I should have been a little more specific. We are just looking for a
place to host our web sites maybe 15 when all is said and done. The only
catch is that the individual designing the web sites only knows Front
Page so it would need to support Front Page extensions.

RE: Samba problem? Macintosh (Panther) can't see Windows PCs

Subject: Samba problem? Macintosh (Panther) can't see Windows PCs

I was asked to look into a client's problem where they have a mixed
environment of fairly new Macs and Windows XP boxes. Apparently a network
peer to peer sharing setup was done and one particular iMac was happily
sharing it's files and accessing Windows XP shares for several days. Then
the Mac got rebooted and after that although the XP box could read shares
from the Mac, the Mac can't seem to see the XP box. I was able to determine
that the Mac could see other Macs in the office and could ping the XP box
but clicking on the Network folder wouldn't show any reachable XP boxes. I
could see a few machines (including one PC) in the "Local" folder but none
of the machines in the Workgroup folder could be accessed. The Apple support
page mentions problems accessing PCs using Microsoft SMB shares after 10.2
and suggests mounting them by using the Finder to access the PCs using the
string smb:\\server\sharename. Anyone run across this problem?

When I got back to my office I fired up my SuSe 9.0 system and it seems to
work fine. I know that the Mac uses Samba 3.x but I was a bit confused as to
how Samba client works on a Mac. The only daemon I saw running was smbd.

I'm sure I share this trait with a lot of the folks on this list but I've
had an almost lifelong compulsion to buy books. In my case I sometimes have
2 or 3 different editions of the same technical book. I could advertise a
few of these on the list (free to the takers) but I was wondering if anyone
has any recommendations for places that might accept technical books as

It sounds like the mini-ITX form factor might be
what you're looking for.  Example:

In the latter days of MCLX we had a machine like that for
dog&pony demos at customer sites and I recall that it was

Given the responses so far it sounds like my take on the situation was
correct: you can't burn CDROMs with the software included in a basic XP Home
installation, but various 3rd-party packages are available.

I thought I'd heard that a basic XP Home setup was able to burn bootable
CDROMs as part of some sort of backup/ recovery or system imaging scheme,
which implies that at least some software on such a system knows how to make
a CDROM bootable...
 
Thanks for the feedback.

spam filters

2004-05-14 Thread Neal Richardson
I am looking for recommendations for spam filtering. The current
situation is this. Our current ISP told us that spam is our problem not
theirs (this I believe to be fair except they are hosting our email). We
are looking for some sort of a gateway/filtering system to try and stop
the hemorrhaging. 

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Re: Network problem

2003-08-29 Thread Neal Richardson
It is a  CNet dual speed hub the switch I believe is also cheap but I do 
not recall the manufacturer

Stephen Ingham wrote:

Question: What kind of Hub?

A good repeater hub will automatically turn off a port when 32 consecutive
collisions are detected. Maybe your hub doesn't have this feature or the
problem was something other than 32 consecutive collisions.
A switch or bridge will also stop all collisions and other errors from
propagating over the entire network.
Warning: Many cheap multi-port 10/100 "switches" are not true switches but
are really two repeaters plus a 2 port switch. A 10Mbit and a 100Mbit
repeater connected to all ports. The hardware will detect the connection
speed and connect it to the appropriate repeater. The switch is used to
switch between the 10Mbit and 100Mbit repeaters. But if all the devices are
connected at the same speed, then you do not have the network protection of
a true multi-port switch.

Subject: OT: Network problem
 I needed to install a small hub in part of the build that was not on 
the network. When I connected the hub to the switch from the crossover 
port the whole network came crashing to the ground and the server locked

were wired complete wrong ( The old admin made the cable).

My question is this:  Is this normal behavior to have the whole network 
go down due to a mis wired cable. I can understand the hub not working 
but to cause the whole thing to crash seams bizarre to me
