You can Start and Stop the Web publishing service (aka IIS) now with NT4. The problem is that this does not always fix the problem, I have seen overflow attacks that just make the service fail, it just wont serve up pages. No stopping of the service at all. You have to make a monitor do a GET on the server to make sure it is Ok and if not stop the service and see if that fixes the problem.
I have notice other problems with NT Admins installling software and NOT rebooting, forgetting about it and NOT keeping a server log book. Then when NT does crash they restart it only to BSOD because of some Fuped program they never finished installing. So alot of NT problems come from bad administartion. On NT it is also a bitch to run more then one BIG service on at a time. You need to parcel out File,Print,Web, Email and SQL. Why you say ? well you need to reboot all the time to install software and you can't very well take down your whole company to do it, this is just one reason there are many others.
We have not even begun to talk about disaster recovery on NT. I would like to hear more on that topic.:)
Driving Laws are only for PUBLIC HIGHWAYS and ROADS. You can disregard the law when using a car on private land. Now do you understand where I am commming from. I am not recommending a test for ALL computers users, perhaps not even a test at all, more like a class to educate people of the dangers.
You can debate the car vs computer thing all day. Check the numbers on computer related crimes and you will see for yourself.
My spelling of DIP SHIT is not an issue, I was just trying to illecit a responce, and it appears that I was successful.
Agreed, not yet anyway. I am not one to give the FEDs any more fuel, they are already looking for ways to control the net. But I think the last few weeks have scared them even more in to understanding how important computer skills are and will be in the 2k's. Soon there will only be 2 classes of people, those with computer skills and those without.
You are a fool if you think you can cause more monetary damage with a car then a computer. And yes in the US human life does have a price on it, as cold as that might seem. In other countries human is of little or no value at all.
What are you saying really ? You could not pass the test ? It would hurt sales ? What a crock of shit. We already have restrictions on export of Supercomputers for some countries, did you know that dip shit. I don't see the Feds freaking out about car exports.
And yes @home and RR are a hazard, just because you do not see the danger does not mean that it is not there. Now go stick you head in the sand.
I think it will be more fun watching MSFT tell the World that NT4 is total crap and now you need 2K because now it is right. I think that alot of CIO's will be trying to keep the CEO's cool about spending soon much on NT in the first place. It really might have been cheaper to stick with *nix in the first place.
People who don't know how to drive should stay off the road. Most people feel that way.
The Internet is being marketed like eye candy and everyone I repeat EVERYONE wants everyone to get on the "NET". These newbies and MSCE dime a dozen sys admins are setting up the whole net for a big crash. There is NOT WAY to protect the stuipd and lazy from crackers. Everyday there is more fresh meat for the crackers to exploit. Secure 3 systems and 20 more hit the net for the first time. I have scanned my subnet on RR and I have found people with their systems wide OPEN, I could have printed on their printers for christs sake.
This issue is about locking down systems connected to the net. That is where the whole problem started. The best admin can't be expected to keep up with all exploits on all of his systems all the time, but he should have this Internet pointed systems LOCK DOWN and a good firewalling/auditing plan in place to help him out.
If we can't get admins with big pipes and big iron to keep the lid on their systems how in the world do you think Joe PIII 750 with a DSL is going to fare ?
A persistant Internet connection is not a toy. People should have to take a class before they are giving such a powerfull weapon. People have had to take driving tests for years and everyone is better off for it. I wager that I could cause more damage with my computer then with any type of moter vehical any day, of course nobody would get killed, but we seem to have even put a price tag on that as well.
This is Why GHOST is the only way to admin Windows Boxes. first you try to fix it, which you can in most cases, But if it is really hosed and you have spent more then 1 hour trying to fix it, it is time for a GHOST multicast boot disk and a system nuke. 1. Copy user files to a network drive, if networking is still running 2. GHOST 3. Copy user files back 4. Collect pay check
This is why I GHOST every machine before I redeploy it. The same thing can happen to NT that is why you NEVER install unneeded software on a production machine. And if you need to install new software you should try it on ONE server first and use it for about a week or so and test the hell out of it, this included Hotfixes and Service Packs. This brings up the fact that you need to firewall an NT network big time. If by act of God MSFT does release a Hotfix for a crack I'll be damed If I will install it on more then one machine to test it. Restoring an NTFS file system ACL's is a ROYAL pain in the ASS.
There is the DVDR that holds 37GB of data, The problem is that it cost about 4K right now. I don't know if it can wite to key tracks/layers tho. But I would think that it has to be able to read them for play back, so getting a rom that fixes that should not be a problem. I have heard that these same DVDR's should be under 2k some time this year. The media is about 35 bucks also making copying a DVD not worth the effort.
I good card is the PVR from DPS. I think that they make a RT card too. Matrox Has a card set called MAX that is real time. It cost about 5K a set. We are talking Stuff for Broadcast here.
It wont cost more to broadcast HDTV. but you need a new transmitter. Once that is in place you can send out NTSC and HDTV with no problem at all. I think that can send out all kinds of extra stuff with the NTSC channel because of the low bandwith NTSC signal.
Most stations will use 2 channels on for HDTV and one NTSC. Nobody will buy HDTV's for 4K and cable will still send out NTSC and HDTV. HDTV is a product without a market. It will be about 20 years befor it really makes a difference. BTW most stations use NTSC editors and VTR's I don't know where the 6X data is going to come from, you can't boost the image if the data is not there. So for the most part it will be like broadcasting in Stereo, it's not really Stereo but it makes the light on you TV come on.:)
We have a Citrix 4 TS without Metaframe and I use linux clients all the time. You just have to have the ICA stack. It works great from 95,NT,MacOS or Linux. The only problem is the cost per connection. You get raped for 2 NT workstations if you use NT, But with Linux you just pay once and you have WIN32 API for all.
Win2k...hhahahah Do you have a clue ? Companies just spent billions on y2k and now you think they will upgrade to Win2k just because it is there? You need a really good reason to spend millions on a new OS. I think that it is MSFT that is in for a real shocker here. I think you might see the Linux hype die out and some stock prices drop, but you will see Linux gain market share as well.
This is what I have been waiting for. I always buy dual only now days. I have a dual PPRO 180 oc'ed to 200 and I now have a duel 300A oc'ed to 465@112mhz FSB. SMP is for me, and Intel has had a lock on me because of it.
At my work I spend alot of time fixing Office 97 problems. Most of them require a reboot because of BAD OS design. So lost work from Office 97 adds up rather quickly. Yea what a great productivity tool it is. NOT!
Well my I kids will beat the crap out of your kids then won't they.
Get real I'm not saying to teach your kids to fight each other. I'm saying that teenage boy's are being put under more pressure now then ever before and this is a side effect from it.
I never even started in on the parents, that is where most of the blame lies.
The problem is that we have changed the young males role. We have ask them not to fight and get in touch with their feelings and be more passive like girls. We have not ask the same of girls their rolls have not changed. It is not the games , it is the pent up frustration about what they want to do and what we have ask them to do. Remember sayings like boys will be boys and thing like that. Males have been conditioned to fight and be aggressive you can just ask them to change, or you get big responses of bottled up rage boiling over. Let the boys fight and be destructive, That is what we do and that is what when have done from the time mankind first stood on 2 feet and could carry a club.
Also you have the media scaring the hell out of everyone, the schools are safer now then they have ever been. Have you seen the real numbers on the schools? Your teen is much more likely to get killed anywhere but school.
Games are the problem ? Yea right, just a bunch of morons looking for an easy answer to a complex problem.

I think He speaks of ZOPE. DC just did a big job for the NAVY overhauling their People Search Site.
They must have showed them what ZOPE in the hands of a Zen Master can really do. For very little cost.

Dont forget the 4/3 aspect ratio for NSTC CCIR 601 ,or else you'll have problems with curves and such.

Oops My bad we do have metaframe 1.00 installed.
I had to log in and check.
We have a Citrix 4 TS without Metaframe and I use linux clients all the time. You just have to have the ICA stack. It works great from 95,NT,MacOS or Linux. The only problem is the cost per connection. You get raped for 2 NT workstations if you use NT, But with Linux you just pay once and you have WIN32 API for all.
you can change the version number in samba. My Linux "test" servers at work are listed as NT 5. I find that this raise less eyebrows.
Win2k ...hhahahah
Do you have a clue ? Companies just spent billions on y2k and now you think they will upgrade to Win2k just because it is there? You need a really good reason to spend millions on a new OS.

I was/am really concerned about this issue. I glad that the Judge was reasonable about it.
Stay cool. If you did not get anything in the mail you have nothing to worry about.
This is what I have been waiting for. I always
buy dual only now days. I have a dual PPRO
180 oc'ed to 200 and I now have a duel 300A oc'ed to 465@112mhz FSB. SMP is for me, and Intel has had a lock on me because of it.
So you say that a crash every once in awhile is OK. Well I DO NOT. I supose you like cars that stop running when you use the blinkers too.
I try not to learnt too much in one day. :)
At my work I spend alot of time fixing Office 97 problems. Most of them require a reboot because of BAD OS design. So lost work from Office 97 adds up rather quickly. Yea what a great productivity tool it is. NOT!
