Adjusting the sharing permissions fixed the problem.

I posted this same problem to another forum. The reply I received encouraged me to check inherited permissions and share permissions in addition to file permissions.

I checked the permissions from...

That should be: "Unable to modify shared files and folders."

I am running Active Directory on a Windows Server 2003 Standard (SP2) machine. I added an external hard drive to hold shared files. I...

VPN is the way to go. You may be able to configure this on your router if it's capable. The router can authenticate or you can use a RADIUS server to authenticate.

Anyone had any luck setting one up?

Here's what my setup looks like: DSL Modem --> PIX 501 Firewall --> Switch --> Server (Windows Server 2003) --> Client Systems (XP Pro).

The modem has a...

The computers in the office probably have a internal IP address (e.g. 192.168.1.#). Is that correct? You won't be able to connect to them remotely using their internal IP addresses. One option is to...

Can anyone help me with this? Did I post it in the wrong forum?

I was able to set up a VPN using a PIX 501 firewall with a Windows Server 2003 machine as the RADIUS server. I am able to establish the VPN connection without problem but when I attempt to connect to...

Disconnect all non-essentially hardware and go from there. Once, you're sure the crashes have stopped, start reconnecting one at a time until you figure out which one is causing the problem.

Thanks!

Did you Google "Event ID 1073"? Anything there help out?

My notebook computer does not have integrated wireless. I want to pick up either a USB or PCMCIA reciever. My question is, what standard do most Wi-Fi hotspots use? Most of what I'm seeing for sale...

goldeagle2005 pretty much summed up what makes a server different than a client system. If money is an issue, you can use a regular computer as a server. I've seen it done with good results. That...

Were you previously online or have you never been able to get the system to connect to the Internet? Are you running XP? Is the computer connected directly to the DSL router?

Congrats. Glad you got it worked out.

When you ping, does the router respond to that?

I'm not familiar with this router but I'm guessing that isn't what the config screen...

Except you titled the thread, "problems getting past the router," which is a different problem than getting to the router. No offense.

What troubleshooting have you tried?

Right-click on it and go to Properties. What does it say the problem is?

Based on this message, you are have problems getting to your router.

Have you checked to make sure that the correct drivers are installed for the card? Go to the Device Manager and see if there is an error icon next to the sound card.

Try reinstalling the drivers. If you can't do this (because the computer no longer sees the soundcard itself), shut off and unplug, pull card, plug and restart, power down and unplug again, reinsert...

Are you hosting the email account or is it hosted by an ISP?

Run a virus scan (if you haven't already), then an adware scan (I use Ad-Aware (http://www.lavasoft.de/software/adaware/)), and finish up with a registry scanner/cleaner (like RegSeeker...

The OP wrote, "I went to the screen settings and it's still set to normal." I took this to mean that he or she has already checked that.

Doesn't sound like a poorly built system. Sounds like you're not using the correct drivers for the wireless device. If it doesn't prompt you for the drivers when you plug it in, then wait for the...

Please provide more details. When you say it loses sound, do you mean it has sound when you start up and then it goes away? If so, what do you do to get it back? Is there a certain thing you're doing...

Doing a reformat and reinstall will usually eliminate OS problems. However, I have seen faulty Restore disks that make the problem worse.

Have you checked your Event Viewer to see if any errors...

Sound card, modem, NIC, CD-ROM drive(s), floppy drive, etc. Everything non-essential and not integrated. Video card is essential unless you have two. It wouldn't hurt to switch it out if the problem...

Try reinstalling the drivers for your display adapter. Let us know how that works out.

It could be a critical but sporadic problem with your OS, a malfunctioning piece of hardware, or even power fluctuations.

I don't have a lot of experience with RAID but I think you'll have to have specific drivers for the computer to see the drive outside of Windows. Try checking w/ the manufacturer for these

My advice in a different thread. Try this first (you, too, ddbaby11):

"To help diagnose your OS non-starting problem, unplug the system and press the power button and hold it for a few moments to...

First off, for the sake of your computer, crack the case more often and give it a good cleaning with some compressed air. Especially important since you leave yours on so much. ;) Also, make sure...

What are you trying to do when the message appears? Did your system come with any CD-ROM's for reinstalling software?

Is it only in 16-colors when you terminate svchost.exe or at all times?

Did you make any changes to your system (software or hardware) recently that might have caused the problem? What happened to your XP CD-ROM? You might be able to use your friends but I doubt it will...

What do you mean by "disconnect from the net"? Most DSL connections are always on. Does the problem occur when you close Internet Explorer (or whatever browser you're using)?

From www.liutilities.com (http://www.liutilities.com/products/wintaskspro/processlibrary/svchost/):

You'll have to use a boot disk to get to a DOS prompt.

I've always had good results with RegSeeker (http://www.hoverdesk.net/freeware.htm).
