thomas@nordichardware.com 0 Posted May 5, 2001 Hehe, I want all the answers before I get the computer itself... I'm going to do it the easiest way: Internet connection (512 kbit...) --- 10 mbit network to P75 --- 100 mbit network to Duron 1GHz. Is it possible to have 2 differect PCI-NICs in one computer? If so, I'll be happy! Share this post Link to post
Ge0ph 0 Posted May 5, 2001 Yes you can have two nics in one computer. I have set this up under both NT4 and W2k. I would use one nic for the DSL internet connection and the second nic for my internal network. After I got my Linksys DSL router I no longer had a need to do this. Share this post Link to post
thomas@nordichardware.com 0 Posted May 5, 2001 OK, I knew it was possible, but I didn't know if it worked in NT. I will run NT4 Workstation on my server... Share this post Link to post
Guest Posted May 5, 2001 Why would you run WinNT Workstation on your "Server". Woulnd't WinNT "Server" be better? Workstation may not have some of the functionality you will need. Share this post Link to post
thomas@nordichardware.com 0 Posted May 5, 2001 Of COURSE I know, but I don't have access to Server... I thought that it would be Server first, but then i changed... BTW, the only thing it'll do is to run a FTP-server-prog, a web-server-prog (does NOT need NT server), and a firewall-prog. None of these programs need NT4 Server, in fact i thought about running Win95! Share this post Link to post
clutch 1 Posted May 5, 2001 Bear in mind NT Workstation is limited to 10 connections max. Just thought you should know, as this could affect your applications. Share this post Link to post
thomas@nordichardware.com 0 Posted May 5, 2001 Which means? Do you mean 10 computers or 10 connections? None of 'em should bring trouble though. FTP - MAX 2 connections at a time UD - MAX 1 Firewall (Is this max one or max -all the apps i use on my computer behind this one-)? Web server - May skip this one if it's only 10 connections Share this post Link to post
