Hi... Can anyone find the posts with the competition winners from the anniversary competition a few years ago? My nas has a dead drive and I am trying to work out roughly when I would have bought the drives... I have been searching for the past 20 minutes without any luck - can't remember what the posts where called, and I can't find the email from Stack Exchange :(

Can someone explain to me why 127.0.0.1:3389 is closed. But when trying the same port on the address assigned (example 192.168.1.10) to the NIC is open?

eicto

@SgtOJ probably it not listen on localhost, check netstat

SgtOJ

I have. It isn't. Only listening on 0.0.0.0:3389

I should rephrase my question. Why is listening on one but not the other?

eicto

@SgtOJ 0.0.0.0 include localhost

SgtOJ

You meant: includes? Right? If so, then this is why I am confused.

Sorry... I was wrong.

Q: How to know currently open ports on the Windows Firewall?

On Windows XP and Windows Server 2003, I can know currently open ports on the Windows Firewall using the following command: netsh firewall show state However, on Windows 7 and Hyper-V Server 2008 R2, when I give that command, it says: No ports are currently open on all network interfaces. ...

windows-server-2008 windows-7 windows-firewall

SgtOJ

3:41 AM

It's not listening on 0.0.0.0.

eicto

woa

it listen only on 192.168.1.10 ?

SgtOJ

Yep.

eicto

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\TerminalServer\WinStations\R‌DP-Tcp\

check here if any settings about ip

Bob

@SgtOJ wait... are you trying to use RDP to connect the same machine? o.O

SgtOJ

Nope.

A RDP port monitor test to see if the 3389 is open. However, the test is ran on the system itself via telnet using the 127.0.0.1:3389.

Bob

3:46 AM

Then... what are you trying to do?

hm.. perhaps the RDP server only binds itself to external network interfaces?

SgtOJ

This monitor normally works for most systems of my clients but it's failing for this one system for one client.

Bob

o.O

mydigitallife.info/…

are all of those systems set up exactly the same way?

SgtOJ

Thanks... Read through that earlier.

I can't be completely sure. I work with too many clients who all have a few to very many servers (mostly Win08 R2). This monitor is setup up on most of them.

This is the first time I ran into this type of issue.

The telnet isn't trying to connect. Only test to see if it's open or not.

I know that you can't RPD to localhost.

Q: Windows Explorer's folder selection moving up and down when selected

Windows 7 file browser pane of Windows explorer really annoys me. When I expand(double click) a folder which is in the half of the screen it is moved to the bottom of the screen. Some times an item is moved to the top of the screen. Screen here I mean is the scroll pane. How to disable this op...

windows-7 windows-explorer

is it just me or does anyone get what he's asking?

Bob

@Sathya I can kinda guess...

The tree view to the left

Sathya

@Bob perhaps you can edit the question to make it a bit clear?

Bob

when you double click on a folder (or otherwise expand it) the view scrolls so the folder you just expanded is up at the top

Sathya

@Bob ah you mean the tree view that keeps expanding/collapsing

Bob

sometimes, it scrolls so the expanded folder is at the bottom (I just tried)

never bothered me before.. I'm not sure that's what he's asking either

Interesting: it seems that the first time a folder is expanded, it moves to the bottom

every time after that, the same folder is moved to the top

by move, I mean the view is scrolled so the folder is positioned in that position

Sathya

stupid oracle

not setting a size for a varchar leads to a 'no left paranthesis error'

how the hell does this make sense?

Bob

@JourneymanGeek well, if it's expecting varchar(#) and you enter varchar, you're missing a left parenthesis

Journeyman Geek

@Bob: the code was generated by one of oracle's own tools ;p

Oracle is still stupid ;p

Sathya

7:30 AM

@JourneymanGeek oi

@Bob it's varchar2 btw :P

Journeyman Geek

anyway, I only wasted an hour solving it ;p

Bob

@Sathya eh, I just guessed

@JourneymanGeek ok, that's stupid

Journeyman Geek

;p

got it fixed, up, everything is working.

Sathya

@JourneymanGeek what tool was that & what script did you generate?

Journeyman Geek

so thats 20 marks in the bag out of 100 ;p

@Sathya: oracle datamodeler - simple script that converted an ERD into a DDL file for creating the database

Sathya

7:44 AM

ok

@Sathya: Bite the bullet and watch the (9 second) video he linked to. It shows the problem perfectly, and it would be a tough one for many native English speakers to describe adequately, so please don't hold the fact that he isn't one against the OP (+1 from me to make up for the downvote). I've been annoyed by the exact same problem and would love to see a solution for it. — aaamos 9 mins ago

Guys, i've got an old laptop here that the manufacturor doesn't trade anymore (no website etc) and while looking for a manual for it online there's lots of people looking for drivers for it... Now i've had a hunt and found the original drivers CD... Is uploading them to Dropbox and posting the links and info up on SU valid 'use' for the site?

Hennes

That might be an interesting legal problem.

Journeyman Geek

@HaydnWVN: Thats a bit tricky

Hennes

I think I woul djust put it on my own website, wait for it to get spidered and grabbed by the internet archive (wayback machine), and then delete

Journeyman Geek

might work too

or post an answer linking to that website, explaining the whole circumstances

Like how I link the baywolf mirror of the HP format tool

HaydnWVN

So providing the drivers for others, when they're not otherwise easily available is legally wrong? :o

What if i were to share the files through some other anonymous site and then post on SU saying i'd 'found' them?

Hennes

8:20 AM

That would be morally wrong.

And right and legally right are two quite different things

And a lot of it may depend on which country you live in.

HaydnWVN

Yeah that's what infurates me, especially when doing support

I'm in the UK

Hennes

Lets just say that what might be a good solution is not something I am going to recommend on a public chat line.

Q: Can I search for the IP address of the DNS server of my internet connection using UNIX tools?

I have forgotten it, and do not want to call the ISP. I was wondering if I could use UNIX tools like ping, nsloookup, or traceroute to search for the DNS server.

unix networking

worth migrating over?

HaydnWVN

@Hennes I fail to understand why i'd personally get in legal hot water providing something the OEM cannot do because they havn't existed and traded for a number of years?

Journeyman Geek

@HaydnWVN: you expect law to make sense? ;p

HaydnWVN

8:27 AM

@JourneymanGeek Expect, no... But the fact i'm providing for 'free' what the OEM is not doing themselves?

Journeyman Geek

@Sathya: OP is unlikely to select a right answer

better for someone to ask afresh methinks

bay-wolf.com/downmain.htm @HaydnWVN: well, he's been around for years...

Sathya

Legally: nope.

Blog - Stack Exchange: It’s OK to Ask and Answer Your Own Questions

Jeff Atwood on July 01, 2011

The FAQ has contained one key bit of advice from the very beginning:

It’s also perfectly fine to ask and answer your own question, as long as you pretend you’re on Jeopardy! — phrase it in the form of a question.

So …

if you have a question that you already know the answer to

if you’d like to document it in public so others (including yourself) can find it later

it is OK to ask, and answer, your own question on a relevant Stack Exchange site.

To be crystal clear, it is not merely OK to ask and answer your own question, it is explicitly encouraged. …

BAck in my days, in 1991 when I arrived at uni, the web was still new A few years later (1996-ish) several people already started writing search engines. One of them was track which also hired a fellow member of the board of MCGV stack (the uni's computerclub)

Another one was Merien ten Houten who kept using the clubs computer as his office (We used to answer the phone with "Hello, with Stack. This is not Meriens office")

Oliver Salzburg

I assumed it's just always on

HaydnWVN

But then I kept reading everywhere that it's supposed to be off when flat

@HaydnWVN I wouldn't say "too much" :D

HaydnWVN

Ooooh, maybe you've been fondling it instead of touching it in a manly way?

Oliver Salzburg

Well, it was broken when it came out of the box

@HaydnWVN Must...resist...clicking...star...

HaydnWVN

@GrahamWager xD

Graham Wager

I have a bad habit of starring things just because they'll be very out of context in the right hand pane :P

Graham Wager

@IvoFlipse I haven't gotten my anything yet :(

HaydnWVN

@GrahamWager Isn't that the whole point of starring things? :o

@GrahamWager Click it! :P

Graham Wager

@HaydnWVN Haha :P Maybe...

@Boris_yo Hey

Lol guys... Just spent all morning and some of this afternoon (~5 hours) repaving 4 old laptops in use for training next week... My manager gives me the software to install... It runs and reports it needs newer hardware. What a waste of 60% of my day :E

Oliver Salzburg

@Boris_yo Haven't seen you in a while

Boris_yo

@OliverSalzburg Ditto

Oliver Salzburg

@Boris_yo How have you been? :)

Boris_yo

@OliverSalzburg Normal

Oliver Salzburg

Heh. Alright then :)
