station and Airport Express, other than size and weight, are:
Extreme has two ethernet ports; Express has only one.  Extreme has a

to connect a USB printer and add a PC laptop via an Ethernet cable.  any

My client has a LAN at home with several Windows-based machines

would be feasible to connect the iMac he has to that same network.  Is
there's a built-in wireless NIC inside an iMac or should I buy

We have Mac OS X server running on one machine on our network and
standard OS X running on another. Its sometimes necessary to log into
the second machine for remote admin of that particular machine.
I would like to set something up so only a single copy of users

I posted not long ago about the lack of broadband in my area, despite
our proximity to a very large city.  Our community refers to the issue
as a terrain problem but somewhere along the way, for a number of
reasons, cable providers were allowed to "cherry-pick" communities,

Can I connect my iMac to the airport base station and use the built in
internal modem in the airport to dialup my isp?  there is a 56k internal
modem in the airport hub isnt there?  What other ways to connect to the
dialup isp with the new imacs?

A new Safari-specific vulnerability (which appears to affect Mail.app
as well) has been documented by the German site 'heise.de':

I've a new Airport Extreme base station and I'm using it right now to
connect to the internet with the internal modem and a 56K dialup line.

An outgoing fax "sticks" in the queue, and the Mac permanently retries
to send it. How can I delete this stuck fax document? I searched, but I
didn't find the spool queue.

I am using a Graphite airport to provide modem dial up and wireless
access through the house.  As it also has an ethernet port I would have
thought I could attach a print server to it and see it from wifi
connected Macs.  I have an old Sitecom printer server which I could use.

I've mention my internal modem woes before. (OS 10.3.9 466 mhz G4) Not
yet resolved. The short version is that the internal modem does not even
show up in "about this mac," but it works with Timbuktu, and it works in
classic. If I boot from another machine in target mode, then ...

Are there any external v.92 modems that are compatible with OS X
