    packet sniffing / network monitoring

    I ended up using both Cacti and ntop. Since all of our web traffic passes through 1 server, I was able to just mirror that port on our core L3 switch/router and ntop passively sniffs the traffic as it goes through. It isn't 100% live, I'd say there is maybe a 10 second delay, but thats...

    licensing question

    So the CALs are only valid for a connection between 1 single client and 1 single server? If I have 2 workstations and 5 Windows 2003 Standard Servers I have to purchase 10 CALs for each workstation to be able to access each of the servers?

    licensing question

    Can you elaborate on that? Sorry, I don't really understand many of their licensing terms--- and I've read many, many of their pages on it. What do you mean by 'Windows' CAL? From all of their documentation all I see are 'device' and 'user' CALs. And they make it a point to mention that you...

    licensing question

    Greetings Let's say that I have two Windows 2003 Standard domain controllers. 1 is doing all of the heavy duty stuff like network shares/active directory, etc. The other one is only devoted to being an internet content filtration system for all clients on our network. Would this mean that I...

    packet sniffing / network monitoring

    yeah thanks for the info i had set up zenoss and found it was a bit much for what i was looking to do, so i set up cacti and its nice and i definitely use it still, but i needed the stats to be closer to realtime than 2-5 minute polling so i set up ntop on the same linux box that cacti is on...

    packet sniffing / network monitoring

    Greetings, I have been watching traffic on our network with Wireshark, and its very detailed, but, I am wanting to do something rather simple and straightforward and I am not sure that wireshark is the best solution for what im trying to do. I want to be able to easily see, at a whims notice...

    Dos command for file size of a folder and all of it’s contents.

    hmmm. i dont think there is a command that does just that, but you might be able to automate it by the use of a few commands running in conjunction with one another. im not sure if this is going to do exactly what you want so you might want to read this whole post before doing it. download...

    launching a Perl app from DOS

    hmm. well it all depends. what exactly does your perl program do? does it check to see if the file exists-- and then, if the file doesnt exist it just exits without doing anything, but if it does exist it launches the java program? if the perl program only checks to see if the file exists then...

    Making a bootable CD from an ISO

    two free small burning programs worth looking into: imgburn and infrarecorder they will burn isos. and i know for sure that imgburn will make isos from cd media or even folders on a drive

    bizarre DHCP scripting question

    no sorry i have 1 DHCP server, and it has multiple scopes we want to be able to add a reservation to 1 of the scopes, and then clone all of the reservations to other scopes. but the problem is that the other scopes are all (of course) numbered differently, so, we want to copy over the...

    really strange print file redirect

    does she have the ability to print to PDF from her computer? under her printers control panel does she physically have a 'print to PDF' printer 'device' installed? if so then shes probably doing this by mistake occasionally. either way, I would check her drivers. some HP drivers have multiple...

    partition problems.

    yeah there are several. the most well known back in the day was 'Partition Magic', it is a commercial software the costs. there are Open Source alternatives that are freely available (one is called QTParted- the software allows you to resize partitions on a physical drive while keeping the data...

    Multihomed Server authenticating over wrong interface

    just my two cents in passing: ive heard about a bug before where even though the adapter has 'priority' in the binding list it doesnt 'take'. you might try, just as a test, switching the priority, applying the changes, and then switching it back. also, since you are only using the...

    bizarre DHCP scripting question

    thanks ill have to read up more on that. i found this floating around the other day: http://blogs.technet.com/teamdhcp/archive/2006/09/19/457383.aspx but to be honest im pretty wary about running a script that large on a production server :|

    Cannot run exe files

    NAV is Norton AntiVirus. It is my personal opinion that Symantec and Mcafee products do far more harm than good on server operating systems. (and on clients for that matter). try renaming a random (unnecessary) exe to .scr or .pif, try running it and seeing if you get the same error. if you...

    active directory web based authentication?

    i am not sure that would accomplish entirely what i am trying to do, but i could be wrong (i am not very familiar with the capabilities of the built in VPN stuff in windows server). what i am ultimately trying to accomplish is this: if someone plugs in their laptop to a port, and we have not...

    active directory web based authentication?

    Greetings, another question I have for you i am looking for some sort of (preferably open source, but even if not OSS, i need it to be free) software solution that will help me with this scenario: i have a windows server domain based network. i have many workstations that are not capable of...

    bizarre DHCP scripting question

    Greetings, I want to know if this is possible: I have a Windows 2003 Server, I have multiple DHCP scopes for various subnets and vlans I have. But I want to be able to copy all of the DHCP MAC address reservations from one scope to another scope on the fly. In other words, when I add a DHCP...

    DNS issue

    im starting to realize what happened. we just created these vlans about a week ago, before this the entire network was flat. we have alot of students with laptops, many of which do not run an OS that is capable of joining the domain. so here is somewhat of the conclusion ive come to so far --...

    DNS issue

    sooooooo. ive got a 2003 server doing DNS and DHCP. its in one vlan. i have clients in a different vlan. the clients can ping the 2003 server just fine by IP, BUT, only some of them can ping it by name. when i go into the DNS forward lookup zone, i see very few host A records populated there...
