    Blog

    I've been using Nucleus CMS on my IIS 6 server with really wonderful results. Of course you'll need to install PHP for it to work.

    dns question

    Another simple way to do this is to add 2 A records since 'www' is technically a subdomain of the domain.tld: Add One for www.mycomp.com and One for mycomp.com Both obviously pointing to the same ip. Tyras

    same unwanted email

    Yeah I've gotten about 1000 or so in the last couple days. Depending on how you get your email, I just simply added OTC Financial Network to my antispam blocklist. Outlook itself doesn't have any control to filter out certain things. However you can create a rule that will deal with it. It's...

    Remote Desktop

    Have you tried to connect using the IP address or the fqdn of the machine? You may have a dns issue. Tyras

    Task Manager by GPO

    I suppose I'll start by saying that I said Task Manager, when I really meant Task Scheduler. I should be slapped for that....done. What I am trying to accomplish is have simple tasks being set up to run on my pc's. Examples are a defrag every 2 weeks, or disk check every so often. Simple...

    Task Manager by GPO

    Does anyone know the best way or if it is possible to control the task manager on client machines via gpo? One thing that must happen is the tasks have to be run as the user of that machine (as opposed to local admin account) Can't find too much on google about this. A few products here and...

    Problems login in to Outlook.

    also check the size of your pst itself. It is supposedly able to go up to 18 gb i think, but it almost always has issues long before that, and if your getting a lot of spam, that may be the issue. Tyras

    SPAM - Whats the world coming too? Monday morning rant!!!!!

    Wow...I thought I had it bad looking through 5-6000 a week for my 2 legit ones. As a side note, I've had some decent success reducing spam to the end users inbox by filtering anything with a picture attatchment on it. This has filtered most of those wonderful stock tips and the majority of...

    IIS issues

    Wow..you guys are fast. heh. Option 3 is a good way to go. Be sure to change the DNS A Records on the website to reflect teh new IP address you get from your ISP, and of course configure your firewall accordingly. Good luck

    IIS issues

    Can you give us a bit of information about your setup then? Both servers in a DMZ, or in your LAN behind a firewall? Also, is there a reason these sites are separate or could they be combined to a single machine? Are both sites hosted on the same public IP address? What is happening is that...

    IIS issues

    When you say that you have two webservers in house, do you mean that you have two separate machines hosting a website each in your network, or do you mean you have IIS on one machine and it is hosting 2 websites? If it's the fist then you have have a DNS issue, or if it is the second, your...

    Outlook Archival Plan

    Ahh yes sorry for that. We are not using exchange, but just imap accounts to our host provider. As far as the PST's i was thinking of writing a script to automatically cop them to the server mostly for the sake of saving them. Having each user's target folder for saving it in their profile...

    Outlook Archival Plan

    Morning, We currently have about 25 users all using Outlook 2003 as their email client. Over the past few years, everyone has done a great job of saving all of their emial (except spam of course). So now I started here and one of the first things I recognize is horrendously large PST's. (most...

    Troubled with Spam sent to my domain name

    Something else you may be able to do, although it won't help with the spam you are getting, but with the issue of you being blocked, is see if your ISP will add an SPF record on their DNS server that's hosting your zone. It's really simple to do if you have control of your DNS settings for...

    test VPN laptop for Security flaws

    Also keep in mind as to what the users will be able to do with these machines away from work. If they are able to use that laptop in an irresponsible way outside of the work enviornment and allow for open ports, unpached vulnerabilities, or getting malware, any attacker will be able to get...
