The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Build a non p2p network

Asked by abugintheground in Miscellaneous Networking, Network Auditing Software, Peer to Peer

Tags: , ,

I've currently got three pcs connected to a netgear dg814 adsl router, running in a p2p setup (ie there is no server, all 3 computers can merely access each other's files via the router).
My dad keeps complaining about the rate at which ink on his printer gets used up (his computer has 2 printers connected to it and the other 2 computers can access these via the network), and so I found a program called papercut which can track print usage.
However, in order for this to work properly, I need the network to be set up in a server-client arrangement.  I need to know how to do this, so that my dad's computer is the server, and the other two can logon to the network.
There are, however, a few problems:
1. I don't know how to set up a server-client network.
2. My computer is running winxp pro, but my dad's computer is only using winxp home and the third computer is on win98se.
3. I would use my computer as the server as it is the fastest (p4 2.1ghz compared with p2 400mhz and an old amd k6-200mhz) and is running xp pro, but i can't have the printers attached to my computer as they need to be in the same room as my dad's.
Basically what I need to know is: is it possible to use an xp home pc as a server, and will running a slow server significantly slow down it or the other computers in the network?

Oh and if anyone knows of any other (free) print analysis type software i could use which might work better, that'd be a help too.
Cheers
