Thanks, dkediger. Yes, I am using APC UPS' with Powerchute. I'll give your suggestion a whirl. Thanks again, Hobbes

Thanks Oldbuck, The login/logoff hangups I can live with, because once they are up and running, they don't get bounced often. I'm more concerned with the backups failing to proceed. I haven't needed them yet, but I know once I'm exposed,I'll need them (thanks, mr. murphy). I'm wondering if...

Hello all, I've got two Win2K3 Std. Ed. servers that are acting strangely after performing recommended MS updates. My primary got a single security update, while my secondary got SP1. (My primary also needs SP1, but I'm rather leary about doing it until I can get handle on this) The systems...

Thanks for the tip. I did the regedt32 deal, to no avail. These things are sticky. ButI did find out that they seem to be mapped to either the adapters or the hub ports (haven't done the leg work to figure it out yet, eyes too bleary...). So I don't know if this is a "real" problem or just a...

Thanks linney, I found the ports listed in the ...\SOFTWARE\...\Ports line(The search for the ports basically all pointed me here...) Should I just make a backup of the registry section and delete them? Thanks again, Scott

Hello everyone, I'm using XP pro, SP1, and I'm attaching a number of USB devices (hubs and USB-Serial converters) to the system. The problem is, the control software I'm using needs me to specify the COM port for a given adapter. The only problem is when I go into Device Manager to change...

Hi folks, One of my users is having an issue with a new install of J2SE 1.4.1_05, JWS 1.2. She is getting an error saying that a certificate is failing to verify its authenticity when using an internal app. This sounds like a security level being set a tad high. Any ideas how to get past...

Hello all, I have been tasked with coming up with a cheap and effective digital signature solution for my company. After speaking with a few folks, it appears that PGP is the way to go. My problem is that I have never had to implement this before. So any hints, tips, pointers, etc. would be...

I am running a linux server (slackware flavor) and have a couple of printers attached to the network via jetdirect print servers. A couple of weeks ago, one of the printers stopped responding to print requests. Started the troubleshooting with the physical print server (170x) with HP, and they...

I need to make available the windows drivers for our networked printers. The server (slackware 7.1) hosts our two HP servers, and handles via samba (2.2.x)to windows machines (win2K). The powers that be want to be able to have the drivers downloaded when they add a printer through the APW in...

Hello all, I need to set up Windows drivers for my HP printers to be able to be downloaded from the Linux server during printer addition. Currently, the printers are on the server and shared out via SAMBA (2.2.2 I think)and can be added via the APW in Windows, but the user is warned that the...

I need to have two users (the boss and his admin) sync to one copy of his datebook. The file is on the server in a directory they both have access to. I have tried to point her copy of Palm Desktop to it, but it's a no go. Does anyone know how I can do this? Thanks in advance, Hobbes

Yeah, most folks usually only go one way with it, usually showing linux on windows. Going the other way is a bit rarer... Good luck... Hobbes

Thanks... But I'm a bit unclear... Would I create a new entry from scratch, or simply add the new mac id into the existing entry for the system? And if it's a new entry, can I name it anything? Basically, would it be: host notebook { hardware ethernet 00:00:88:88:aa:aa...

Sorry about that, I seemed to be a bit dyslexic with your second question. The following should help:(its from o'reilly's Running Linux, 3rd edition) Sorry about the extreme length... Hope it helps... 12.1.1. Mounting DOS, VFAT, and NTFS Partitions If you have already read the section...

Well, something relatively simple to check for the first part of your problem would be to make sure that you have rights to the directory on your Linux box. Make sure that it's not restricted to root or someone else. As for your second question, you should be able to get to it through "My...

I have a question regarding DHCP and the use of multiple network cards in one system. The boss wants to use a docking station on occasion with his laptop, and it serves up its own MAC ID. How do I alter dhcpd.conf to allow the system to grab an address, regardless of which card it sees? Do I...

With all this talk about the boot issues, did you blow away the MBR (master boot)? If not, give it a whirl. It may help. Also, check out what Carlos had suggested. It very well could be an IRQ issue. Did you through any new hardware in when you decided to give Windows a try? If so, try...

I'm assuming that the error message is /dev/bootrc not "Found", rather than "Round"... ('cause if the CD ain't round, I think I found your problem...) It seems that you may be removing the cd before it should be... The timing, from what i remember is rather tricky... I will...

Hello all, I'm a new UNIX convert, having just gone through a certification course. I've got a real softball question for you gurus out there. One topic that wasn't covered in any great depth was the issues of flavors of UNIX. Yes, we covered the various decendants of the original AT&T...
