Hi All - Having some weird things happen that I can't figure out. Hopefully I can explain. I have three devices: my PC, an AP and my wireless controller. PC - 10.200.0.99/16 AP - 10.5.16.11/24 Controller - 10.5.1.32/24 I'm having trouble getting my AP to adopt over L3. From my...

Hi All - We currently have three DNS servers here. Two internal (primary and secondary) and one external. We have started thinking about moving external DNS off to a hosted service...something like DNSMadeEasy. Good idea, bad idea? Why/why not? Thanks!

All - Our network used to be flat Layer 2 to all buildings. We are now working on doing L3 to all buildings. Problem: With L2 across the entire campus, I could have a building on VLAN 40 (10.3.x.x subnet), and also have a server directly connected to the core on VLAN 40 as well. Now...

Hi all - I'm using this Powershell script to send me an e-mail every Monday morning about snapshots in my VM environment -- very handy! However, we use Veeam for backup and replication, and all of my VMs are replicated to an off-site ESXi host with _replica after their name. All of the VMs...

Hi All - I'm seeing the following on my DHCP server: Sep 14 10:28:55 elroy dhcpd: DHCPDISCOVER from 30:85:a9:12:e5:8e via 10.45.0.1 Sep 14 10:28:56 elroy dhcpd: DHCPOFFER on 10.45.244.230 to 30:85:a9:12:e5:8e (Gino-PC) via 10.45.0.1 Sep 14 10:28:56 elroy dhcpd: DHCPREQUEST for...

Is there any software out there that will allow me to centrally manage and PUSH updates to all of my Windows servers? I don't believe WSUS does that, correct?

We already own Veeam and utilize it for backups. It's just that I've noticed they have something called Enterprise Manager that comes with their Backup and Replication product. I was curious what Enterprise Manager does.

Can anyone explain to me what Veeam Enterprise Manager is used for? I can't find much info about it on Veeam's website. Seems to be just a web interface for Backup and Replication?

Just curious if anybody has upgraded from Veeam 5.0.2.230 to Veeam 6. Their documents make it seem easy and straight forward. Just wanted to see if anybody has done so and ran into any problems. Any gotchas I should be aware of? Thanks!

Hi All - Trying to configure QoS and am getting a little confused on some things. First, we are using Avaya as our VoIP solution. We have ProCurve switches at the edge and Cisco in our core. I think one of my main problems is I can't seem to wrap my head around DSCP. I *think* I...

Hi all - Not sure if this is in the right place, but.... If I am running MySQL with six databases in it, and do mysqldump -u user -ppassword --all-databases > backup.sql to backup all the databases; is it easy enough to restore a single database from that backup? Or do I have to restore...

Thanks everyone. At this point, we just want a place to centralize all the logs and a place to be able to view them. I suppose down the road we may want reporting and trending capabilities.... I've checked out Kiwi prior to posting this; and I've never heard of Splunk. I guess it's...

Hi all - Just looking for some recommendations for syslog servers. Open-source or paid is fine. Price isn't an issue as far as I know. Thanks!

You are correct, simply changing your DNS will get you around this. We're using a piece of software called Netreg to do this, and unfortunately we are stuck with it for another year or so due to budget constraints. We are planning on going to a full blown NAC solution in 2012 or 2013 which...

Hi All - I have two DNS servers. Our Linux one is used for residence halls and gives out a bogus DNS to people until they've registered. And our Windows 2003 server runs our true DNS for everyone (including residence halls once the person has registered). I'd like to setup the Linux...

Sorry, typo. Mb.

Hi All - Is there a movement of admins moving away from backing up to tape nowadays? We had a discussion about it today at work, and it seems to make sense to me. We currently have a 250MB pipe to the Internet -- soon to be 500MB; so, bandwidth isn't an issue as much as it used to be, which...

Hi All - We have 7 Dell M610s running ESXi 4.1 and looking for a VM backup solution. Currently checking out Veeam and vRanger Pro (VizionCore). Anybody have experience with either of these products? Would love to hear the good and the bad on both.

I've also posted this in the OS/Linux forum. Not sure where is more appropriate.. I have used the following mount command in SUSE 11 SP1 successfully, but would now like to stick it in my /etc/fstab so it gets mounted on startup: mount -t cifs -o...

Hi All - I have used the following mount command in SUSE 11 SP1 successfully, but would now like to stick it in my /etc/fstab so it gets mounted on startup: mount -t cifs -o file_mode=0666,dir_mode=0777,username=user,password=pass //10.2.1.41/Docufide /mnt/docufide Can i put the...

We have a Nortel Option 61C switch. I have found the following. But my minimal testing has failed thus far: Option 191 -- VLAN-A:240. Option 128 -- Nortel-i2004-A,10.50.0.10:4100,1,5;10.50.0.10:4100,1,5. Where option 191 is the VoIP VLAN number and option 128 is the signaling server...

Hi all - We are slowly moving towards a larger VoIP deployment. Currently, when an IP phone goes out, we give it a static IP and have to manually enter the IP of the signaling server -- we'd like to get away from this process. We have VoIP on it's own VLAN. I think I've heard that you...

Not very long. Just as of last weekend. I'm guessing I'd have to recreate the domain, all user accounts, all printers, etc...? And then set security on all the shared folders again? I guess I don't understand why using an HTTP redirect isn't working in IIS. Very confusing... Very...

I see there is a Rendom.exe utility. Is this worth a try, or would it be a giant headache?

Any chance I can rename or modify my current domain to use .local? Or would I have to start over from scratch?

Well that sucks. Wish I had known that before. Now it seems that even http://www.hopecouncil.org doesn't want to work. I'm gonna need to look into that hack a bit more tomorrow. Hopefully there are some people on here willing to help me out because it didn't quite make sense to me...

So I recently setup a domain for small non-profit company. The domain is hopecouncil.org, but they also have a website hopecouncil.org. Users can sometimes get to http://hopecouncil.org in a browser and sometimes they can't. When I do an nslookup hopecouncil.org I get the IP of the...

Is this a decent gigabit switch for a small non-profit organization who does nothing more than web browsing and file sharing? http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16833122058&cm_re=gigabit_switch_24_port-_-33-122-058-_-Product

I have them on Google Apps since it is free for non-profits.

I've also felt that the server is a little overpowered, but I'm okay with that. If thought about maybe going to UDIMMs instead of RDIMMs for the memory, or at least from 8GB to 4GB. The lab will be used as a resume work shop for people just getting out of prison and looking for jobs. They...

YeOldeStoneCat - Yes, three year warranty on it and they already have an account at TechSoup. Also, what is Windows Foundation Server? Marley1 - I've been debating on the redundant psu, still unsure if I'm gonna get it or not; it's an extra $299 straight from Dell. Same with RAID, i've been...

Hi all - I'm currently upgrading the server for a local non-profit in my area. They currently have a server someone built running Windows Server 2000 (not sure of the exact specs, something like 512MB RAM, 1GHz processor, 40GB hard drive) and 8 machines mapping drives to the shares on the...

Hi all - I'm looking for a way to monitor my fiber links between buildings. A week or so ago I set up Cacti to do just this, but I'm having trouble believing the results I'm getting from Cacti. We are a college campus and I want to monitor the bandwidth that gets on the fiber. In the picture...

Hi all - Not sure if my title correctly says what I'm trying to do, so, let me explain. Let's say our domain is example.com. Our e-mail addresses use example.com (i.e., veedubbs@example.com) and we run our own DNS (running BIND 8.1.2, yes, I know it's old!) server on-site for example.com...

awesomeo - Yes, all DMZ servers have static public IPs. Yes, ASA is performing NAT for internal 10.2.x.x servers. I can't say 100% that it is only Windows. But I have only personally seen it (and have only heard about it) on Windows machines. Yes, I can ping the server even when a machine...

Xipher - This is what I see for the option: dns Use the created xlate to rewrite DNS address record I'm not too sure I understand what that would actually do. And just to reiterate, we DO NOT have this problem with any servers in the DMZ, only with internal servers. I...

Well, i was able to run clear xlate and am still having the same issues with all internal servers with or without the TCP/embryonic connections. Looks like there is something bigger going on here...

Awesome! Thanks for all the info! I will definitely be trying this the next I am able to! Thanks again!

Sorry bout that. I've always called them static routes! Thanks for fixing me! So even though I've taken out the 100 70 on a server it will not take effect until I do clear xlate? What exactly is that command doing? Will it kill any connections or anything like that? Just want to...
