    SBS 2008 Console; watch out

    The console log seems to be one file, created each day the console is open (or one big one when it is closed if open for a lot of days?) It is located in C:\inetpub\logs\logfiles where there are several more folders in logfiles, some of which are reasonable size, but others are whoppers. In...

    SBS 2008 Console; watch out

    I like the SBS console, I really do, but mine does not run right! Try to add a group; crashes, try to run reports ; crashes (used to work though!). Anyway, I thought I would warn folks to watch out for some installs like to create huge log files when the Console is running. I left it on over a...

    vlan separation?

    Another Vlan question: If I set a group of ports in a 3com 3300 switch to be a vlan, will those ports be separated from the other vlan traffic the same as if it was a separate switch? gr

    VLAN on 3300 switches

    I have a 24 port 3300 connected to a 12 port 3300 via the back cable. The 24 port was first and the 12 port was added. The vlans defined on the 24 port unit show as 802.1Q ports, but I never defined (I think!) Vlan ports on the second unit..... but they show up in the web interface as being vlan...

    Reformat document into canned report?

    What I posted was not a table, just plain text in what is normally in columns (got moved around in copying to this venue). Are we talking two different things? I think table as in MS Word. Do you mean something else? gr

    Reformat document into canned report?

    I shall try to answer the various questions; 1) No tables, plain text, ACSII style text only. 2) No tabs (I think) 3) Pre-determined chunks of text selected and reformated into a Word or Excel, or even another plain text document.This would be a permanent set of predetermined chunks for each...

    Reformat document into canned report?

    We have a variety of Office installations from 97-2003. Working in the oldest would be great, but I can get the newest (2007) to run this in if needed. A Word document as output would be nice. Excel would work too. I plan on having a small graphic logo at the top of the report, but the rest is...

    Reformat document into canned report?

    That's both the problem and the simplicity of it all. The text document is produced by an ancient HP Instrument basic analysis system. A pretty report needs to be generated from this plain text document. The software which would convert this should run on WinXP. I am looking to have it pretty...

    Reformat document into canned report?

    Reformat document into canned report? I need to have a program that I can input a text document that is always in exactly the same format (spacing, columns, etc) and output selected bits of this in a good looking report. Ideally, have unlimited ability to place text anyplace I want in a...

    Server suggestions?

    Thanks guys! Would one raid 5 array work with OS and exchange on separate partitions, or does the array not work enough like separate drives? gr

    Server suggestions?

    I am looking to install SBS2003 with 22 users (10 of which are active users of Exchange and applications). Looks like a Proliant DL180 G5, Quad core 2GHZ, 8gb mem, second 750W powers supply would be a good server. 1) Is this enough horsepower? 2) Would 2 500GB non Hot swap SATA drives be enough...

    Fix found for Google Maps Tiling problem!

    Fix found for Google Maps Tiling problem! Problem: Google maps will not always show a complete map or satellite image. Random tiles will remain grey and will have a message (incorrect) that you need to zoom out because the level of detail is not available. ("no data for this level") I chased...

    3COM 3300 Super Stacker Switches

    Yes, this worked for me in the past. I don't remember exactly, but I may have had to use a variation of the pw and did try both letter O and Zero. You may or may not need to put a space in like this: AT the same point try RIP 000 or RIP 0000, I'm sorry I haven't worked on these for sometime.
