What does the Server service do, and what is Server Storage, do you know? I have a 3Com ethernet card, hooked up to a cable modem, hooked up to, duh... Cable. Is this the problem that I'm not on a "real" network?

BTW, I'm sorry a privated you with that MSDE thing, I knew it was a terribly lame thing preventing me from starting it. I didn't have SP4+ for NT (Doh!).

I've never used another Back-End before, can you tell? <g>)
