program windows. I found a good software does the job called "You Control: desktops" but it seems to function smoothly...

Yes, that's how I did it. The Sun provides a link to the Apple's web page but after teh installation somehow I still could not see the java applet under Firefox and Safari browser.

Hi, I don't know if any of you have noticed that the last release of firefox 3 for Mac has a printing bug. After I print a page or pdf, then the printing button simply hangs there. Unless I switch to other window and then switch back to firefox only then can I print a new page or pdf again. Any...

Hi, recently I have installed Sun Microsystems Java Runtime Environment (JRE) for my Mac (Leopard). Though it shows successful installation, my java applet simply will not work under Firefox and Safari. I have checked out the browsers' preference setup and the java boxes are checked. I just...

Thank you guys, it works fine now!

The two Macs are running Leopard and I have credentials as administrators to both computers in my house. But is it really possible to access, say, Mac01 to Mac02 by simply typing Mac02's password in Mac01?? Since I want to share some documents under Users directory in Mac01 with Mac02...

Hi, I have two mac connected. I can share files easily by adjusting the Share under the preference but what if I have a folder that is under the directory of Document or Home? I cannot see them under my network even when I added it under the Share preference? I believe it has something to do...
