Hi, I've been using snapshots to install my exchange server - e.g. test an install - then roll back and test another one. Now I have it setup sweetly - e.g. all the settings and items I need. Do I need to consolidate the othersnapshots or just delete them? here is where I'm at...

Had a look at EVC on the VMware docs and that's answered my question. Thanks a lot mate :)

So I was planning to get this processor: (CORRECTION it's an i7!) http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B004FA8NLO/ref=ox_sc_act_title_4?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=A2F4RUIHAU9RI1 Currently have an e5 2620 xeon

Hi, planning to get a new esxi box for my home lab. Currently I have an Xeon server and planning to get an i5 to play around with HA etc. Just wondering how the VMs deal with the change of CPU? Reason I ask is the VM is aware of the CPU it's running on so what happens when it starts...

Okay no idea what is happening here... I connected with my old VPN (server 2008r2 insecure VPN) and then connected back with the new one... it suddenly picked up the domain and is now all working. This open VPN is flaky as best :(

right I got no idea what is happening here.... So today I am here in the office with the VPN connected. However now it's telling me it an "unknown network" and I cannot access any of my LAN resources. It connects up fine just doesn't pass any traffic through!? What could have happened...no...

Just a quick one... Can I bump up the DH group to 2048 and just export the config again? or should it just work? Thanks :)

Thanks yea I got it working now properly :) I think I hadn't setup the right rules to allow traffic from Open VPN to the WAN etc etc. Also I checked that box and it's working a treat now. Thanks!

Right update to this! I HAVE GOT IT WORKING! however... The VPN is not used for any internet communication's and just for access to the LAN? I'd quite like for all my traffic to go through the VPN and then to where ever it needs to go. Any ideas on this?

Thanks for the feedback boys. in the end I forced a reboot of the server and once it was back up I checked for updates again. It had installed the 1st 3 but failed the rest. So I kicked them off again and it's reporting that all is well. Thanks:)

Hey all, for some reason my Domain controller (server 2008r2) is struggling with an update today! For about 2 hours now it's been hanging on installing update 4 of 10 while my other servers (same OS running exchange, file server and backup server) all installed their updates fine! Any...

Further to this... I downloaded the latest ESXI version from the vmware site...turns out I am about 5 updates behind!?? what is the best procedure to update?

Thanks for that but to be honest I can only see data from 2009 and before. Plus they were testing with only DDR2 ram and not DDR3. And looking at those stats right there I'd say I'm okay at the moment.

There you go mate - thanks for the help btw.

Laptop running windows 7 64bit

hmm I tried that and my DHCP scope currently covers 0.2 - 0.99 I added a new scope with the pfsense box and it does give it what ever address I have given it but still no gateway and I cannot even ping any part of the LAN. :(

oh and i'm on 2.0.3 pfsense

hey thanks for that - I installed the fix and it's just like yours now. However my machine is still not picking up the default gateway? worth mentioning that my pfsense box doesn't do DHCP for the LAN my server does.

e.g. the tunnel network needs to be configured for me - I selected tap further up but it's still asking for a tunnel network.

Just interested as to why people recommend ECC ram on here? I know it has error correction but realistically how often is this a problem? Can someone provide some solid facts / figures?

hmm just noticed that the new vpn adapter doesn't have a default gateway..could be the reason why?! my server (2008r2) currently performs the dhcp and dns for the network at home. Does this affect how my clients can VPN in?

Hey all. I followed the instructions in this thread as best I could (seems some settings are missing / not there) and I have got it all connected. BUT I cannot browse / access my local LAN at all? so I connect to the VPN. it is successful but I cannot access the Local LAN at my house where I...
