Anyone using ISA pls check this for me
Hi all, I've problems checking this site www.nbad.com (National Bank of Abu Dhabi) using our ISA server. I'm still using ISA 2004. The box has also AVast of ISA and Websense on it but I confirmed its neither of those two. Now I'm suspecting maybe some issue in their website code and our ISA server. If you have ISA pls see if you can access this site. thanks Osama Salah -- Disclaimer: This communication contains information that is confidential and may also be legally privileged.

I am assuming Net II Nics since that is what just came in all the new Dell 1950 and 2950 servers. Here is the page, all the way at the bottom. The actual drivers do not contain the app, you need the Mgmt software at the bottom of the page. http://www.broadcom.com/support/ethernet_nic/netxtremeii.php Works great, turn off on each NIC the RSS and or disable the IP Chimney and performance is great.

Cool as a cucumber and displaying complete professionalism, the salesman greets the lady with, 'Good day, Madam. How may we help you today?'

When your message came through in gmail, the font was so small that I
couldn't read it - really!
I had to hit the reply button to see what you were saying.
When I selected 'view original', I see that it looks like you're using
MSFT Word as your email editor.
That's just wrong.
Below is the content of the 'view original' page in gmail, minus the

Depends on the nature of the organization. For larger organizations, or if you have lots of servers, a name based on the site, function and a number tend to be the only way to go, especially with the flat naming system Windows still uses internally. For smaller shops with the right attitude (like my current employer), I tend to go with more interesting names, with a theme. Small shops almost always have all their servers being multi-purpose. Naming everything SRV1, SRV2, and so on tends to be confusing. For example, at my current main gig, we've got TIGER, PUMA, LION, COUGAR, and NTSERVER. (Can you guess which one has the legacy app that just don't die? ;-) ) At my last main gig, we used Simpsons characters. This doesn't scale up to large orgs, though, and if the place has a stuffy attitude it's not appropriate, either. For the latter, I usually just use ORGSVR1 or whatever. RFC-1178 has some advice on this, although it's oriented more towards DNS, where the tree structure makes naming conflicts less of an issue. Currently we use location and function in the name, but what about a server that does more than one thing? Use a more generic name, like SRV or UTIL or whatever. Indeed, if it's at all likely a server will be tasked with multiple things, I always try to go with the more generic name. A server named one thing that's really doing more is misleading. Worse is when the original task then gets moved off, and now you have a server named DC1 that isn't a DC anymore, or something like that. -- Ben ~ Upgrade to Next Generation Antispam/Antivirus with Ninja!~ ~ http://www.sunbelt-software.com/SunbeltMessagingNinja.cfm ~

Re: Performance problem.
Avg Disk Queue Length isn¹t a percentage counter. The default scale is 100:1, so a DQL of greater than 1 will appear as 100%. The notes I¹ve seen in the past are that it shouldn¹t exceed 5 on a regular basis, but you should also look at your Disk Transfers/Sec. You shouldn¹t be exceeding 300 or so with the disk layout you have right now, IIRC (110 per disk, count one as unusable for RAID 5 overhead.) There are some more precise calculations available, as I know my ballparks are probably a bit off. Another thing to keep in mind is network speed. You¹re bounded on both ends by the maximum throughput of the slowest link. If your file server is on GB, but the desktop is 10MB... TCPChimney can be a killer on this.

Re: GMail goofiness
Ah, I just realized... What I sdescribed is the message/thread view.

ntbackup schemes
Hi, I've googled a little bit and I'm having a hard time to figure out which is the best scheme for our needs. First the info: - We want to have weekly backups of 4 our servers: - Exchange SBS 2003. For the time being, I just need to backup the Storage databases, not the full system, so I'm actually able to recover individual mailboxes. - SQL Server 2005 and 2000 server. Just the database information. - File share server. - Virtual server, currently running Virtual Server and VMware Server, but probably will run Vmware Server only. Our idea is to create a full backup on Monday and create differential backups in an external USB drive. Right now We won't make any rotate of USB drives, but the idea is to take the drive on monday (before the full backup) and rotate it offline. Full backups one day a week and then perform incremental backups (or differential backups - I've just seen a difference if you are backing up Exchange - I guess is the same with SQL Server - differential backups don't delete log files). However, my big concern is that if any of the incremental backups goes wrong, you lose up to the only backup that was good. I was thinking of creating an incremental backup for each day in respect to the full backup (not the previous incremental or differential backup) so I can get individual differential backups. Questions: - Is it possible to access within the differential backup the files that were created or modified that day without needing to restore the full backup? - What is the best scheme that I should use for each of the servers (differential, incremental). Is good my approach of creating an incremental (or differential) backup from the full backup of monday?
