FW: [ib-support] Petition to prevent war
-Original Message- From: Dimitar Selensky [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, September 19, 2001 4:22 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [ib-support] Petition to prevent war Subject: Petition to prevent war Dear friends, You may already have received this, but in case not. This is being widely circulated on many lists today. I urge you to at least go to the site and sign the petition and send it to everyone you know, even those outside the US, ASAP. Very important to do it as soon as possible. Click on the link below and you will get to the petition. - mitko Please sign The Petition at http://home.uchicago.edu/~dhpicker/petition which appeals to world leaders to be level-headed and, wherever possible, peaceful in their response to the recent attack against the United States. PLEASE FORWARD THIS MESSAGE TO AS MANY PEOPLE AS POSSIBLE, AS QUICKLY AS POSSIBLE. The signatures logged by the website above will be forwarded to leaders around the world. It is imperative that we act quickly to prevent war!!! The Petition What follows is a petition that will be forwarded to President Bush, and other world leaders, urging them to avoid war as a response to the terrorist attacks against the World Trade Center and the Pentagon this week. Please read it, sign below, and forward the link to as many people as possible, as quickly as possible. We must circulate this quickly if it is to have any effect at all, as the Congress of The United States has already passed a resolution supporting any military action President Bush deems appropriate. We, the undersigned, citizens and residents of the United States of America and of countries around the world, appeal to the President of The United States, George W. Bush; to the NATO Secretary General, Lord Robertson; to the President of the European Union, Romano Prodi; and to all leaders internationally to use moderation and restraint in responding to the recent terrorist attacks against the United States. We implore the powers that be to use, wherever possible, international judicial institutions and international human rights law to bring to justice those responsible for the attacks, rather than the instruments of war, violence or destruction. Furthermore, we assert that the government of a nation must be presumed separate and distinct from any terrorist group that may operate within its borders, and therefore cannot be held unduly accountable for the latter's crimes. It follows that the government of a particular nation should not be condemned for the recent attack without compelling evidence of its cooperation and complicity with those individuals who actually committed the crimes in question. Innocent civilians living within any nation that may be found responsible, in part or in full, for the crimes recently perpetrated against the United States, must not bear any responsibility for the actions of their government, and must therefore be guaranteed safety and immunity from any military or judicial action taken against the state in which they reside. Lastly and most emphatically, we demand that there be no recourse to nuclear, chemical or biological weapons, or any weapons of indiscriminate destruction, and feel that it is our inalienable human right to live in a world free of such arms. --- Regards, Harry Corsover [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] To unsubscribe from this group, send an email to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Your use of Yahoo!

Spam to non-existent e-mail address
I administer the e-mail server (Exchange 5.5) for my small consulting company (DJI). I am getting lots of spam mail addressed to non-existent e-mail addresses. These addresses have never been used. Some seem to be valid addresses ([EMAIL PROTECTED], or [EMAIL PROTECTED]), while others seem to be made up from some random character generator ([EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED]). I get about 30-50 of these messages per day. Naturally, they are bounced by the server, and I route them to the Administrator mailbox. Some of the bounce messages back to the sender also get bounced (mainly due to invalid addresses). Do any of you folks have this problem, and if so, what do you do about it?

It's called St Bernard Software UpDate Expert. There is an agent that runs on servers as well as workstations. The agent will query Db for updates and actually download them for you. If you like the centralized approach, you can run a console and tell what servers/ workstations get what updates. It's very cool. Please let me know if you have any more questions or would like pricing.

Hi All, Looks like Bill's mail server has a big problem and continues to send this message about Adding FTP locations. This address is banned from the list, and the topic is killed so any more email from Bill is not originating from the NTSYSADMIN list.

RE: net time
Actually, while working on this very topic today, I found out some interesting issues. My production domain is still NT4. I have my PDC and BDCs running timeserve and retrieving their time from a corporate timeserver across our WAN (they have the actual internet connection). and my users, win95, 98, and a few win2k, run a login script that does a net time \\xxx.xx.xxx.xxx /set using the ip address of our PDC. While testing a WIN2k server and workstation on a test domain, I noticed that the workstation was syncing from the DC in my test domain, but the time was way off from my production machine, so I started looking for how to sync the time from the corporate time server across the WAN. This turned out to be a fairly simple process, once I found the instructions. Run from a command line c:\net time /setsntp:xxx.xx.xxx. then cycle your windows time service. It actually writes to the registry where to look for time syncing. This worked from both the server and pro box. I pointed them both to the corp box, but could have left the pro box syncing to the DC and the DC syncing to the corp box, to minimize WAN traffic, which is probably best practice, once rolled out. Just thought someone out there might want to know, Russ Braaten, MCSE, MCP+I Actually, that is what I have always done. One of my associates pointed out the effect of just using net time /set and I couldn't answer why we got the different results. Just goes to show that browsing and NetBIOS is far from gone in W2K. *** Pete Carstensen, MCSE Senior LAN Engineer CSK Auto, Inc. 645 E.

Re: DNS Query All
Try this. try this: nslookup (return) ls -d (domain name; ie, zone.domain.com) also, after you hit the return after nslookup, if you hit ? it will give you all the options. - Original Message - From: Paul Armstrong [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: NT System Admin Issues [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, September 17, 2001 12:08 PM Subject: DNS Query All Hello All, I am trying to find out if there is a way to perform a DNS Query of all records for a domain. Is this possible? For example, for mydomain.com, if that domain has records for mail, www, etc @ mydomain.com how can I find out all of those records without actually having to know they exist?

RE: WARNING: Hacker Alert
This was probably a really stupid thing that I did. I am new to all of this stuff, but I try to be very cautious. The site that had been infected had been posted for several hours yesterday and no one had commented on it. I went to the site to see what a hacked page looked like (thinking it was along the lines of a defaced webpage like the Hacked by Chinese pages. I was never prompted to download a file, and I have the highest security for internet options (everything is disabled or prompt). I have Internet Explorer 5.01 SP2, which is not effected by the MIME exploit, W2K SP2 patched as much as possible. According to NAV, you have to be vulnerable to the MIME exploit when visiting the infected site to have the .eml file run. I downloaded the new virus definitions this morning that were not available last yesterday and scanned the computer. In the Temporary Internet Folders\Content IE5\64DIY8YA\ folder there is a file called 216.39.175[1].htm that was detected by NAV as infected with Nimra. I know this is really ignorant question, but does that mean I am infected by Nimra and that I am vulnerable to the stuff it can do? It was the only file detected as infected and NAV cleaned it. Again, I am new to this stuff and have never had to deal with having an infected file on my computers before, so I do not know if I am safe. I checked my guest account, and it is still disabled and has only guest properties. My system.ini file has not been modified recently, neither has riched20.dll files. I cannot find a load.exe. Norton says to repair html files, then reboot, and then do another scan until no files are found and to delete the text added to system.ini. In this situation, where I have an htm file in the temporary internet folder, does this stuff apply? Why is the file in the temporary internet folder marked detected as infected anyway?

FTP IIS user access
Title: Message I'm running SBS2000 and I'm trying to set up an FTP site so that users can access their folders from home. The problem is only users with Admin privileges are able to get onto the server. The error their getting is "530 User x cannot login in !Logon failure, so quitting". I'm not sure what attribute or privilege I have to assign to users to allow them in. Thanks a lot guys! Murray B Cybertech Automation http://www.sunbelt-software.com/ntsysadmin_list_charter.htm
RE: DHCP questions
Let's take a look at a possible scenario, just to make sure that I understand you. Server A has a range of say 10.0.0.1 - 10.0.0.99 Server B has a range of 10.0.0.100 - 10.0.0.199 You have a client that always uses 10.0.0.200 Since neither server has .200 in its range of addresses, it will never be able to assign it, and therefore you do not require a reservation, but only a static IP Address on the specific client. If it is a DHCP client, then you must add the address you want it to have to either of your scopes, and then create a reservation for that address. What you must avoid is a scenario where the same IP Address exists in both scopes. If both DHCP servers contain identical IP addresses within their scopes you need to redefine the scopes as it will be possible for IP conflicts to occur in that scenario (IE the same address could be handed out twice, once by each server).

Yes, there is a glitch in the installer program we used. It works fine on NT4.0 but on Win2k it appends the setup path to the exe's install path. It's fairly easy to set the searchit.exe path to c:\winnt\system32\searchit.exe and it will be fine. We'll get that fixed as soon as we get the fix for the installer.

I downloaded and installed it, and it didn't even create an executable. That's not true actually. 1. It is FREE a production copy. The link is right on the home page to the right of the dancing tools. 2. The search.exe file is in the c:\winnt\system32 directory. I didn't think it would be difficult to give something away. :0 John -Original Message- From: Givens, Mike [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, September 19, 2001 10:51 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: Help for the Nimda virus define "free" the link provided only goes to a "trail" version located in the downloads area ? -Original Message- From: John Cesta - Lists [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, September 19, 2001 9:50 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Help for the Nimda virus Previous email contained an incorrectly formatted URL.
