  1. What you are talking about is a peer to peer lan setup

    First thing to check if you are going PC to PC is that you are using a crossover RJ45 cable or it will never work

    Is that what you are using ?

     

     

     

     

    Hi friends,

              I have two computers both having windows XP pro operating system and i have one LAN cable and i connected both computers through LAN terminals and i'm unable to transfer data from both computers.So what setting i have to make for doing this?

     

    Thanks,

    sunny

  3. Why are things supplied for free when they cost the supplier money or time?

     

    This s a thread to discuss this and try and see motivations.

    Why is this important ?

    Because ,in business, I need to know the supplier and thier motivations, as freeware and other free things can be a carrier for things that are dangerous suck as viruses, trojans and other nasties.

     

    Having a look at the excellent offer from Xisto I see two motivations, one that they are trying to encourage usage in an altruistic way , the other that there is an entry barrier in the number of posts that will encourage those who do not want to pass that barrier to pay the very low entry cost of $9.95 for a better service.

     

    What other free items can you identify with different reasons for the offer?

     

    Some I can think of are

    Altruisim

    Self Promotion

    Company Promotion

    Branding

    Spoiler (of some other commercial software)

    Competition between offerings

    Promotion of alternatives

    Any other motivations with examples

     

    Thanks

     


  4. I have used a number of packages:

     

    Blitzbasic 3D

    Dark Basic

    Orge

    Delphi and GL Scene

     

    Of these al have strengths and all have weaknesses

     

    Blitzbasic 3D - great support, costly good level builder (Maplet) diffculty in importing models

    Dark Basic - not cheap, so so support

    Ogre -C language -looks goog

    Delphi with GL Scene - my favourite

     

     

     

    what language do you prefer in creating/developing games?

     

    i'm just starting to programm and i'm using c++  :rolleyes:

  5. Be careful of secondhand systems at auction sites, often they are still overpriced as the person selling sets the value by what they paid (i.e I paid $1000 for this 3 years ago) rather that what they are worth.

     

    Can I sell anybody a Microvax Unit (older Server equivalent to a 386) that I still have on the books at $10,000 ...... :rolleyes:

     

     

    I desperately need my own computer and I'll raise enough money to get one in a couple of months. I need help on which computer I should get.. I don't need much out of it, it just can't be slow. Any suggestions on what I should get would be GREATLY appreciated. I'm kinda new on the computer market, so I really don't know what's out there.

    Thank you.

  6. Did this ever work? Is you username and password correct? What clinet are you using? What OS (can you access the low level FTP client in Win*** and use that to test the client?

     

    Any more info ? We can not really help with what you have given us.

    Regards

     

     

    Every time I try to use my FTP account I keep geting an error: the connection attempt timed out. I get this same error every time I try to see my site also. Can anyone help me...?

  7. With Databases it really is a case of "horses for courses"MySQL is everywhere where Linux and LAMP (Linux,Apache,MySQL,PHP and or Perl) exist. But it is not the most powerful of the free database offerings.In Order of Simplicity of Data Structure for "Free" Databases the choice would be CSV File |XML file | basicaly text filesMySQLPostGreSQLSQL Server Express (Win32 only) -note 4G data limitOf the list the latter two are the hardest to learm, but most powerful (i.e including stored procedures)Regards
