Close all running programs. Click on Start Menu and then rt-click on This PC and choose Properties.   Click on “Advanced System Settings” on the left side of the window. Click on Computer Name tab. Click on Network ID button. Accept the default of “This computer is part of a business network”. Click on the Next button. Change the setting to “My computer uses a network without a domain”. Accept the default workgroup name of “WORKGROUP”. Click on Next button. Click on Finish button. Click on OK. Restart the computer.

Furthermore, these addresses will not route through the Internet. This makes them the proper choice for use in your home or company Intranet. We recommend non-routable IP for most networks. These IP addresses have specifically been set aside to use when it isn't necessary (or desirable) for anyone on the Internet to be able to instantly navigate to your computer. It is especially useful to the DSL and Cable Modem users who have multiple computers connected to a single proxy server, firewall or router. These non-routable IP addresses also provide additional security on the “Internal” side of your network. Typically a firewall, Cable Modem or DSL router will provide Network Address Translation (NAT) to translate the these nonroutable address to a real Internet routable IP address. Reserved IP Addresses for Private Networks 10.0.0.0 - 10.255.255.255 172.16.0.0 - 172.31.255.255 192.168.0.0 - 192.168.255.255 For more information on RFC 1597 click here: http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc1597.html Thu, 16 Jun 2011 12:50:00 GMT f1397696-738c-4295-afcd-943feb885714:142 https://gibs.com/Support/Knowledge-Base/ID/144/Add_Domain_Account_as_Local_User_Administrator#Comments 0 https://gibs.com/DesktopModules/DnnForge%20-%20NewsArticles/RssComments.aspx?TabID=51&ModuleID=411&ArticleID=144 https://gibs.com:443/DesktopModules/DnnForge%20-%20NewsArticles/Tracking/Trackback.aspx?ArticleID=144&PortalID=0&TabID=51 https://gibs.com/Support/Knowledge-Base/ID/144/Add_Domain_Account_as_Local_User_Administrator Start > run > Type "control userpasswords2" Click Add Put in the username and domain Click Next Select the "other" radio button Select "Administrators" from drop down menu.
