1. Leslie is the resident expert on Paperport and fax management
2. The whole idea of networking is so everyone can have access to everything. (If you let them). Of course, it has to be set up right and SHARED.
3. You may consider yourself a techno-idiot (your words), but even though you do medicine, you probably want your patients to do some (well a little) research on their own. It's a good idea to know a little. The most screwed up things I have seen in networking are when IT guys do it. I have found the following to be true:
When an network IT person sets up a network for themselves or one from scratch, it tends to be good. But, when they don't really have a concept of what you want to do...they just do it their way and it is often screwed up.
Your IT person certainly knows DNS, TCP/IP, WINS, Gateways, etc. but all of a sudden throw in Paperport, which he or she has never seen and you have a nightmare there.
I am sure Leslie can help. I am more than happy as many on here are to help with the networking.
Also, if looking for help, what is your setup? Peer to peer? Client/Server domain, workgroup, XP Pro, XP Home, which version of AC, what is your topology?
