HI,\n    To setup a network you can do it with xp as well as with windows 2000,2003 with xp you can go for workgroup where each system works as a client and server so there is not much security using this . Better to go with windows 2000 or 2003 where one system will act as a server and all other system will act as client not necessary that all the system must have windows 2000 or 2003 only one is sufficient rest all can have xp operating system. Using this domain/client you can assign password to the user as per your convince .. To assign password follow this\n         \n       right click my computers --clk manage there you can find the option of  user and groups create your users and groups and assign them the password as per your requirements ,..each time a user tries to logon to the network then he need to give the password and user name without which he cant logon..using xp in all the system its not possible to create domain/client environment so go for the above suggested method.\ntry this you can make it dear

I'm going to guess that you have OS X.\n\nYou will want to use a Remote Desktop service.

The first and the foremost thing is to bring the PC's together on the same network. \n\nThen, you need to enable file and printer sharing on the PC's. \n\nThen you have to enable sharing of the specific folders.

Remote desktop connections are you crazy that is to take control of a pc on the network its like teminal server.  If you looking for a chat program for the network try skype its free and its everything your looking for.  The computers will have to have internet connection to use it just like them all.  If you have an exchange server 2k or higher you can install msn messenger and run it off the exchange but if you have your email hosted outside the company that is shot for you.

Yes you can but you don't share the hardware- you share the software. There is a program called VNC which allows you to connect to another PC on the network and take control of it, if it as though you were in front of it, very good piece of software.\nGo here for details- you can download a free limited copy:\nhttp://www.realvnc.com/

That sort of question would be more appropriate to ask on your firewall forum – not here. Only people familiar with your firewall would know for sure your firewall possible behaviors. Depending how you enabled your Remote Desktop – it is potentially possible that it altered firewalls settings – still considering sensitivity of a change, I would investigate it further and make sure change was legit. \nBTW hope you know using Remote Desktop is not very safe unless it is combined with VPN client as hamachi for instance:\nhttp://www.hamachi.cc/

On any of the server computers on the network, go to run, type DCPROMO, you would find the wizard which would create a DOMAIN CONTROLLER or the main server. Once thats done, you can add other computers under this DOMAIN CONTROLLER as clients.

first download something called noip\n\nfrom www.no-ip.com and you can set up your own domain (assigned by them!)\n\nthen download tightvnc, and access it from tightvnc.\n\njust open your pc (the one you want to access from) and go to ie explorer and type in yournoipdomain:5800\n\nthen you can remote control

you need to run the applications on the PC you consider as server, give it IP address then tell your DNS that this name map to this IP.\n\nopen ports for "others" that the applications will recieve requests through.\n\ntry to connect from one computer to the server.\n\nHave Fun!

Rather than use PC Anywhere to connect to a Windows 2000 box, why dont you try using Remote Desktop Connection?  It is software that comes with windows so there is nothing to buy.  You will have to make sure to configure any firewalls to allow connections, but it is simle to use.

I am assuming that you are using Windows XP.  First of all, make sure that you have configured your machine to allow remote desktop access.  Right-click on "My Computer", click on the "Remote" tab, then make sure that "Allow users to connect remotely" (in the Remote Desktop section) has been checked.\n\nNext, make sure that if you are using any firewall software or your machine is connected to any type of router that is blocking ports that you open up port 3389, which is the remote desktop port.\n\nIf the machine is given an internal IP address using Network Address Translation (NAT) and your machine isn't the one with the exposed static IP, then make sure you set up port forwarding services on the router to go to the correct IP address of your machine on your internal network (use IPCONFIG on the machine you wish to connect to in order to get this) and forward requests to port 3389 to that machine.

Could always use a remote client such as Tight vnc, its pretty good, works with windows and unix. Just be careful which ports you leave open ;-)\n\nphil\n\nps. its open source
