I am looking to expand my network as my current 8 port Ubiquiti PoE switch is full up. If anyone has an Ubiquiti 16 or 24 port PoE switch they would like to part with shoot me a PM with price and we can discuss. Please reach out with any questions, thank you!

I will look into SCCM. I have never messed with it but after doing some reading it may just do the trick. Thank you!

I am looking for anyone to share their knowledge experience with software distribution. We are a small company of just under 200 and I have about 75+ daily computer users. What I am hoping to do is put together a network repository of software that users can choose to install on their PCs. I...

I have been using the built-in defender with no issues. I've been using O&O ShutUp10:Free antispy tool for Windows 10 to disable some of the telemetrics. It encourages you to create a registry backup before proceeding, a process it helps with. I am running a 500 Samsung SSD and no special...

We have a FTP server running on our APPS server right now to send large CAD files back and forth between vendors. To interact with the file system our internal users connect via a FTP client to manage files to and from customers. If I wanted to map a drive to the FTP folder on the APPS server to...

We have to not only send files to vendors but be able to receive them and I am not sure how many of our vendors want to setup a torrent server to send us files. I will look into OwnCloud. The big reason for on-site hosting is we have to be ITAR compliant due to government contracts. A big...

I am wondering if anyone has any experience regarding self hosted private file sharing products. We are currently using an FTP to transfer technical data between our company and our vendors. We currently have 78 vendors and 15 internal users who would be accessing this to share files. Within...

Thank you everyone for the information. We decided to go with GoDaddy as we already have web hosting through them and want to try to consolidate some of our services if possible.

I am looking to move away from Spectrum as our DNS and was wondering what other people use. I am thinking of using GoDaddy as that is who is currently setup for this company for web hosting. I spoke with a local MSP to get suggestions and they want to re-sell me a service they provide telling me...

Son of a biscuit, that did it. I had no idea it would keep that filter on indefinitely until you turn it off. Thank you! Yeah, whoever originally setup their domain originally set it up as companyname.com

We are running a 2008 R2 that is our DC, DNS and DHCP server. I went to add a CNAME and all my records are gone. I tested the ftp.companyname.com one I recently created and it resolves correctly but the record itself is not showing up. Is there a way to get my records to show back up?

To give an update on this situation. I contacted Spectrum as that is where our name servers are hosted. I have spent hours on the phone being passed department to department with no one having the ability to get me access to our records. I was told they are trying to get out of the DNS hosting...

Doing some more digging around I found out: GoDaddy is hosting the domain name which has NS records pointing to Network Solutions account pointing to the Time Warner DNS. I created an A record for the FTP pointing to our public IP on GoDaddy. I am going to give it a little time to propagate then...

They have a bit of an unusual setup from what I can tell. The company has their domain name hosted on GoDaddy (DNS Only, Off-site). Their current website is hosted by a company called NextInteractives. From what I understand the guy running NextInteractives offered to design and host their...

I used dnsstuff.com and found that our name servers are going through ns1.biz.rr.com and ns2.biz.rr.com. What I am stumped on though is I created a CNAME webmail.companyname.com (redirects to a hosted exchange URL from Time Warner) on our DNS server and I can successfully access that outside of...

This is a small business setup. From what I can tell they have a DNS server setup on the DC. I know they have a vpn.companyname.com subdomain but I am not sure where it is setup. Before I was hired onto this company they utilized a local managed services business to take care of IT. I may have...

Quick update: On a whim I decided to try forcing my server to connect on the default FTP data port, TCP 22, and it connected no problem! After some digging around I then went to the Sonicwall interface > Network > Services, found the FTP Data ports entry and modified it be a range of...

I do not see anything in the log file trying to hit the FTP server I followed that exact KB when setting this up. I did setup ports 39000 - 39050 for data. When going through the previously mentioned KB from Sonicwall it states that this is optional. The SonicWall can determine the Data ports...

I have recently setup a FileZilla FTP server behind our Sonicwall appliance. It looks like the initial connection is all good, credentials are accepted, enters passive mode but when it attempts the MLSD command I get a connection refused. This only happens when connecting from an external IP...

I finally got everything figured out. Once I got access to the Sonicwall I was then able to add and configure an interface for the new VLAN. Then I was able to set static IPs on this new VLAN for the new devices. The company tested connection and it looks like it is all good! Thank you for the...

Hi Cmustang87, thank you for your reply. It helped set me on a path of doing a bit more research about the equipment we currently use. Since we have machines in separate buildings on separate switches I thought I should be tagging traffic to connect them to the node (on our main office...

I am new to managed switches and have a few questions regarding the Powerconnect 3548. We are a small machining business and we recently acquired a new Wire EDM machine that has the ability to keep track of water quality, remaining wire, machine efficiency, etc via a web/mobile device...

This will definitely be a small deployment and I am not too worried about this system going down. Honestly, I feel their server is a bit overkill for what this company needs. A few years ago (before I came on board) this company upgraded their existing server to a Dell VRTX with 2 PowerEdge...

I was looking at the standard as I wanted people to be able to message each other. What if the server Skype server is setup on the DC server? Would we still need additional CALs? Is these even a smart thing to do? The VAR we currently use it Insight. For some reason this company is completely...

I was recently hired to work for a small company that has about 80 users on a domain. I would like to setup a Skype for Business server to replace the aging Pegasus email system they use for internal communication since their licensing is running out soon. What I do not understand is the CAL...

I just checked and it is not on the list of approved CPUs in that link. I also did some quick Googling and found that the general consensus seems to be know due to differing bus speeds. Thank you for the offer!

I recently picked up some RAM from here to get my old system up to 8 GB. Unfortunately I have a bad RAM slot and I am getting blue screens so I am trying to find a replacement. I would really like to find one with the i/o shield. I am currently running a GIGABYTE GA-EP45-UD3R board and if...

PM Sent Stormside

It has been super busy the past few days. I am checking PMs and I will respond. Thank you! catogtp I would take either. I would like to bump my Core 2 Quad setup to at least 8 GB but it supports 16 GB. The Optiplex will supports up to 8 GB and I would like to give that to my grandmother once...

I have an older Core 2 Quad 9600 and I recently acquired a Dell Optiplex 960 from work. I currently have 4 GB 533 MHz in the Quad 9600 and no RAM for the Optiplex 960. I am looking for another 4 GB 533 MHz for the Q9600 and 4 GB for the Optiplex 960. Heatware and eBay profiles are in my...

May I ask what is up with the RAM configuration? I would be running 2 4GB sticks.

I had a Gigabyte EP45-U3DR motherboard go on me and I would like to find a replacement. It does not have to be this exact board but something similar would be nice. I was running a Q9400 with 8 GB RAM and a GTX260 so I would like support for those components. Throw me some offers and we will...

I have no idea why they are using XP 32 bit as the main OS then having me boot into a virtual machine running Windows 7 64 bit. I checked the system properties and they have 3.25 GB usable for the XP OS. I will do some research into PAE for WinXP and report back! Thanks for the reply.

I am currently attending a community college and I had a couple of questions regarding their computer setups. They are running Windows XP 32-Bit on Core-i7 machines with 8GB of ram. On these machines they are using a virtual machine running windows 7. My question is can the virtual machine be...

I want to win stuff.

Well I did not work on it yesterday as I had other projects lined up for the day so the owner gave the company the login info to remote into the systems and check them out. It took them about 5 hours so they finally got it. I have not looked to see what they did to get everything working but I...

How can I convert a .mdf to .mdb file? I have been looking and I cannot find a solution.

Ok so a tech guy named Bob emailed me and told me that I should be using the Access version of the database now and not the SQL version because its a multi-store setup. Thing is I was only given instructions for the SQL setup when this all started and didn't know they had another version even...

Under the about it says: Microsoft SQL Server Service Manager Version 8.00.760 Copyright 1991-2000 This version was specifically pointed out as the one I needed to install when I picked this job up. I do use an IP address to tell it where to connect.
