Hello all: To make this brief, my colleage and myself are possibly looking to replace our current ISA/TMG firewalls and have them replaced with something different given the recent news about Microsoft discontinuing the Forefront products. So now that the planning wheels are in motion, I am...

Well, I did find a couple products that appear that they might work... It's just hard to be sure. I think either of them might work - only reason I think that is because the image of the first one listed below seems to have the same types of little screws on the bottom that my Envirosense unit...

Sorry, just now realizing you said you don't know how to write a batch file... OK - please copy my command from above and paste it into notepad and finally save it as shutdown.bat. You can then tell your UPS software to run that bat file. Make sure you actually replace \\computername with the...

I am assuming the computers/servers attached to the UPS are Windows machines. If so, create a .bat file using something similar to the following... shutdown –m \\computername –f –c “Computer is shutting down in 120 seconds. Please save any work in progress” –t 120 Brad L. Network Engineer...

Hello All, We have a couple Tripplite UPS's with the Envirosense modules installed. We are currently using the built-in temp and humidity sensors, but are now interested in testing for water (on the floor, for example). The Envirosense has what they call "dry contacts" built into the device...

OK, got it resolved. For some reason or another, the Group Policy became corrupt. We just had to reapply the policies and it started working. Thanks, Brad L. Network Engineer Pcubed "Some things Man was never meant to know. For everything else, there's Google.

Hello All: Not sure if this is the correct Forum in TT to post this issue to, but it seemed like the most relevant. So we have had DirectAccess working in production for over a year now without major issues. This morning, I get in the office with several tickets regarding internal access from...

Hello All: I've just failed the 70-662 exam that I thought I was completely prepared for and just wanted to post some feedback about it here for anyone else prepping to take it and also get some suggestions if possible. Firstly, I used a combination of CBT Nuggets and uCertify software to...

I didn't think about IPP... This might work. Thanks! Brad L. Network Engineer Pcubed "Some things Man was never meant to know. For everything else, there's Google.

Hello all, I am looking at purchasing a NAS device that has the capability for network printer sharing. I have found several that support USB printer sharing, but that will not work as I would have to keep the device within USB cable range of the printer and physical security restraints won't...

Hello all, I am looking to create a script that can install a file-based printer (Such as Sybase Data Window or GhostScript PDF) and install the .inf file for it. I have found several scripts that can install shared printers and IP-based printers, but nothing for file-based printers. We are...

For anyone interested, we have finally figured out the problem and a resolution. The issue related to Adobe Type 1 fonts. We wrote a blog article here specifying the issue and resolution. http://ptihosting.com/blog/design-and-marketing/ie9-wont-render-some-pages-adobe-postscript-fonts-to-blame/...

Sorry to bump, but this is becoming a really serious and really annoying issue. Thanks, Brad L. Systems Engineer Prestige Technologies www.prestigetech.com www.ptihosting.com/blog "Some things Man was never meant to know. For everything else, there's Google.

Hello all, I have a co-worker with a very strange problem that I've never seen or heard of, and Google has not been informative. He cannot even use IE9 on his own machine because webpages refuse to display properly or at all (and he is a web developer, so it sucks really badly for him). After...

Well, I feel stupid. CSF+LFD has an "SMTP_BLOCK" option that I had set to 1 (disable SMTP). This was strange because I was able to send mail through port 25 using telnet no problem. I won't overlook that option again. Thanks as always for your help! Brad L. Systems Engineer Prestige...
