[AccessD] OT: Route computer to network

Yeh Jim, 

I know but where would be the challenge in that. Some additional information
is that the current connection is through an old wiring job, coax and the
cable is just too short...it just reaches one of the servers so without
having to re-cable and then add a new hub I just thought that this might be
easier. But trying to describe the issue has been very difficult.

Thanks for your input...I may follow your advice yet but.....
Jim

  Simple answer: Make life easy on yourself and save money - Buy another
hub.  It will cost less then $50, which is a lot cheaper then the cost of
the time you'll spend trying to get a multi-homed server setup and browsing
to work properly.

Hi All:

Here is another off topic computer related question. I have reviewed a
number of possibilities but am not sure what the correct solution would be.
It is probably a fairly simple solution to individuals more skilled in
networking.

Given: A Windows 2000 advanced server with one network card connecting to
the rest of the network and one network card directly connected to another
computer off which a printer is attached. The Windows 2000 computer can see
the whole network as well as all the shares on the attached computer.

Question: How to share the resources of the attached computer with the rest
of the network?? (Ran out of plugs on the router or would not be attempting
this 'Mickey Mouse' arrangement.)

Any help, suggesting or directions to examples to follow would be great
appreciated. (My last network certification ended with Novell 4.x.)

MTIA
Jim
