I'm running Windows Server 2008 and Windows Vista using Parallels on my MacBook. I'm supposed to assign IP addresses to both (this is a static IP address, if I'm not mistaken), as well as preferred DNS server and alternate DNS server. I know how to get to the IPv4 and IPv6 configuration areas in Local Area Connection Properties, but I have no idea what the difference is between the two. Furthermore, when I go to IPv4 or IPv6 Properties, I click on, "Use the following IP address, " but I have no idea what IP address to use. Is it the IP address of the MacBook, or do I simply choose a brand new IP address for both machines? Plus, how do I figure out the preferred DNS and alternate DNS servers? I know how to do ipconfig /all and all that, but in therm of assigning a brand new address/DNS server, I don't know what to do.
Another thing, whenever I try to configure a new IP address, it tells me it's an Unidentified Network. Should I be worried about this?
Finally, I'm definitely concerned about messing with the IP address of my MacBook. Although I won't give out my IP address verbatim, the IP address for the MacBook is similar to 24.158.240.88, and I tried altering it manually and couldn't connect to the internet anymore. Should I do anything with that IP address? Or should I only concern myself with the IP address of my Server 2008 and Vista machines? I've heard that the IP can be in the range of my router, what does that mean? How do I find out my router's IP? Is it the same as the IP for my MacBook? Am I way off here?
I have previously sort of asked about this within someone else's thread, so apologies to anyone who may have already seen a convoluted version of the below.
Basically, I am about to buy a 2010 Mac Pro 6 core. Due to many of the MacRumors posters, I have been advised to buy my drives and RAM from OWC, which I shall do. I am now trying to figure out just what I should buy, and how I would then set up for backup.
So first, I will tell you what I already have on hand... I'm running a G5 with the internal 230gb drive (holds system, apps, photos, iTunes), an external 512gb LaCie (holds all my work) and and external 2TB LaCie that used only to back up the other two, using Retrospect. (it is partitioned in half and one half is just about full. Truth be told, I don't really understand the backup process and it was set up by someone else.)
I am a graphic designer and keep needing more space to store and back up work.
So I am planning for sure to buy an SSD - 200gb OWC Mercury Pro RE
Then the MP will come with the 1TB drive.
Should I get another internal 1TB or 2TB drive from OWC, even if I have the external now?
Once I know what I should get, I then am confused about how it all gets backed up. I've always heard the backup drive needs to be MUCH larger than the sum of the drives it is backing up. Is that true? If so, do I need 1 drive that is bigger than 2TB for everything to go on, or can it be split up?

View 8 Replies View RelatedAfter 2 days of playing around with the new apple keyboard and mighty mouse, I thought, that's enough, and connected my logitech keyboard + mouse.
The keyboard is a big improvement, it has both windows and apple keys on it, and has a lot of extra features, like for example being able to press the 'print screen'. Even the mouse seems to work better, could ajust to the right clicking of the mighty mouse, sometimes it works, sometimes it didn't.
One think I'm still looking for is how to disable the display of widgets when you press the mouse wheel. I tried steermouse, it lets me configure the mouse wheel click as third button, but that doesn't change anything, I tried to run LCC (Logitech Control Center?) but it only showed me my keyboard.

The eMac has a PowerPC G4 processor, and runs Mac OS X 10.4.11 Tiger, and connects online via AirPort Extreme Wi-Fi.
The two PCs I also installed the Remote Disc software on are...
Dell Dimension PC running Windows XP Home SP3, connects via Ethernet.
HP Pavilion dv7 laptop running Windows Vista Home Premium SP2, connects via wireless.
The eMac is on the same connection as both PCs are. I can access files from the Dell, but have issues accessing the HP.
Now anyways, I did the whole kit and caboodle install for the Mac and PCs. I checked off the "Allow DVD or CD sharing" on all three computers. I even tried the Terminal commands. can fix it?
I was just wondering if you guys wouldn't mind posting pics of your setups old where you all use your macs and what you put them on.

I am trying to setup OS X 10.7 Lion to work as an a NIS/NFS client but without too much success so far. I posted the question originally on [url] but got not feedback yet, so I decided to test the "official" help-yourself solution. It seems that automount fails to mount my NIS shares on mac:

Two days ago I started noticing this annoying problem whenever I wanted to load a page. The page never loads at first, forcing me to press refresh in order to see its content.
I didn't install anything nor changed any configurations.
I called a friend with a Win Vista PC and everything was fine in his computer.
I tried the Safari, Firefox, Chrome and Opera browsers. The problem subsists in every one of them.
My router is a Pirelli DRG A223G and I've never had any problems with it.
I alredy tried switching it off, reseting it, turning off and on my airport, restoring my disk, cleaning the browser's cache and info, etc..
So, for the past 5 months or so, any time I'm using the internet at home, the connection speeds are atrocious. I bought a new modem (which Charter quickly dispatched as being "unsupported", despite 3 techs telling me it would work), tried hard wiring my iMac to check for wifi issues, and have basically just gone out of my mind with speeds that make dial-up look favorable.
Whenever I experience page timeouts or flat out no connectivity, I resort to the time-tested "turn Airport off/on" solution, which provides a page or two of fast connectivity before the slow downs continue. I'm beginning to think my router is on its way out, but the fact that it works sometimes makes me think it still might be the ISP.
