Hi All this isn't a cisco specific question, but as I couldn't find a generic networking forum I figured this would be a good place to start. I'm currently troubleshooting an application level problem where the vendor says that there is a transparent proxy (vendor has no access to the proxy or...

Thanks for the reply. It was the system variable that I changed, and I'm not using runas or running cmd as another user. However, now after a restart it's working as expected. Im guessing that restarting explorer was the key here, but I have no idea why. Maybe I'll do some more testing...

Hi all I've just run into some strange behaviour on my Windows 7 machine which I have no explanation for and I'm hoping somebody can shed some light on it. To give you some background - I use the keyboard more than the mouse, and to launch more applications I do Windows + R and type the...

Hi All We have some PC's here which are working just fine for one user and they can access DFS shares no problem. However, when any other user logs onto those PC's, they are unable to access any DFS shares. The users can access the DFS root and can see the shares underneath, but when they...

I've got to be honest, I never heard of it either ... but I'm not expert :o) It was just when I noticed it in the output that imbaatthis posted that I thought I'd try it out. Seems to be a valid command on the IOS version on our switch so I'll go with that Having just google "switchport trunk...

Actually, the command "switchport trunk allowed vlan except 89" would also do the trick, right ? Any advantage to one over the other ? Irish Poetry - Karen O'Connor Irish Poetry and Short Stories - Doghouse Books Garten und Landschaftsbau

aah sorry, didn't look at the detailed config - now I see what you were getting at. That would definitely work, thanks for the reply Out of curiosity, anybody have any usage scenario for the pruning option ? Irish Poetry - Karen O'Connor Irish Poetry and Short Stories - Doghouse Books Garten...

Thanks for the reply, but we'd rather not do this if possible as it's one more thing to remember to do next time we add a VLAN when we DO want to carry that traffic over the trunk. This setup is a "one-off" so any more VLAN's that get added in the future would have their uplink over the...

Hi All We have a two-port etherchannel linking a 2960 to a 3750. The etherchannel carries uplink traffic for all vlank's on the 2960. Now we would like to create a new VLAN (89) on the 2960, but we don't want to use the etherchannel to uplink the traffic to the 3750. Instead, we will have a...

Sorry for the late reply everybody Unfortunately the problems are quiet infrequent which of course makes it more difficult to diagnose. We ran memtest86+ on the machines and it seems that the physical RAM is fine. The problem normally occurs when the users are shutting down, but not always...

I'm using Win 7 but same thing applies - I found a Power Toy that will do this for you. Now I can just click Start > Run > elevate cmd and it'll eleavate it for me I can't seem to find it now but the below link might be it ... not 100% sure though...

Hi All I've got 4 machines which have had BSOD's recently (numbers vary between machines). I've downloaded the MS debug tools and ran some debugging on the minidump files. The result seems to point to ntkrpamp.exe, and googling that does bring up alot of BSOD related topics. Can anybody...

OK ... just read the documentation once more & I think I understand now !! I presumed the device on the monitor port should still be able to send traffic (ie Ping) but now I realise it's purely for receiving traffic but not for sending. I'll try again tomorrow & post back thanks again Irish...

Thanks for the replies guys, but the the port doesn't come up when I attach a device - it stays down. It's not "admin down" either (all though I did try the no shutdown command to no avail) the documentation just says that this is by design but no explanation why. I don't see how you could use...

oops sorry ... yea, the actual config does say session 1 ... just a typo on the forum ! Irish Poetry - Karen O'Connor Irish Poetry and Short Stories - Doghouse Books Garten und Landschaftsbau
