RE: /3GB switch question

Maybe want to download the MS ISA best practices analyzer and see what
it recommends?  I know on my Exchange box, the BPA did recommend the
/3GB switch.

Castelle Support

[Benjamin Zachary]

Im writing this for two reasons. After arguing in email a few times, we are
told that even though we have 2 Castelle Faxpress Premier Units (about 25k
each) we need to spend another 2000.00 to obtain a copy of the software
because they don't support it anymore so therefore Im not able to buy it I
have to buy the upgrade or locate it on my own.

Ive never been a huge fan of their product but am trying to support one that
is about 2 years old. Does anyone happen to have Faxpress Premier 3.x of
which we are licensed? Castelle told me Im welcome to get a copy from
anywhere I can find it (that's their official response).

So much for customer service

Thanks

Re: /3GB switch question

[Mike Sullivan]

It looks like it could be either good or bad depending on your setup.

http://www.microsoft.com/technet/isa/2006/perf_bp.mspx

*Using the /3GB Boot.ini Switch*

For large systems with over 2 GB of memory, Windows Server 2003 and
Windows 2000 Advanced Server offer the 4GT RAM tuning feature. This feature
divides a process memory space into 3 GB for application memory and 1 GB for
system memory. This feature enables processes to benefit from more than 2-GB
RAM in user space, and is enabled by adding the switch /3GB to the
Boot.inifile. (For details, see article Q171793, "Information on
Application Use of
4GT RAM Tuning," in the Microsoft Knowledge
Base.)


This feature may be beneficial for ISA Server, especially for reverse
caching hosting a large Web site. However, using this feature reduces the
maximum size of the nonpaged pool (to 128 MB instead of 256 MB), hence the
maximum number of concurrent TCP connections.

RE: Bluetooth, Activesync and Smartphones

[Mike Gill]

It's the internal Dell module for a slightly older Centrino laptop. I popped
in my MS USB BT dongle in a spare laptop and did some testing there with no
problems. We'll see how it goes. I'm just really supposed to see that I need
to be setting up COM ports as a layer for synchronization to occur at all.

LOL, ok - we'll stay here then!

That looks very similar to my traces (I checked from a couple
different networks).

But, the online tests that I've done that also perform service header
scanning all came back as port 25 timed out.

I'll have to tweak the firewall rules.

Oh oh o, connect failed...  meh, disregard my previous post.

I guess I would next fall back to the basics of tracing the route,
although I hit a firewall at hop 14  (68.86.228.150). Perhaps you have
a network failure before that.

RE: Favor - telnet

[Sam Cayze]

Er, that tracert command left my server from a different NAT that my my
smtp talks on.  So it's probably not a good test.

I'll have to tweak the firewall rules.

I guess I would next fall back to the basics of tracing the route,
although I hit a firewall at hop 14  (68.86.228.150). Perhaps you have
a network failure before that.

Re: Bluetooth, Activesync and Smartphones

[Micheal Espinola Jr]

LOL,

Sorry, somewhere along the line I thought you were referring to COM
port you can also configure for the BT device in WM6 - as apposed to
the COM port settings you are referring to on the PC.

OK then - what are you using for the BT dongle/device on the PC?  Is
it already configured to pair with something else?  Did you break that
pair?  I recall reading something about some devices not being able to
hold a pairing once they notice that another pairing with that device
had been established.

Dunno for sure.  My memories on that are sketchy, but it might be
something to concider.

Re: Software Auditing Tools

[Micheal Espinola Jr]

Compliance for me mostly comes down to my foot and what it will
connect to.  But honestly, I work in a smaller shop so everything here
in regards to auditing is paper and spreadsheets.

I know what's installed since it was installed by me and no one else
has permissions to do otherwise.  We are as compliant as we need to
be, fully documented.

But all this begs the question: what terms do you need to be compliant
with?  Depending on if I was held to a strict sense of complaince
obligations, my tools and reporting would definately be different.

RE: Bluetooth, Activesync and Smartphones

[Mike Gill]

Well, it's on every tutorial I've read. Also, the phone won't show
Activesync as a service unless a COM port is set up and specified on the PC
for Activesync to use. In Activesync, Bluetooth isn't an option where you
choose the COM port, and if it was all the pages I've read say not to use it
and use the COM port instead. I did notice that initially the port that
showed up was COM8, and thought Activesync is suppose to work up to COM9 I
went in an cleared out some stale entries. Since starting over with a lower
COM port and after a few restarts of the laptop and phone for testing things
seem to be working.

Yes this is what I am leaning towards...the only thing is if I install 2008

Take it from a SOX IT Governance trained auditor, SOX is a royal PITA.
Anything that adds the date AND time to the printout works for our audits.
You can use whatever you want as long as the date and time are included by
the software.  i.e. don't handwrite the date and time on the piece of paper.
I would just throw it away and put that on the exception report your boss

I am pretty sure that you can install Windows 2008 without ANY key. The
install process will simply ask you what type of Windows it is, then you
enter the key later on. If you can get hold of the ISO from somewhere then
you can install it.  

 

However the simple option would be to download the trial version from
Microsoft.com.

Re: Wireshark on a DC?

[Kurt Buff]

The network monitor tools, when installed on your DC, will capture all
 packets that your DC sees, and which are destined for it or generated
by it. They are native to the OS, and when you go to the control panel
--> Add/Remove Programs, select Add/Remove Windows Components, scroll
down to Management and Monitoring Tools, and select Network Monitor
Tools.

It's all good from there.

Wow, you just don't know how to control yourself do you?  Look at the

The two concepts are mutually exclusive.  When it comes to things like this,
my switch is on or off.  Keep putting it on, and you will get added to

Why not the native Network Monitor tools? You can use those to do a

Hi all, 
So we're heading down the path to Sox compliancy, and I was wondering
what software you use that helps generate the reports and audits for AD
usage (For example, we've got a lot of older Dl's\Security groups and
I'd like to audit there usage, and see if they can be easily removed).
So far this Sox work is pretty much a pita. 
Thanks in advance for any help!

The first man had married a woman from Illinois and had told her that
she was going to do dishes and house cleaning.
It took a couple days, but on the third day, he came home to a clean
house and dishes washed and put away.

The second man had married a woman from Georgia.
He had given his wife orders that she was to do all the cleaning,

The first day he didn't see any results, but the next day he saw it was

He told her that her duties were to keep the house clean, dishes washed,

OT: Thursday Funny: Computer gender

[Tom Strader]

A Spanish teacher was explaining to her class that in Spanish, unlike
English,
nouns are designated as either masculine or feminine.

'House', for instance, is feminine: 'la casa.'

'Pencil,' however, is masculine: 'el lapiz.'

A student asked, 'What gender is 'computer'?'

Instead of giving the answer, the teacher split the class into two
groups, male and female,
and asked them to decide for themselves whether 'computer' should be a
masculine or a feminine noun.

Each group was asked to give four reasons for its recommendation.

The men's group decided that 'computer' should definitely be of the
feminine gender ('la computadora'), because:

1. No one but their creator understands their internal logic;

2. The native language they use to communicate with other computers is
incomprehensible to everyone else;

3. Even the smallest mistakes are stored in long term memory for
possible later retrieval; and

4. As soon as you make a commitment to one, you find yourself spending
half your paycheck on accessories for it.

(THIS GETS BETTER!)

The women's group, however, concluded that computers should be Masculine
('el computador'), because:

1. In order to do anything with them, you have to turn them on;

2. They have a lot of data but still can't think for themselves;

3. They are supposed to help you solve problems, but half the time they
ARE the problem; and

4. As soon as you commit to one, you realize that if you had waited a
little longer, you could have gotten a better model.

The women won.

RE: Rotating hotswap drives for backup?

[Joseph L. Casale]

When you remove the drive, if the filesystem is mounted I think you can guess 
what state you leave it in. If your backplane is compliant you can surely 
remove a disc but there are obviously other factors. What OS has the LD mounted?

Correct. It would be a violation of the licensing terms of the MSDN media.

Morning,


Quick question.  I need to get Windows 2008 server up and running today, we
ordered a license thru our volume program, but the license key and media
download access won't be available for a couple of days.   We do have a MSDN
agreement, and have a license and media for that version.   Can I install
that media now and then change it over to our volume license when it arrives
in a couple of days?

 

Thoughts?

 

Thanks,

RAID 10 would be optimal, I guess it just boils down to how much space
he needs for his Virtuals. If he went with RAID 10 over the RAID 5
config I recommended, he'd lose an entire disk in terms of storage
capacity.

Why you think that raid 10 less redundancy then

Rotating hotswap drives for backup?

[Durf]

Hi all;

To take advantage of the Virtual Disk backup ability on a Dell MD3000i
storage box, I'd like to use a single large sata drive, and rotate it
weekly (In other words, pull the drive and hot swap).  Same concept as
a USB backup but with a technically non-removable media.

Any reason this won't work?  Wear and tear on the array?  Freakout of
the software?

Thanks,

RE: VISTA open or volume license SKU's

[Jim Majorowicz]

It's called the "Product Use Rights" document available from either your
eOpen.microsoft or licensing.microsoft website.  I know I'm going to sound
like a prick for saying this, but if you actually *READ* the documents
before you sign your agreements you'd know and understand your rights.  As
many have said before Open License agreements for Operating Systems have be
"Upgrade" only for quite some time.  Furthermore, you better read that
agreement to determine what licenses are valid to Upgrade from. It is not
valid to purchase a system with Vista HOME and assign a Vista Business
license to it, for example.  Open agreement licenses are never "tied" to the
hardware, but as someone else said, they are "assigned".  You can always
move that assignment so long as the original license on the new hardware
meets requirements.

qualifying license has to be a retail license otherwise the Vista VL is tied

  For that computer, yes.  OEM licenses are "married for life" to the
computer they are bundled with.

  My understanding is that the VL is still transferable to other
computers, but the other computers would still need an OEM or FPP
license to be legal for the VL.  SA I don't know about (don't use it).

[Keith Turgeon]

Morning,


Quick question.  I need to get Windows 2008 server up and running today,
we ordered a license thru our volume program, but the license key and
media download access won't be available for a couple of days.   We do
have a MSDN agreement, and have a license and media for that version.
Can I install that media now and then change it over to our volume
license when it arrives in a couple of days?

 

Thoughts?

 

Thanks,
Keith

RE: Is there a Dell equivelant to the HP Server Migration Pack

[Sam Cayze]

I can't think of the name of it, but I think Dell does have something...
 
And they license a lot of stuff from Altiris, so it might be related to
them, perhaps helping your search.

Virtual disk limit on Dell SAS 6/i

[Oliver Marshall]

Anyone know if there is a virtual disk limit when using SATA disks on a
Dell SAS 6/I controller? I've replaced our 160GB pair with 750GB disks
and I want to use up the spare space. However, in the physical disks
section of the Dell OMS interface it shows usable space as 0 despite
showing the disks have around 700GB of space with only 148GB used for
raid.

 

Any ideas ?

 

Olly

RE: Scanning and TS usage

I thought about that but I reckon that it would be slower than pooh over

Olly,

Can you present a UNC share to there scanners?  At my previous post I
have legal staff scanning over WAN links to a central share via TWAIN
with the only issue is sometimes I had to use the FQDN or IP address of
the server...

Hi Chaps,

 

I have a client who is an ideal candidate for moving to our TS boxes.
They need lots of upload speed for uploading legal-orientated scanned
docs to a web based line of business app. These scans are sent to them
and are fairly large. Their local exchange doesn't support anything more
than ADSL, and even bonded-adsl  is proofing pretty crappy. We can slap
them on our TS boxes and they could have access to 100mb connections and
let rip with all the PDF throwing they can handle. 

 

However, they do scan docs frequently. That's the one reason we haven't
suggested a TS based solution to them. 

 

So, while we can't help them at the mo, I thought I would ask, what are
the solutions for scanning TO a TS box from a local client? Does anyone
know of any way to get twain based scanners to send to a remote TS
server ?

 

Olly

Like Sherri said, the jokes can be applied to any party, person or
group; and they were just that, jokes.

Should they have been posted here? Maybe not, but there have been things
others have said on this list that I felt were off-color, but what the
hell, I can't change it "after the fact", so I just laugh at it and go
on with life.

Michael, try to learn to lighten up a little and stop taking things so
seriously. It will ensure a longer, less stressful life.

Hell, I voted for Clinton and thought he was a great president. He's
been a heck of a lot better than GB ever was, IMHO. I'm a registered
Republican and former US Marine and damn proud of it but for the last
few years I have been totally disgusted with the way Republicans (and
Democrats) in office have NOT taken care of this countries problems.
Seems all they are concerned about is lining their own pockets.

On the lighter side Any man that can get elected into political
office, get a BJ from a young intern while IN THE OVAL OFFICE, and then
totally deny it ever happened even in the face of actual evidence on
national TV and STILL have a following as Clinton does deserves MY vote
every time, Republican or not. HELL it's NOT SEX...right

"Sorry Sherri", just block out that last part.

Some of these last few Presidents make great role models, don't you
think? I thought Kennedy was a great speaker and President.

Some interesting reading here

http://us.history.wisc.edu/hist102/towncry/sex.html

Come on folks; take life a little less serious. I really could care less
who screws whom in politics or any other area of public life, or the
jokes that surround them, (it just makes for interesting reading).

Again, my apologies for even submitting the jokes. It's not worth all
the grief.

RE: Network drive mappings using Registry

[Mike Semon]

I think you are going to need a logon script or GPO. You can set a registry
setting for HCKU for the default profile, however, everyone is going to get

that registry setting. If you have different users needing different drive
mappings that's not going to work. Maintaining multiple mandatory profiles
also

can be an administrative nightmare. This sounds like a headache waiting to
happen. Opt for the Logon script or GPO.

Different users require different mappings, which makes this a non-starter.
And they don't want to maintain any more than one mandatory profile. They
want to import Registry keys at logon to define network drives for each
user, which will not all be the same. As I said, mad.

Here's a rather ridiculous question I need an answer to for one PITA account
-

 

Is it possible to map network drives using a Registry setting? I have one
client who wants to run everything via AppSense and this is the solution
they want, they don't want a logon script either old-style or thru GPO (mad
I know). Now I have worked out that when you map a drive it creates an entry
in HKCU\Network, but importing this key doesn't map the drive, unless you
log out and back in again, which obviously is a non-starter as they will
unload the Reg keys at logoff.

 

Is there any way of doing this or (hopefully) can I tell him it will have to
be done via GPO?
