 Since this is the last day of the month and most likely the end of this
 list. Not really the end for good? Since one of the members here has
 offered to take on the task of making sure all the list members involved
 with the old one. Still have a place to give and get free advice.



 I was going to let this whole screw over job of the list go. But, as all
 who know of me. I’m a very open and straight forward on my outlooks and
 what I have to say! I realize it is your sponsored list run on your
 servers. And you have overhead to make it all work.



 And if you choose to take it down? That is fine for me. But, you also must
 realize that by not having enough “balls” Sorry ladies of the list. To come
 forward and give the list members any info or updates on what to expect. Is
 right down rude and uncalled for!



 What gets me the most is GFI never had any problems in the past posting to
 the list about new products or ways for them to make money? But, I guess
 you have forgotten a lot of the list members not only bought/used or pushed
 your products to places they worked at or even friends etc. And have helped
 you to get to the size you are now.



 As for myself I have no interest in your products and plan to share what
 has happened here and the way you have right out. CUT OFF the hand that has
 helped feed you for years!



 I would also like to thank Stu ,Alex and the rest of the old sunbelt group
 for the many years of list and personal support they have given to me and
 others members etc.

 No checks for me.

 Cash only - can't forge a $20 bill in my name. Too risky.

 You might want to check with Ben before characterizing my posting habits

 Also, portable devices for email - don't like 'em. Too darn hard to work

Re: Manage JAVA updates

2013-03-18 Thread Steve Ens
I'm using Secunia's CSI product.  It isnt' as full featured as Kace or
Landesk, but it is cheaper and it slipstreams patches to your WSUS box and
also does acrobat, etc...

  I didn't want to drag his thread off topic, so I'm starting a new one
 
  Not to brag (much), but I just picked up a Dell Precision 4600 laptop at
 a really
  good price - it's a quad-core machine with Win7 Pro, 16gb RAM and an ATI
  Firepro video card, 1920x1080 display (15.6) and a 256gb SSD. ($1600 -
 sale
  still going as far as I know.)
 
  Problem is, I'm pretty sure I made a small mistake. That 256gb drive
 just isn't
  big enough to hold the VMs I want. I should have gone with the 128gb
  minicard and a 1tb hard drive.
 
  So, I'm also looking for an external drive, either USB3 or eSATA - if
 you had
  the choice, which would you choose for putting in the laptop case for
 extra
  storage?

 Last year, we did a comparison of Meraki, Ruckus, Aerohive, Aruba and

 Meraki to be very on-par with Aerohive, as they have similar features and
 are both cloud managed. We figured the math, and if you wanted only a few
 APs, the cloud-managed solutions where very cost effective. But, as you
 increased your AP count, the controller based solutions started to make
 more sense.

 We ended up choosing Ruckus. Factors in our choice were: Price (When
 including the year-over-year costs of controllers), wifi range
 (beamforming, which we find very impressive), AP load (airtime fairness),
 and ease of use.

 We are using the Meraki MDM solution for our iPads, as it's free and
 better than a sharp stick in they eye.

I've asked this on the WSUS list over at PatchManahement.org, but while I am 
waiting on their wisdom, I thought I would ask here, as well.

I am using WSUS 3.0 SP2 on a Win2003 SP2 VM, and I need to move it to a Win2008 
R2 VM, and while I am it, change the server name.

Since I posted on the other list, I have determined (I think) that my database 
is the default Windows Internal database. I have a SUSDB.MDF file, and a 
separate SUSDB.BAK in a different folder. I must have set that backup up at one 
point, and pointed it to that backup folder, but it was so long ago, I've 
forgotten, and there is no documentation here.

I found this link - How to move WSUS from one server to another
http://blogs.technet.com/b/sus/archive/2009/07/02/how-to-move-wsus-from-one-server-to-another.aspx,
This blog post is 3.5 years old; is it still valid? Almost all the comments say 
this procedure did not work for them. If not, is there a better step-by-step 
guide?

Thanks for any help.

Re: OT: Speaking of Barracuda...

2013-01-29 Thread Steve Ens
Sorry, no spam filter, just a web filter.


On Tue, Jan 29, 2013 at 3:25 PM, Richard Stovall rich...@gmail.com wrote:

 Would any of you who have Barracuda spam filters mind checking something
 for me?

 The other day I noticed outbound traffic from my spam appliance to port 80
 at destinations not owned by Barracuda Networks.  I started a packet cap on
 my firewall and got some very interesting results.  In addition to traffic
 for legitimate updates and whatnot, the appliance is actually going out to
 and downloading content from the URLs embedded in some (but nowhere near
 all) inbound spam messages.  I haven't yet figured out any pattern to why
 it happens on some e-mails and not others.

 I created a case with Barracuda this morning just to confirm that it is
 expected behavior and get an explanation of the logic behind it, but the
 tech I spoke to had never heard of this.  I sent him the packet cap and he
 said he would kick it upstairs and get back to me, but I haven't heard
 anything yet.

 Anyone want to capture traffic from your Barracuda spam firewall on
 outbound port 80 and see if you see anything similar?

 Thanks,
 RS

   If the VM’s are not on the 2008R2 OS drive, is it necessary to
   export/import the VM’s, or could you just re-OS the 2008 R2 to 2012 and
   create new VM’s by pointing them to the VHD’s? I keep my guests simple

   no snapshots and when I create the VM I put all the files/settings in

Yep, I'll get one for the office as well to demo.  Definitely.  I think
they are trying to be Apple-like in their pricing.  Some people equate
higher pricing with higher levels of quality and therefore want it more.
 You slap a $299 price tag on the thing and people will stay away since it
is cheap.

The screen and the processor drive up the cost.  However, Microsoft is touting 
these as business units.  How much processor and screen resolution does one 
really need to run Office?

On the other side, these aren’t meant to compete with the iPad, but rather the 
MacBook.  Even after purchasing the keyboard, the Surface Pro beats the cost of 
the MacBook by a few thousand.  Just saw a report today that, before tax, the 
latest MacBook will cost around $4000.

Subject: RE: Surface with Windows 8 Pro announced...

IMHO it is too high.  You can get small laptops for from $500 to $900 depending 
on the requirements.  Sure the touch screen is more but you get a lot more 
connectors with a laptop than what I expect will be on a Surface.  Add to that 
it does not even come with the keyboard and it would be really too expensive.

This is my take on it:

http://myitforum.com/myitforumwp/2012/11/29/microsoft-surface-with-windows-8-pro-gets-official-pricing-and-january-2013-availability/

However, I’d be interested in your take on it.  Is it priced right?

 How enlightening! We’ve gotten so used to the scenario where we couldn’t
 use the power button to turn a device off that now being able to do so
 seems weird. “What? I can use the device’s power button to turn the Windows
 device off? That’s CRAZY!”. Amazing what mind shift just one sentence can

 Running the same 4 here, except we went with the Samsung Slates instead
 of the Surface, they are excellent machines. Once I demonstrated to users
 that the Start Page is just where their Start Button went to they were
 totally onboard. It is a total mind shift (just like Office 2003 to Office
 2007, but once you make that shift it is much more useful. As for Shutdown
 being hard to get to, what I was told by a friend at Microsoft (and which
 makes perfect sense once you think about it) is just use the power button
 on your device (whatever it might be). You no longer have to “pre-tell”
 Windows that you want to shut down and let it handle everything for you.
 Windows is now hardware aware enough that you just hit the power and
 Windows does whatever you told it to do (Power Settings). This won’t work
 in some environments where the power button is not accessible, but for the
 majority of businesses it works just fine, and it is incredibly fast! Going
 to Sleep and waking back up take my machines on average 2 seconds.

  I have got the new HTC 8X for personal use that I use side by side with
 an EVO 4G LTE and the 8X has got easily twice the battery life that the EVO
 does.
 
  I will second what Stephen said regarding apps also as that seems to be
 what people jump to first when knocking Windows Phone. I have found an
 equivalent app on my Windows Phone for every Android app I used (and I used
 lots as I used it for business and personal and have been using Android for
 over 2 years) with the exception of SongPop and Dice with Buddies (not
 earth shattering losses in the grand scheme of life, plus they are both
 available on Facebook if they are really needed). I use some fairly unusual
 apps like EventBrite and still the Windows Store had them all.
 
  If you get a chance to try out a Windows Phone 8, one look at the People
 Hub will convince you that Android and iOS have some catching up to do.

Re: windows phone 8

2012-11-15 Thread Steve Ens
I thought the lack of apps was a killer too, but since the release of
Windows 8 (official), there have been many great apps released.  That
wouldn't be the issue for me.  I love my blackberry keyboard though and the
reduced activesync functionality on the Windows phone might be hurtful.

  I am also thinking about the Nokia 920.  The reviews look good.  I am a
 Blackberry user and have been for years, you cannot beat them for
 enterprise mail.  So one thing that use a lot is Exchange Notes, and it
 turns out that Microsoft does not sync Notes.  This is also the case for
 iPhone and android, which is why I was looking at the Windows Phone.  I
 find it hard to believe that MS is not fully using ActiveSync on their
 device.  I am not alone, as this seems to be a be issue with Blackberry
 convertees. So far I have not been able to find a way to get Notes on the
 phone without having to move them to OneNote, which I do not want to
 separate that out.

 And the consumer side of me is hesitant on a Windows Phone because of lack
 of apps.  I not one that wants much in the way of apps but the key areas I
 want are not there.  I use several banks and none of them have full apps
 like on iPhone and android; I have Comcast and they have nothing on Windows
 phone; and I have a young son that loves Disney and they only have apps on
 iPhone.  From the app side, iPhone has it all, but I am doing my best to
 resist drinking the Kool-Aid.

Re: Side effects of Adobe updates

 All,

 Trying to give back a bit to the community...

 We've found that folks who are blindly accepting Adobe product updates
 are currently getting Chromium installed, and it's causing problems.

 During the Chromium install, it sets itself as the default browser,
 which causes at least two problems:

 1) Users were unable to click on links in Outlook 2010 getting Unable
 to open this link due to restrictions in this computer? Contact your
 administrator for help. This fixed it:
  http://support.microsoft.com/kb/310049

 2) Users were using IE 7/8/9 to browse to ftp sites, but then were
 unable to open the site with Windows Explorer. The fix was to export
 the registry hive at HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT/ftp from a working machine and
 import it to the affected machine.

 In all cases we have removed Chromium where the users had these
 problems. There might be other fixes, but these worked for us.

 There are a number of pundits pushing the notion that desktop computing is
 facing certain death, and especially for desktop computers as we've known
 them up to now.  Indeed, there are more portable offerings available than
 desktop machine options, but with a higher price/performance/feature ratio.
  I'm not sure I buy it, especially for many business environments where
 access to legacy apps is critical.  But it does give me something to
 consider as we face our annual equipment refresh cycle.

 What are your thoughts?

Re: File transfer hosting with 2GB files, pure web, guest upload?

Hey Ben
We're using Aspera here.  Works great.
steve

On Tue, Jul 17, 2012 at 11:52 AM, Ben Scott mailvor...@gmail.com wrote:

 Hi folks,

   I'm looking for a file transfer hosting service which can do the
 following:

 A1. Needs no client beyond a web browser
 A2. Accept files at least 5 gigabytes in size
 A3. Accept files from guests
 A4. Send files to guests
 A5. Doesn't allow guests to see files of other guests

   The intended use is for marketing people to mail huge video files around.

   Guest means people without an account on the service/system.  We'd
 like to be able to email someone a link, saying, Go to this URL and
 upload the files there, without requiring them to enroll in a service
 or pay a fee just for them.  Kind of like YouSendIt, but in reverse.
 (Presumably the links would need to expire after some time to avoid
 becoming a denial-of-service exposure.)

   I'm finding many services have a 2 gigabyte limit.  Some of these
 videos are now hitting that limit.  This applies to YouSendIt and
 Box.net at least.  (The 5 GB number is arbitrary but gives me
 something to shoot for.)

   DropBox, MS SkyDrive, Google Drive, are okay on the file size limit,
 but you need an account to do anything, as far as I can tell.

   FTP is considered too complicated for the intended audience.  If
 it can't be done in a web browser it's out.

   We need to avoid anything that requires client-side software.  If
 that's offered as an option, that's fine, but it has to have a
 web-only way as well.

   We expect to pay for this.

   Any suggestions?

Hosting ourselves.  Basically we have our VJ's/editors send us file based
video from anywhere they go (where they can't access a fibre drop).  That
sometimes means over satelite which has high latency.  We are use the

(Hyper V)Server 2012 Datacentre - much cheaper

On Mon, Jul 16, 2012 at 2:36 PM, David Mazzaccaro 
david.mazzacc...@hudsonmobility.com wrote:

 **

 Greetings,

 Getting  very close to moving into the VM world, and have a couple ofquestions
 …

 1) I am trying to figure out if I should go with 8 core or 6 core
 processors in my 3 hosts for my upcoming VMware environment.

 The price is about double.  And I’m not sure I need 8 cores.

 The layout that has been quoted is as follows:

 3 hosts connected to a PS4100XV SAN running VMware Essentials Plus Kit.

 The host servers I am looking at are either:

 HP DL360 G8 2x Intel® Xeon® E5-2640 (6 core, 2.50 GHz, 15MB, 95W) $5356
 each

 HP DL360 G8 2x Intel® Xeon® E5-2690 (8 core, 2.90 GHz, 20MB, 135W)$10,061 each

 I currently have 8 physical servers (Win2003, E2003, Citrix 4.0) that we
 will be P2V’d.

 After I P2V the servers, the plan is to begin creating new Windows 2008
 R2 VMs and migrating each server’s role (2008R2 domain, Exchange 2010,
 and Citrix XenApp 6.5).

 I want enough power to be able to run my existing 8 servers in a virtual
 environment and migrate them to AD2008/E2010/XenApp as well as leave some
 room for testing and growth.

 2 of the vendors said 6 core is fine, another vendor is quoting 8 core
 processors.

 2) The quotes I have for the “services” part of this are:

 $40,000 ($12k for AD/Exch,  $8k for XenApp 20k for VMware)

 $38,000 (not itemized)

 $28,000 ($11k for AD/Ex, $6k  XenApp, $11k for VM)

 Do these sound legit?  I have ~190 users if that helps.

 I really think 28k is either too aggressive or simply not realistic.  This
 is the same vendor who quoted me (3) single processor servers, so I have
 to go back to them and tell them I want dual proc.

 3) For the SAN, I have 2 options:

 PS4100XV (12 600GB 15k SAS)  $23,000

 NetApp FAS2240 (12 600GB 10k SAS) $22,000

 I have 2 vendors pushing the PS4100XV, and the other pushing the NetApp.

 From what I have been told, I’ll get better IOPS w/ the 15k drives in the
 Equalogic.  And fuller feature set.

 Any one w/ experiences w/ either of these models want to add their $.02?

 This is a completely new world for me, so any help is appreciated!

 http://www.newsbiscuit.com/2012/06/08/children-warned-name-of-first-pet-should-contain-8-characters-and-a-digit/
 

 Popular pet names Rover, Cheryl and Kate could be a thing of the past.
 Banks are now advising parents to think carefully before naming their
 child’s first pet. For security reasons, the chosen name should have at
 least eight characters, a capital letter and a digit. It should not be the
 same as the name of any previous pet, and must never be written down,
 especially on a collar as that is the first place anyone would look.
 Ideally, children should consider changing the name of their pet every 12
 weeks.

 Expectant mothers have also been advised to choose carefully where they
 give birth. Anywhere that has a place name is best avoided. These are
 listed on maps, which are freely available on the Internet.

 It’s a good idea too, security experts have warned, for children not to
 get friendly with certain teachers. For instance, Miss Smith may be
 enriching your son’s education but he should try and see if he can’t make a
 favourite of Father O’Grinnighan-Scythe II, even though it may mean a lot
 of staying late.

 Getting ready to migrate a small office environment to office 365. Domain
 is 2008 R2, only 10 users. I'm reading through all the documentation and
 specifically looking at the requirement for a separate machine to host the
 Directory Synchronization tool. Anyone here do this yet with a small
 office? Just curious as to the load on the box. I'm going to create a VM
 for this but see that the minimum requirements are 4G RAM and 70G of disk
 space. That seems high to me for something like this in a very small
 environment. Curious to hear what others have seen after doing this in a
 similar environment.

 Also just starting to read about single sign-on. So using the AD Sync tool
 doesn't give you single-sign on? It just gets your users and groups up to
 Office 365? For what purpose, if the credentials are synched? That's what I
 don't understand yet, but I'm not done reading yet, so maybe that will
 come. So if you need AD FS for single sign-on, how was the process?

 It's not so much that Microsoft assumes that everyone should 'do it their

 However, based on Windows Phone, just how Enterprise friendly will it
 really be. Will they remove VPN like they did in Windows Phone? Will they
 assume everybody in the Enterprise is running Win2k8 R2 using various
 recent SharePoint and DirectAccess technologies like they do? One of MS
 weaknesses all the way back to Win95 was their inability to really
 understand how the rest of the world is operating. They tend to assume that
 because they do it a particular way, everybody must be doing it that way-or
 must learn to do it their way.

 I think that $600 is the max that a non-cool tablet can command at the
 consumer level.  I suspect that Microsoft is looking to achieve sufficient
 cool factor to get past this, or to appeal directly to the corporate
 customer.

 They've been in the hardware subsidizing business for a number of years
 on the console side, so perhaps they have a decent idea of when to
 subsidize and when not to.  For one thing, they will not have the level of
 lock-in on the tablet side that they have with consoles, which allows them
 to recoup from the subsidized losses.

 Just to add a couple points.

 Legacy chipsets run warm, so Intel will definitely run warm.  I have a
 Win8 tablet, the Acer Iconia Tab WP500, and it has a vent, but the tablet
 itself is designed well enough that it doesn't get too warm.  BTW: the Acer
 comes with a keyboard, too, and I love it.  It's replaced any other laptop.
  However, I still carry around two tablets with me.  The Xoom and the Acer.
  I carry both because there are apps on the Xoom I cannot live without.
  The Windows market isn't there yet.

 Acer is $500.  Which leads to the price issue.  My guess is that
 Microsoft will attempt to compete with Apple on all fronts.  The Samsung
 tablet that Microsoft has been issuing to employees averages around $1500.
  Tablets should never be more than $500 in my opinion.  There's a a price
 point that only Apple die-hards will pay, and Microsoft needs to do
 whatever possible to bring the tablet down to a reasonable, obtainable
 price.

After reading through that document I’m looking forward to Windows 8 and Server 
2012 even more now.  There are some very cool features and improvements on the 
way.  Some of the standouts for me:-


• Built-in print driver

• Bitlocker

o   Only encrypting used space – that will greatly speed up enabling bitlocker.

o   New Hard drives shipped already encrypted

• Branch Office Direct Printing

• Client Hyper-V

• USMT now support migrating from XP.

Re: SBS Standard 2011 or Server 2008 R2

2012-06-06 Thread Steve Ens
SBS is great if you want/need Exchange and all the other toys you get
with SBS.  If you just need Windows plain jane, then buy Server 2008 R2 (or
wait a month and get 2012).

 If you don't need SBS, don't buy SBS.  Last time I priced SBS, it was more

 meets all your needs seems like it would be the automatic choice.

 Unless I'm missing something here.

 ServerA with a response of RST. Following that would be the standard 3-way
 TCP handshake.

  

 I question the robustness of an app that cannot gracefully handle a reset
 from another layer. I also question why the stack would be resetting
 frequently enough to be an issue. Resetting a specific connection, sure,
 but the whole stack? Dubious allegation. Check the trace.

 Morning/afternoon all...

 I have a particular application that is giving me headaches.  It is
 client/server based app that is constantly crashing.  The vendor is saying
 it is a network issue:  that the network stack is resetting causing one of
 the services to crash.  I've updates the NIC drivers, the HP team drivers
 and checked the switches and even changed the ports on the switch.  I've
 install wireshark, but am having some difficulty interpreting the capture
 logs.  Any ideas on what to look for would be greatly appreciated.

Re: TCP/IP stack reset

One follow up question...if the stack is resetting, would an RDP connection
be dropped as well?  ie. If I'm RDP'ing into the server and the stack gets
reset...do I lose my connection?  Because, during the whole debacle on

Re: TCP/IP stack reset

2012-05-17 Thread Steve Ens
This was his reply...

In windows there is only one TCP/IP stack even if a server (or workstation)
has multiple NIC cards in it. Therefore the reset of ANY NIC card on a
windows computer causes the TCP/IP stack on the computer to reset. The
problem is that BroadView uses two communications methods. One, the newer
one, does not care or is bothered by the stack resets. Unfortunately the
other method, the older one, is based on DCOM (a Microsoft technology)
which is sensitive to a TCP/IP stack reset. When a reset happens it
effectively breaks that part of BroadView. Thus some parts of BroadView
(like form operations) continue after a TCP/IP stack reset, but other parts
are broken and can only be fixed by restarting BroadView and can cause the
BroadView application server to outright crash.

 So, if the NIC on the server was going bad and kept resetting it would
break BroadView. If the switch port that the server is connected to resets,
it would cause the stack to reset and again break BroadView. If the cable
between the server and the switch is failing it can cause the stack to
reset and again, BroadView would break.

 OneNote is great coupled with Outlook and Exchange, but when you use
 multiple devices, it’s not a great solution.   Evernote does notes and more.

 Hey guys, anyone here using windows phone found a reasonable solution for
 syncing exchange/outlook notes to your phone?  I'm really missing this and
 my google-fu is failing me.

 Since I'm so OT anyway, I'll go ahead and day I'm really liking the

 That’s why I use Evernote.  Evernote works the same across Android, iOS,
 Windows – even the Windows 8 app (downloadable from the Windows 8 market).
 

  

 OneNote is great coupled with Outlook and Exchange, but when you use
 multiple devices, it’s not a great solution.   Evernote does notes and more.

 3 hosts: ($21k each)

 HP DL380 G7 E5660

 Pair of 146 15k drives mirrored

 196 G RAM - this was $45k alone

 Quad port gig adapter

 2 Switches: ($1,800 each)

 HP 2910

 1 SAN ($22,700)

 NetApp 2240

 12 x 600GB

 VSphere Essentials Plus ($5,200)

 6 Windows licenses ($13,600):

 Server 2008 Datacenter 

 Windows/Xenapp licenses ($26,000)

 $40k services 

 Install/config SAN, switches, hosts, VMware, new Citrix farm, 2008 Domain
 upgrade, P2V existing servers

 Total: $185,000

 Sound good?

 IMPORTANT INFORMATION/DISCLAIMER

 I certainly don't have time to monitor the content of e-mail sent and
 received via this account for the purposes of ensuring compliance with
 anyone's policies and procedures. I am pretty sure that somewhere in UK
 legislation there is some politically-correct drivel that stipulates I must
 never send or store e-mails or attachments that are obscene, indecent,
 sexist, racist, defamatory, abusive, in breach of copyright, encrypted,
 amusing, overly long, slightly opinionated, anonymous, likely to harm
 animals or hurt the feelings of an as-yet-unspecified or as-yet-nonexistent
 minority (such as extraterrestrial eggplants). Emails of this nature sent
 in or out of this account may be intercepted and stopped by the system, but
 it's a long shot. This being the UK, even if I was prosecuted for breach of
 said email guidelines, I'd probably walk with a suspended sentence anyway,
 but if I'd forgotten to pay my car insurance, I'd most certainly be hung,
 drawn and quartered.

 I am not responsible for any changes made to the message after it has
 been sent, in more or less the same way that cyclozine manufacturers aren't
 responsible for drug addicts mixing it with methadone and overdosing, so
 I'm glad I cleared the confusion up there nice and early. Where opinions
 are expressed, they are not necessarily mine. However, I don't make a habit
 of expressing other people's opinions for them, so you shouldn't take that
 statement as an indication that I am in the business of providing an
 opinion-expressing service. In the event that I did, this discourse would
 provide no guarantee that I would do it anyway, but I don't, so I won't.

 This e-mail and any files transmitted with it are confidential and
 intended solely for the use of the individual or entity to whom they are
 addressed. If you are not the intended addressee, or the person responsible
 for delivering it to them, aside from the fact that you've clearly got some
 level of unauthorised access to their account or are at least engaged in
 some sort of fraud, I'm obliged to tell you that may not copy, forward
 disclose or otherwise use it or any part of it in any way. To do so may be
 unlawful, and as you're already breaking the law, I am sure that bombshell
 makes you quake in your boots and turn yourself over to law enforcement
 immediately. If you receive this e-mail by mistake, please advise the
 sender immediately. That would be me, and as I am clearly prone to sending
 emails to completely the wrong person, I should instantly be stripped of my
 status as a technical consultant and sent to do something more becoming of
 my stupidity, such as appearing on Big Brother, the X Factor or insert
 country name here's Got Talent.

 everybody else does it. That's not helpful to anybody.
 4. It shows my ignorance on some subjects.
4a. I do understand why people do it (for humor and simplicity), but
 I dislike getting a lmgtfy.com response.

 5. I've accidentally hijacked other people's topics. Oops.

 Thus, I try to only ask the important questions. I don't usually have
 the time to watch my lists all day, so a detailed conversation isn't always
 possible. I really do like asking the list for opinions on things, mainly
 so I can see what the wisdom of the crowd takes on various issues or
 products.

Re: Carolina BBQ Sauce (was Re: Proxy server and ISA)

2012-03-14 Thread Steve Ens
I was at Costco a week ago and noticed they are selling the Big Green Egg.
 My mouth instantly started to water.  Came with a nest, shelves for about
$800.  I am seriously tempted to make the investment in my culinary future.

 Of course, being a good NC boy, taking the challenge = another excuse to
 eat some Q

 Dry rub, sometimes inject with Apple cider, smoke 240 degrees until it's
 done.  Put it in a cooler wrapped in a towel for half our or so, then pull
 it.  Because I like it, I then mix in a middle NC vinegar/pepper sauce, but
 it is quite good without it.  The reason for 240 vs the advertised best
 temp of 225 is simply because my smoker seems to have a natural tendency to
 settle at a steady 240.

 Yes, there are many, and you'll avoid 95% of them by buying a swing kit
 from sbsmigration.com
 GPO's, permissions, OU structure, domain forest level, DNS entries, SBS
 Service pack flags are just a few you might run in to. The SBS swing kit
 has tools that will expose many of the gotcha's and I can guarantee you
 it's worth every penny.

 You'll get really good at ADSIEdit and NTDSUtil

 My first test run through SBS2003 - SBS2011 took probably 30 hours all
 said and done
 Having practiced it a few times, it's now a nearly trivial (by comparison)
 seven hour job soup to nuts

 Looking for input from anyone familiar with a SBS2003 to SBS2011 upgrade.

 I know SBS2011 doesn't come with ISA/TMG firewall anymore, and the current
 SBS2003 server is using that so I need a suitable replacement for ISA/TMG.
 Customer doesn't want to spend money on a separate TMG software package
 and a server to put it on so...  Maybe a small firewall appliance?  Their
 current SBS2003 box is mainly just their firewall, file/print, and Exchange

 Hi All,

  

 I have one specific user using a Mac who cannot resolve DNS properly in
 Firefox or Safari on OS X 10.6.8.  They can ping by hostnames just fine.
 They can get to any website by IP just fine but not by hostname.  Any
 ideas?  I’m stumped and Google hasn’t been very helpful this morning.

Re: ASUS laptops/notepbooks

2012-02-06 Thread Steve Ens
My colleague has one.  Apparently the ICS upgrade left a couple of
glitches, but on the whole, the tablet is extremely fast.  and good looking.

 OT but related,
 anyone get their hands on an ASUS Prime tablet yet ?  Looking for a real
 world review from someone that has actually used one.
 Thanks

 I’ve never heard anything but good about their laptops/netbooks/tablets

 I don’t have any experience with the current models, but I have an Asus
 laptop that’s several years old and has held up like a champ. I keep it
 because it has a ginormous screen. So in terms of durability, I have no
 complaints.

 I also have a Lenovo netbook that I love. It’s small, light, has good
 battery life, and performs well. Lenovo tends to be pretty innovative,
 despite having some boring-looking models. So, I wouldn’t rule them out
 without exploring their product line fully.

 When I travel, I often take both. I leave the Asus in my hotel room, and
 carry the Lenovo into meetings. This gives me the best of both worlds. But
 this fall, I hope to finally trade both for a new unit that has a big
 screen but is also light and has all-day battery life. I’m thinking Ivy
 Bridge + Windows 8 will make for some great options.

 Anyone using these in the enterprise?  We currently use Dell or Lenovo
 laptops.  Some of the ASUS models look very light, which would be good for
 our nomadic staff.  Just wondering on long term durability, ability to
 image.

  

 Comments appreciated.

Re: Registered for MMS 2012 - who knew

2012-01-30 Thread Steve Ens
Looks like an option for me as well...I have to decide if I'd get more out
of this or tech-ed.  Is there a vendor expo at MMS as well? Which is nicer,
Vegas in April or Orlando in June?
