Throughout the years I have come across a number of small network configurations and I'm wondering if anyone has a solid guide to share.
I've seen quite a few methods used; universal usernames and passwords throughout the network, secondary DNS being static'd to the pseudo server (workstation where the data is stored), mapped drives for networking applications "Z:\datafolder" but i've also seen "\\server\datafolder", i've seen batch files that delete and restore mapped network drives on start up. I'm just not quite sure which method is best, if anyone has a link to a guide that would be fantastic.
