    How to set 'Delete history entries older than' config setting in SNMPc Workgroup Edition 7.1.1

    I'm trying to install SNMPc Workgroup Edition version 7.1.1, and need to preset the 'Delete History Entries Older Than X Days' but I can only seem to do it manually, through the GUI. Does anyone know how to script it? I'm thinking there might be a setting I could add to the snmpc.ini file? -Frink

    Launch mib table from SNMPc icon

    I'm bit of a newbie with SNMPc, but how can I get a mib table displayed when I double-click an icon in SNMPc Management Console? For example, all the interfaces on a router. Presumably I have to add a command in the third column of the autoico.txt file for the router, but what is the command?

    Free ESXi 5 Backup Solution

    Cheers, Veeam does work but it uses unsupported API's so is not guaranteed in the future. VMware Data Recovery needs vCentre, which I don't have. Scripting may well be the only answer. Has anyone tried this?

    Rename a cloned W2K3 Server

    I have made a clone of a server and wish to rename it (and change its IP Address) so I can have both on my network. The machine is an AD box with it's own domain. Any idea how best to go about the renaming? There is no DNS server in use as every machine has a manually assigned fixed IP Address...

It'd be handy to have a complete language reference, with examples, to complement the Get-Help stuff. Thanks again, -...

    Language Recognition

    Hallo, What format text document? If it was from a word processor then there may be meta data indicating the language (or it may just indicate the language of the word processor!) Alternatively, build up a database of words, ideally common words unique to a language and write some code to check...
