@Jacob Yes, I have an LLC from which I do consulting and contracting at the moment. I have an eye on becoming a hosted services company in the hopefully-not-too-distant-future.
I have been considering linking to it in my profile, but not sure yet.
Yeah, I have no idea what a peptide is. I have no background in chemistry at all. It was just a random name I picked after getting frustrated that seemingly any nick I chose was eventually taken somewhere, so I'd end up having to append a "_" to it. Nonapeptide has never been previously taken anywhere I've signed up to.
Then I got over my paranoia and decided to use two of my names which is sufficiently unique that no one has ever used that at any place I've tried to sign up either.
I tend to stay with windows ... especially now with win7 ... it's so much easier to admin *nix boxen from windows than it is to admin windows boxen from *nix
Or, he'll realize that the science experiment he was shown fiddling with in the first 30 seconds of the episode will fix the problem. By performing the previously mentioned modifications, of course.
La Forge: Shit we has this bigass issue that I don't knowhow to solve, and we blow if I don't solve it in 1-24 hours. Wesley: All we have to do is inverse this shit and route through the deflector La forge: holy shit thats good, lets do that. Wesley: I already set this bitch up just hit that button.

The Brothers Grunt is an animated TV series that aired from August 15, 1994 to February 20, 1995 on MTV. The series was created by Danny Antonucci (later of Ed, Edd n Eddy fame).
Overview
Premise
The series centered around an ensemble cast of pale, rubbery humanoids distantly related to human beings, all of them ostensibly male, wandering around in their underpants. Their main food staple is cheese; nevertheless they are able to eat other meals (at least potatoes: see episode #23, Not My Potato). Their single parent is a giant, mute aquatic individual, called Primus Gruntus Maximus, to...
About a bunch of semi human beings that ate nothing but cheese, wore nothing but underpants and had trouble defecating. I mean, is that brilliant or is that brilliant?
@sysadmin1138 It is not an uncommon occurrence to wander into another analyst's office and hear 'The same thing we do every ${time_of_day}, try to take over the world.'
@packs Where are Wine apps installed? I'm trying to find where the mock Windows filesystem is that Wine creates and am having trouble finding any kind of documentation
I mean, this seems like it would be a straight forward thing to know and find.
I can think of no questions to ask/ don't know how to reply to other questions, so I bid SF a good Night"{Time_Of_day} " until I wake up to reply to the "noob" rush in the early GMT-5 timezone :)
What's a good generic small-office router? Do you find things like the Cisco 800/1900-series in there, or is that more likely to be something non-Cisco?
Well, as far as what's "run into" all the time, alas it's LinkSys products. Like the RV42/82
But please, for the love of your fellow man, avoid LinkSys. :'(
SonicWall TZ 180 isn't bad, especially if you get the Advanced OS.
Never used Firebrick, but I looked into them and couldn't find anything wrong with them.
And when you say small office, I think of 50 or less people, needed standard services exposed, port forwarding, DMZ, some graphic and charting, maybe edge A/V and anti-spam built in.
It's for a blog-thing I'm working on. I need an edge device for a 30-person office that a clued networking person walking in off the street would look at and think, "Oh good, it isn't crap."
It takes a bit to get used to how SonicOS likes to have service groups made, and I still haven't gotten the hang of it much because I havne' tmucked with it much.
I mean, I was able to walk a non-techie through unboxing it and plugging it in over the phone and then I set up our services and VPN and etc. - 1.5 years later, never had to do anything else (except block all inbound SMTP from anything other than our upstream anti-spam provider).
That's the way I like my appliances.
The building has crappy power, and that TZ180 has weathered blackouts, brownouts, you name it. No corruptions, no problems.
Okay, maybe just a bit more... I had to have them plug a ethernet cable from the TZ180 to a workstation in the building that also had a wireless connection. I remoted in via the wireless interface and switched the physical link to a 192.168.168.x subnet so I could configure the SonicWall remotely. Then told the person to unhook it, plug one end into the modem and the other end into the ProCurve switch that the office runs on and boom, we were in business.
Only issue I suppose is that sometimes a reboot will make the firewall drop into the alternate firmware - the emergency store. Physical power cycle causes it to boot into the regular firmware. Is that a problem? Meh. I should look into it, but the tyranny of the urgent has made me just forget about it.
And of course the emergency firmware has no VPN settings or anything so I have to call the office and have them power cycle the thing.
It's most likely something that I mis configured or overlooked. I don't think that's the normal behaviour. I have the whole set of firmware documentation and had lofty goals of reading through it all and even getting SonicWall certified.
Some peoples go for the Cisco 5505, but I think that's seriously overkill... unless you're a Cisco guy in which case rock on.
as for splunk yes, though only fairly recently and purely because of SF - we've gone in for it big - got a great deal, some of the best sales people I've come across - love their licencing model, the product does what it's designed to do very well indeed but you need to look at it to fully understand where it's focus is
that's a nice plug-in, thanks for pointing it out - we use ACEs so that's immediately appropriate - cheers
what I'm not sure of is whether ESX will allow a single datastore to be opened CONCURRENTLY over two vmkernel vswitches as he seems to think you should be able to for performance reasons
I'm not convinced, although I have been trying to 'lab' it all morning, which seems a bit extreme to simply regain 8 rep (he DV'ed me for being 'wrong' - tool)
well the controllers could user etherchannel/lacp into the switches - but he's need need two trunk ports from each server to each switch - which he's not got, he's hoping the built in MPIO code will allow activity over more than one link
This is going to be a two step process, so stay with me. :)
First as Sam said:
Log in to your DNS manager at network solutions (assuming they are providing your DNS)
Create or edit A records for domain.com, Wiki.domain.com etc to point the IP address of your VPS
Now we're going to setup our web ...
@chopper3 yeah, backup dc's raid went on degraded after taking a snapshot of the machine. HyperV ran into trouble installing some updates. And the backup of our Exchange machine took some more hours.
I have a generic question for you.. lets say you're building yourself a small ISP, with dual DHCP servers (with failover/split range) and two DNS cache servers
assuming DHCP+DNS is run together on each machine (two machines), the obvious choice would be to define DNSA as the first DNS entry in DHCPA, and DNSB as the first entry in DHCPB
but would you set up forwarding between the DNS servers to maximize local cache?
lets say serverA crashes horribly.. would DNS server B (in this case BIND) be quick enough to understand that the forwarder is down and use regular root lookups instead?
I'd say it's more trouble than its worth myself - it's a low impact traffic type, plus it's a small user group (in real terms anyway), I'd go for as simple a solution as possible

I would like to know if the windows firewall is secure enough to leave the server accessible from the public internet without any other security system...
Thanks
@Chopper3 You may be interested to hear that my jukebox jumped from 'Root Down', to 'Wish' (NIN), to 'Born to Hand Jive' (Sha-Na-Na). I'm finding it very amusing.
A few years ago my closest friends decided that, instead of buying each other presents for Christmas, we find people on Kiva to invest in. It's felt a lot nicer.
@ChrisS Nothing meaningful, the loan amounts have been too small to hit that threshold. I've only got a total of $100 out of pocket invested. I tend to think of it as more of a donation that I can reallocate every now and then.
@packs Well if you got any back that's at least something... Most of those "investment" programs I've looked at in the past were really just misnamed donation programs. Misleading me about the "investment prospectus" isn't the best way to garner my trust or donations.
@ChrisS I live in an area full of retired types and there's a dude down the road, must be 90, MASSIVE ham radio mast in his garden, must be 100m high and wide too
@ChrisS That's an affirmative. Most of the loan periods that I've gotten into have been in the 6-12 month range. That's not a lot of time to earn interest on $25. But, like I said, so far everything I've loaned out has been fully payed back, and I haven't lost anything on currency exchanges.
Please share your opinions, FAQs, HOWTOs, best practices (or links to the one you think is the best) and your fears and thoughts about the whole migration (or should I just call it a new piece of tech?).
