RE: OT - Parental Controls

+1. I set up parental controls on my teenage nephew's computer but he kept trying to get around or disable them. All attempts ended when the PC was moved so that anyone walking into his bedroom would have an immediate view of the monitor... From: Steven Peck

Hosted VoIP recommendations

2010-12-06 Thread E. Peeters
Hello gang, We have a production facility with a small office that we are looking at hosted VoIP for. Voice/data contracts are up for renewal and the PBX is sufficiently outdated that it is no longer supported by the manufacturers (nor are the handsets) so an all-in-one VoIP solution seems like

Senna was an excellent driver, top class, no doubt about it, but too dependent on his engineers. Now, Prost, that was a real F1 pilot. He could drive the car, and talk turkey with the guys building the car, sometimes to their dismay when they tried to favor Senna and Prost was smart enough to know

Custom ADM confusion

I get an error 55 on the custom ADM below. I'm not exactly an expert on custom ADMs but it isn't the first I write and it's pretty straightforward, so I don't understand what I am missing. Probably something obvious as usual. CLASS USER CATEGORY !!CustomTemplates CATEGORY !!CustomCategory

Just a guess here, but don't you need an ACTIONLISTOFF and END ACTIONLISTOFF section as well? Otherwise it won't know what to do when the policy is cleared? See the last example here: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc738443(WS.10).aspx. -Bonnie From: E. Peeters [mailto:ml2

Missing search icons on IE8

2009-09-30 Thread E. Peeters
I've installed IE8 on Vista PCs only so far and I'm puzzled with the search engine icons that appear under the search box when one types a search entry. When the use does not have local admin privileges, each icon is a magnifying glass, and they all of course look the same. When the user does

Either way, i365 would be a vendor to look at. They will do offsite/online backup using their servers for you, or they will give you the software to be your own online backup provider. If you need additional hardware to be your own provider, they have it all packaged in an appliance. I tried

WSUS: Declinng update per group

2008-12-08 Thread E. Peeters
Hello gang, In WSUS 3, how can I decline an update for a specific group without declining for all groups ? Not Approved doesn't quite cut it because WSUS still reports the update as missing, making me think that my server is never fully patched. Concrete example: I can use .Net 3.0 on my web

AFAIK, the latest PDM for PIX501 fixes the Java problem, but I have not tested it personally. Instead, I have a virtual PC with Java frozen at 5.0, the latest known (at least by me) version to be PDM friendly. Quick fixes still work better via SSH though. :-)
