System Specifications

[One]

Is their ever a need to post up 'system properties' when asking questions? As fot this system , I have workstations all connected together in at least one way, However I did find a reference that things like the ASPX.NET account gets confused when their are too many config files in the VB program. YES this is abstract but I have had some problems with my computers and especially with the Machine account. I would like this system build to be more clear to friendlies' but not announce/Divulge everything to G00GLE.
How do you say what you need to say without saying IT? '?'<- Question mark, again ;)
P.S. LS, I have a Gateway machine connected with the School info so now don't get confused with my earlier 'Bashing' of E Machines (Gateway computers in disguise)

Funnily enough I am doing Networks at the moment in my course.  Picture 3 is a Star Network I think.  I'm just starting switches but is the last picture also a Star Network ?  I read switches are better than most things these days and hubs are half duplex and you have to deal with collision domains ?   Did I get anything right ?

Freddie888,
Hubs should be passive,
Routing is handled at host w/addressing
Modem is a default gateway

Collision domains, Yap you got IT right :o ;)

freddie888,
If you have a chance to come by the CCNA and the 'simulator' disk, it is worth it'weight as a reference
and guide for switches (I don't like configuring switches)

It might be a bit in depth for what I am doing, but I will keep it in mind thanks One.  :)

Networking has actually been the hardest part of the course for me, I'm more at home with programming and things like that, but it's gradually sinking in.
