Re: Cisco UCS
We've just had a load of UCS blades installed and VMWare is being put on them as we speak. All seems nice so far, but they won't be going into a live environment until the middle of next month.

Server and Network Monitoring packages
All I have been tasked with evaluating a number of Network and Server monitoring packages. I am looking at IpSwitch Whatsup Gold, Manage engine OpManager and Solar Winds Orion. We are monitoring about 35 servers (NT Services, Disk Space, memory, CPU) , 12 HP switches (sFlow), 2 CISCO routers (netflow), a number of hosted websites, 3 WAN Links, Firewall. From the switches and routers we would like to get an overview of who (Machine / User) is doing what and what applications are utilizing our network bandwidth. If anyone one has any comments on any of the solutions I am looking at (Or any that they feel I should look at) I would be pleased to hear them.

Re: Server and Network Monitoring packages
There are Nagios-based options where you can get support, which would be the least traumatic for you in terms of changing things around. You should also take a look at PRTG from paessler.com, which has excellent features and good pricing. You could easily be setup in 30 minutes with the 30-day trial. Other open source options (with paid support options) include Zabbix and OpenNMS.

Windows 7 question
Quick question -- is there something in Windows 7 that would prevent SpyBot from writing to the Hosts file? I cleaned my brother-in-law's laptop and tried to add the SpyBot Hosts file, but was unable to do so from within SpyBot. Eventually I just put the Hosts file from my wife's XP box on a flash drive and copied it over, but I am trying to get ready for Windows 7 here in the office and thought I'd ask. I *did*, at least, know enough to try running SpyBot as an admin, but that still didn't allow me to add the Hosts file. :( I'm suspicious, especially after reading a thread on the SpyBot SD forums, that there may still be a trace of what was infecting his computer lingering around. I've already run VipreRescue and MalwareBytes, but wanted to add the SpyBot Hosts file as an added precaution.

Re: Barracuda VoIP (Cudatel)
My prior experience with Barracuda's support organization is probably the single greatest reason I'm putting them on the list of vendors to evaluate. Price and ease of use are way up there also, of course. And speaking of ease of use, in a shop the size of mine, more and more falls under the purview of IT every day. Whatever solution we choose has got to be something I can grasp 90% of intuitively and quickly, with the rest coming through minimal formal training and support. The people at Barracuda seem to design their products with that in mind. All that said, it sure would be nice to find at least one person with hands on experience...

RE: Keyboard recommendation
True, but for the US (all due respect to other nationalities and languages, seriously), encountering anything other than a 101-key US traditional keyboard layout or the 104-key keyboard layout (with the three extra Windows keys) is HIGHLY annoying.

Regulatory/compliance solutions for account management - NetIQ/Bhold experiences?
Hi - I'm looking for experience in the field from anyone who's implemented a compliance driven access approval system. Perhaps there's a proper name for such functionality, but to explain myself, we need to have managers approve (or not) all of their staffs' access to certain relevant applications on a regular basis. The process should also provide the facility for system owners to approve privileged accounts too. I created my own system for this in a previous role using SQL, Excel and a web portal, but there are slick commercial products that appear to do this much better! A couple we're looking at are NetIQ Secure Configuration Manager and Bhold. Both appear to have the functionality we require, with quite different approaches and price points. Anyone care to share their thoughts on them, or indeed any other similar solutions? Sometimes these are part of an IDM product, which is something else we're looking into, but not as urgently as this requirement - I'm really interested in the manager approval part of the process. The current manual process I'm looking to replace is one where our Compliance Manager asks for outputs from every in-scope system and then sends emails with user lists to managers (after manually sorting in Excel) and asks them if they look right. It's very work intensive and just barely lives up to the spirit of the regulatory requirement. alan WARNING: The information in this email and any attachments is confidential and may be legally privileged.

Re: Windows 7 question
Perhaps... I don't use SpyBot anymore, so I can't comment about Win7 compatibilities, since Vista had UAC, I'd imagine that it would work that way, but I've seen more trouble with apps that worked under Vista not working under Win7, than apps working on XP not working on Win7. In general, when working with an unknown system, nuking and repaving is much faster than trying to clean out malware and then being unsure that you got it all. Is it a pain? Sure, but so is being without a computer for several hours/days and then having a nagging feeling at the back of my mind that I'm giving them a less than optimal system. Also, garage clients and friends get the, don't run as admin speech and if I nuke and repave, they get two different accounts...

I *did*, at least, know enough to try running SpyBot as an admin, but that still didn't allow me to add the Hosts file. :( I'm suspicious, especially after reading a thread on the SpyBot SD forums, that there may still be a trace of what was infecting his computer lingering around.

Re: Server and Network Monitoring packages
If you are familiar with Nagios, check out OpsView. It's Nagios but better. Easier interface, awesome plugins (like Nagvis and MRTG built in). Good documentation. Free and paid for versions available with support. I'm a total convert. One of the big things that got me was that OpsView didn't require a 4GB+ Ram dedicated server. Runs fine in a VM.

Moving Page File on Exchange Server -- Anything to look out for?
My exchange 2k3 box has it's exchange apps on C, and database and logs on other drives. The C drive is almost full. One of the things on C that I can move is the system page file. Is there anything special with moving a page file on an exchange server, anything to look out for, or just same as anything else?

Vista and printing gpp
I have Win7 machines working perfectly, the print server initially had 2008r2/win7 (x86/64) drivers installed on it. I added Vista drivers but the vista clients still say they need a driver update, and the gpp hangs them on logon if its applied? Anyone know the nuances surrounding this?

Re: Moving Page File on Exchange Server -- Anything to look out for?
I would think the only reason to keep a page file on the OS partition is if you're concerned with capturing a memory dump.
