    Dead End Career

    Maybe USAT is in a better bargaining position than he thinks if he's the only one running the IT show there. With all those sites, the overtime, and the 24/7 paging, he's probably being taken advantage of, but it also sounds like they definitely need him. If he were to suddenly announce that he...

    Wait a minute, let me understand this. The *coffee* boy tweaked RWIN, MTU, TTL, etc., on your boss's machine?? Wonder if he can help me pass Net+. :-) John "Remember you are unique, just like everyone else"

    Question about Repeaters

    Auto Disk wipe

    I agree with Ed. The customer, not you, should be assuming the responsiblity for erasing any sensitive data. Regardless of the erasure method used, I feel it's a burden for your company in both the time it takes to do and in the potential liability if anything were to somehow "leak&quot...

    DVD Rom makes a ticking sound

    Are you getting errors or having problems accessing the drive, or is it just making the ticking noise? It might only be a noisy drive mech for now, but better to play it safe and not put any more DVD's or CD's in that drive. Fixing it is probably not worth the effort. I would just return the...
