    Opening ports

    Hmm, good point. If your 'modem' is actually a router, you will need to bridge it and disable NAT in order for your port forwarding to work as prescribed. Double-NAT'ing causes all kinds of problems and should be avoided when possible.

    Opening ports

    Hello, welcome to HWF. What you are trying to do is called "PAT (port address translation)" in more standard networking terminology, but D-Link calls it "port forwarding" in this case. In the product manual on page 31-32 you can find D-Link's directions on port forwarding. Once you've read those...

    Centos 5.3 64 bit problem

    Interesting, but it still should have been able to boot fine with the RAID rebuilding. You can check the status of a Linux RAID like this: cat /proc/mdstat

    Centos 5.3 64 bit problem

    I see. CentOS is a good choice then, though you will have to tweak Samba out of the box a bit since their default rollout is a bit broken. Still, after a little TLC it works great, and I've found it outperforms a "real" Windows server about 2.5:1. Also, I have a lot of experience consulting...

    Centos 5.3 64 bit problem

    Centos 5.3 64 bit problem

    how to install OS from network?

    It really depends on the OS you're installing much more than the hardware itself. With Linux, just put it on a USB thumbdrive and install that way. With Windows, you can use an external DVD drive to do the installation. Or, depending on the version, you *might* be able to use the thumbdrive...

    PS/2 to USB converter adaptor

    Connect-debounce failed errors typically mean the connection to the device is not reliable. Most likely, it means that either your adapters are defective (either by design or manufacture), or that the device you've plugged it into is incompatible. I'd guess the former based on their source...
