Hey, So Ive been trying to switch careers after finally graduating in December. Im having a hard time putting things Ive done in my basement and for other people onto a resume. Meaning, being able to tell someone that I am familiar with setting up networks using cisco hardware, without it sound...

One thing you have to be aware of, is that the x850 versions of Dell Poweredge Servers (1850,2850), do not support VT for virtualization. So you're going to run into a problem if you want to run ESXi. Im not sure where the HP's fall as I only had experience with the Dell servers. The only...

I have two Hitachi 1TB drives that Id like to stick into an enclosure. I can pick up a WD MyBook Word Edition II enclosure pretty cheap. Does it have to be replaced with WD drives?

I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but any of the x8xx series Dells are not able to run 64bit OS's in a VM. The only one that can is the 6850. It's a bios issue, theres a "flag" that tells that the processors are VT capable. Although you may not care, my biggest problem was that I couldn't...

It's because they are CAT 5E Type-R

^^^^^^^ has obviously never driven a turbocharged car.

We use wyse clients in out factory. I have no idea what model as I'm just the user but it's in the high 90's and an extremely dirty environment. We do lots of welding and grinding if that helps.

What model is it?

Hey all, Im a relatively new user to the Cisco game. Ive been piecing together a home lab. Ive noticed that the Gigabit ports are just referred to a standard ports just like the fa0/xx ports. Could these ports be used for two computers? Say I wanted to use the GB interfaces with two computers to...

Im not sure the dimensions for the Gen11 rails, but I did inquire to find out about my Gen8 Rapid rails, and it is a no go. The distance between the inside of the channels is too short. Heres a picture I drew up when I asked the question my writing in red, his is in black. I think the gen8 rails...

If no gigabit needed Cisco 2950 buy it now on fleabay 38.88, if you want Layer3 capabilities Cisco 3550 on the bay also, buy it now $70. If you need gig, in that budget prolly Netgear or a HP Procurve if your lucky.

Yes this is for a home lab. I just wasn't sure if you can telnet or ssh into a device through the network that you arent directly connected to. Connected to the device that is.

I have a bunch of Cisco gear coming in a couple days, and have yet to figure out a solution besides cable hopping. Once the original config is done on the gear, everything can be connected to via SSH correct? I'd like to get a 2511 or 2509 but the high cost prove otherwise. And a NM-16A card is...

I just wanted to give thanks to everyone that responded. It was very interesting to see the different answer from everyone. Thanks Again!!!

Thanks everyone for the interest. I guess I didn't think to look to see if this question has been asked before. Realistically, I could have made up my own answers to these questions, its just a moral thing I guess. Anyway, enough rambling onto the questions. 1. How much experience did you...

Hey everyone. I has an assignment for my IT Career Exploration class that involves interviewing someone in my projected job field. Problem is I don't know anyone in that field. I thought I would try here and see if anyone would be interested. I only have to ask the person 6-10 questions. I...

Im sure you've tried, but mine is Com 3 using a USB to Serial adapter. Just a thought.

Hey all, Currently I'm a CNC Laser Operator. I've been at the same place for the last 11 years. This is a union shop and it's time for a change. I'm a self taught shade-tree computer enthusiast. I'd like to go back to school, using my companies tuition reimbursement program. A local...

WHS is great for the mulitple HDD of different types. And yes you can pick what you want duplicated. One downside is only being able to use one GB Nic card. WHS wont allow the use of more then one. Im not sure if they changed this in VAIL (will be the new version).

Yeah I did see that. Although I'm pretty OCD when it comes to installs. Plus I have a Windows Home Server so backups aren't an issue.

I figured I'd post an update. I got 7 installed. I was able to do the regedit fix to be able to activate. Although I haven't figured out the problem, here's what's happening. Because of the violent shutdowns windows does every 2 hours, I think something in the hardware is messed up. The...

Yeah, I guess I never thought of the whole Ultimate to Home Premium thing. I was going off Pauls site, but like I said, I didnt even get to the part where I could use any of the info that he had posted. Come to think of it, the download had errored out and I had to resume it. So maybe...

Hey guys, thanks for the responses. I guess I should have been more clearer. The install is hanging up. Both when try booting to the DVD and when installing from windows. That's why I'm not sure if it's the disc or because I have RC1 installed.

Hey all, I figured this would be the place as scouring the interwebs makes me want to put a bullet in my head. I built a HTPC last March and installed Win7 Beta, then did the same when RC1 was released. Since now my comp is rebootig every 2 hours I figured now would be the time to install the...

Hey thanks for the responses. The firmware is the latest 1.0.1.7. I thought that with Cisco the Linksys stuff would be better. I also dont do alot of traffic mainly just wireless, and if there is heavy traffic, its days before or after these incidents I was thinking of getting a Netgear...

Ok so heres the deal. Towards the end of the life of my Linksys BEFW11S4, I started to get some problems. Most of them Im pointing to a DHCP issue. I would get a 169.xxx.x.x IP address. Usually I could unplug the router and plug it back in and things were fine. Im assuming that this was caused...
