GM2005, greatly appreciated. ;-) I think I'll try reading 2 minutes of documentation next time before erasing flash and changing registers w/o backing up or documenting next time...... Thanks again, jw88 How many times must one be bitten before learning?.....

Also...the one WIC came from the 1721 in a working environment so I know it shouldn't be a hardware compatibility problem. Could a version of IOS work with the card in one router but not another model? Thanks again, jw88

I have two cisco routers (1721 & 1750), each with c1700-y-mz.121-27b.bin installed. The problem is the 1721 does not seem to recognize a WIC card in either slot (WIC 1DSU T1). Both cards work fine in the 1750 but appear dead in the 1721. The 1721 was pulled from a working environment and...

Postini is a hosted solution with excellent results. Not sure how expensive it is but it does a great job. I believe AppRiver is another hosted solution if you want to go that route. We use DoubleCheck in our office. Built around open-source SpamAsssasin with the a double-check web gui...

I have a Nokia IP40 and a Checkpoint Edge W. My goal is to use the DMZ port on each to setup a vpn connection using local ip addresses (172.16.3.253 & .254/30) I can't seem to get this working. The vpn wizard establishes the connection but I can't pass traffic between the two lans. When I...

I have a brand new Sonicwall TZ190 running firmware 3.6 EOS. I used the setup wizard to configure the network settings and outbound access works fine. However, when I tried to create NAT and access rules to allow inbound connections to a server, I see the traffic is blocked in the log. I...

Excellent information again. I might be bold enough to give your idea a shot. Knowing what I about the normal boot sequence, it makes sense. I'll post my results either way. So I guess I shouldn't have labeled my drives with sticky-notes? ;-)

The problem isn't your firewall or av software....it is totally unrelated. Spammers have software to obtain email addresses, possibly from websites you have visited if you entered an e-address, email replies you have sent, your comapany website, and sites like these if people list their...

Blister911, thanks much. That's the information I was after...how the boot process works when scsi drives are involved with a raid controller. (ML350 G3 by the way) Before your post, I considered doing exactly what you said. However, if I pull the old drives, delete the array and the...

I'm not sure I follow you on mirroring the new drives and then converting to RAID 5. Does that process somehow extend the system partion? From what I read on the web, Partition Magic does not install on a Windows Server OS. I'd consider using Acronis Disk Direcotry Server Edition but that's...

I was really hoping to stay away from touching the original drives so I have them in case of problems. Does anyone konw if the HP ACU boot disk allows a person to set partitions as bootable? If so, I think I can pull the original drives and when the server boots, it should find the boot...

I have a Proliant G3 with a Smart Array 641 controller and 3 36GB drives (RAID 1+0) running Windows 2003. It has two partitions with the system partition, originally 4GB, now running out of space (only 280 MB left). We purchased 3 more 36 GB drives (all same specs) and I installed them and...

Thanks much for the info. Looks to be exactly what I need.

I need to access an Oracle 8i server running on Win2K server. I'll be accessing it from a WinXP Pro laptop and would like to know what client software I need to install and how to get it. It appears that I can't get client software for 8i from the Oracle website anymore. I inherited a C#...

Can anyone tell me where to get practice tests/questions or study guides for the Nokia Security Administrator exam? Boson doesn't sell a practice test anymore and all I got from a Nokia CSR was to try and buy course guides from a reseller. The NSA I & II books sell for $250 each! I do have...
