Got things working again! For those who might encounter this in the future, here's what I did: Manually download and extract the KB2305420 update package. (hint: rename the file extension from msu to cab) Extracted the two files that were being complained about in the system update readiness lo

RE: Metro Ethernet ?

We recently went from a T1 Internet connection to 10meg Metro-E and we tested 10 megs to our ISP, but only 5 to Miami, 3 to Atlanta, and only 1meg to the West Coast. Our problem was our Firewall couldn't handle the throughput. Paul From: Brian Desmond [mailto:br...@briandesmond.com] Sent:

ok, i really, really like this OT, but this wil probably be last input. 3 years ago I got to be a judge at the Memphis in May BBQ championship. I judged shoulder, wings and whole hog. It was a GREAT time. Now the toddler has crimped the "i drive for BBQ" roadtrips, but he is worth it. Bill

RE: Upgrading VMware ESX 3.5 to 4.1 advice needed

Do you have paid VMWare support? If so start a case, they'll spell out the options that exist. I simply removed a host from my old VC (32 bit W2K3) and then added it to the new one(64 bit W2K8R2), test, repeat as needed. My recent experience with them was far superior to any other support group

Re: Upgrading VMware ESX 3.5 to 4.1 advice needed

We built new Windows 2008r2 servers and put Virtual Center on them. In general we don't worry about data carried forward. For the most part we were able to scrounge systems to replace existing VICenters. For the one environment we couldn't, we just nuked the system it was on and rebuilt it, inst
