Hello. I wrote the following and dumped it on a page somewhere. Saw your question and thought it might help you out. I don't know what you want to online backup TO, but the rsync idea would probably work for you as well (although in the opposite direction than I describe below). The 30GB would...

For the guy with the big gun - dude, just shoot your computer :D no, seriously; check the application logs on your server (right-click on my computer -> manage -> application logs and alerts) to get a better clue about what is going on. To everyone else, thx for the suggestions - will do next...

Hello. As my handle suggests, I am more at home in a BASH shell than in Win 2k3 Server, but I have gotten along quite fine up to now... Scenario: small business with single 2003 SBS server running both AD and Exchange. 20 users on the system full time, with Windows XP, OS X Tiger and Linux...

@ Opieo One great and succint (i.e.: you already know what a computer is..) guide I found to basic Linux (and a lot applies to Unix as well) is http://www.linuxtraining.co.uk/download/new_linux_course_modules.pdf Happy Hunting.

So? We're on tenterhooks here, Isaac. We are missing the climax of that 4GB .pst story. Will the hero prevail? :)

Thanks - that solved it!

Point taken

I must've suffered a major neural shutdown today when a user showed me that when clicking on a hyperlink in an outlook e-mail, a message box came up saying no program was associated with this and would she please select a program. So, without thinking twice, I selected c:\windows\explorer.exe...

How about scanpst.exe? Should find out what's wrong with it and fix the thing. Man, what do you do with a 4GB PST file... I've heard there's no worse way of archiving e-mails but HOW ELSE? Current mailbox on exchange server? (ha ha ha ha ha - yeah RIGHT - 4 hour send/receive sync time...)

Yeah. I concur. When I made an inventory database in access, that stored photos of all the object it was inventorying, I found it very unwise to have OLE objects or image files stuck in a field of the database. When you pass the 50 or 100-record mark, you're gonna regret it. Rather, if you feel...

I would reccommend a relatively ancient piece of machinery with two network cards between the router and your internal network, with IPCop installed on it (how-to at http://www.howtoforge.com/perfect_linux_firewall_ipcop). This by the way will INCREASE your network security right off the bat...

What I would do, as a first action, is boot up with a Linux LiveCD, like Ubuntu or knoppix. (try http://releases.ubuntu.com/hardy/) There is actually a good chance that the system will detect your drives and partitions and be able to mount them as-is (probably read-only). You can then get the...

My answer offhand would be UNIX. Or, more properly POSIX-compliant systems, like Unix Linux CentOS z/OS etc., in the server room. Why: A. Scalability (Exchange server? Scalable? Failover? Fast? Really?) B. Diversified code base and (mostly) open source = more streamlined code and 100x the...

IMHO, the future of computer input lies in optimization of what's already there: The keyboard exists and is ubiquitous - talk about market share. This isn't like windows vs. Linux - everything has a keyboard and they are all basically the same (let's leave out the subject of keymaps, OK?)...

For Linux people, how about a text edited with vim, encrypted with GnuPG? I could write something on the matter, but it is most eloquently expressed here: http://www.cipherdyne.org/blog/2008/02/interfacing-vim-with-gnupg-encrypted-files.html And I admit that, encrypted on my phone, I have a...
