Hi, I have a weird bug in Windows 2004 that appears to have cropped earlier with wired networking (e.g., Windows shows no internet access but my internet is working fine.) and although it's more of a cosmetic issue than anything else, I wonder if there is something I can do about it. In short...

I am new to the forum and to servers in general, so please excuse my ignorance. I have built a couple of home servers using WHS 2011 and Windows Server 2016 Essentials using the skip domain script, but none requiring CALs. I want to build a new home server using a quad socket xeon E-5 4600 10...

I don't find anything on this and i'm trying to configure my home linux mini server to be able to make some lan webpages discoverable by windows as a "network infrastructure device" or other devices/media devices in the network explorer. I know it is possible as my router has the administration...

I am reasonable acquainted with windows computers and Android phones; as much as a long retired engineer ( I worked with all kinds of computers) can be. To overcome some of the boredom, much to great annoyance of my wife (who strangely thinks I already spend too much time on computers!), I have...
