Oh yeah, lets pretend nothing happened -- Just stay out of our way, geez Yeah, lets just find the guilty party and ask if they are sorry - This is WAR! -Original Message- From: Solon Edmunds [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, September 18, 2001 11:41 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: 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!

RE: has anyone used doubletake successfully?
There is no problem with the failover it is the failback that does not work as designed. You will be pretty much on your own also the tech support is not very good. If you work with the product for more then a couple of days you will not more then the support dudes. We are using it with IIS, SQL7 running on NT and it works great, fails over within 30 seconds. WE don't have a large volume of ecommerce so that is fine for us. The fail back is the only spot where we have to go in and remove the failed over ip manually because it just won't work right. It has once or twice but most often it does not work as advertised. We have messed with it and messed with it and - well, it is just easier to manually remove the ip etc... Hope that helps, side note - we are using co-standby server for another app and it works outstanding and it is much easier to configure.

RE: has anyone used doubletake successfully?
We tested it over a WAN and it appeared to work fine, and that was one reason that we went with doubletake because it seemed to be the superior choice over a WAN. We use it on the LAN currently. -Original Message- From: Heidi Pilewski [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, September 14, 2001 7:07 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Re: has anyone used doubletake successfully? Thanks for the information to all who responded! One more question: Do you keep the second server in another location (necessitating a WAN link) or on the same subnet or different subnet? I'm interested in how well the failover goes with the second server off-site.

NT Backup Problem
I am using NT Backup and I am getting the following error There is no unused media available with the selected type. In TechNet Q269600 is the only article listed and I tried it even though it is for a different drive. I have tried several different tapes, same message. How do you get the device to recognize the media? The device works ok with Backup Exec. Any suggestions, I am running NTbackup for exchange on another DLT device and it works fine.

RE: Authenticating from a subnet without a BDC.
It sounds like you have it setup so broadcasts cannot pass from one subnet to another. You will need to allow either a directed broadcast or broadcasts to pass. For example if the two subnets were separated bt a router you would need ip helper addresses pointing to to the PDC. -Original Message- From: Jason Gauthier [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, August 27, 2001 7:42 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Authenticating from a subnet without a BDC. A recent change in my network has caused some interesting issues, and I wanted to get some advice. We've recently added a 3rd interface to our PIX 520 firewall. We stuck our web servers on it. (We only have one domain, and kept these part of it) I've allowed traffic from the web servers to the domain controllers for authentication purposes. (There is no BDC on the subnet with the web servers. The other subnets do have BDC's) Last week things appeared to be working correctly. I could log into the servers (not using a cached profile) and from my inside subnet I could browse the machines. (The PIX does some funky things with IP address aliasing on a DMZ like this.) Now, I come in monday morning, the machines are no longer getting authentication information from the domain controllers. (This could have occurred last week too, I suppose). A user changed their password, and no cannot log onto the web server. I understand the web server broadcasts for a domain controller to pick it up, but I also realize that they know the IP addresses (somewhere) of the other domain controllers. I know this because of the firewalling logging when it was closed off. The machine attempted connections to every one of my domain controllers. So, it doesn't seem to be authenticating to the domain anymore... I entered an entry in the lmhosts file pointing out the domain and PDC, but alas, no go. Anything that can be offered, I'd appreciate. One other small tidbit. The web servers are 2000 systems, everything else is NT4.

Power Outage - Heating Up
We have a rather large facility, raised floor and air conditioned. We have a backup generator that handle the Computer Room really well during a power outage except it was never sized to handle the Air cooling unit. We had a rolling black out recently that lasted two hours and the room got very very hot. Yes, I am in California. We are in the process of enlarging the Computer room and we are going to resize the generator at that time. But, my question is - is there some way we can setup some type of alert if the temp in the room goes up? It needs to be able to send an email or place a call in case it happened after normal work hours. Anyone have any ideas? How about a way to send an alert if the air unit loses power? If we could setup alerts we could gracefully shut servers down remotely if need be or something. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
