@DennisKaarsemaker It's good. I'm conslutting as sysadmin at the state employment agency thingy; there are good people around me and the systems aren't very challenging but at least they're a different set of systems
@DennisKaarsemaker indeed - the challenges here are political rather than technical, but then I've found that's true of most large organisations, whether private or public
@cole It makes quite a lot of sense, really. His secret lair is contained within a dormant volcano. At that point 3k for a chair is really just a rounding error so you might as well get a good one.
@NathanC I had one at the previous employer. My riding trainer said it showed that I got better back muscles about a month after I started using the chair.
example.com is my domain but I want that an other user can send email as microsoft.com. How can I do ?

The other trick to get awesome Herman Miller chairs are to find damaged ones. You should then be able to file a warranty claim and get the repair parts.
Please understand my comment isn't meant to be surly, and I'll delete it after you edit your OP. Right now what you have is a great story for us. I say this because there isn't any error codes, blue screen images (links due to your rep), ticket notes from the MS ticket, event logs, hardware specs, what was happening when it started experiencing this, etc. to go off of. It would be a bunch of guesses at this point without that info. If you can modify your question with that info, it could help the experts, otherwise there's very little to go on. — TheCleaner44 secs ago
@JennyD - I get your wanting to close the Exchange send as question, but there isn't technically anything wrong with wanting to send as another user, even another domain, provided you have legit business to do. It's not common though, so I get your point.
@NathanC I have the gift.
Oh, and my fun task for the day (since I wear all the hats right now)? I get to replace a hdd in a macbook air running BootCamp that only boots to Windows 7.
@NathanC Clustering wouldn't allow you to split the traffic between the members, just one server would host each site (or whatever unit clustering allows, rusty)
So if you're only going to have two servers anyway, I suppose it doesn't really matter, though you couldn't take advantage of working hardware to boost peak capacity...
Performance isn't as much of an issue...just availability.
It's a PITA because the websites I'm supporting are applications that have their own installers and various things with them...so everything has to be exact and I repeat installs and configurations for each setup
I have an osx 10.6.4 machine I need to redo, but no DVD. If I "get" the ISO image is that good enough? Meaning where can I get the existing license/key on the mac? Or should I ask on the apple SE site?
@Iain He flagged his own answer there with gibberish about negativity and downvotes. I declined the Flag asking him to make sure his flag reasons make sense next time...
I feel like I'm doing my SQL Server setup wrong...I might be able to get a prod/staging/dev environment on a single instance. Currently, if I want a new instance of SQL Server I have to 1) set it up as a failover cluster, 2) give it a unique name, and 3) give it its own IP address...
554 denied -> look it up on their website, "The error message “554 Denied” means that we have rejected the message as spam. This is either due to the content of the message or the reputation of the sending IP address." <-- And that's the whole of their reasoning/explanation.
Hi, James - you have no idea what you're talking about or what the OP was asking. Additionally, you answered on a 4 year old question that had already been answered. — Dan52 secs ago
@DennisKaarsemaker Heh. Yeah. And considering that it was at job[-3], it usually involved assaulting staff, stealing money, or sleeping with the clients (ewwww!!!!).
@GaganVERMA It's not of much use if you can't manage it... On another, but not unrelated note, This is *NOT* a place for 'Live Support', ask on the main site.
@GaganVERMA If you would like to contact me via netdirect.ca, we would be happy to work with you to restore functionality to your server as an emergency call.
@GaganVERMA let's be really clear here. This is not a place for live support. You must ask on serverfault.com and explain exactly what you did already. Maybe someone will help there
@GaganVERMA So far we've just been poking fun at you, which I think you didn't get. So there you go. We don't do live support in here, go to the main site.
I wish this chat room would have a blocker on entry where you would have to type in "I agree to not use this room for free support, and I will ask my question on the site first"
@JoelESalas I very VERY rarely remember my dreams. Today I remember thinking when I woke up this morning "WHOAH that was a really weird dream." But I have no idea what the content of the dream was.
@Magellan That's bad, but not as bad as copying a 2 year old CentOS forum question word-for-word - to ask about an issue my grandmother would be able to describe in 3 sentences
@MikeyB dude, I had a dream that there were bugs that looks like hair and they crawled into your back. You could only kill them with carpet cleaner. Wish I didn't remember that.
@ewwhite remember the link I posted from Brent Ozar's blog where he recommended people to buy consumer SSD's for a enterprise dell server? He also runs the DBA reactions blog... tmblr.co/Z14uHtxHS-jf
@pauska Ah. Be aware there's a plugin to do multi-domain-mapping using multi-site. I've found it pretty straight forward for consolidating a few domains into one dashboard. wordpress.org/plugins/wordpress-mu-domain-mapping
@pauska You get one WP dashboard which allows WP Network Admins to manage all the sites without separate instances. You can delegate per-domain admins for their site-specific work. I had a client, with three different domains (and three WP installs) that wanted to manage it all from one place. The domain mapping plugin made it possible.
Okay, lot's of posts around the internet on this subject. But I haven't been able to find an answer I was looking for. I installed SQLS 2012 on Windows Server 2012. I installed the Engine and the Reporting Server. In the Database Engine Configuration I just checked Windows Authentication Mode and...
@Iain @MichaelHampton Mr. Butthurt's questions are frequently rather borderline too. Almost shopping or give-me-the-codez but not quite enough for me to VtC it.
Where is a useful reference for the sdset command?
I can read and read, and I have yet to find a straightforward list of steps to say:
Service: App
User: Joe
Grant Joe start/stop/restart to App
(Why can't it be that easy? )
Note: Getting sdset wrong can cause a service to disappear from Serv...
I need IPTables, like everyone else, but I don't use it enough to really keep my knowledge complete and fresh.
The setup utility in CentOS is too basic. It doesn't seem to allow me to open up custom ports, just standard ones.

I am ssh'ing into the remote CentOS server with Bash. I was trying to stop port 8080 and so I typed stop 8080 with "root" privileges. Now, the server is scheduled for maintenance in 8080 minutes as per messages on the server bash. I need to cancel this maintenance schedule. How do I do it?
Gratulations. You selected a open source database not knowing what you really do and now it comes back and hits you. Real life. Deal with it - either replace the database with something commercial likely, or put in hardware or rework to sharding with less indices. — TomTomNov 27 '11 at 21:31
Even the Q @MichaelHampton answered is with the exact same form and attitude ... "The CentOS installer is too basic for my needs" what a narcasistic asswipe
Well, seriously - being the guy who designed the system to an unworkable state telling people you made a big mistake that their statement if ignorant and arrogant shows... you may want to change jobs. McDonalds always needs people to serve burgers. Really. This WAS your design mistake. — TomTomNov 29 '11 at 5:31
Mainly because my ex girlfriend kept posting drunkenly "deal with it" to this girl I slept with when we were broken up when she asked if we were back together. I kept deleting it and she just kept doing it.
@MDMarra hah...reminds me of sending messages to all the Novell clients in a network in the past accidentally saying "help" when trying to get the syntax for the command.
The good news is that if you becomes a slightly more valuable member of the community, you'll be able to cast re-open votes on many of the garbage questions that you seem so fond of. — MDMarra17 secs ago
@MathiasR.Jessen That package is the same as I mentioned earlier, it's patched with a MySQL->MSSQL translator that breaks lots of plugins etc
@MichaelHampton I've been running PHP inside IIS for over a year without a single issue.. care to elaborate on what you find difficult with it? It's an official PHP windows package. Same goes for MySQL, official windows binaries and tools there as well, but I haven't actually used it in production yet..
@Magellan You need to look at this from a different perspective.. You're a Linux guy, while we're a windows shop. It makes sense to standardize everything on the same OS, as it helps monitoring, troubleshooting and not least educating other people on the same team
As a Linux guy, I'm already accustomed to working in mixed environments, with half a dozen different distributions, and a few stray Windows boxes thrown in for good measure.
And it's not relevant at all to the question I asked
@MichaelHampton right - and wouldn't you love to deploy some linux servers that could do the same thing as the windows servers and get a standardized environment?
At the risk of being assigned to the "bad DBA" club... I did something desperate, and may have to undo it.

After installing a low cost eSATA board, my SQL Server is intermittently unresponsive (seemingly when there is a lot of IO to the eSATA drive).
