    Ring group members set to voicemail

    We've an old Hipath 3800, support dropped a while ago so we've been making basic changes ourselves. It's due for replacement, but it probably won't happen until next year. We have many hunt groups configured, and for reception cover we started forwarding the reception phone to one of the spare...

    Hoe to control PC with Harmony Logitech

    Something like this, but you'll need to check product specs on the manufacturer's site. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Leadtek-WinFast-TV2000-XP-Expert-PCI-TV-CARD-/170526985075?pt=UK_Computing_Computer_Components_Graphics_Video_TV_Cards_TW "We can categorically state that we have not released...

    Hoe to control PC with Harmony Logitech

    Hi there, I imagine they are all PCI, you'd need the connection to the motherboard. I suspect that they have a battery pack in-built in, can PCI devices be powered in the same way network cards can?

    Hoe to control PC with Harmony Logitech

    Yes, it's pretty easy to do; I did it with my home PC and Harmony. Easy that is, provided you have the kit for the job. What you'll need is a TV/Tuner/Video card that has the ability to turn on the PC. They are cheap, I picked one up from ebay for £15. You don't need to worry about features...

    Logging on to Workstation as a Local Admin instead of Domain Admin

    An infected computer with domain admin rights can infect most of the network very quickly; a local administrator account will only compromise the machine. Our network is locked down quite tightly, but I still practice the same methodology. A workstation should never really need to be logged in...

    Antec - Great Cases, Great Customer Support

    Or you could turn your desk into a PC case! Some cupboards make wonderful cases. "We can categorically state that we have not released man-eating badgers into the area" - Major Mike Shearer

    unchangable low resolution

    I would recommend downloading the latest drivers and installing them; regardless of whether Windows reports functioning drivers. "We can categorically state that we have not released man-eating badgers into the area" - Major Mike Shearer

    Suspect I am UnKnowingly Hooked to an Ethernet

    The data doesn't have to go over the physical layer to show up in the statistics. Any local traffic across localhost/127.0.0.1 and the like will show up. "We can categorically state that we have not released man-eating badgers into the area" - Major Mike Shearer

    Choosing a linux distribution

    CentOS is basically Redhat; it's well tested and solid. Ubuntu is more 'bleeding edge', but due to the size of it's user base (and a large portion of them being novices), you are far more likely to find answers to problems encountered. "We can categorically state that we have not released...

    RHEL and RAID 5??

    If it's a true RAID controller, it should do. "We can categorically state that we have not released man-eating badgers into the area" - Major Mike Shearer

    Blue Ray for data storage?

    I suppose for smaller installations that is true, but LTO it still an attractively priced. We picked our drive up for under £1000, and the tapes were £30 each. I completely missed the part where the OP mentioned it being a home PC! "We can categorically state that we have not released...

    Blue Ray for data storage?

    With a relatively cheap LTO4 drive being able to store up to 1.6TB compressed on a single tape, I can't see optical media ever catching it up in either price or capacity. "We can categorically state that we have not released man-eating badgers into the area" - Major Mike Shearer

    Sony VAIO VGN - Graphics card failure?

    One of our Top Dogs loves his VAIO (if it's good enough for James Bond...), the repair bills have never been pleasant. "We can categorically state that we have not released man-eating badgers into the area" - Major Mike Shearer

    bitlocker

    It may well support hardware RAID, which is transparent, but your on-board RAID will be fake RAID. Is that supported? "We can categorically state that we have not released man-eating badgers into the area" - Major Mike Shearer

    Sony VAIO VGN - Graphics card failure?

    For the price of repairing anything Sony, I'd get a new one. "We can categorically state that we have not released man-eating badgers into the area" - Major Mike Shearer

    Intel Quad-Core E5345 demanding AMD.

    I believe AMD license their 64 tech to Intel, as Intel do to AMD with their 32 tech. Both companies would be screwed if either broke this symbiotic relationship. "We can categorically state that we have not released man-eating badgers into the area" - Major Mike Shearer

    How to check how many DHCP servers in lan segment?

    I'd personally just sniff the network, you can then filter by DHCP requests and responses. Look at ethereal etc for windows or tcpdump in *nix. "We can categorically state that we have not released man-eating badgers into the area" - Major Mike Shearer

    Laptop stolen; Logmein installed; I see it come online occasionally --

    You'd be better off giving the police all the information you have and leaving it at that. You'll only raise suspicion and the machine will get wiped. "We can categorically state that we have not released man-eating badgers into the area" - Major Mike Shearer
