I don't need a program to force me to look away from my screens every 15 minutes. The end users interrupt me enough anyway.

I'd like any suggestions. I have dozens of hosts that generate logwatch, logcheck, and fail to ban messages sent by email. I'd like to use a new system to accept all those messages along with the following: 1) Archive messages from multiple servers for a set amount of time. 2) …

Mint Cinnamon is a great alternative to unity. I use that on the desktop now. I still use Ubuntu 12.04 LTS for a majority of the servers.

Where did the router come from? Was it provided by an ISP? Any model#? How about a picture?

Sounds like the iso/disk is damaged. If you have the original ISO, you can use the .iso file and mount it directly to the Guest OS without having to burn it first.

Google latitide will report on other's locations. Use it to keep tabs on your kids for example. ATT has a pay for user locator. 2 off the top of my head

JorgeM is correct. The only thing I will add is that you can download the trial Versions of the server products that will work for 90-180 days from microsoft if you are learning the product. These work just fine in a VM (I use virtual box).

This is common when you run a virtual environment on the same host. Do you have Virtual Box installed on this host by any chance?

You need to hit www.dell.com and use the Support link. Your Dell has a service tag # on a sticker, probably on the bottom of the unit. Enter the Tag # and you are given a page with links to all drivers for the OSes that unit supports. Or, call …

Also, from each computer, while the 1 is in the error state, run ROUTE PRINT and paste the output here.

So long as you let it dry completely before plugging it in (passing current), there is no danger. Water only harms electrical equipment when there's current and the water creates a short.

For starters, just because it's new doesn't mean it's not defective. I've had tons of new stuff DOA out of the box. So you did your HW drivers... did you also look for BIOS updates? Worth checking as well. I would remove and reseat all memory, then run for a …

You could do this with a local HOSTS file or LMHOSTS file running on the client machine. That would certainly work with the name style you want. BIG downside is that you need to maintain it on each PC or use an include to pull in the file from a …

Mint 14 will certainly work for web, mail, social stuff, and it shines at learning new languages and development. You are about to learn alot about Git and SVN. But linux gaming has a way to go yet. There are games for linux, and steam is supporting that effort, but …

This is the best guide I've found: http://www.howtoforge.com/how-to-upgrade-from-linux-mint-13-maya-to14--nadia-with-apt What commands/process did you use to upgrade?

I'm only famliliar with printer pooling .... This seems like a very unique request. I know that with Certain queue management 3rd party software you can dupliate jobs on the fly.... I suppose someone could write a small app that would listen on the local port 9100 for inbound print …

Remove the static host entry you just added. Try it from another browser. If you ping the address from CLI, does it resolve to an IP? Is it the correct ip (match it with a ping from a working host).

You do NOT want to defrag an SSD. There is no need for it and you will probably just shorten the drive's lifespan.

It's really just where the copy of the content is stored. Think of the path taken by your PC to get web content when using a proxy. 1) Your browser makes the request. 2) Browser sends the request to the proxy. 3) Proxy relays the request to public www site. …

rneuschul has it correct. You need to verify that all the systems have syncronized to a common NTP server or to one of the public NTP servers. Ensure that you have accounted for differences in timezone and DST.

A PC can use cached credentials to logon if needed as in a laptop that is not onsite. A local DC is a design question that really depends on how the network is being deployed and 100 other factors. Most will use a local DC because it's what we are …

No. Don't do that. Do not reset the router. All you need is to replace the SSID and Security crednetials back to originals. Since you don't have these you need to get them from the family. If they don't remember it, then you can select a new SSID and new …

Are you using the meadia created from the T-42 "Create backup media" app or a generic XP disk? >> the point it wants to restart. Do you mean you complete the text portion and never complete the boot into the GUI portion?

I'm running through a Ubuntu Auto install project. Using this as the starting point https://help.ubuntu.com/12.04/installation-guide/i386/automatic-install.html I'm hitting a wall here regarding the root device. I'm thinking it has something to do with the partitioning. Here is my very simple preseed file: d-i debian-installer/locale string en_US d-i console-setup/ask_detect boolean false d-i …

You just need to shop around for them. Most current Dells have them on the 64xx and 65xx lines. Anyone would list the VGA as a post in the details so should be easy to spot

Do you mean the App or the VDI disk files? THe virtual machines will be safe (always have a backup regardless). I checked distrowatch for vbox package but it wasn't listed, but the vbox site does have different packages for the different Ubuntu releases. It's a fair bet that the …

HAve you considered Rsync over SSH instead? http://troy.jdmz.net/rsync/

Can I offer another suggestion.... IF you are looking for just a speed increase, Corsair offers a Caching SSD option. It's a small SSD drive that will cache files read from a larger HD. You install the SSD, run the caching software (only works in windows) and the files used …

I use Avast at home and for the Corp AV. IT hasn't failed me yet. Home version with just Antivirus is free to use. BTW, AVG is free, but they tend to direct you to try the paid-for suite. In the App you should be able to switch back to …

If your email server keeps mails permanantly, you can just make a backup or then delete the OST and outlook will recreate it from the current exchange mailbox contents. If your email was stored in a local PST, and exchange no longer has these messages, then you need to try …

JorgeM has it right. You will need to DL SP3 separately and install it manually using the Download link he gave you. Windows update will not function with anything less than XP SP2 IIRC.

Ennoil is Correct. This is a server side issue. Unless it's yours, you cannot do anything about it.

Not sure what you are after exactly. Do you want the script results sent to syslog? Do you want the script to send messages to syslog? There are a few ways of doing this that I can think of off the top of my head. You can just send a …

"The Cake is".

The latest CorelDRAW Suite is X6. According to their site, you need to have a previous licensed version of Suite X4 or X5. Also, Academic, Home and student, And OEM versions can't be upgraded. Other than that, seems like you need a full version. http://www.corel.com/corel/product/index.jsp?pid=prod4260069&cid=catalog20038&segid=5700006 Other than that, I suggest …

I could only find paid services to do this. Even from technet: http://gallery.technet.microsoft.com/office/Convert-EDB-to-PST-b77500b5#content

Sounds like he's missing a dependency or some 3rd application that this 'power builder' app needs to use the 'rich text module'. I think we could start with the exact package you are using "dpkg -l|grep 'power builder'" and then the eact error message from the log or screen.

Go buy a 4.99 1GB USB. You'll never use a floppy again. I only need the occasional floppy when loading up an older Windows image and need to load 3rd party drivers during setup.

'Systems' and 'Programmer' sound like 2 separate jobs to me. Systems may entail Server management, monitoring, deployment, design, etc... Programmer I would take as a software developer position. Perhaps they want someone versed in scripting solution for server systems in Bash? Maybe they mean something else related to web site …

The end users are sitting behind an older ISA running as an HTTP proxy. They get this error as a result of a setting in the ISA server. They can fix their issue by modifying a registry key in the ISA server. Lookup this key: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\W3Proxy\Parameters] Change the entry for …

You'll need to be more specific. Sharepoint has tools to check for the validity of many coponents like cert validity, user app license validity, etc....

IS this a brand new disk or was it formatted in another system with another file system? Sometimes, Windows disk management will flake out with MAC journaled file system or ext4 and the like. If the disk has nothing on it, you should be able to use any Linux Live …

Problem here is that the shared location is just a pointer to the location the files are stored. An internal user works fine because, for example, a file share on server1.local that is published in sharepoint can be accessed from the internal network. When you are external, you are clicking …

Welcome to the forums.

Did you run the GP modeling wizard on the server for thie user and workstation? What did results show. Are your changes applied? Also, what 'restrictions' are you implementing?

If you have any cisco devices that support it, the devices can export NetFLow Data to a host PC. Very similiar to how it can send logging data to a syslog host. In this case, the netflow data can be analyzed in the fly by certain software to report on …

I use no-ip.org for my home's dynamic IP address so I can VPNin easily. It works well enough, just don't like the annoyance of having to verify I use the service every month or loose the name). The static IP would be set at the router/modem, as JorgeM indicated. If …

When you run the command, do you get an error? What do you see?

JorgeM is correct. The times I've needed a 3rd party DHCP on win7, I've used TFTP http://tftpd32.jounin.net/ with success. (the app is called tftp, but included tftp, dhcp, and syslog)
