    I know I can do it manually - line by line or column by column but I would like to do it in one single paste.....

    Pasting over protected cells

    I want to paste a 30x30 table of cells over an excel sheet of which some of the cells are protected. I was hoping that excel would just paste into unprotected cells as usual and ignore protected cells. Unfortunately this is not the case. I get an error message saying the the sheet is protected...

    Outlook 2002 Macro to extract attachment

    I regularly forward outlook emails to my primary email address and, so that all the original addresses are saved, I forward the email as an attachment to a blank email. Unfortunately this means that I have to open the attachment to extract the original email. What I need is a short macro or...

    Printing when on VPN

    My home network has a single windows 2000 server and 3 workstations - Connected to the internet (cable) through smoothwall. My home printer is on the server. When connecting to work through Contivity VPN - home network is isolated as PC becomes a member of the work network (on it's domain)...

    Printing when on VPN

    I have a small network at home and I use Contivity VPN to access my work network. It works fine - but with one major pain - When connected through VPN I can't print to my home (networked) printer. I've tried unsuccessfully getting my home network to "trust" the work network and all other...

    Smoothwall blocks FTP access

    Checking the IIS FTP logs It reports that a connection was made etc - in fact it looks like everything should have been OK It's very strange........ I'm at a loss

    Manually enter DNS Record

    Thanks Everyone I had DNS on the clients pointing at the Smoothwall Server instead of the windows 2000 server - when I fixed that and updated DNS I could ping everything. (I manually added Smoothwall). One of my clients is still not showing up in the DNS (don't know why) but everything now...

    Manually enter DNS Record

    Thanks for the reply....... I've made the entry that you suggested - but I still get the "Unknown host smoothwall" message. Interestingly the other two PCs on the network are not showing up in the forward lookup zone either. Should they also be there ? Is it necessary to add them...

    Use DC as firewall/proxy???

    I had the same setup (also using Black Ice Defender which was not so secure). I always found it a pain to lose the internet etc when I was working on the server. The best solution I found was to download a (25Meg) bootable CD called Smoothwall. It's in Linux but it's very simple to setup (I know...

    Cisco VPN on a Windows 2000 client

    I think what you're seeing is normal. It also happens to me when I connect from home to work (and it sounds like you have a similar setup to me). It's a security issue. When I'm on VPN my computer becomes part of the work network (so it excludes me from mine - even my shared printer). As soon as...

    Manually enter DNS Record

    I've setup a linux machine as a firewall and although I can ping it by IP address (10.10.1.1) it won't respond by name ("Smoothwall"). I've got round that by adding an entry in the Hosts file but I think it would be easier (and more elegant) to add it's name somewhere in the DNS so...

    I have two servers in my Domain S1 and S2. S1 is the main server and s2 is the backup.Both are running Win 2000 Server. When I first setup S1 I got everything how I wanted and burnt a GHOST image. Later I setup S2. I had a hardware problem on S1 and it went down. I fixed the problem and restored...

    Smoothwall

    I've just installed it also and it appears to need port 81 or 445 (secure) for access or port 222 to use SSH access GKDOG
