Title: RE: Securing Permissions on NT Event Log



I sent 
this earlier, but I think it got lost in the messages from 
yesterday.
 
Does 
anyone have a clue as to what causes the following event and how to keep it from 
happening?  I found the write-up in the MS Knowledge base, but it doesn't 
help much.
 
Event 
ID: 5781
Source: NETLOGON
 

Dynamic registration or 
deregistration of one or more DNS records failed because no DNS servers are 
available.
Data: : 2a 23 
00 
00   
*#.. 
I have 
two Win 2K servers acting as general-purpose servers (DNS as well) servers 
to the Internet for a number of domains.  All the DNS zones on both servers 
are AD enabled.  The DNS servers have forwarders enabled, which 
point to the DNS servers of my ISP.  The servers have dual Ethernet 
connections: One Ethernet is on a segment (209.42.32.x) which connects to the 
Internet via an SDSL line, the other is on a back-end LAN 
(10.1.x.x).  Both servers are connected to the SDSL segment and the 
back-end LAN.  Both servers are hosting web, ftp (via IIS), and one server 
is hosting mail (via Exchange 5.5).  Everything seems to be running fine, 
but the event message is troubling.

Re: Windows 2000 or Windows XP

2001-09-12 Thread James Gosnold

Sound advice regarding the setting up of a lab and I certainly intend to
put my foot down for some lab kit when asked to implement a migration for
my company.

Have run the client beta of XP a couple of times and although very
impressed with the features, feel and especially would could be the
invaluable Terminal services running on it, both of my installations ended
up in oblivion, just couldn't boot into them one day and after a few
efforts couldn't be bothered to salvage them. Probably because it was a
beta and not as stable as the released product will hopefully be.

RE: Australian Expressing Sadness + Something to think about

2001-09-12 Thread James Gosnold

Would just like to add my support from here in the UK. We are obviously
very close to the US in many ways and everybody I know, family and
colleagues alike, are shocked by the awful events of yesterday.

I hope that Bush is pragmatic in his repsonse and in finding the true
perpetrators before punishing them in the most severe manner. I certainly
feel that he will be acting on behalf of the civilised world in doing so,
obviously moreso the US but I live in London and also feel threatened by
such fanatics so I feel I am standing shoulder to shoulder with my US
friends in spirit.

As for all those biblical and Nostradamus predicitions, my own feelings
are that they are nearly as warped as those fanatics responsible for
yesterdays outrage, we are in control of our own destiny and have been
given the gift to shape it. The lunatics who committed yesterdays crime
are trying to bring us back to that 2000 year old level of Armageddon
prophecies and the like.

Condolences to you all in the US, 

James.

Strange behaviour - Armada E500

2001-09-12 Thread Francis, Marie-Andree

Good  afternoon all,

We have just purchased 2 new (a week old) Armada E500 laptops (WinNT) and
every time they're shut down, (tidily) they both run Auto check on boot up.

Was wondering if this is a motherboard problem but2 systems
simultaneously??? 

Your help would be much appreciated.

TIA

Re: Australian Expressing Sadness + Something to think about

2001-09-12 Thread Heidi Pilewski

Briefly, because life has to return to something resembling normal, I'd
like to say thanks to all those on this list who are not from the US and
are expressing condolences and outrage at these attacks.  Often, events
like this can have the effect of isolating one from the rest of the
world.  It's important to know that there are only a few extremists out
there that harbor these feelings against the U.S.  Unfortunately, not
everyone killed, especially in the World Trade Center, were U.S.
citizens.  

While I don't always agree with the foreign policy of my country, the
only thing this sort of violence achieves is more violence.  If there
are entities out there that don't like what the U.S. does, then a
dialogue must be established.  I think that the person or persons behind
this attack will find that this galvanizes the American people against
them and does little to further their issues or improve the way the US
conducts it's foreign policy.

I'm lucky in that, it appears, everyone I personally know in the world
was unharmed, but not untouched, by this attack.  My condolences go to
those who are more personally affected by this attack. 

Heidi

RE: Windows 2000 or Windows XP

2001-09-12 Thread Flanagan, Kevin

I strongly agree with the lab setup, you need more than just the DCs, you
need a fair representation of all major systems running that will have
interaction with the Domain Controllers/GCs in the new world. 


I did a 2K setup, but would wait for XP if time permits, unless you have a
very simple AD design.  XP will have some stuff that may be easier to
implement from scratch, AD replication partitioning comes to mind.



Good luck,


Kevin

Take a look at ZDNet & Eweek's reviews of XP Gold, they relaxed the WPA

Indian Expressing Sadness + God is Able

2001-09-12 Thread Ashish Kotak

I would like to express concern and support for the US from India.
Finally the world knows how sickning terrorism can be and that we have
been facing this for so long in Kashmir and other parts of India.

Even as much as we expect justice from world leaders and politics, may
we not forget the God who created the universe and who alone is able to
sustain it. True and lasting peace can only be brought into this world
by Jesus Christ.

Would just like to add my support from here in the UK. We are obviously
very close to the US in many ways and everybody I know, family and
colleagues alike, are shocked by the awful events of yesterday.

I hope that Bush is pragmatic in his repsonse and in finding the true
perpetrators before punishing them in the most severe manner. I
certainly
feel that he will be acting on behalf of the civilised world in doing
so,
obviously moreso the US but I live in London and also feel threatened by
such fanatics so I feel I am standing shoulder to shoulder with my US
friends in spirit.

As for all those biblical and Nostradamus predicitions, my own feelings
are that they are nearly as warped as those fanatics responsible for
yesterdays outrage, we are in control of our own destiny and have been
given the gift to shape it. The lunatics who committed yesterdays crime
are trying to bring us back to that 2000 year old level of Armageddon
prophecies and the like.

Condolences to you all in the US,

James.

OT? perspective of events

2001-09-12 Thread Kevin Lundy

My sympathies and thoughts go out to everyone directly affected by these
cowardly acts.  My thoughts also go out to the millions of us indirectly
affected.

Now to bring a slightly on-topic slant to the discussions - in recent months
there has been considerable debate on Carnivore (the FBI's electronic
snooping tool).  In order to increase our security, I'm sure we Americans
are going to have to give up some of our personal freedom and privacy.  As
IT pro's, has anyone's opinion of Carnivore changed?  I know if someone had
asked me the question on Monday, I was adamantly against Carnivore.  Today,
I'm willing to accept some software "black-box" scanning my email looking
for suspicious activity.

Thoughts?

BTW - just because I am initiating a slightly on topic discussion, in no way
am I suggesting that that the other threads stop.  I'm all for them.  Many
of our list members are in NY and DC.  Those who don't like the off topic
discussions - learn to use the delete key or setup a filter or rule.

Well, Carnivore is for "known" addresses -it doesn't just 
snoop all communications.  Echelon, which has been in place for quite a 
while, originally for phone conversations, is the one that will listen for 
certain words, and flag them.  Whether or not they are using Echelon (which 
is constantly said to "not exist", the British Parliment just had a vote on 
whether or not to keep denying its existance) in conjunction with Carnivore, I 
do not know.

Subject:MORNING OF HORROR

MORNING OF HORROR

By L. Neil Smith 

Special to _The Libertarian Enterpise_



 First of all, expect never to learn the truth about what happened
at the World Trade Center, the Pentagon, and elsewhere this morning of
September 11, 2001, any more than we did with regard to the murders of
Jack and Bobby Kennedy, Martin Luther King, at Ruby Ridge, Waco, or
Oklahoma City. Ambiguity and uncertainty serve far too many political
interests.

 Another certainty is that, although I'm told 50,000 people worked
in the World Trade Center, more innocent individuals will die as a
result of what the Old Media are lovingly referring to as a "lockdown"
of Manhattan and other places, than any acts of terrorism that may have
occurred. The military has just said they'll shoot down any plane they
see flying. Only one civilian plane is in the air this morning, Air
Force One; that's as grim a warning of things to come as I can think
of.

 "Collateral" deaths won't just happen as a consequence, say, of
somebody with a heart attack being unable to get to a hospital, but
whenever and wherever some dumb kid in an army uniform gets startled
by a car backfiring and starts spraying everybody and his pet poodle
with automatic rifle fire. Or to whomever the martial lawyers decide
it's safe to liquidate using this foul mess as a cover. Or, vastly
more ominously, to people in the not-so-distant future who decide they
must resist the police state that will inevitably result from these
events.

 It's extremely difficult to think coherently about long term
effects, let alone to get it all down in writing, when you learn that,
not only were hijacked commercial aircraft used to commit these
unspeakably evil acts, but that 90 passengers died helplessly in the
first plane, and others yet unnumbered may have died in subsequent
attacks. _Somebody_ has to think about it, though, or this situation
will be used to turn the Bill of Rights off forever. Depending on the
planning behind it, or who did the planning, it may already be too
late.

 All airports have been shut down today, and I shudder to think
about what flying will be like from now on. The Clintons, Schumers,
and Waxmans will try to shut down the Internet, calling it a breeding
ground for terrorism. The Bushes and Cheneys will "reluctantly" go
along.

 Rush Limbaugh will cheer them on.

 What should those who value their freedom do? Every chance you
have, from this moment on, whether it's on talk radio, or on the
letters to the editor page, on the Internet while it's still possible,
or in communication with everyone you know -- it's time for even the
most apolitical to write to senators and congressmen -- emphasize two
points:

 First, inform them that closing down the First or Second or any
other Amendment is not an appropriate response to what's happened, and
that any politician or bureaucrat in office who attempts to capitalize
on today's horrors is committing the same sort of blatantly criminal
act I've always insisted must be punished under Bill of Rights
enforcement.

 Second, these things happen to nations with imperial ambitions.
There has never been a major act of terrorism I know of that hasn't
resulted from an act of government that violated somebody's rights. The
way to keep this sort of thing from  happening again is to stop those
violations.

 Hideously enough, my new novel _The American Zone_, scheduled to
be published next November by Tor Books, begins with an act very
similar to this one, carried out to force the creation of a strong
central government in the governmentless "North American Confederacy"
that figures in so many of my books. As anybody who knows my work can
safely predict, the evil scheme doesn't work and the villains are
defeated.

 Life isn't as predictably pleasant as fiction. Happy endings are
few and far between. But it's important to act swiftly if we're to
preserve anything resembling the freedom that made this civilization
great.

 Pass the word.

RUMORS CONCERNING THE PRICE OF GAS AND LINES AT GAS STATIONS

2001-09-12 Thread Murray Freeman

For those of you who posted RUMORS of gas lines and rising prices for
gasoline, consider yourself part of OUR enemy. PLEASE, PLEASE post only
information that you personally know to be factual. So here are the facts
from the Northern Suburbs of Chicago, where our gas prices are among the
highest in the U.S. I reported yesterday that a gas station near my office
was at $2.09 for a gallon of premium on my way into work yesterday morning.
However, when I went out for lunch, the price had DROPPED to $1.99 per
gallon. After all the RUMORS yesterday and the fact that I had less than a
quarter of a tank of gas in my car, I was somewhat concerned. But at 5:00PM
that gas station near my office was STILL at $1.99 per gallon and to my
surprise, NO LINES! I figured that since I pass several gas stations on my
way home, I'd take a chance that the RUMORS were bulls**t and wait to fill
at the station near my home. Well, every gas station I passed had the same
pricing as in the morning and there were NO LINES to be seen. Finally, I
came to the gas station near my home, and the price of gas hadn't changed
and there were NO LINES, so I pulled in and filled up as usual. So for those
of you who are willing to pass rumors and join our enemies in battle, I
suggest you have an opportunity to leave the enemy and rejoin us  who are
lucky enough to live in the greatest land of all. And the way to do that is
to check the facts before posting erroneous information and contributing to
what could have been a real panic in the U.S.

This, from a  Canadian newspaper, is worth sharing.


America: The  Good Neighbor.

Widespread but only partial news coverage was  given recently to a
remarkable editorial broadcast from Toronto by Gordon  Sinclair,
a Canadian television commentator.
What follows is the full  text of his trenchant remarks as
printed in the Congressional Record:


"This Canadian thinks it is time to speak up for the  Americans as
the most generous and possibly the least appreciated people
on all the earth.
Germany, Japan and, to a lesser extent, Britain and  Italy were
lifted out of the debris of war by the Americans who poured in
billions of dollars and forgave other billions in debts.
None of these  countries is today paying even the interest
on its remaining debts to the  United States.

When France was in danger of collapsing in 1956,  it was the
Americans who propped it up, and their reward was to be  insulted
and swindled on the streets of Paris. I was there. I saw it.

When earthquakes hit distant cities, it is the United States
that hurries in to help. This spring, 59 American communities
were  flattened by tornadoes. Nobody helped.

The Marshall Plan and the  Truman Policy pumped billions of dollars
into discouraged countries. Now  newspapers in those countries are
writing about the decadent, warmongering  Americans.

I'd like to see just one of those countries that is  gloating over
the erosion of the United States dollar build its own  airplane.
Does any other country in the world have a plane to equal
the Boeing Jumbo Jet, the Lockheed Tri-Star, or the Douglas DC10?
If  so, why don't they fly them?
Why do all the International lines except  Russia fly American
Planes?

Why does no other land on earth  even consider putting a man or
woman on the moon?
You talk about  Japanese technocracy, and you get radios.
You talk about German  technocracy, and you get automobiles.

You talk about American  technocracy, and you find men on the
moon-not once, but several times-and  safely home again.
You talk about scandals, and the Americans put theirs  right
in the store window for everybody to look at.

Even  their draft-dodgers are not pursued and hounded. They are
here on our  streets, and most of them, unless they are breaking
Canadian laws, are  getting American dollars from ma and pa at home
to spend here.

When the railways of France, Germany and India were breaking  down
through age, it was the Americans who rebuilt them.
When the  Pennsylvania Railroad and the New York Central went broke,
nobody loaned  them an old caboose.
Both are still broke.

I can name you  5000 times when the Americans raced to the help of
other people in  trouble. Can you name me even one time when
someone else raced to the  Americans in trouble?
I don't think there was outside help even during the  San Francisco
earthquake.

Our neighbors have faced it alone,  and I'm one Canadian who is
damned tired of hearing them get kicked  around.
They will come out of this thing with their flag high.
And  when they do, they are entitled to thumb their nose at
the lands that are  gloating over their present troubles. I hope
Canada is not one of those."

RE: OT? perspective of events

2001-09-12 Thread Benjamin Winzenz

I don't know how I feel about stuff like that yet.  I think some of it may
be warranted (we already know that any phone conversation basically can be
recorded based on a myriad of words that are said).  I think that the same
type of thing monitoring e-mail would not be noticed by most.  I think
though, that if we were all told the extent of "spying" that the FBI already
does, legally or illegally, we probably would be shocked.  I almost think
that things like that are better off kept silent.  "what the people don't
know won't hurt them" type of attitude.  It's gonna get really interesting
for a while here.  As someone else said, we are in for a bit of a bumpy
ride.

As a side note, although I was not directly affected by the horrible acts
that took place yesterday (no relatives), we will all be affected by this
dastardly deed for a long time to come.  My heart goes out to those who have
experienced a loss.  Even today, I still am in shock at what happened.  At
the same time, let us pray that our leaders make informed and wise decisions
in the aftermath of what has happened.

My sympathies and thoughts go out to everyone directly affected by these
cowardly acts.  My thoughts also go out to the millions of us indirectly
affected.

Now to bring a slightly on-topic slant to the discussions - in recent months
there has been considerable debate on Carnivore (the FBI's electronic
snooping tool).  In order to increase our security, I'm sure we Americans
are going to have to give up some of our personal freedom and privacy.  As
IT pro's, has anyone's opinion of Carnivore changed?  I know if someone had
asked me the question on Monday, I was adamantly against Carnivore.  Today,
I'm willing to accept some software "black-box" scanning my email looking
for suspicious activity.

Thoughts?

BTW - just because I am initiating a slightly on topic discussion, in no way

updates.  My main LiveUpdate Administrator faithfully downloads updates
each and every night (according to the logs).  Now, I have two
"servers".  From each one, I can go to the "support" area (in the console)
and download definitions.  I can even "run" the update.  However, each
server (as well as all the clients) still show the old definition on the
console (as well as on the NAV client app when opened).


I went through this back in AUG, so definitions went from early AUG to
22-AUG.  That's where they are now.  From the server consoles, I jump
through all the hoops to which I am pointed to force updates to both
servers and all clients.  The consoles claim to have updated them, but I
still see 22-AUG.  Furthermore, in the NAV logs and in the W2K Event Logs,
I NEVER see update errors!


One thing more - if from one of the consoles I try to run LiveUpdate
(looking to the LUAdministrator machine) from the NAV app, it goes through
the sequence "Looking for update", etc, then when it gets to "Installing
the update", it hangs.  The hour glass stays there, and the animation
continues indefinitely.  (In the Task Manager, I do not see it running as
an app, and I can't identify it as a process.  CPU and RAM usage are
low.)  Again, no change in definition versions.


Yes, I've looked through the books and the Symantec KB.  AAARRRGGGHHH!

In downstate Champaign, IL, it is at an all-time high of $4.45 a gallon for 87 octane on N. Mattis Avenue.  Mobil Super Pantries have left all prices unchanged at around $1.77/gallon.  All others raised prices about $.20/gallon.  Gougers!

Subject: RUMORS CONCERNING THE PRICE OF GAS AND LINES AT GAS STATIONS



For those of you who posted RUMORS of gas lines and rising prices for
gasoline, consider yourself part of OUR enemy. PLEASE, PLEASE post only
information that you personally know to be factual. So here are the facts
from the Northern Suburbs of Chicago, where our gas prices are among the
highest in the U.S. I reported yesterday that a gas station near my office
was at $2.09 for a gallon of premium on my way into work yesterday morning.
However, when I went out for lunch, the price had DROPPED to $1.99 per
gallon. After all the RUMORS yesterday and the fact that I had less than a
quarter of a tank of gas in my car, I was somewhat concerned. But at 5:00PM
that gas station near my office was STILL at $1.99 per gallon and to my
surprise, NO LINES! I figured that since I pass several gas stations on my
way home, I'd take a chance that the RUMORS were bulls**t and wait to fill
at the station near my home. Well, every gas station I passed had the same
pricing as in the morning and there were NO LINES to be seen. Finally, I
came to the gas station near my home, and the price of gas hadn't changed
and there were NO LINES, so I pulled in and filled up as usual. So for those
of you who are willing to pass rumors and join our enemies in battle, I
suggest you have an opportunity to leave the enemy and rejoin us  who are
lucky enough to live in the greatest land of all. And the way to do that is
to check the facts before posting erroneous information and contributing to
what could have been a real panic in the U.S.

Hi,

Does anyone know of a way to let regular users (non administrators) change

Basically my laptop users travel to offices which do not all use DHCP hence
require manual IP change. I am able to use netsh to change the IP but this
requires admin rights which I do not want to do.

For all of your arguments to prevail  you must accept the premise that both

Subject: A few thoughts on today's events


First:

Thanks to those outside of the US who have expressed concern and support. It
is much appreciated. I don't live anywhere near NYC, but as a US citizen and
a simple human being I am distraught by these events, and wish the best for
those who've been affected.

As usual, people across America have mostly responded by trying to comfort
and care for those who have been directly affected by the attack. It's not
for nothing that citizens of the US are known as the most generous in the
world, and the most practical.

Erik Goldoff's forwarded post from his IT director is spot on, and also much
appreciated.



Second:

It does not matter, in some senses, who did this. What matters is why it
happened. While steps do need to be taken to detect and punish the
perpetrators, this problem will not fade simply because the US will have
(probably) killed whoever did this. In many places across the world, the US
is hated, and with reason. The US government has since World War II been
instrumental in destabilizing many democratically elected regimes, and has
sided with tyrants and dictators, so long as they supported US foreign
policy, or were willing to be puppets. The main target for many years was
Communism, although after the Berlin wall fell the focus changed, and has
continued to change, to whatever enemy of the day is fixated upon.

Cuba, Iraq, Iran, Syria, North Korea, Afghanistan, Osama bin Laden, PFLP,
DFLP, etc., etc., etc. are all targets now, but whether now or in the past,
the US government has pursued its ends with means that are not in keeping
with the stated values that most Americans cherish and profess to believe.

American foreign policy has tried to direct events and attitudes across the
world, but it has often not had a coherent aim, usually trying simply to
keep a lid on various situations, or trying to reward those who have toed
our line. Its overseas agenda has been chaotic, perverse and inexplicable.
We will suffer more for it.

The easiest example is right now the most relevant - Israel and the
Palestinians.

I won't try to say who is right or wrong in that conflict, but suffice it to
say there is blame enough for both sides, and the US government has been
neck-deep in it. Worse, the US government has sent conflicting signals since
the beginning.

It's overly simplistic to say that we are hated because we have tried to be
the world's policeman. If we were only that, we would have far fewer
problems. The problem is that we are the corrupt cop on the world beat;
sometimes meddling where we shouldn't, sometimes turning a blind eye where
we shouldn't, often picking on the wrong party in a conflict, and in general
being ham-handed and incompetent in the patrolling of our self-appointed
rounds and the execution of our self-appointed duties.

I'll make one last point here, which has been stated elsewhere - I don't
believe that you can find a large terrorist attack anywhere that wasn't
sparked by some long-standing pattern of government interference where it
wasn't wanted and wasn't justified. If the US government hadn't elected
itself the world's policeman, this wouldn't have happened. Still on point,
if the US government hadn't been such a corrupt cop, this probably wouldn't
have happened, although it possibly might still have. That's harder to
discern. Whether or not we should be the world's policeman is a separate
matter, but if we must be, we should be a good cop, not a bad cop.


Third:

The fallout from this outside of realm of the immediate (i.e., our
military/political response to the actual attack) is going to take a long
time to see. Economically speaking, the WTC housed some really influential
firms, and major offices for many more. People are worrying about gas
prices, among other things. You should be aware that fluctuations in
commodity prices will fluctuate for a while, and that gold and oil prices
will rise for a while - mainly because they are real stores of value, and
are, er, liquid assets.

Longer term, there may be flight of capital from the US because of loss of
confidence in the security of the country. Or not. There may be serious
erosion of civil liberties. Or not. I'd bet on the former in each case, but
I hope for the latter. However, I believe that that the longer-term effects
will be

I read about this.  It's a NT box running a kinda "Sniffer" software.
I have used sniffer, the log gets incredibly big in a short period of time.
So, the idea of scanning an ip address or email header for certain patterns
would only be possible.
Wiretaps are common, but you can only monitor so many phones at a time.
Same here with email and this Carnivore black box.  So you ask yourself, are
you doing something to be afraid of?
If not, then why worry, sniffer doesn't work well on switched networks and

I don't know how I feel about stuff like that yet.  I think some of it may
be warranted (we already know that any phone conversation basically can be

type of thing monitoring e-mail would not be noticed by most.  I think
though, that if we were all told the extent of "spying" that the FBI already
does, legally or illegally, we probably would be shocked.  I almost think
that things like that are better off kept silent.  "what the people don't
know won't hurt them" type of attitude.  It's gonna get really interesting
for a while here.  As someone else said, we are in for a bit of a bumpy

As a side note, although I was not directly affected by the horrible acts
that took place yesterday (no relatives), we will all be affected by this
dastardly deed for a long time to come.  My heart goes out to those who have

RE: OT? perspective of events

2001-09-12 Thread Narkis, John

First of all I would like to express my heartfelt sadness for those who lost
friends, family and collegues to this disaster. May it be a reminder to all
Americans and other democratic countries around the world that there is a
REAL threat to freedom and capitolism, and the need for a strong military
presence is necessary, for no other reason that to be used as a deterrant
for such activity in the future. May we also not forget the loss of military
personel in the Pentagon, who by the nature of thier job put themselves at
risk everyday to defend us against these kinds of threats. While they may
not have been able to forsee this attack, who can know how many countless
attempts were foiled by our intelligence agencies. May we all stand united
behind our president and country to see us through such a horrible and
devistating tragedy. While everybody agrees that some sort of response is
warranted, let us not forget that part of the responsibility of being the
only superpower in the world carries the burden of not responding in the
same cowardly fashon. We need to have a swift and deliberate response to
this, but also be sure that those who are targeted are those who are
responsible. America has to display discipline in this kind of situatuion
not a knee jerk reaction that would reflect the acts of a 3 year old having
a tantrom.

As for mail sniffing I am in total opposition to this kind of technology to
be in use. This steps on the very fringes that makes this country free. The
thing that worries me the most is the ramifications of such systems being in
use, it could easily be turned against us if they were to fall into the
wrong hands. It "could" also lead to unwarranted harrassment for those that
are undeserving. Just as in military operations, I'm sure that if email was
used as a tool for communications to coordinate something like what happened
yesterday, I'd bet that cryptic messages were sent between parties that were
involved so that even if there were a method in place to ping on key words,
that kind of traffic would probably never be caught. I would also suspect
that even if messages were intercepted, the amount of time and resources
necessary to read them, figure out if it's real or not and then react on it
will most likely be to late.

No matter how you look at this those who are determined to do things as we
all witnessed yesterday will stop at nothing. It is very difficult to defend
against that kind of determination, especially when the idea is to take as
many lives a possible as a result.


One other note.. Gas prices here have remained stable, 

1.30 for 87
1.41 for 89
1.52 for 93

May God console those in thier loss and bless this country as we deal with
this tragic course of events. Admist all this devistation and destruction is
was nice to see those out there helping each other where they can.

Cannot Get Connected Via VPN

2001-09-12 Thread Robert Jackson

Hi All,

I have a situation where we have remote users dialling an ISP to get onto
the Internet before using a PPTP VPN dial-up connection to gain access
to a Terminal Server running various applications. The problem I currently
am experiencing is that during the attempted connection to the VPN, the
following error occurs:-

'Error 629 you have been disconnected from the computer you dialled'. Once
at this point we have found that re-booting the remote pc/laptop sometimes
allows the user to log into the VPN.

Has anyone experienced this particular problem? If so could you shed some
light on possible causes and resolutions?

A guy in our office (little rock, AR) got a call from a friend who owns
a gas station, saying that Texaco HQ had sent out messages to prepare
for a price change to take effect as early as this afternoon, and to
expect the price to be at least double current.

20 min later (10 min ago) our secretary gets a call from her husband
reporting that gas lines are around the corner at over 7 stations he's
tried to stop at, 2 stations had already posted "no gas left" signs and
that the avg price he's seen so far is $5 per gallon.

Hi All,

I have a situation where we have remote users dialling an ISP to get onto
the Internet before using a PPTP VPN dial-up connection to gain access
to a Terminal Server running various applications. The problem I currently
am experiencing is that during the attempted connection to the VPN, the
following error occurs:-

'Error 629 you have been disconnected from the computer you dialled'. Once
at this point we have found that re-booting the remote pc/laptop sometimes
allows the user to log into the VPN.

Has anyone experienced this particular problem? If so could you shed some
light on possible causes and resolutions?

RE: NewYork Terrorist Attack

2001-09-12 Thread Jang Man

That's true. Americans have saved our european butt many times, most notably in WWI 
and WWII. And deserve all credits for that. And deserve all help they need from rest 
of us.
 
It's not simply black and white world with good and bad guys. And I also agree with 
Kevin's observations in his Perspective of events thread. Power and strenght has been 
misused many times. Many people see USA as evil empire which is responsible for world 
injustice and exploatation. But America didn't invent current monetary and economic 
system. America is just taking advatage of this system to it's fullest potential and 
this is called bussiness. So many people don't think there is something wrong, because 
they are just doing bussiness.
 
It's rooted in 18th century and was established by British empire while it was 
dominant force in the world. One of Rotschilds said at that time something like "I 
don't care who is in power as long as I controll the bank". He, who issues the money, 
has all the power over the rest, by controlling interest rate and value of money.
 
One economist predicted WWII in year 1918, just after end of WWI. Greater ad more 
devastating war will occure in less than 25 years if we don't radically change current 
monetary system. And it happend in less than 25 years.
It's a flaw by design. It's like house made of playing cards. We can't make this world 
better place to live while based on current economic foundations. There will always be 
huge differences, rich and poor and struggle and tensions based on national/religious 
and other excuses. But basically, it's economic struggle. 
 
I don't see bright future here. For many years I feel like I am living at the end of 
Roman empire and just observing it's inevitable end. I hope I am mistaken.

Conversation: NewYork Terrorist Attack
Subject: Re: NewYork Terrorist Attack


This, from a Canadian newspaper, is worth sharing. 
 
 
America: The Good Neighbor. 
 
Widespread but only partial news coverage was given recently to a 
remarkable editorial broadcast from Toronto by Gordon Sinclair, 
a Canadian television commentator. 
What follows is the full text of his trenchant remarks as 
printed in the Congressional Record: 
 
 
"This Canadian thinks it is time to speak up for the Americans as 
the most generous and possibly the least appreciated people 
on all the earth. 
Germany, Japan and, to a lesser extent, Britain and Italy were 
lifted out of the debris of war by the Americans who poured in 
billions of dollars and forgave other billions in debts. 
None of these countries is today paying even the interest 
on its remaining debts to the United States. 
 
When France was in danger of collapsing in 1956, it was the 
Americans who propped it up, and their reward was to be insulted 
and swindled on the streets of Paris. I was there. I saw it. 
 
When earthquakes hit distant cities, it is the United States 
that hurries in to help. This spring, 59 American communities 
were flattened by tornadoes. Nobody helped. 
 
The Marshall Plan and the Truman Policy pumped billions of dollars 
into discouraged countries. Now newspapers in those countries are 
writing about the decadent, warmongering Americans. 
 
I'd like to see just one of those countries that is gloating over 
the erosion of the United States dollar build its own airplane. 
Does any other country in the world have a plane to equal 
the Boeing Jumbo Jet, the Lockheed Tri-Star, or the Douglas DC10? 
If so, why don't they fly them? 
Why do all the International lines except Russia fly American 
Planes? 
 
Why does no other land on earth even consider putting a man or 
woman on the moon? 
You talk about Japanese technocracy, and you get radios. 
You talk about German technocracy, and you get automobiles. 
 
You talk about American technocracy, and you find men on the 
moon-not once, but several times-and safely home again. 
You talk about scandals, and the Americans put theirs right 
in the store window for everybody to look at. 
 
Even their draft-dodgers are not pursued and hounded. They are 
here on our streets, and most of them, unless they are breaking 
Canadian laws, are getting American dollars from ma and pa at home 
to spend here. 
 
When the railways of France, Germany and India were breaking down 
through age, it was the Americans who rebuilt them. 
When the Pennsylvania Railroad and the New York Central went broke, 
nobody loaned them an old caboose. 
Both are still broke. 
 
I can name you 5000 times when the Americans raced to the help of 
other people in trouble. Can you name me even one time when 
someone else raced to the Americans in trouble? 
I don't think there was outside help even during the San Francisco 
earthquake. 
 
Our neighbors have faced it alone, and I'm one Canadian who is 
damned tired of hearing them get kicked around.

Mr. Dionne,

Do you actually believe everything that you've just written?

Especially these sections:

Many times details of the politics behind situations are kept quiet, but
overall I think we are given the straight scoop by government and the media.
It is always good to question what we are told, and our press does that very
well.

I adamantly disagree that we are the bad cop on the beat.  Many look upon
the US badly because of our status in the world.  We are active and support
American Interests around the world to protect ourselves, as well as foster
world peace and stability.  Using the phrase "under the yoke of the US" is
propaganda.  We have no national purpose of holding other nations down for
powers sake.  There is no yoke of the US.

Sir, with all due respect, you are either sheltered from life itself and
don't get out much.  Or you're too young to be involved in a discussion like
this.  But you're definitely uninformed if you dismiss all of Mr. Buff's
comments as "X-file-ish."

Mr. Dionne, do you why the US bombed Japan during WWII?  Sir, do you know
the real reason we went to the defense of Kuwait?

I am not going to get into a debate with you about these things.  A simple
yes or no will suffice with me.  As I respectfully do not place much
credence in an Americans' opinion (yours), who appears to be blinded with
'love of his country.'

Kurt,

US foreign policy over time fluctuates due to the differing opinions of the
political party who happens to be in power and to some degree of public
opinion.  Your characterization of events in the past are almost
"X-File-ish."  Sure US policy has not always been correct, we make mistakes
like every other country. Fighting the Soviet Union we had to sometimes
choose stability over more democratic opposition.  Your comments imply some
sort of conspiracy in hiding or coloring historical events like JFK, etc.
Many times details of the politics behind situations are kept quiet, but
overall I think we are given the straight scoop by government and the media.
It is always good to question what we are told, and our press does that very
well.

We support Israel because it is the right thing to do.  But, we also support
a Palestinian state.  It is up to them to come to terms however.  In the
modern world the US has to be engaged in the world or pay the consequences.
This means making decisions on what governments to support, taking or not
taking military action, etc.  In general the US government and it's people
(us) support and respect the world's diversity.  We may preach, but we do
not conquer.

I adamantly disagree that we are the bad cop on the beat.  Many look upon
the US badly because of our status in the world.  We are active and support
American Interests around the world to protect ourselves, as well as foster
world peace and stability.  Using the phrase "under the yoke of the US" is
propaganda.  We have no national purpose of holding other nations down for
powers sake.  There is no yoke of the US.

I know there are points of view at odds with the United States, but we have
to stand up for our interests and principles.  The bottom line is we cannot
please everyone, but we have to make the effort to live with everyone in the
world.  Being strong and outspoken in the world, is enough of a cause for
other nations and peoples to be resentful of the US. The major cause of
today's events is the clash of Western and Islamic culture.  There should be
room enough for all of us.  But it is not the United States who is turn this
into an "us against them" argument.  In fact the political use of "Jihad"
really does a great disservice to Islam.

What it comes down to is we must fight for freedom, even if it appears we
are the bully of the world.  Just imagine the current government of China
were in charge, and see who would complain than.

RE: OT? perspective of events

2001-09-12 Thread John Hanks

There are a number of problems you leave out. First, I have sniffed a
switched network before and it is not that hard. You need only overflow
a switch with more bogus MAC addresses than it can handle and suddenly
you have a hub. Even without any effort my snort box picks up loads of
traffic it "shouldn't" behind two switches. You can probably assume you
are safe from sniffing behind a router, unless there is a compromised
box behind it with you.

Second, you may have plenty to be afraid of. If someone sends you an
html mail with a linked image from a child porn site, by having it open
by accident in a preview window you could suddenly be catogorized as a
child porn viewer by some automatic tool. I have had several very
disturbed and concerned users contact me about incidents like this with
html mail.

I have no worries about reactions to this tragedy as I beleive that the
vast majority of indivuals have good intentions even if their actions
aren't perfect. What I worry about are overreactions. I woke up today
much angrier than I was yesterday and I can think of some pretty
horrible overreactions that I might be willing to support in the
aftermath of the attacks. One can only hope that the leaders of my
country and others have a better handle on their emotions than the
general population.

RE: Attack and Gas Prices

2001-09-12 Thread Patrick Smallwood


OK,

As far as I know, there were no refineries hit yesterday (yes, this is the
little picture). Any dramatic increase in prices, as already mentioned, can
only be considered price gouging. Surely these stores are small ones owned
by people who are looking to take advantage of this tragedy?? Who owns
them? I cant imagine Chevron/Texaco/Mobile doing this (not that they
wouldn't in a different circumstance).

If gas does goes that high, I will no longer be taking my laptop home at
night, because I will be riding to work. I refuse to support such anti
American activity...Plus it will force me to ride my bike more...

This, from a Canadian newspaper, is worth sharing.


America: The Good Neighbor.

Widespread but only partial news coverage was given recently to a
remarkable editorial broadcast from Toronto by Gordon Sinclair,
a Canadian television commentator.
What follows is the full text of his trenchant remarks as
printed in the Congressional Record:


"This Canadian thinks it is time to speak up for the Americans as
the most generous and possibly the least appreciated people
on all the earth.
Germany, Japan and, to a lesser extent, Britain and Italy were
lifted out of the debris of war by the Americans who poured in
billions of dollars and forgave other billions in debts.
None of these countries is today paying even the interest
on its remaining debts to the United States.

When France was in danger of collapsing in 1956, it was the
Americans who propped it up, and their reward was to be insulted
and swindled on the streets of Paris. I was there. I saw it.

When earthquakes hit distant cities, it is the United States
that hurries in to help. This spring, 59 American communities
were flattened by tornadoes. Nobody helped.

The Marshall Plan and the Truman Policy pumped billions of dollars
into discouraged countries. Now newspapers in those countries are
writing about the decadent, warmongering Americans.

I'd like to see just one of those countries that is gloating over
the erosion of the United States dollar build its own airplane.
Does any other country in the world have a plane to equal
the Boeing Jumbo Jet, the Lockheed Tri-Star, or the Douglas DC10?
If so, why don't they fly them?
Why do all the International lines except Russia fly American
Planes?

Why does no other land on earth even consider putting a man or
woman on the moon?
You talk about Japanese technocracy, and you get radios.
You talk about German technocracy, and you get automobiles.

You talk about American technocracy, and you find men on the
moon-not once, but several times-and safely home again.
You talk about scandals, and the Americans put theirs right
in the store window for everybody to look at.

Even their draft-dodgers are not pursued and hounded. They are
here on our streets, and most of them, unless they are breaking
Canadian laws, are

Access 2000/Win 2kPro combination

2001-09-12 Thread Charles Whitby

(If this is OT a bit, please direct me to the right group.)

I have an Access 2000 database used by several people that resides on an NT4
Server.  Some of its tables are linked to tables in another database on
another NT4 server.  Users on desktops using Win98 can access and add
records to the database with no problems.  Users on W2K machines get the
message "MS Access has generated errors and will be closed by Windows.  You
will need to restart the program. An error log is being created."

Running the rebuild/compact utilities didn't help.  

Anyone have any suggestions? (and, by the way, anyone know where those
"error logs" might be?)

2001-09-12 Thread Richard McClary

Nice to know we are still willing to assist those that send out 12-line 
disclaimers on their mail!

Anyway, the "local" vs "domain" is probably not the issue here.  Making Joe 
User a local admin should keep the domain recourses "safe".  However, he is 
still free to cause serious damage to the local machine, and I believe this 
is the concern of the original post.

A local "account manager" can add a workstation to a domain and remove it 
afterward.  Might an account manager be able to change IP information as 
well (or could it be granted under advanced user rights)?

'Error 629 you have been disconnected from the computer you dialled'. Once
at this point we have found that re-booting the remote pc/laptop sometimes

Has anyone experienced this particular problem? If so could you shed some

>> We all won the war...

>> We all lost people in WWII.

The point being here that until America entered into the fray, it was not boding well 
for ALL of Europe.  Numerous countries were defeated and had already surrendered.  
Yes, we all won the war, but we all weren't responsible for that win as many of the 
"teams" had already left the playing field.  And it obviously wasn't going well before 
America got involved.  This goes back to the point that America does care about it's 
"neighbors".  "We all won the war..." seems a little flippant and not in understanding 
with what was going on at the time.  I can tell you that we WEREN'T all winning the 
war until America came over and gave it's kids for foreign soil.  Europeans were 
fighting to protect themselves.  Americans were fighting for Europeans, our 
"neighbors".  To now say that we wouldn't care if this (the terrorist attack) had 
happened anywhere in the world  is just silly.

>> To take credit for winning it, that seems a bit shallow. Just 
>> a thought.

Unless you really did and then to have those that you saved claim otherwise seems 
equally so.  Just a thought.

Thanks, I don't hope for the whole thousandfold thing, but I wouldn't mind seeing us 
turn our back on some of the countries that we have saved in the past, that are now 
celebrating our crisis.  If you kill ben Laden, another will take his place.  This 
country and this world must change drastically (and with some help from our imaginary 
friend) to prevent things like this.  I am all for punishing the ones that did this, 
but I would like us to focus equally on preventing it in the future.

However, my family that was up there didn't die though, so I might feel differently if

Hi All,


I have a situation where we have remote users dialling an ISP to get onto
the Internet before using a PPTP VPN dial-up connection to gain access
to a Terminal Server running various applications. The problem I currently
am experiencing is that during the attempted connection to the VPN, the
following error occurs:-


'Error 629 you have been disconnected from the computer you dialled'. Once
at this point we have found that re-booting the remote pc/laptop sometimes
allows the user to log into the VPN.


Has anyone experienced this particular problem? If so could you shed some
light on possible causes and resolutions?



TIA,
Rab.

they provided equipment to the British, but Europe was on it's own until

RE: "RUMORS" CONCERNING THE PRICE OF GAS?

2001-09-12 Thread John Hornbuckle

I think some conservatives would say that it's not the government's
position to tell a vendor what he can or can't charge for his products
or services. If a vendor chooses to charge obscene rates, he should have
the freedom to do so. By the same token, consumers have the freedom to
never spend a single penny with that vendor again--thus driving him out
of business as punishment for his foolish pricing move. A conservative
might argue that we can protect ourselves in this situation by voting
with our wallets, and that we don't need government to step in and do it
for us.

That's true. Americans have saved our european butt many times, most notably
in WWI and WWII. And deserve all credits for that. And deserve all help they
need from rest of us.

It's not simply black and white world with good and bad guys. And I also
agree with Kevin's observations in his Perspective of events thread. Power
and strenght has been misused many times. Many people see USA as evil empire

which is responsible for world injustice and exploatation. But America
didn't invent current monetary and economic system. America is just taking
advatage of this system to it's fullest potential and this is called
bussiness. So many people don't think there is something wrong, because they
are just doing bussiness.

It's rooted in 18th century and was established by British empire while it
was dominant force in the world. One of Rotschilds said at that time
something like "I don't care who is in power as long as I controll the
bank". He, who issues the money, has all the power over the rest, by
controlling interest rate and value of money.

One economist predicted WWII in year 1918, just after end of WWI. Greater ad
more devastating war will occure in less than 25 years if we don't radically
change current monetary system. And it happend in less than 25 years.
It's a flaw by design. It's like house made of playing cards. We can't make
this world better place to live while based on current economic foundations.
There will always be huge differences, rich and poor and struggle and
tensions based on national/religious and other excuses. But basically, it's
economic struggle.

I don't see bright future here. For many years I feel like I am living at
the end of Roman empire and just observing it's inevitable end. I hope I am
mistaken.

RE: OT? perspective of events

2001-09-12 Thread Eric Brouwer

I, for one, would be willing to trade in some conveniences, but not
freedoms.  I would be totally fine with MUCH more heightened security at
airports.  Do you realize it is LEGAL to carry a knife with a 4" blade onto
a plane???  Because of people with pocket knives, my plane could get
hijacked.  I don't accept that.  On several occasions as I traveled,
security did not check what I put in the little dishes as I go through the
metal detector's.  I am asthmatic, and often carry an inhaler.  I could have
been mace, and I could have gotten it on board.  Delaying passengers even an
hour or two for every flight due to increased security checks is not much in
my mind to reduce the risk of this ever happening again.  Anywhere.

Andrew is absolutely correct.  We should not give up even small measures  of

Hi All,

I have a situation where we have remote users dialling an ISP to get onto
the Internet before using a PPTP VPN dial-up connection to gain access
to a Terminal Server running various applications. The problem I currently
am experiencing is that during the attempted connection to the VPN, the
following error occurs:-

'Error 629 you have been disconnected from the computer you dialled'. Once
at this point we have found that re-booting the remote pc/laptop sometimes
allows the user to log into the VPN.

Has anyone experienced this particular problem? If so could you shed some
light on possible causes and resolutions?

RE: Australian Expressing Sadness + Something to think about

2001-09-12 Thread John Hornbuckle

On top of Revelation, the book of Daniel also makes for an interesting
read.

I'm not going to use this forum (or my employer's time) to proselytize.
I would just encourage those who do not believe that the Bible is the
word of God to maybe reconsider when Israel becomes involved in an
all-out war in the Middle East. If I'm wrong and the war never happens,
you can thumb your nose at me and laugh. But if I'm right and the war
DOES happen, grab yourself a Bible and start reading it with the state
of mind that it may not just be a book full of fiction after all.
Intellectuality and faith are not mutually exclusive.

That's all I'm going to say on the matter, so please withhold the flames
(unless you want to send them to me personally off the list).

Would just like to add my support from here in the UK. We are obviously
very close to the US in many ways and everybody I know, family and
colleagues alike, are shocked by the awful events of yesterday.

I hope that Bush is pragmatic in his repsonse and in finding the true
perpetrators before punishing them in the most severe manner. I certainly
feel that he will be acting on behalf of the civilised world in doing so,
obviously moreso the US but I live in London and also feel threatened by
such fanatics so I feel I am standing shoulder to shoulder with my US
friends in spirit.

As for all those biblical and Nostradamus predicitions, my own feelings
are that they are nearly as warped as those fanatics responsible for
yesterdays outrage, we are in control of our own destiny and have been
given the gift to shape it. The lunatics who committed yesterdays crime
are trying to bring us back to that 2000 year old level of Armageddon
prophecies and the like.

Condolences to you all in the US, 

James.

Re: ADSL query

2001-09-12 Thread Gareth Campling

Hi Brian,

the biggest thing to remember is ADSL in the UK has the 256K limit on
upload stream and contention ratio of 20:1 where as leased line having
conetion of 1:1, Public Ips are availble i got 8 out of  UK ISP at a
old employer at a struggle they really only want to give u 2-4
address)

hope this helps but if cost is not a big issue i would go with leased
line u'd thankyour self in the long term
