    Windows 2000 Server hangs after WIndows Update

    We have a Windows 2000 Server (SP4) that likes to hang after performing its automatic Windows Update. It hangs at the "Windows is shutting down" message after closing out the login box, and the scrolling bar merrily scrolls but the system continues to hang indefinitely. The problem does not...

    MAC Address??

    I'm a little confused by the wording, but assuming you're actually looking for a machine sharing a subnet with the Firebox, this will help: Go into your Firebox Manager and click the "Status Report" tab at the top. Near the bottom of the report you will find an ARP table associating known IPs...

    Watchguard Opinions

    Couldn't agree more with AntiEarnie.... Don't buy Watchguard. I'm responsible for a VPN with one Firebox III 1000 at our head office and 20 SOHO6 units in the field. -no SNMP on SOHO6 = major pain in the butt for auditing branches. (To be fair, I met in person to one of their lead software...

    Stuck at the same IP!

    SuzanneBBI, If you're receiving a 169.254.x.x address when you are connecting to the Internet through a router, your cable internet may be fine. Your router would then be responsible for granting your PC an address, not Comcast. If your PC has an IP address in the 169.254.x.x range, it is...

    Stuck at the same IP!

    Though it does seem a violation of spec to have your machines maintain a DHCP address past expiry, there's nothing weird about being assigned the same address every time you renew. Perhaps Comcast's backend systems provision IPs based on the pair of MACs from the NIC and modem... duplicate MACs...

    Need to add login, passwd to HardHat

    I'm not too familiar with HardHat, so I'll ask some obvious questions... does the passwd command work? If not, does HardHat give you the crypt command? If so, you could crypt your desired password and stick that output into your /etc/passwd or /etc/shadow (again, I'm totally unfamiliar with...

    Erm configure a V Lan

    VLAN1 (by default) is a "management" VLAN. You need to define IP addresses (in the same subnet as your router interface) for the VLAN1 interface on your switches (int vlan 1 / ip address x.x.x.x x.x.x.x). (You may need to use the command "switchport access vlan 1" on the...

There's no problem having three router interfaces connected to each other on the...

    Port Security

    Perhaps you could used a VLAN membership policy server to assign all "legit" machine MAC addresses to a functional VLAN? That would permit a centralized management scheme, though you will still need those darned MAC addys :)

    Home folder not mapping to a WIN98 client.

    I don't think Windows98 recognizes nested shares like that. You will need to share the folder so the share can be named \\server\share or whatnot.

    I installed postfix, why can i receive email?

    1. Did you CONFIGURE your mail server? 2. Is your MX record pointing to the mail server?

    Are you running MySQL?

    file transfer and terminal server

    The Remote Desktop Connection client has the configuration option to map local drives in the TS session, but I've had better luck getting this to work with older TS clients.

    Strange Log Entries, ARIN APNIC & RIPE

    Looks like something is trawling for a mail script to exploit.

    Cannot ping or view web sites with 192. ip addresses

    It sounds as though other traffic works fine for Joefederico... his router and PIX must be communicating if this is true, so they must be on the same segment, correct? His routing table/configuration confirms that 192.168.1.x is only on the one interface, anyway... Joefederico, just to confirm...

    User cannot process login scripts during Login process.

    Have you checked the System Log under Event Viewer? It may give you some helpful hints as to what's going on.

    Oops, shouldn't have submitted yet... Joefederico, could you post a sh ip route?
