Discovered a new wine? Mmmm....Primativo....

Almost? Nevermind, Merc is good enough reason to drink through a hangover!

I'll drink to that!

I actually still use "net send" and the messanger service for interfacing with a POS foxpro app....

Oh, god......the SNR is astounding....perhaps I'll just expirament on my own. :(

According to Spacemonger: 50% of my storage is MP3 20% is Video (non-porn - TV Shows and movies) 15% is ISOs 10% is porn 5% is misc. downloads

I've been out of the overclocking game for a long time, but as I'll be installing a 3D-accelerated GPU to my machine for the first time in over a year, I'm tempted to look into getting some more power out of my box. Any favorite websites for this kind of thing? I currently use CrystalCPUID to...

It's not that much if you stick to high-quality video; DVDs and...erm...home movies :mrgrn:

-fNI didn't work for me. It just freezes on the splash screen. I think I need the newer version that works from within windows...

SPCR was hacked overnight, could have been due to this. I can't think hacking an enthusiast site would be a wise move, considering geeks have teeth

Yes, 9TB would be an unwieldly amount of porn. I'm only sporting a Hedgehog myself... :eekers:

Also not what you were after, but I know my 3Ware cards have activity lights for each channel, that could be very festive on a RAID-5 array...

-fNI? Never heard of that option...interesting. I've had good luck with Ghost 2003 using PCI-based SATA controllers in the past, but this time it really freaked out, I had to assume it was the fact that the controller was part of the chipset.

...that can handle chipset-based SATA ports, like those on the nForce3 250Gb I have now. Let me now state for the record that everyone here is correct, and that Norton Ghost 2003 blows major chunks. Also, that having spare hard drives sitting around, parralel installs of XP, and partition...

Indeed, a day for anyone to be jealous of. Happy Birthday, BTW.

I'll have to second the Merc ruling part...but do share!

That is the plan.

Tell me about it. What am I doing on the 25th? Driving from Santa Barbara to Eugene...alone :cry:

The athlon64 is darned efficient. That's why my desktop can spend 90% of it's time at 800Mhz.

I won some pants!

It's not the falling that kills you. It's that sudden stop at the end...

I think that's one of the most beautiful bridges I've ever seen. And I had the Golden Gate out my living room window for a year. I agree that the area is beautiful, but I don't think this bridge negatively impacts it.

Yeah, I'm afraid I'm out of the mix for a while. Not only does the client negatively impact the gaming systems, but my home system is now a fanless box that can't handle 100% CPU usage. I still have a number of servers and other workstations, but not the big iron I once was.

I'll third NOD32. I got it on reccomendation from here a few weeks ago. and now have it installed on a bunch of machines, I also am using their remote admin package and their MS Exchange plugin. All are working very well and without hassle. I was quite amazed at the simplicity of their MS...

Interesting...the OS installed on the drive was "Windows Whistler Professional" according to the boot.ini file. I always wonder why this survives a format...

Only if he takes me with him. There's no way I'll be down there before next August otherwise...

I have flash click-to-view installed and it crashes for me too. WinXP SP2, FF 1.0

That's one of the reasons I'm posting it here, Mark. Unfortunatly, I need to put the drive into production tonight, so I'll be destroying the evidence. Any util that can check SMART data can tell the number of times the drive was spun up; that would be enough.

Better. I just installed the drive and it still has data on it :o If I had more time, I'd discover the original owner and let them know they were screwed. Whatever, I'm in a hurry.

I just unwrapped a Samsung 80GB PATA drive from the ABS plastic wrapper it was shipped to me in from newegg. I bought it new for ~$70 about 2 weeks ago. I notice as I'm installing it that it already has a significant amount of dust around the screw heads and sides, clear signs IMO of a used...

Well, swapping optical and cable did nothing. Doing a mobo swap as we speak. Back to a good ol' MSI K8T NEO FSR...stupid SATA driver floppy....

goys.....hah! You don't know the number of times I re-read the entire thread looking for where Howell's comment came from.

Thanks Merc, thats what I was thinking. The only ISDN/router review I could find was from 1999 and the two "winners" of the bunch are the two I've already tried.

I accidentally posted this help thread at SR instead of SF. I don't want to double-post, but I know many of the people I'd like to read it don't frequent there. What do you goys think of posting at both?

Bump. I need to send in my reccomendation tomorrow. If all you had was an ISDN to the internet and needed to get a LAN onto a VPN, what would you do? What would you buy? I can do almost anything I want within those limitations.

That link just cause me to spend a lot of time at http://www.redbullairrace.com/ thanks a lot :roll:

If only they would just market a motherboard with the features I want integrated - Soundstorm, PCI-E attached GigE and SATA, Socket939, 4 DIMM slots, and a top-end graphics card. I'd even put up with it being an nVidia card for the convienece of having it all on the motherboard.

It is tempting to put in a PC with VPN software and some form of ICS, thoughts?

Well, I have these spiffy Linksys VPN routers that seem to work fairly well (time knows better than I), and the first thing I thought of was to use the same device on both ends and use the modem in passthrough mode for compatability's sake. Then I decided it would be sompler to use the same...

NAV Corp? F-Secure? What app would you use to secure a network of 50+ workstations and 10 servers? Some Exchange integration would be nice as well.

That about sums it up. I have a remote location 30 miles from anywhere, barely in ISDN range, and need an ISDN LAN modem that is capable of serving as a VPN endpoint as well. I've tried 3Com's OCLM series, as well as Netopia's R300. Both claim VPN passthrough capability, neither works. Help?

"This is my kernel, this is my gun..."

Wow, not cheap.

Format and install XP :P

My total Linux experience is 2 GUI-based installs and prompt formatting due to inability to configure sound and video to my taste or install anything at all. If your students are at my level, my condolences. I'd like a class to start with: 1. Installation basics ...partition management...

Going back is clearly the wrong solution. Hosting a webserver, FTP, RDC, whatever behind a router is really, really easy. Do it and thank yourself in all the time you saved from reconfiguring a computer.

From what I've gathered, VPN uses more complicated stuff than just ports; you need to have PPTP(?) forwarding enabled. See if you can set the ICF to specifically allow VPN connections.

From a current thread @ SR, it implys that an ASUS rep stated the cards are for graphics cards only.

I'm of the opinion that most everything will continue the current trend of motherboard integration with the sole exception of video cards. It's been a long time since I had a card besides video in a gaming machine.
