Networking Mac-PC

by dean olio . Updated 25 years, 6 months ago

I have 3 Mac’s in an office connected to a NT Server. I have two problems:

1. I don’t want these three Macs to see the server or other PC’s in the office but I do want them to see each other. Peer to peer is ideal except I want to share a DSL connection through NT. Can I set up a separate work group that will allow this to happen? What are my options?

2. All three Mac’s are in a single office, I have a netgear hub here to connect these machines. I recently have had problems with the internet connection, all three machines are set up identicly but two of the three will not connect. At first I thought it was a problem with the hub but I tried different connection arrangements and only one G3 will work. I am using DHCP here, is there another method considering the above that I can try?

I really appreciate any help I can get here. Any comments would be helpful.
