    Does Bluetooth work reliably?

    I have been trying to get a Belkin bluetooth AP with print server talking with a laptop with Belkin bluetooth PC card. Two problems keep coming up: First, the two will be communicating and suddenly the AP stops responding for no reason, and it has to be power cycled to get it back. The other...

    E-mail stamps?

    Such a system would have to be operated by the ISPs, and in practical terms I don't know whether it could work. The advantage I see over "whitelists" is that if YOU are willing to pay to send ME an email then I'll start with the assumption that it's worth looking at. Spammers depend...

    E-mail stamps?

    I would be MORE than happy to pay a couple of cents per email I sent if everyone else did too--the stuff I want I would get, and the spammers would be out of business in about an hour. Free is good, but my time has value, and I pay an ISP anyway; if my bill was a buck or two a month higher and...

    Interview Questions

    The question about high school was probably a form of age discrimination--the HR moron who asked it was looking for an answer from the perspective of a 22 year old, not a 50 year old.

    XP task scheduler

    Yes to all three. Not really dumb questions, since I've overlooked things that obvious on occasion, but in this case all those items are covered.

    XP task scheduler

    I'm trying to use task scheduler to automate file transfer (using a batch file which calls xcopy) at night. The source is a mapped network drive and the destination a local hard disk. The batch file works normally when called from a command line or run from Explorer, but the scheduled task...

    Telnet access to PIX

    Allowing a person whose only access is to the outside interface of the PIX (i.e. potentially the entire Internet!) to telnet into the firewall seems unwise. IP spoofing is too easy, and passwords often can be lost, stolen, or guessed. I recognize the convenience, but you shouldn't need to...

    HP-UX unable to get Browser up.

    Are you connecting through any sort of firewall?

    PIX 515.. tips/tricks/suggestions??

    I went through the same thing recently. The OS of the machine(s) connected to it really doesn't matter--you control the firewall using terminal emulation software (in the case of Win 2K the easy choice is of course Hyperterminal) through the serial port. A dumb ASCII terminal would work as...

    one outside address to 2 inside

    Thanks--I'll look at static more closely. I'm doing a 1-to-1 static now, but couldn't quite figure out the 2-to-1. We'd love to have 2 ip addresses, but have been told that we can't.

    one outside address to 2 inside

    We have one Internet address and need to have 2 servers talk on it. We would like to have the address translated depending on the port specified by the visitor (a machine on the internet). Is this even possible, and if so how? Thanks! Peter

    Access-list's

    CMASPE, Your starting config is SO open that I (pretty much a PIX novice) have to wonder whether it was intentional--if there was ill will perhaps just to let any malicious person who found it create havoc. It's not hard to write a conduit or acl that limits the most dangerous stuff. If I were...

    PIX 515R --can't ping through

    THANKS! I found my problem. Purely pilot error. This firewall was shipped with software release 4.4(7), which, according to what I can find, does not support ACLs. Do you recommend that I download and install version 5.whatever before I put the firewall into service in the "real...

    PIX 515R --can't ping through

    Yes--"conduit permit icmp any any"

    PIX 515R --can't ping through

    I'm completely new to firewall setup. I have a PIX 515R configured, as far as I can see, exactly as described in the manual. Pings will go from external hosts to the 515 interfaces and from the 515 to external hosts, but not THROUGH the firewall in either direction. What should I look at...

    Help with "Like" operator-- VB 6 with Access database

    I'm trying to use the "Like" operator. "Like" works as expected in an Access query, but when I try to use it in VB code it returns only an exact match. For example, Like 'John Doe' would return records with John Doe, but Like 'John D' returns nothing, as do...

    Add_in - Access 2000

    I have created a Com Add-in in Visual Basic 6 for use in Access 2000. The Add-in is intended to insert error traps in code. I have been using one in Access 97 for some years and it is a great little tool. My problem is that I can't seem to be able to get the Add in Manager in Access 2000 to...
