  2. Re:In Theory... on Gigabit Transfer Rates Over Power Lines? · · Score: 1

    Hey !! It works for a while...kinda like my broadband until the wind blows.

  3. My only issue with iTunes on iTunes User Sues Apple Over Lock-In · · Score: 1

    I agree, use it or not. Your choice. When my hard drive crashes after I download 4 full CDs and I didn't have time to back them up or burn them off, piss on the fact that I can't download them again without paying. That is silly. Charge me a minor download fee but not full price.

  4. Re:Easier = should be legal? on World's Shortest P2P App: 15 Lines · · Score: 1

    Yeah, like making the drinking age 21 keeps people from dying from accidents caused by DUI's. It takes a bit of convoluted logic to follow that path.

  5. Re:MCSE? Are you serious? on Fewer Computer Science Majors · · Score: 1

    The term 'Engineer' is being thrown around here. MS has used this term to describe 'their' system experts. The engineering community giggles at that tag. I am an MCSE and while it was not easy, I do agree that I do not qualify as an engineer. I don't go around calling myself one. I would rather it be reassigned as: Microsoft Certified Systems Expert. Now some will even argue that CCIE is not a true engineer. I do not have that cert so I will not offer opinion.

  7. Microsoft has engineered it's profit on Why Can't Microsoft be Sued Under the Lemon Law? · · Score: 1

    We just installed a new Windows Server 2003 domain and Exchange 2003 server for our company. As we were testing in the lab, we started looking at Microsoft's recommendations for running Exchange 2003 in your business. According to what we read, it takes a recommended 4 servers to implemement the first Exchange server. This is based on the recommended roles placement on domain controllers and member servers. ...Domain controllers, Schema master, Infrastructure master, Global Catalog servers, etc.... Is this designed out of systematic logic or profitability logic? I am putting together a grid that shows an estimated cost of deploying the following to a 25 user business based on Microsoft's recommendations for implementation: 1. Windows 2003 server domain 2. E-mail server 3. SQL server 4. Desktops with applicable software 5. Firewall - ISA 6. Great Plains accounting package 7. Hardware based on MS recommendations 8. CALs Can a business really afford this? My opinion is nope.

  8. Re:Anyone ever read a small town newspaper? on 19th Century News Coming Online · · Score: 1

    Read the Southwest Virginia Enterprise and then erase the word 'farsical' from your reply. I might even give you the $.50 you paid to incorporate that word in your reply. As far as the reference to 19th century editorialists being stuck in the 19th century, is everything that obvious to you or do you pride yourself on being obtuse? Stretch into the post and read it upside down. Then you will see the vauge point that I am making. : P

  9. Anyone ever read a small town newspaper? on 19th Century News Coming Online · · Score: 5, Funny

    I hope these stories aren't like the small town papers I used to read growing up in the Appalacian Valley. "Mr. and Mrs. Smith had dinner at old widow Jackson's house Sunday after church meeting. Her leg is healing fine. They sat around and watched Andy Griffith reruns and ate collard greens n' such." ..some of these small towns seem to be stuck in the 19th century. So, I would expect the mentality of the writers and editors of the 19th century to be similar.

  11. Only way to go on What are the Benifits of Running Your Own DNS? · · Score: 1

    I run our DNS locally in our shop. I can't imagine having it any other way. We run BIND on Suse and it is so very convenient.

  12. Re:What works best (and cheap) for switched networ on What Network Sniffing Tools Do You Use? · · Score: 1

    You will need to designate a promiscuous port on a managed switch. This will set up a full frame repeat from all ports on the switch to your monitoring host. This will allow you to see all frames instead of just the unicast designated for you and or the broadcast frames.

    When you are setting up your monitoring schema, you also need to look at any VLANs you may have set up to see what actual traffic you need to sniff and from where it is originating.

    Most enterprise level networks are using managed switch fabric. If not, please give me their contact information so that I may smack them.
