Hi everyone!

I have recently set up a network. Server is with nt 4.0 operating system, some of the workstations a on win 95, and other are on DOS 6.22 with WFW 3.11. I have few questions:

1. I setup a network in bookkeeping company. On every machine is set up printer. This is convenient because output documents must be put on right place in the moment they are done. But, on the end of the year we must print a lot periodic documents. We use FoxPro 2.6 DOS on our DOS and Windows machine, and print to file, and then copying this file to the printer. I am wandering if there is a way to output file before copying to local printer redirect to the another printer on the DOS client (for windows solution is simple, only I must do is to configure printer like shared). I am not sure if DOS can share a printer, but my friend say "Novell personal netware" can.

2. I have a modem (BOCA 28.800 MV.34I) witch I use to connect to the internet. I want to put my modem on the server and to be able to use it for connection to the internet, and to be able to send and receive a faxes. I can see anywhere sharing modem properties. I am also wondering about protocols. If I would be able to make modem sharable I must install a TCP/IP protocol on server to access my internet provider, but from server modem to local station witch protocol I will be use. Is it TCP/IP or it is NetBEUI, or how looks this type of connection.

3. I cant see anywhere add new hardware in my NT 4.0. Must I look better or…


4. For the backup equipment what is your suggestions. Jaz, syquest or tape ?

5. If someone knew where I could find a NT mailing list, I am ready and wainting.

Thanks in advance.
