* Dr. Internet columnist Steve Blass offers advice on remotely setting up Apple Xserve with a RAID controller * Help Desk columnist Ron Nutter offers advice on troubleshooting wireless connectivity problems* Remotely setting up Apple Xserve with a RAID controllerBy Steve BlassQ: Our recently purchased Apple Xserve system has a hardware RAID controller but no video card. We found out that the normal system setup procedure requires another Macintosh system. We don’t have another Mac, and the console serial port isn’t active. Can we complete the system setup procedure in this situation? A: It’s possible to do this with Apple Remote Desktop, but I don’t know how to turn that on from the command line so Windows VNC clients can connect.To read Steve’s response in its entirety, please go to: http://www.networkworld.com/columnists/2006/010906internet.html?rl * When the laptop keeps having wireless troubleBy Ron NutterQ: I am having a problem regarding wireless connection. I have an Intel Centrino Technology, Pentium M, IBM Thinkpad. My wireless net stops working after some time. I have to repair it again and again. But it creates a lot of trouble for me. Are there any specific settings for Intel Centrino Wireless Technology? I am using Windows XP Home Edition with Service Pack 2 Upgrade on the system. Norton Antivirus 2004 Upgraded on the system. Microsoft Anti Spyware on the system.A: Troubleshooting wireless connectivity problems can be part art and part science. Check IBM’s support web site to see if you have the latest drivers for the built in Wi-Fi card. Also, see if there are any BIOS or other updates for the motherboard or other devices in the laptop. If you have to call IBM for help on this, they will have you go through these same steps before going further.To read Ron’s response in its entirety, please go to: http://www.networkworld.com/columnists/2006/010905nutter.html?rl Related content how-to Doing tricks on the Linux command line Linux tricks can make even the more complicated Linux commands easier, more fun and more rewarding.
