RE: SBS 2003 to 2011
I have done two SBS2003 -- SBS2011 swings via the sbsmigration method (17 users at one site, 55 at the other) and highly recommend this method. If unsure of the inherited SBS2003 environment the new domain method might be the better way. Either way it's a lot of work, one of them has you disjoining/rejoining machines and re-creating user accounts, groups and passwords, etc. the other has you making sure the source environment is sound enough to do the swing.

R: SBS 2003 to 2011
Las MS Migration doesn't require disjoining and rejoining machine, and if you were the builder of the 2003 domain and run the BPA with no errors and warning it looks to me should be faster because you have no machines to build.

Re: 2008R2 firewall ... grr.
Don't stop the firewall in 2008r2, bad things happen (like networking stops). Control it via policy or cmdline (netsh). http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee126090(v=WS.10).aspx [image: Important]Important Because the Windows Firewall service applies service hardening rules to standard Windows networking services, do not disable the firewall by stopping the Windows Firewall service. Instead, use the Windows Firewall Group Policy setting. Stopping the Windows Firewall service is not supported by Microsoft®.

I notice on some Windows 2008 R2 boxes, which have the Windows firewall enabled by default, and in some cases, the firewall settings are managed by group policy, if I STOP the Windows Firewall service (from services.msc), the server is no longer accessible on the network. Can't ping it, can't do anything. I also cannot turn it off from Control Panel - Windows Firewall, because the firewall settings are managed by group policy. I find it odd that stopping the WIndows Firewall service, causes the machine not to be accessible at all. Is that typical?

RE: Straight Talk mobile service
Actually I'm split in regards to that as well. I've got 3 phones on the plan. Me and my wife both have iPhones and my daughter just has a regular phone (no data plan), but wants an iPhone. My wife's contract has another 11 months to go, but me and my daughter are past the 2 year mark on our contract. Here are my initial calculations. Staying on the current plan with ATT: Total cost over the next 2 years: $4488 Switching over to Straight talk: Total cost over the next 2 years (based on pre-paying yearly for each plan): $3768 This includes the cost of early termination fee, new SIM cards, and the cost of purchasing a refurbished iPhone for ~$350. Also gives my daughter a data plan. Kills me that I'm paying this much for phone service. Very eye opening. One thing that would also cut into the cost savings is if I want to get a new iPhone when the 5 eventually comes out ( this fall? ). Still looks like I'll save on the straight talk plan no matter what.

Re: odd connectivity problem with PC.
Client is local to the DC (server1). its on the same subnet. I also tried uninstalling and reinstalling Client for Microsoft Networks, verifying TCP/IP Netbios Helper service is running, verified Computer Browser service is running, verified Routing and Remote Access service is stopped. (had the user go through these with me on the phone...) Running out of ideas. lol. I don't think anything can ping the PC (yes, Windows Firewall is definitely disabled) though I only tried pinging it from Server1 and from my PC while VPN'd in. Yet, the PC can definitely ping everything else, and even access the internet. I can't access the PC remotely obviously so I'm now headed to the customer to be on-site. Why the PC can't access network resources or join the domain, I'm stumped. In my car I go!

RE: Straight Talk mobile service
We have a company here called Metro PCS. Not sure if they're national or not. You have to purchase the phones, but their plans are unlimited: Unlimited talk, text and web. For smartphones, they start at $50/month. There's no limit to the data, but I think they slow you down a bit after around 2GB or so. Doesn't look like they have iPhones, though. Only Android in the smartphone arena. They do offer 4GLTE though.

RE: Straight Talk mobile service
My family has two StraightTalk phones. We love them! StraightTalk uses ATT, Verizon and Sprint networks. Phones with model numbers that end in C are Verizon phones. Model numbers that end in G are ATT phones. Their Android phones are Sprint. They are now selling SIM cards so you can bring your own GSM phone. For some reason, they do not allow Blackberries. If you want a Verizon phone, enter a zip code for a city that doesn't have good ATT coverage when you are on the StraightTalk web site (Fargo, ND is good). It will warn you that your usage area is different than your shipping zip, but it will still work. The only thing I've found negative is that my ATT microcell won't let my daughter's ST GSM phone connect, even though it is a 3G model. I've seen lots of reports on the Internet where people have gotten 3G ST phones to connect, but no joy in my case.

OT: recommendations for Bluetooth stereo headset that multi-pairs and is not an earbud?
Lot of conditions, I know. :-) But I'm looking for a *stereo* BT headset, that I can pair with both my Android phone and my iPad2. (most of the time I will be listening to music through it, but if a call comes in on the Android phone, I want to be able to take it directly. I've read reviews of many, but they either don't mention whether the headset will pair with more than one device (obviously not at the same time :-) without deleting the pairing on one device, or say that it will only pair with one device. To narrow it down even further, I dislike earbuds, and so would prefer over-the-ear style (altho I will take earbuds, if that is all that meets the 2 important requirements (stereo, and multi-pairing). Thanks, and sorry for the silly questions. I have a friend who really likes a Jaybird model with his Iphone ... but it's earbuds. Another really likes his Motorola S10 .. again, earbuds (and supposedly, not good sound). ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/ ~ --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com with the body: unsubscribe ntsysadmin
Re: odd connectivity problem with PC.
Botched updates. One other thing I have seen is that AVG´s LinkScanner makes opening sites too slow, or even makes them do not open.

Re: recommendations for Bluetooth stereo headset that multi-pairs and is not an earbud?
I have a set of these LG-700 ($50 from Amazon). They are really nice. I have never tried pairing with more than one device. They do get uncomfortable after a long time, but less than other earbuds I have used. Robert On Mon, Jul 9, 2012 at 7:59 PM, Steven M. Caesare scaes...@caesare.comwrote: I have a Motorola S10...
