    Cisco noob, DHCP+vlan not getting along

    I... didn't know that. Had to go try this out. So, this is a function of the router interface receiving an address via DHCP and having the ISP pass the default-router to it? Am I seeing that right? Looks like I can do the same with private IP's too. Knew better than to get into this thread...

    Cisco noob, DHCP+vlan not getting along

    Unless I'm missing something, there's no route to the outside network from inside. Something like: ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 fa 0/1 should be added. The router can get to DNS as it already has an IP in the outside interface.

    One or more network protocols are missing

    Ran into this after trying to install the Win10 mobo .inf files after putting win10 on one of my machines. Ran across this fix [FIX] Windows Sockets Registry Entries Required For Network Connectivity Are Missing - I ended up having to import the .reg keys (Fix 3 on the site) but don't think...

    Why is connection refused by other device with telnet configured similarly

    IP address set for the correct interfaces? IP routes setup for where they need to be? Any ACLs in the way? Check your running-config for anything that looks strange.

    Millennium Falcon Cockpit 360 Panorama

    Kind of what I was wondering while looking at it. No screens, no informational feedback aside from some lit switches - where do you see the coordinates from the navacomputer?

    GOG is having a sale on games recommended by Jesse Cox.

    No idea who the guy is but finally picked up Deus Ex after... a lot of years.

    Getting the MAC of device on other end of line.

    Forgive my noobiness, here. Couldn't you use something like nmap / zenmap? Tell it to scan the entire subnet (192.168.2.0/24) and let it go. It'll return all the address of whatever will respond to pings. Not great, but a first start. There's Solarwinds which is supposed to be great...

    free audio editor

    You could play with Audacity - it has a noise removal filter but I can't vouch for it. Still, the price is right.

    Excel: cross referencing a user profile repository 'dir' output with AD export

    Not knowing what the exact columns are, you could try using something like MATCH. So, if you want to match an entry from column A in the diroutput sheet to an entry in the AD-Export sheet you could use something like: =match(a1,'AD-Export'!$A$1:$A$1425,0) That should return the number of...

    Excel: search cell for text, if exists return value/text "x"

    Had to Google around for this one. =ISNUMBER(FIND("OU=DALLAS,DC=company",A1)) where A1 is the column with the text. This will return TRUE or FALSE. Found the answer here.

    Favorite cinematic style game trailers?

    The Assasin's Creed trailer was brilliant, I thought. Watched this a lot when it came out. Likewise, Assasin's Creed 2 was great. Love the CGI. Never played the games, but liked the trailers. Jumpgate Octavius trailer - if nothing else then the voice acting. Whatever happened to this...

    MS SyncToy Question

    Sounds right to me. That way, there should be no deletions on the right. Just be sure that if you don't want a file on the left to delete it manually on the right.

    Which web broser do you use?

    FF, mostly for the extensions. I probably ought to take another look at Chrome one of these days. IE also gets used on my machines but not by default.

    Looking for software to sort MP3's by Genre

    I played around with a number of tools that were supposed to auto set various fields but couldn't find one that worked well enough that I didn't have to go back and check them all anyway. This was several years back, though, and it's possible that they are much better now. In the end, I just...

    Get ready to hate Windows 8, $39.99 upgrades from XP or higher

    Backup Solution (for Windows data)

    Personally, I use SyncToy to do exactly that. Backup to USB drive - I use the Echo option but it does have the option of keeping the old files. And it's free. Oh, and direct access to the files.

    The file is not in a recognizable format. OFFICE 2K

    Article here seems to point to Office being unable (or unhappy) to open a file from the Open dialog. There are lots of suggestions to just double-click form Explorer. It also mentions that there might be file corruption or an element that is converting incorrectly and causing a problem...

    Need Program for Editing Movie Info

    I was just playing around with this last night. The two that I settled on were Metadata Browser and Mediascout - both generate files more meant for MediaBrowser (or XBMC). Of the two, Metadata Browser is fairly kludgy but will get the job done. Mediascout was great but I only used it for TV...

    Excel Help Needed

    So, column C is the operation type (A, B), and column D is if there are male or female. That leaves column E for the height. Play around with something like this: =STDEV.S(IF(C3:C104="Operation A",IF(D3:D104="M",E3:E104))) but instead of hitting enter, hit CTRL - SHIFT - ENTER to put...

    What's the best way to insert a watermark in Excel 2010 sheet background?

    Couple different ways that I found after some Googling on this. They are... kludgy. The first method works OK except that editing under the picture takes some work. You have to cursor into it from outside the rectangle. From here: This second method works a lot better but you have to play...

    Best freeware for burning audio cds?

    Second ImgBurn. Here's the instructions for how to go about it. As mentioned ^, not exactly straightforward, but not too difficult and ImgBurn is well worth having around. If you don't want that, WMP will do the same thing.

    What about using i3 laptop as htpc?

    I'm currently running an i5 Asus laptop (Intel graphics) as my HTPC and it works just like you'd expect it to. I've no real problem with image quality (just have a 720p screen and I'm not really a videophile) and the sound is acceptable even being stereo. The one area this really falls down...

    Firefox 8.0.1: Disable Tab Groups?
