    Sophos UTM working....but should I switch to the Unifi Security Gateway

    These are actually the two reason why I'm even considering the switch. I originally had the content filters setup and working to limit some stuff for my kids (but not other due to regex complication land) and found that it broke some of the firewall rules in place. I'm with you, that one...

    Sophos UTM working....but should I switch to the Unifi Security Gateway

    Looking for some of your thoughts on the these two front end UTM solutions for my home network. I already have a significant investment in the Unifi ecosystem with a cloud key, AP's and a couple of cameras, but I had the home built Sophos box built first and it seems to have a far more advanced...

    REMINDER: computer borging permission

    Permission not in writing can be a funny thing. It can come, it can go, and the person giving it is the only one ever in control. The rest of us are pretty much at the givers mercy.

    What happened?

    Ok, as promised. Here is what I feel comfortable saying in public: 1) This is not a case of a virus/package being deployed to unsuspecting computer users. I would think my long history and slow gain in the ranks would be proof of this. 2) In my opinion, this is a gray area involving a...

    Whats the best wireless adapter for a desktop?

    Only thing I would add - if you are going with just a B/G device - the extra bandwidth available in a pci much less pci-e would be wasted. Remember that G device is maxing out at 54mbs - far below the max spec of USB 2.0.

    OpenRelay Questions (Closing)

    If you can't telnet on port 25 from the outside world you aren't getting e-mail from the outside world either. (Unless you are doing something really funky with another relay in which case you probably wouldn't be posting about closing this one here.) :) Go back and run the test from inside...

    Network Suggestions Please

    Why can't company's start labeling their shit right? They call their devices routers when they really should call them combo devices - a router and a switch in one package. To echo what everyone else has said - op, just buy a switch. 8 port should do (don't forget you will lose one port on...

    ethernet / limited or no condutivity

    I realize that the problem has been fixed and all, but I can't just let an attitude like this go by. Michael, your comment is out of line and YeOldeStonecat deserves a bit more respect than that. The statement on SMC's site is correct - it will allow you to "extend your network" - assuming you...

    Limited Users Can't Print on Network Printer, 2003 Windows Domain

    Actually, that is a very good point. What type of printers are we talking about here? Good ol' standard Laserjet 4000's or some cheapy Lexmark that someone bought at Walmart for $30? Some drivers work "more better" than others. :)

    Limited Users Can't Print on Network Printer, 2003 Windows Domain

    I thought it would only let a normal user if the driver is already installed on the machine? Maybe it will allow a windows shared printer because the driver doesn't really get installed on the workstation? (Most of my experience here is from working in a terminal server/citrix environment...

    Limited Users Can't Print on Network Printer, 2003 Windows Domain

    How did you add the printer to the users workstation? Did you go to \\server\printername and connect the printer from there? I'm guessing its a driver permission issue. Normal users can't install drivers so you probably added the driver as an admin, but its having trouble using it. Since...

    VPN over an ISA server: some users can access resources on servers, others can't.

    If its got the same IP settings, then check your AD group memebership/permissions. One of the nicest things about ISA is that it can check against active directory user for firewall permissions.

    Hit a Folding (Stanford) milestone? Post it here:

    It may be a relatively short run, but I finally caught Toasty[H]ardOCP last week and moved into second overall on the team. Now I just gotta double my production to keep in front of Tigerbiten
