So just to make it clear to me, the cable from my server NIC to my hub (which
btw has no uplink, it's a simple one i picked up from work, one plug "To
Datalink" 4 plugs "To System 1 - 4") needs to be a straight cable, and the
cables from the hub to the clients need to be crossover cables? I think they
are crossovers, because they do work when i hook the server up directly to my
client.
Thanks, I'll drop by radioshack tomorrow
