Do a search for Antivirus here, or search for "VirusP" as an author. You'll see several threads about this topic.

I thought this was general knowledge anyway, or maybe I just thought it was. In any case, I will have to take a look at my P4PE and see if it will work. I *just* installed WinXP after a nasty tumble with Debian (Unstable branch) so I didn't have a need to try it. If anyone else gets a chance to, post your results. One more thing, if you have an app that supports SMP, but manually, do you think it will work alright using HT? I wonder how Q3 would behave in this case.

Well, if it isn't supported, then there's probably a good reason. The only thing I could think of is simply making sure that there is no kernel buffer being used, and loading a vesa driver. Both of these are in you XF86Config/XF86Config-4 file under the video card section. There are a couple of items to toggle in the kernel to make it work optimally with the newer cards from ATi, but I don't know if these optimizations include your card, or if your distro uses these or not.

I was going by the definition of DNS client here: http://www.microsoft.com/technet/treevie...cs/win2ksvc.asp But if it works for you without it, then cool. I wouldn't disable it (nor many of the services) myself though. Just never had the need.

The last peer-to-peer game I played was Forsaken, and that bombed. While they would more than likely have better net code, I still don't think it would be such a hot idea to implement.

That's DHCP client, not DNS client. DNS is for name resolution, and yes you're gonna need it.

OK, I have no idea what the problem is. Have you tried the 'drake forums? I'm a Debian user myself, and I haven't seen that issue.

Yeah, having a dynamic IP doesn't make you anymore secure. The purpose of a MAC is for the hardware to have its own identity that's "hard-wired" into it. If you were to somehow guess another MAC that was out there, that would be the time that you might have problems.

Yeah, I use a Linksys BEFSR-41 4 port switch/router with 2 Windows 2000 servers and 2 Debian boxes. All of them can manage the router through a web browser.

All of my friends that have had DSL have been unhappy in general, and the only service that's performed worse has been wireless contention-based setups (like Sprint Broadband). Although SBB users have mentioned getting huge download speeds (5-8Mbps!), the performance swings wildly under load, latency is bad enough to make many apps like VPNs and PCAnywhere fizzle out, and they are prone to outages. I really wanted DSL because I remember how it was supposed to be a lot better than cable, but when I was finally able to get it I just haven't wanted to switch.

Actually, I dug this up and emailed the author: http://www.microsoft.com/technet/treevie...vgs/sgsch03.asp He's up[censored] his article now.

Sweet. When I moved from my apt to my house my d/l speeds went up from around 160KB/s to around 240KB/s to many sites. I usually get a steady 260KB/s for Debian updates (one of my servers is at uchicago.edu, and the other is a debian.org box). News server transfers in PAN are pretty quick too (around 240KB/s). This calculates to roughly 1.9-2.0Mbps, which isn't bad for a 1.5M/384K connection. I also get 45KB/s uploads, which is pretty close to my rated 384K (48KB/s).

Odd, with my RR in Wisconsin I get different IPs without the need to swap NICs. Where's yours at? Mine doesn't change too often, but it does change enough to mandate the use of a dynip client. Bursar, have you tried a sniffer to see what's coming in? There are several out there that are free, but here's one that I have tinkered with on occasion: http://www.objectplanet.com/ You *might* be able to pick up on the traffic even if it's directed soley at your modem.

Quote: I honestly don't think this will have the impact intended, AOL will just toss the box in the dumpster, end of story. Or worse, simply relabel all the current version returned CDs and ship out them out again.

Not necessarily. If the kernel has it compiled in, or there is a module loaded (check using lsmod, you might have to be root/su to use it) for ide-scsi then you will get errors trying to mount the CD-ROM. It will be something like "can't load device, bad filesystem, bad block, blah blah, btw, could this be a SCSI device?". And yeah, that's heavily paraphrased . So, if the module is loaded but you aren't using /dev/scd0, /dev/scd1, etc. then you will get that error. It's an all or none affair.

What's it doing? What's the error? Remember, when using IDE CD burners you have to use SCSI emulation (either compiled in the kernel, which would mean a small addition to your boot loader text file, or the "ide-scsi" module has to be loaded if it was compiled as a module) in order for them to work.

Well, RH8 does let you verify your CDs at the very beginning of the installation. So, all you have to do is just run a CD check on all of them. Besides, you only need the first 3 to get the installation done, so you should be fine.

Installing Exchange 5.5 is fairly easy if you've worked with Exchange 2000, just remember to disable/remove SMTP or you will be prompted with an error that another service has taken control over SMTP on that box. You can also run the optimizer (I can't remember the specifics, but it should give you one shot right after install to run it) to set the cap on used memory (good idea to do this, or else it will gobble up all available memory and while it's "supposed" to release it when asked, it rarely does) and then move the DBs to different partitions/drives.

Well, it's been a while since I have installed Exchange 5.5, but I could have sworn that had to disable/remove the SMTP service as Exchange provides its own. I just took a look at my 5.5 server, and SMTP is not installed at all. Now, I do know that you have to install the SMTP service for Exchange 2000, as Exchange requires it. So in that case, you would be in the clear. However, I would recommend that you go to SP6 with the latest security roll up, as there have been a *LOT* of fixes since SP4.

You didn't get a chance to make a copy of what you downloaded so far?

Unfortunately, error 1000 is one of the most general errors there is and 1202 can be related to DBs, and therefore could simply mean that there was no data in the DB matching the request, a bad connection, or a failed/corrupt DB. I would recommend hitting the knowledgebase to try and filter out what it might be. Also, make sure to get all the DCs up to date on their patches and MDAC upgrades (for the DBs). With respect to the iusr account, you *want* that to be a local account on a member server that's hosting IIS. In other words, you should never host IIS on a domain controller, and since IIS would have to be on a member server then by default you would have a local account. http://search.microsoft.com/advanced_search.asp?qu=&siteid=us/itresources

Yeah, the did that in GTMO back in '90, and you could even buy cars and Harleys through the base exchange (not like there were any other dealers on base). It was this mega-mall thing.

At the moment, it has to be KDE (2.2.x). It's really easy to use and very logical. However, I do like Enlightenment and Fluxbox, but the skinning is a bit complicated for me right now with the amount of time I'm willing to commit to it.

Sweet! Thanks!

How does the Extigy connect? Is it USB? I use ALSA in Debian, and that was an adventure to install. However, after going through it once, it's pretty easy to do over and over again. http://www.alsa-project.org/
