Would you like that in Visio and/or Powerpoint?  How did you get a hold of a Windows 2003 server without knowing anything about DNS server configuration and simple networking technology. How many router do you have? Most importantly do you have licenses for all these goodies?

u could great a network if both machines have network cards and booth running windows xp and u would just need a crossover cable. \nand below is the guide.\nhttp://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/using/networking/default.mspx\n\nor if the main pc has a dvd writer u can burn it all to 1 dvd disk\nor use the pen drive between.

What's your internet connection?  An ethernet cable from a dsl modem to your machine or something similar?  \n\nIf so, run your internet connection directly into a router or switch and use that to feed all the computers in this node. \nOtherwise, if  your computer must be used to connect to the internet, install a second NIC [network interface card] in your machine and connect that to either a router or switch.  Then run the network wizard and set your machine as the one connected directly to the internet.  This turns on ICS [internet connection sharing].

you need a router\nsetup your router and your laptop should be able to connect to the internet\nconnect the other computer to the network through wire or wireless lan card.\ngo on each computer and go to my network places, on the side click on set up a home or small office network. follow the instructions

Are they all in the same workgroup?  Check out  http://www.practicallynetworked.com/sharing/xp/addxp.htm\nhttp://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/using/networking/learnmore/russel_02april08.mspx\nBasic Checklist for Networking\n1. Ensure that all firewalls are disabled for all computers involved.\n2. Ensure that all computers on the network are in the same workgroup.\n3. Ensure each computer has "file and printer sharing" installed.\n4. Ensure that you have 'File Sharing' enabled - to do this, right-click on any Drive/Folder/File on one (or all) of the other computers, and select 'Sharing and Security...'. Ensure that 'Share this folder on the Network' is enabled.

Never heard of that, but it would probably be easier to get a network hub and set up a network.\n\nThat would allow sharing of a printer (as well as internet connection, and a lot of other things).

Pick up a router.  If you don't want to run cables, you can pick up a wireless router and a wireless network card from most electronics stores.  Run an ethernet cable from the DSL modem to the router's WAN port, and then the router will share the connection with all machines attached to it.  If you have any questions on setup or equipment choices, feel free to email me...\n\nYou could do Internet Connection Sharing in Windows XP, but that would require a different setup... let me know what you're more interested in doing... either way you'll have to have some networking equipment so that you can connect the two machines...\n\nLater!

You need a wireless dsl router and a wifi card for each of your computers!

use a router.  Plug the cable modem into the back of the router where it says "Internet" and each individual computer where it has ports for the CPUs.

get two wires with which you can connect both the Pc's to the hub/switch.a CAT 5 cable \nbasically both of these wires should have rj-45 jacks on both sides.\n\njust plug in these wires into your pc and the hub\n\nfor the win98 PC:\nonce done go to start->settings-> control panel->network and dial up connections\n\nfor the winXP PC:\nright click on 'My Network Places' >> select 'Properties' >> select & right click on 'Local Area Connection' >> select on 'Properties'...now you have the Network Properties window open, select the item that says 'Internet Protocol (TCP/IP)' \n\n\nright click on the connection that is showing up as active and go to the tcp/ip properties and give an ip address on one system(windows XP) as 10.10.1.1 and subnet mask as 255.255.255.0 leave the gateway as blank and on the other system(win98) give the ip addres as 10.10.1.2 and subnet mask 255.255.255.0\n\nreminder: the workgroup names must also be the same !!\n\nthat should make it work

It's easy.\n\nRun one ethernet cable from the DSL to the WAN port on the router.\n\nRun one cable from one of the 4 ports on the router to the PC.\n\nYou can either then run another cable from other 4 ports on the router to the laptop or you can set up the wireless. (if your laptop supports it)\n\nThen, just read the manual for the router on how to configure it.

first, consider using a wireless router with your dsl modem. then put a card or adapter in your laptop.\n\nThe issue with your laptop is software or settings... basically the same.\n\nif you are a total novice i suggest calling either your isp or your router's company to get setup instructions.\n\nyour laptop and modem and router need to recogize each other so they can "talk".\n\nyour HOME Network can have endless PC and/or Macs attached at the same time.... you just need to set up each one\n\napparently you either dont' have plug and play or you have a security backup.

There are two solutions that you can choose from:\n\n1.  Port the printer to a desktop that is on your network and then share the printer.\n\n2.  Purchase a wireless print server... I've seen some available at Wal-Mart and Best Buy...

The simplest way to do that would be to physically connect the printer to one of the computers and share the printer so the other computers can print through that printer.\n\nAlternatively, if you don't want to connect any one computer to the printer, you can get a JetDirect print server. The 1200n comes with JetDirect already, though I don't think it is wireless. In any event, HP sells wireless JetDirect servers which would work with your printer.

Yes it is possible.  If you are using a windows network, the   configuration is almost identical to that of having 2 wired computers. \n\n1. Configure all computers on the network to have the same workgroup\n\n2. Enable file and printer sharing on both systems\n\nThe configuration all depends on which operating system you are running.
