Connect two G5 with 1000BASE-T (Gigabit) - how?

what i need to connect two G5 dual 1.8 with 1000BASE-T (Gigabit)?
just a cable or some cards and routers and ....?

Yeah, like tele_player said, it's a little harder if you want them to both have internet. We just set up our MDD and quad on a gigabit switch that so they can communicate with each other at gigabit speeds and then the switch was hooked up to a router for internet access. It wasn't that bad and we got all the supplies online for cheap. 50 foot sections of CAT 6 cost about $10. If you need to go through walls or anything like that, get the tool-less keystone jack connectors...they'll make your life much easier.

What happen when we connect Two PC with IP from Same subnets

Scenario 2nd : What happen when we connect Two PC with IP from Same subnets. PC1 -192.168.10.1/24 PC2 - 192.168.10.2 on a two different L2 Switch on different vlans which are connected via a LAN cable.
All ports are access ports
Interview Question : No More Info.
Pc1<SwA>------<SwB>PC2
Q.1 Will they communicate If yes what will be packet/frame flow.
Q.2 If not where will be the packet/frame drop. ? Why.
I need step by step if possible plz how the packet moves , vlan taggings n all internal works that happens behind .. plz
thnx in advnce ....

Hi Abhishesk,
The PCs should communicate each othet.
Since there is no trunk port involved, there is not tagging involved.
Since both the PCs are into the same subnet. PC1 will not need default gateway for the communication with PC2. So PC1 will start with sending ARP request for PC2 MAC address.
Since all the ports in SW1 are in same VLAN, the ARP should reach all ports including the switchport where SW2 is connected to.
Sw2 has got a complete different access port on ALL the switchports. Sw2 will receive the ARP from Sw1. Remember that there is no tagging for the frame. Hence Sw2 will again send the ARP packet to all the ports which belong to same VLAN wherein the packet is received. ie, Sw2 will send the ARP packet to all the ports in Sw2. PC2 will also get the the ARP.
The ARP reply will make it way back using the same logic.
Now both the PCs can start the actual packet exchange.

Can connect two Macs with USB2 cable?

Can connect two Macs with USB2 cable?

You can connect two Macs with an ethernet wire, or conect two Macs using Firewire if one is placed in target disk mode, but that is it.

Can I connect two macs with thunder bolt ?

can i connect two macs with thunderbolt like I do with firewire and IP? I don't want to transfer files by using the control "T" at startup . I want use VNC to control one mac from the other and use thunderbolt vs ethernet.
thanks for any help

You can connect the two. Whether you can use VNC, I have no idea.

Is it possible to directly connect two Xserves with a Promise VTrak E610fD via Fibre?

I have two Xserves and I'd like to connect them with a Promise VTrak E610fD. As this storage has two controllers, I'd like to connect both Xserve with both controllers. Is this setup possible? Can I access (read and write) the same disk array with both Xserves simultaneously (Xsan?) or do I have to create two separate arrays?

Hello bleistift, and welcome to the AppleBoards,
Fibre channel is SCSI which means that any device connected by fibre assumes it is in sole control of that device. When you attach more than one machine via fibre both machines assume they are in control and unexpected behaviors and data corruption ensues. SAN (like Apple's XSAN) provides a layer of arbitration over the shares allowing multiple fibre connections to play nicely with one another while still being connected over fibre.
You could easily connect two machines to a single RAID box if they are accessing different RAID volumes at the same time, but once you start connecting to the same data at the same time you need SAN.

Connecting two 4510r with Fiber

I would like to connect two 4510r (50 Km separated) via FO but it doesn´t seem to support ZX FSPs and the supervisors don´t have GBIC slots. Any recommendations?

Two questions -
What Sup is in question?
Are you using this SFP( part number GLC-ZX-SM=) ?
This SFP seems to be supported by Sup IV and SuP V.
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/hw/switches/ps4324/products_data_sheets_list.html
Also check this link. The highlight being
"Cisco 1000BASE-ZX GBIC can reach up to 62 miles (100 km) by using dispersion shifted SMF or low-attenuation SMF; the distance depends on fiber quality, number of splices, and connectors."

Connecting two computers with xover cable

I have the Sun Java System Application Server PE8 installed on a computer under Windows XP Professional, and another computer to connected to it with a crossover cable.
The client can ping the host, but when the client tries to connect to the app server with a web browser I get a "Failure to connect to web server" error.
However, I can connect to the app server from a browser on the host itself.
Do you I need to anything to make the app server accessible from another machine? Perhaps define some security settings?
bobj5000

It sounds like you got it right if the client can ping the host so I'm not sure why you can't get to the web server. I would assume if you can ping you would be able to connect to the web server. I don't think this is an appserver issue so I'm not sure you will get a response in this forum. Maybe you could try another resource that deals more with setting up windows boxes using a crossover cable.

Connecting two iMac with a Firewire cable

Hello. First off, I have two iMac, one is a 24" early 2009 model (from now on, the "big") andthe other is a 21" first generation Intel (from now on, the "small")
Big one is sick, need heavy reparation. So a user of the forum recommended this:
"+Since you're able to post here, you have another Mac. You can use a FireWire cable to connect your iMac to another Mac in Target Disk Mode. This essentially turns your iMac into an expensive external HD enclosure. To boot your iMac into Target Disk Mode, start up your iMac and hold down the T key immediately after you hear the startup sound. Release it when you see the big FireWire symbol on the screen.+
+Then you can use a FireWire cable to connect your iMac to another Mac. This should mount the iMac's hard disk on the desktop of the other Mac. I suggest you use DiskWarrior to try to recover the files on your iMac's hard disk.+"
So, mi issue is that big one doesn't have a Firewire port. It's almost unbelievable but the true is that those models never came with that kind of port.
Any idea of what kind of cable should I use to link both computers? Thanks in advance!

Hi killthepixel
Both have FireWire Ports, the problem is that the Early 09 has a FireWire 800 port and the other if it's an Early white 20" has two FireWire 400 ports.
If that is the case, then you would need a 6 to 9 pin FireWire cable to connect the two systems up in Target Disk Mode.
http://www.amazon.com/Tripp-Lite-F017-006-Firewire-Hi-speed/dp/B000AAZQLI/ref=pdbxgy_e_textb
Below is the Apple Support Article for Firewire target disk mode.

Lastly have you tried to boot and fix the sick iMac using the Install Disk that came with it.

Connecting two networks with two internet connections

Hi All
The situation is this. Two firms situated next door to each other and linked by their businesses and by their family ties, wish to connect their two networks together. They both have internet connections. The reason is for security, in the event of one internet going down they can use the other one.
As I see it, we could use a wireless bridge/repeater to connect the two ethernets together, turn off DHCP in both networks, and manually configure the IP addresses on one network to say 192.168.1.1 to 192.168.1.100 and set the gateway as the router address in that network, again manually allocated. Then on the other network set the scope to 192.168.1.101 to 192.168.1.200 with the router on that network set in this range.
In the event of failure of one internet connection, it would just require the gateway to be changed for those pcs to access the router on the other network. I know of a little program which would do that automatically.
Would this work? If so which Linksys equipment would I need to bridge the two networks. I know some equipment will do the bridging and allow wireless clients to connect, so that would be useful, I know it slows it down by half, but this might be acceptable.
Will there be other problems rearing their ugly heads which I haven't considered.
The networks are not large, so manual IP configuration is not a problem.
Thanks

I presume both networks are using wireless connections. If you can see your neighbour's network on your computer and vice versa, all you need is the passphrase to connect. You may have to disable filter mac address in your router.

Connect two Apples with Airport??

have a new Airport Extreme to take on the road.
(Never used airport before)
While I have it at home I would like to connect the airport
to my Mac G4 desktop/Powerbook via Ethernet and dial into
the Internet and use that net connection for my Mac Book
via Airport. I have setup an airport network using the Ethernet connection and my Mac Book sees it.
My question is how can I get the Mac Book to 'see' the other computer and get control of the internet access????
(remote desktop??? Apple server????)
What's the setup???
Thanks

Thanks for your reply.
Actually you had the answer.
I turned on sharing on the internet computer (host)
for the internet dial as the input and ethernet as the output.
Than connected ethernet to Airport Extreme and setup an Airport network entry.
Any computer logged on to that Airport entry can access the
internet via the host computer.

Connecting two macs with afp

Both a friend and I got brand new Mac Book Pros for college but he is going to a different college so were trying to get it set up so that we can transfer files between each other and access each other's computers. I started toying with afp but have been unable to get it to work even after checking my sharing settings. On another point I have thought about creating a VPN but have soon come too realize that that could be more complicated to setup and use. Can anyone see a problem, a I missing something?

Hi RustyBoltz,
Welcome to the forum.
You'll both need to forward (map) port 548 in your respective routers to the internal IP of your respective Macs. Port 548 is the Apple Filing Protcol (AFP) over TCP port. Forwarding it to a computer's internal IP enables a remote user to simply click on the Go menu in the Finder menubar, select Connect to Server..., enter the ISP assigned IP address (if not known can be found by going to www.whatismyip.com) and then, after entering their username/password be able to access the files on the remote Mac and upload/download files.
Alternatively, you can use an online server like .Mac to upload files to a Public folder that can be accessed by both of you.

Connecting two computers with two routes?

Yes, can I hook up two computers, each with a different router on one phone line? I hope this makes sense. I have one main computer hooked up to a wireless/wired router and the one in another room I want to hook up to the internet also. Do I need another router for that other computer? The distance on the wireless does not reach to the other computer.

Here are my educated guess(es) :
Perhaps you could..
#1 use a wireless extender?
#2 use a wireless bridge?
#3 convert the second router into a hub/switch/wap?

Connect Toad freeware with Oracle express Edition, How?

Hello,
Although I know that people will raise the question this is Oracle and use SQL developer... Ok I do that and that is working fine. But on my work they work with TOAD so I like to work with TOAD as well and I want get some knowledge about Toad, TNSNAMES etc.
I've put the issue on TOAD forum as well, but till now I don't have received an answer.
I want to teach/learn myself Oracle by working with the Oracle express edition. I have downloaded the SQL Developer and I can work with it, which means I can create a connection.
Errors when I try to work with TOAD are:
If i try to make a connection:
- "No valid clients found. You need at least one 64-bit client properly configured"
If I click on TNSNames editor:
- Access violation in address xxxxxxx at module TOAD.exe"
I have installed oracle at D:\ORACLE_HOME. In this directory is also a TNSNAMES.ORA file.
I have installed the express edition with the installer. I have first installed the Oracle express edition and later TOAD.
I'm working on my local machine with:
- windows 7 Home
- Oracle 32 bit client:
- Oracle Database 11g Express Edition Release 11.2.0.2.0 - Production
- PL/SQL Release 11.2.0.2.0 - Production
- "CORE 11.2.0.2.0 Production"
- TNS for 32-bit Windows: Version 11.2.0.2.0 - Production
- NLSRTL Version 11.2.0.2.0 - Production
- TOAD 64-bit freeware.
*Questions:*
*- Are there certain environment variables necessary? Does TOAD expect Oracle at a certain directory?*
*- Is it necessary to add something to the PATH environment variable?*
*- 32-bit Oracle client will working with the 64-bit TOAD freeware?*

If i try to make a connection:
- "No valid clients found. You need at least one 64-bit client properly configured"Listen to that message. A 64-bit program requires 64-bit libraries.
I have installed the express edition with the installer. I have first installed the Oracle express edition and later TOAD.
I'm working on my local machine with:
- windows 7 HomeHome editions are not supported, sorry.
- Oracle 32 bit client:What is it - Client or Server?
- Oracle Database 11g Express Edition Release 11.2.0.2.0 - Production>
- TOAD 64-bit freeware.Perhaps easiest way out is to remove 64-bit Toad and install the 32-bit one instead.

Questions:
- Are there certain environment variables necessary? Does TOAD expect Oracle at a certain directory?
- Is it necessary to add something to the PATH environment variable?

All these should be directed elsewhere, e.g. at some Toad forum, maybe at toadworld.com.
