Can apple computers connect to a VPN?
Do apple computers have the capability to use remote desktop?

If so, are there limitations as a opposed to using a Windows version? What are they? Is there particular server software you reccommend? This server will be used as a fileserver mainly.

Will I have any poblems with my server if I go from XP and office 2003 to Vista and office 2007

I know that by default you are entitle to 5 licenses, if I want to add a more nodes, do I need to purchase extra lisences beyond the 5?

I would like to install a software in all my computers ( 6 ) how do i do this all at the same time? or do i have to install it all manually?

I’m running a small network at home.
Comprised of a Windows server and several desktops running off of it.
I’m currently running Active Directory and other such servers.
Basically, I want to set it up so that all the users can access the same files at any computer they access.

So, if they make a document on computer A they can then go to computer B and find it in the same spot.

Suggestions to what I’m looking for? And how to set it up?

Thanks,
Dale

Small network (five computers), Windows 2000 server. As of one day last week, (at least) two of the computers–which had mapped z: drives to the server’s common data storage drive–were no longer connected to the server. Little red x over the z: drive on my computer. Just a few days before, both had access to and were using their z: drives.

At least one other computer on the network has access to the z: drive.

I’ve been through Windows help (networking, etc.) to no avail. Cables all are plugged in an tight. I tried mapping a new connection to the server, but each of these two computers cannot find the server.

Any suggestions for reconnecting these computers to the server?

I am trying to figure out a way for remote desktop to give access to multiple users to a Windows 2003 Server. When one user is already logged in via Remote Desktop using the admin account, and there is another user who wants to log in using the same admin account, it gives the error that the previous user must log out before he can log in.

Is there a moderately painless way of resolving this in order to give them both access at the same time?

Thank you!

I have a home network with 2 XP boxes and 1 Windows Server 2003. I have shared out my drive on the server box but i am not seeing it from the other computers like i have been when every computer was just XP. Every computer is in the right workgroup and drive is shared. Am I missing something with Server is it different from XP?

I have a netgear router, and wireless network set up. My server is set to be part of “workgroup” as is my vista laptop, vista desktop. My Apple is set to a network called “roberts.” When I got to my network places on my vista machines I can see the other vista machine and the apple computer but not the server. I go to entire windows network and still cannot reach the server. I have all firewalls turned off. I the router set up with port forwarding to allow for remote connections. I enabled the remote desktop and can access my server from vista but not vista from the server. Any ideas?
