    Switch Ports - delivering dhcp

    Thanks rclarke250. Yes, they are swapping at the wall plate, so it may be the switch. I don't know how common that is - for switch ports to go bad.

    Switch Ports - delivering dhcp

    We have a public PC lab in our library. Each PC is loaded with security - e.g. DeepFreeze and Envisionware (for reserving a PC). Each PC is wired to a Netgear switch., then to a router and out to the central site and on to the Internet. Each workstation looks for a particular port on the...

    URL will not redirect despite...

    Solved... Turns out to have been a firewall problem... ASA was not allowing port 80 traffic. Duh! Thanks to anyone who considered this query!

    URL will not redirect despite...

    Not sure where to start. We run a local simpledns site, with forwarding to OpenDNS Enterprise. We have a local address http://oursite.com which has a redirect to a vendor's site embedded in IIS 6.0 (Win2003 server). Even though I can do an nslookup to the URL which resolves to our local IP...

    Odd Network Behavior

    Forgive me for this subject - I'm not sure how else to phrase it. I searched the forums, but even that was difficult. I'm not even sure which thread to put this into. Anyway, we are a central site and we have a branch office that is connected by fiber on a VLAN. The router is here, and they...

    Win-7 power settings-sleep mode gone awry

    I thought I had my Windows-7 power settings correct, and they seem to be, except when the screen goes into its timeout (the computer HD is NOT going to sleep. After the screen goes dark, and I hit a key on the keyboard to wake it up, the screen & what i was last doing appears again. And even...

    Trying to load Win7 on a new drive

    Hello all. I hope this is the right forum. I have a new hard drive which I have formatted. I want to install Windows-7 from a legal CD (we have a multiple install license). I cannot install it while the HD is in a USB drive enclosure. Would I have to remove my current drive, put the new...

    Access Lists to open a port on multiple IP's

    Access Lists -- Is it possible to use a "range" of some sort to open a particular port on a range of IP addresses? For example we use a product that requires access to port 6129 and I wonder if I have to provide this for EVERY IP address or can I use a range? Sorry if this sound a bit daft...

    SCSI SCA80 converter (to USB??)

    I was hoping for a different answer, but all my research tells me you are correct... Thanks for the help!

    SCSI SCA80 converter (to USB??)

    I have an IBM Ultrastar DDYS-T36950 SCSI hard drive with data on it that I want to extract. Does anyone know if there is some sort of (semi) inexpensive converter that I can use to get this data off the drive? I've found the 68 pin SCSI converters, but nothing for the SCA80 connector. Even...

    Wi-Fi Antennas and equipment

    I searched the threads and found some items "close" to this, but felt I needed to start a new thread. I work in a park which has a building where our DSL line comes in and we have hooked a LinkSys WRT54G wireless router. We have an area in front of the building where park volunteers park their...

    IE Status Bar

    Good point! I don't "do" JavaScript. Here it is. Anyone have an idea? ----------------------- function hidestatus(){ window.status='' return true } if (document.layers) document.captureEvents(Event.MOUSEOVER | Event.MOUSEOUT) document.onmouseover=hidestatus document.onmouseout=hidestatus...

    IE Status Bar

    We are attempting to allow people to connect to a passworded, 3rd party database web site. The link inside the html code includes an authorization number and the password. In order to protect that data, we have encrypted the page so that the source code cannot be viewed. However, in IE (but...

    Redirect or ??

    After the recent hurricane, we were wondering if it is possible for our servers to have a backup on another server, NOT in a hurricane area. I believe this is called a Mirror. But, how would DNS know that our system was down and that it needed to redirect the user to our mirror site? I may be...

    PIX and slowdowns?

    I am unsure where to post this question, but since I suspect the problem is with the PIX 515-E, I will post it here. Apologies in advance if I need to go somewhere else. We have a PIX 515-E. The servers are connected to a switch with a legal address. The servers have legal addresses. The...

    PIX 515 Ethernet Ports and Switches

    Thanks for the info... So the switch that has the servers all attached should not be connected to any other switch. Does the switch itself need to have a legal address?

    PIX 515 Ethernet Ports and Switches

    I'm pretty much a newbie and I'm pretty much confused as to what is the best way to hook up a PIX 515 to the network. It has 3 ethernet ports - one to the internet router (crossed), one for the inside which goes to one of 5 switches, and one for the "remote", which are our web servers, all with...

    XP Pro hangs after first or second process begun

    No new hardware. The multi users are classified as power users. I doubt if they know how to get to anything, however. Thanks...

    XP Pro hangs after first or second process begun

    Sorry about the subject. This is one that I cannot quite figure. I've search the FAQ's and could not find anything that matched. I am helping to "fix" a Dell running XP Pro. The PC is attached to a secure network, although it can access any internet sites. It has multi users and out of the...
