Windows NAT can forward ports or route internet addresses to internal hosts, if you have more than one assigned internet address.

I'm suggesting that the two GbE cards share a subnet so there's only one route for packets to take.

I'd suggest, if your routing equipment supports it, putting the PCs' 100mbit cards on different subnets and the GbE cards on the same subnet.

Yes. But if you're doing gigabit xfers, it's not like you'll be spiking for very long. Unless you're like me, and regularly need to send 30GB from one comptuer to another.

That's really great. I - we, were worried about all that.

I strongly suspect that's a result of some bias against comics on the part of somebody who doesn't know any better. Powers, in particular, is something I wouldn't want a nine-year-old picking up. Ever seen Se7en? That's about the level of violence, sexuality and gore we're talking about. A...

I have a USB clik drive and a few disks. I think I paid $10 for the whole kit, used. The disks are a handy size but the format in general is incredibly stupid. Peerless remains my personal pet peeve. Iomega wants us to buy a dock, that holds a 2.5" hard disk in a proprietary enclosure, and...

I understand that Gin with lime is a good thing to drink. I don't see spinning. What's wrong with me?

Piyono - they mention MR heads. That suggests a microdrive-like magnetic disk.

I'm not completely sure if DSL is available there, but apparently it's available nearby (It's hard to find out if DSL is actually available without a phone number to plug in to the search-thingy). I'd really rather get wireless service and dump landlines completely, but that may not be an...

Spire/Speeze are all the fans I need. Sorry man.

Good lord Buck, not while I'm buying a house (my mortgage was approved today)... Oh man is that beautiful. I will have one.

In Brobdinag, 3TB represents on-line storage only. I'm not counting mirrored disks (there's about another 800GB worth of those, I think). For a long time my storage was tens and tens of 40GB drives. Now it's mostly 120s and 160s with a few 200s. When the chunks get that big, it's very, very easy...

This after the amazing success they've had with the Peerless and the 750MB ZIP. Seems to me that Microdrive and CF densities are already down to $200 for 1GB (similar density). Unless this thing is substantially cheaper in terms of $/GB and reasonably well adopted by consumer electronics, it's...

Why not? Batman has met both the Aliens and Predators in his comics (both of the latter are licensed to Dark Horse comics for the purpose of book and comic adaptations), so it's not out of line. The guy who made the movie basically wanted to show off his talents as a director. That's a pretty...

I'm presently enjoying the pleasant, floating sensation associated with Drixoral, the stuff I take when I get overexposed to things I'm allergic to. I was basically sick all weekend.

I used the @ to represent the upside-down E-thing that dictionaries use a lot. The "e-thing" is a symbol some people call a "schwa", which is the symbol for the very common English vowel sound "uh". Most people in my part of the world clearly enunciate the "B", so b@ is the sound of a clearly...

I'm confused Jake. Your post seems to indicate that there's such a thing as adequate storage capacity. I've never heard of such a thing. My ~3TB of disk space is just as inadequate as when it was only ~2TB.

I know a lot of people who can't tell the difference between stereo and mono until they stop and listen. I don't have a problem distinguishing stereo from 4ch surround or 5.1. Anyway, those people who have trouble with mono stereo... if you ask 'em what sounds better, they'll cock their head...

Try listening to something outside mainstream pop. Jazz and classical music barely exist out there.

Could it be that the 510 doesn't need a firmware update yet?

Are you "investment involved" or some form of financial pro, CityK? Personally, I'm of two minds on the subject of file sharing. I like the idea that I might be able to snag something when I want it, but realistically, the only person sharing music that *I* like is me, and that's not going to...

Mozilla 1.5a can do that.

I sorta think you're wrong, Tea. Hard disk prices, at least in the USA, are REALLY low. Fire-sale low. Generally under $1/GB for ATA drives, and in some cases only $.80. SATA drives are expensive in comparison but seem more in line with traditional pricing (around $100ish for a decent midrange...

Bitch - n. b@-itch - 1: (Prison slang). A submissive or receiving male partner in a homosexual relationship. syn: Catcher, Prag, Bottom, Nancy, Wife et al. Usage: "I'm gonna take that new boy and make him toss my salad, thus making him my bitch." 2. (Homosexual Slang): General acknowledgement of...

Dubya and Laura were at the Yankee's home opener, sitting in the First row, with the Secret Service people directly behind them. One of the Secret Service guys leaned forward and said something to Laura. She stared at the guy, looked at George, looked back at the agent, and nodded his head...

I thought everyone already knew about it... It's good, but not perfect. It does not do a very good job on stuff that comes from P2P networks. Email viruses can also be hit-or-miss. But on the whole, it works very well.

I am now posting during a power outage. UPSes are good things.

And it's only 30% louder than the 5F263B1M3. Basically it's a copper version of the MicroFlow. Certainly is pretty though.

I hate to hear about someone losing a beloved pet. It sounds silly to people who don't have an animal living in their homes, but the bonds we form with our cats and dogs are very different and very personal from those we form with people. Maybe because they understand so little of what we say...

Microsoft networking products are OEM'd stuff from SMC, if that makes a difference to anybody.

Obviously, I don't write this stuff quickly. I write a few sentences as the mood strikes me. I'm not working from any kind of plan or outline or anything else. Nor do I have any training as a writer. It's straight from my imagination to the wordperfect document where I'm doing this. I'll try...

No glint of sunlight across my badge. No jangle of spurs or steel-resolved glares from 50 paces up the street. Nanoelectric relays fire over the switched fabric of a muscular network that would do an RBOC proud. OR, NOT, XOR, AND, the hard logic of sense data combined with the stunning...

Does Nero 6 behave in a less stupid manner with regard to MPEG-2 video and DVDs? Every product I've tried thusfar has wanted to re-encode my raw MPEG-2 files prior to burning a DVD, even though I'm capping at very reasonable, standard bit rates. My DVD players can handle MPEG audio and video at...

In my experience, even with high-end 64bit ICP SCSI RAID controllers, RAID5 is slow. Software RAID5 on a pure file server (NT4/2000 or Netware - I haven't done soft RAID5 on Linux) is somewhat better, particularly for write speed. It comes down to balancing loads. Since you're talking...

I think you might be wrong. Single-chip ADSL "modems" were announced as available about two years ago. I imagine they probably work on the winmodem principle. I can't understand having a modem or broadband access device of any kind built into a motherboard. That's intensely stupid. More people...

I'm pretty much relying on Mozilla's image blocking on this site. It's probably domain based. I'm not sure.

It's only 6KB, but every one has a different image that changes periodically, which makes browser cache and local proxy server less useful. It takes me around 15 seconds to load 25-reply thread here at SF, if I'm not doing anything else. I'm genuinely concerned that five or six of the regulars...

Didn't you say at one point you had an apartment with absolutely no furniture, Howell? I went through a rough strech after Sept 11 and into early 2002 where my only income was basically selling PCs on ebay. It drove me nuts.

Caution: Very Disturbing. Why???

Yup. PW's temper tantrum.

There's actually a Phoenix database product from Starbase. Starbase is the company that objected to the Phoenix named browser.

I'd buy it, but I don't think anyone else would want it when I'm done with it. 8D

The sub-56k crowd is not happy.

You can take it out completely with msconfig, and de-install it (sorta) by killing the appropriate registry key. I'll check which key when I get to work and to an XP machine.

Weird. The new and otherwise decent 624 (G router/AP) doesn't do it, and I can remember it not being there on at least one model of B router/AP as well.

I know what you mean. The biggest curse of all, come moving day, is the book collection. Since I read a lot, I know this one all too well. Books are heavy, but you feel like a pansy if you can't carry big ol' boxes of them. After all, they're just books, right? Computer parts are very nearly...

The kernel would be the least of your worries. Really a very simple deal. Upgrading gcc is where the fun is. In general you can get to the same place. You'll orphaned files sitting around that you aren't using any more. No big deal. You may also have to re-write the odd config file. All in all...

It's all original footage. The costumes (even the aliens) were made by hand, by the director. The whole thing was shot for a budget of $30,000(!!!). Everything was done live, no CG, no models, no nothin'. Like I said, cool beyond words. Can somebody summarize Groltz's link for me now that I'm...

It's Quicktime, which is of course one of the pillars of evil in the universe, but DAMN is this cool. I love comic books. It's amazing to see Batman portrayed so faithfully.
