So, it sounds like you have it installed and sitting at a CLI prompt.... Is it just X that wont start then?

For example, Cisco-Linksys RC042 supports dual external WAN connections. When the primary fails, the secondary kicks in and everything routes automagically.

homedesktop\storage is not accessible by domainuser\user. The very simple workaround is to connect to homestorage with different credentials. From Windows Explorer, Right click My Computer and select Map Network Drive. Pick a drive letter, enter your homestorage folder location, tick the checkbox for 'connect using different credentials', and enter your …

I've been experimenting with OpenVPN lately and now would like to generate a package with certain features enabled that require a recompile. I.e. enabling the password caching feature and packaging it with specific certs and profiles. Basically, is it possible to compile a windows-version/windows-package of the client from linux? If …

Depends on the OS you are using... in windows you can issue the 'copy' command and give the destination a different name. So you can copy and rename in 1 command. What OS do you have?

MAke sure the server is the DNS and/or WINS server for the remote domains. When a remote machine tries to join a domain, it relies heavily on the DNS for the domain. I've joined many remote machines to a domain over VPN and through routed networks. As long and you …

You don't unless the wifi is set to be an 'open' network.

Circumventing your school policies is kinda shady, dontcha think. Best just to ask him.

Seriously... If IPCONFIG.EXE is missing, just copy it over from another winodws system.

You connect with no modem or router? Unlikely. You must have a device to decode the signal and give you a RJ 45 ethernet connection. How do you connect? Is it an always on connection? Your pc will always send packets, how do you know it's sending them? wireshark? Do …

You'd have to ask them to verify the cert on their end. Or send them the current and ask them ro replace with the latest.

Nope. If you want to retain mail on the server, make sure that you don't have the "delete mail on server when I delete it here" selected, and just delete the mail from outlook's inbox once it's done syncing.

The switch reboots when you plug in a console cable? do you see any output in the console? Can you log the console session and post it?

Just to add.... there is not enough information in this post at all. WE would need a lot more info. Start with, "How do you know it broke?". What are the symptoms? How is the network setup or how did you set it up? Describe the network to the best …

BYOD to a corp environment is always tricky and Active sync control over a device is not the best. For Ios, you will want to create a device profile and post to a corp site that the end user can access, click, and install. The corp profile can have info …

HE may be returning the phone and wants to wipe his stuff.... Usually in SYSTEM SETTINGS -> SECURITY -> BACKUP AND RESET -> FACTORY DEFAULT

What do you mean by "change IP randomnly"? You normally wouldn't do this since you need an IP in a certain Range with proper MAsk and Gateway for proper communications. Do assign an IP via command line, you would use (for example): ifconfig eth0 192.168.1.2 netmask 255.255.255.0 route add default …

Arp retry should have nothing to do with this. If network shows connected then layer 1 is ok. CAn you ping your own IP? Can you ping the IP of the gateway? Can you ping beyond the gateway to 4.2.2.1? Can you ping by fqdn? (i.e. ping www.yahoo.com)

I have a UVerse modem as well. I used it's Router-behind-Router fuction and the 'forward all ip to single host' to emulate a network bridge since the Uverse modems don't have a true bridge mode. My internal router now has the public IP assinged to it even though the Uverse …

Find a network, and administer it. Seriously though, what kind of question is that? You study, you learn, you get an entry level job, and work your way up from there.

I don't think there is a way to determine the uniqueness of the MB without opening the unit... However, that PS warning message is common enough. I've seen it when I use a 60W charger in a dell model requiring 90W, or when using inferior 3rd party chargers that don't …

IIRC, the option is '-A <# of lines that follow>" Example grep -A2 findthistext /opt/inthisfile

Open your terminal. Type "ping www.google.com" The terminal should come back and say it's pinging an ip address xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx or it will say timeout/host not found. Let me know which it is.

First, if you are 'new' to linux, do you really think your company wants you to learn linux on its production website and database? No, I don't think so. RAID is important for most physical servers, 3 disk RAID 5 is pretty standard but raid1,6,10 are also viable options depending …

Start from the public internet and work your way into your network. IF this is just a hardware layout, then show the routers, firewalls, LBs, switches, etc... and the interconnects between each. Look at some examples on google images for ideas

The XP Transfer wizard only transfers user data and settings for user account. It has nothing to do with applications or drivers. It is expected that the receiving machine already have the applications loaded. Plus, the receiving machine should be up to date on all drivers as well... How would …

Try this tool... it's never failed to create a bootable USB for me. http://www.pendrivelinux.com/universal-usb-installer-easy-as-1-2-3/

Its not one or the other. Use the right tool for the right job. I use linux for all my servers. I use linus to run asterisk for the VOIP system. I use linux desktop distro for all my python coding. I use windows as my normal workplace desktop for …

1) switches are layer2 devices. No IPs come into play. they forward based on MAC. If you have a layer 3 switch for routing or ACLs, this still doesn't come into play when forwarding packets. 2) Routers are not usually connected to enduser systems. 3) PCs use ARP to resolve …

I take it there are no historical backups either? What kind of files are they? PErhaps the important ones can be repaired.

1) Network discovery is usually broadcast based unless you are on a Windows Domain. A routed network like this will block broadcasts (That's a good thing). Also, are you pinging by IP or trying to use FQDN or WINS? 2) The pings being blocked are probably caused by PFSense. However, …

Usually, an in line firewall would sit between the router and internal lan such that: Router -> Firewall WAN port -> Firewall -> Firewall LAN port -> internal lan. All internal hosts would use the Firewall LAN port as the new default gateway. You would want to setup a new …

Sometimes, recreating a classic is a good move. We have several devs working here that used a game they developed on the playstore as part of their resume. Usually, it's a game most are familiar with like checkers, card games, othello, something like that.

Lol Nice..... David, we do need a lot more information before we can help you....

Both are right on the battery charging and or warranty path. The Kies software allows the phone to be plugged into a PC USB port and have it show up like a usb disk. However, you can also use android apps to have the phone share files over SMB, FTP, …

mike_2000, I've seen many of these, it's usually an add on that loads by simulating a CD. End user runs the 'CD' and can create an encrypted vault ont he USB, just like truecrypt.... Anyone interested in encryption on Windows would probably be using truecrypt anyway.

Windows 7 and windows 8 can both use the GPOs from server 2008. But the new win 8 policy settings, especially the ones that turn off the unified logon crap, are not included in 2008R2. The new Windows 8 policy settings can only be managed by using Server 2012 or …

Home group is Microsoft's way of sharing files in a home network. Not involved here. When you ping 192.168.0.1, are you wired or wireless? Can you ping beyond the gateway? Ping 4.2.2.1 or ping 8.8.8.8. Do you get a response. If yes, then your basic connectivity is ok. Now ping …

Like Rubberman aluded to, if the networking is set to NAT, then you can port forward a specific port (i.e. tcp/80 tcp/443) from the host machine IP into the virtual machines private IP. That is done right in the Virtual machine's networking section.

I use Eraser. http://eraser.heidi.ie/ It will run an a user-defined schedule and simply writes random garbage or all 0's to the unused space of the drive. I like this software cause you can set it and forget it.

If it's a startup message at logon, then Gerbil has the correct answer. This is a very typical thing for companies to do, equiviliant to the MOTD for Linux hosts or networking equipment.

Cat-5e/Cat-6 have a maximum distance of 100m or about 325 ft. IF you need to go that far, you need to think of fiber or using repeaters.

I second that. I always use a VirtualBox virtual machine to look at new OS installs instead of loading to physical HW or messing with partitions.

You should probably just restore it from your server's backup and call it a day.

Agree with JorgeM. The MS DHCP service is pretty solid. I've never had any issues with it once configured.

Sound like you want to inventory your hosts on a network. There are lots of 3rd party tools that can do this via installable agent. You can also write a logon script if these are all windows machines to pull netbios name and some basic machine info and write that …

Make both IPs static and assign the default gateway to be from the primary 192.168.x.x subnet.

I dont think you get that level detail. Also, to restrict what users can sign into what machines, you use the PC's local security policy in: Local Policies -> User Rights Assignment -> Allow log on Locally. You'll want to leave administrators on there, and remove Users and guests, and …
