Is the server and the client on the same machine or different ones? Are they both on the same domain? You will need to provide information regarding the setup if you would like to receive accurate answers.
The server and the client are on the same machine. I doubt that they are on the same domain, how do I check? Sorry bout that as my teacher did not teach me.
If the instructor is not teaching you, then you should probably talk to your classmates. What services do you have installed on your server? What is the exact configuration of your machine with the host operating system and guest operating systems (virtual box)? Again, what is your current configuration and what have you done so far? If you have not started yet, document everything you do, so that you can do it again if necessary.
Essentially you want both the server and any other users that you want on the same domain. The users are allowed access to the server through ADDS. Microsoft Technet is your friend. If you can tell me what you have done so far, I will try to find my documentation from my similar school project.
My teacher doesn't teach so my classmates do not know as well. I have downloaded an accounting software BS Accounting 1 in my Oracle VM VirtualBox Server 2008 and I also downloaded OpenFire, a chat program. This is all I have done so far because I have actually no idea how to proceed. I am trying to figure out how to actually use the program (Accounting and OpenFire) from my computer (Windows 8.1) by connecting it to the server.
The scenario is this: Imagine there is a server in a company and it caters for 30 employees. Each employee have a computer. They have to simply use the computer to connect the server to use the program. We have to research on 2 additional services
that are server-based for the employees (for this case, Accounting software and Chat program). In addition when internet is down, it can still be used as well.
