The worst hour of computing

(1/3) > >>

rtgwbmsr:
I've just officially had the worst hour of computing of my life. EVERYTHING ON MY NETWORK is perennially fucked up. So I need a little help.

I decided that I wanted networking to work. LOL. The problem was that my Winblows PCs (when I was in Windows, anyway) couldn't see my Mac and vice-versa. A friend of mine said that Winblows networking only works when all of the services are on "automatic". So I do this.

Now that computer can't boot to Windows XP. The cursor changes to an hourglass when you hover over it. Oh, there's SO much more.

Apache CAN NO LONGER START PROPERLY on my server.

Linux on the server is fucked up in general.

Whenever something network-related is opened on my mac (browsers, control panels) the program being used locks up.

.NET Server (on my test server I brought home to experiment with) is the only thing that seems to work correctly.

If you can get here: http://www.akgames.net:8000/ then that works.

If anyone could clue me into WHAT THE FUCK Winsuckalltheassintheworld XP has done to my network, that would be great.

I'd post this on windowsbbs.com, but they know nothing, and I can't cuss there. It's just not gonna work...

THANKS!
A very aggravated Muffin Man.

Stryker:
The only thing i can think of (unless somehow microsoft has programmed windows xp to memorize passwords and get into and destory other operating systems) is that there is likely an ip conflict. that could stop apache, and viewing the files. What protocol are you using (smb, appletalk, nfs)?


Do you know the muffin man?

Master of Reality:
sounds like an IP conflict

rtgwbmsr:
You think an IP conflict caused all of that? How odd...

Thanks, I'll look into it.

Master of Reality:
or you might want to get yourself some leprachaunicide... those damn leprachauns can be a nuisance.
