Anyone come across a good template/symbol pack for Visio for doing network wiring, patching, switch topologies, etc.? Everything in Visio for networking is 3D, and isn't really conducive to cabling.
I often use tortoisesvn to checkout or update a working copy on a development server. Whenever I do this, it seems to slow down the network and other users complain that browsing websites and accessing files on the dev server is slow.
Is this a common bug in Subversion or has anyone else has come across similar problems?
I get error 10048.
and this in event history:
The SQL server service terminated with server-specific error. Only one usage of each socket (protcol/network address/port) is normall permitted. Any idea howto fix this ? Port set is the default 1433... If this is turned off, which is default of course, SQL service starts like a champ. I have done this config many times on other servers with no problem.
I guess i asked a dumb question earlier. I am fairly new at this. I have a socal network being built in PHP wit MYsql. I was wondering how much bandwidth and storage would allow users to have have 500mins of streaming video and allow them to store photos and videos. Please forgive me. I am not a technology guy and just doing some research as I am learning as I go along.
Hello,
does anyone know how to backup Windows 2008 R2 with hidden partition to a network share? For Windows 2008 I used:
Wbadmin start backup -backupTarget:\\xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx\Backup -include:C:,D: -vssFull -quiet
but now when Windows 2008 R2 has his hidden 100mb partition on first disk I don't know how to add it to "-include:C:,D:".
Thanks
The question says it all. All i want is that my W-Lan connection should be disabled whenever a wired connection is available.
What would be the easiest way to do that in Ubuntu/Gnome?
In all guides (for instance some about guessnet) i found i had to configure my whole network configuration (WPA keys, DHCP, ...), but i find that a bit too complicated for such a simple use case. I just want to disable wlan0 when eth0 is connected.
I migrated a VM running Windows 3.11 for Workgroups from VMware Workstation to ESXi 4.0U1 and the networking inside the guest machine has stopped working.
I reinstalled the network card driver, and changed the VM to use a static IP but it doesn't help.
Pls help me.
I would like to make my laptop dial a VPN connection every time I connect to a specific Wifi network (ie, 'HomeNetwork'). What's the best way to accomplish this?
I'm a new Mac OS X 10.6 user, and I was trying to change the Network Proxies settings. However, it's all grayed out and was wondering how to make it editable? I'm the admin of the computer, so this is quite puzzling.
I am trying to install Ubuntu Server as a domU (Guest) on Citrix XenServer. Everything works fine but I am not able to access the internet from the guest. Is there any specific thing that I need to do to configure the network for the Guest. I have two NICs, 1 has an external IP and the other has an internal IP.
My brand new Dell XPS system has been running flawlessly except its abysmal download speeds. I have tried isolating every variable I could possibly think of but I can't figure out the problem. I've talked to Dell and Belkin without making progress (thought I'd try). Here are the speeds:
Note that most of the time, upload speeds are actually much faster than download speeds (around 4.0 Mb/s which is better than most other devices on the network)
It's not the ISP. The slowdown happens even when transferring files inside the network. Plus every other wireless device gets approximately this:
It's not the wireless router. It's a Lynksis WRT160N v1 with the latest firmware (1.02.2). Plus everything else connected to it has normal speeds.
It's not the browser. Speeds are the same in IE, FF, and when transferring files with Windows between computers.
It's not the wireless adapter. I've tried a Belkin N Wireless USB Adapter (which works fine on another computer) and a Dell Wireless Draft 802.11n WLAN Mini-Card. They have the same slow speeds when connected to the problem computer.
It's not the adapter connection. One adapter used USB and the other is a Mini-Card.
It's not antenna placement. With the same antenna position and the same device, I get different speeds when connected to the problem computer vs a good computer. Plus everything reports the connection speed as at least 11Mbps and good signal strength.
I've tried disabling IPv6 since it sometimes causes weird problems.
I've tried disabling Windows Firewall/anti-virus.
I've ensured the computer has updated drivers for both adapters.
I've ensured that Windows is up to date and so is the BIOS.
For the USB adapter I ensured that that USB port functioned at normal speeds with other USB devices.
What else could it possibly be? I finally received my copy of Windows 7 and will be trying that. I'd rather not install Windows 7 because of a particular program that will stop working so a solution besides that is welcome.
Specs:
Vista x64
Core i7 920
6GB RAM
500GB HD
GTX 260
Can anyone tell me why we have multiple instances of the same computer (SALLY) under network in the open file dialog. Please see the image below.
This is not an issue in itself, however I am wondering if it is related to some file corruption issues we have been having lately.
All pc's are windows 7. Server is Windows Server 2008 R2. We are using folder redirection, roaming profiles and offline files.
hello.my network manager in opensuse 11.2 kde environment not working.after clicking.nothing action is being takes place.what should i do.i have to connect to the internet thriugh this.i have airtel macromax usb plug and play device
The passwords cached for Network shares on other computers and applications like MSN Live, MS Outlook, Sharepoint portal, Outlook Webmail, etc are lost when I reboot my computer, which runs on Vista.
I always check the Remember password checkbox in applications/login dialogs where ever prompted.
I cannot imagine of a third party program that may clean up this on system restart/shutdown.
Any idea, as to what is going wrong?
We are building a farm of test servers. Currently we have 8 servers. We are planning to use the servers to test the following
Mysql Cluster
Xen or KVM virtualization
Heartbeat/Pacemaker/DRDB
What tools do experienced sysads use for:
Initial installation of operating system( installing centos 5 or ubuntu server manually 8 times seems like a tedious task that just begs for automation)
Centralized Configuration Management and Software Updates for Host and possibly Guest(virtualized) servers
Hardware, Services and Network Monitoring
I fell into a snare when i downloaded and install virtual box 4.0 on my ubuntu 10.4, when i started the virtualbox i tried i saw that my network icon on my desktop showed my red x showing iam disconnected and this happened shortily when i installed virtual box 4.0
I have searched through the web and found some people who have faced some problem. but the solution they gave them i tried but it coudn't work, of restarting,starting ,stoping the netowrk manager, i was even thinking of uninstalling this virutalbox but not netowrk connection
truely i need your help
Getting informed on setting up a home network so i can use VPN on my PS3, i live in Mexico but want the programming available in the US.
Getting a little confused as every sites gives you different options, both in hardware and software.
specially on subjects like dd-wrt, dns or vpn options...
i know there is no "best" setup, but are there any tried and true??
Options in hardware and software would be apreciated...
My network utilization in windows never seems to get above 1%.
This seems absolutely tiny, does anyone know why it is so low and if there is anyway to increase it(or if it indeed does need increased)
FYI: I use a D-LINK USB wireless adaptor
I have a charity who have two adjacent medium sized modern detached houses (in the UK): the buildings stand next to each other and are less than 5 metres apart. They have DSL connected to a single computer in one of the buildings. They want to add a network with wireless, and want it to work across both buildings. Being a charity they need to keep costs down. The network would be used for sharing Word documents, e-mail, browsing and skyping.
My initial thoughts were to connect the buildings with fibre. So:
Option 1
Use fibre between the buildings. Sufficient cable and two TP-LINK MC100CM Fast Ethernet Media Converters. Cost ~£80.00.
But there is the extra cost and hassle of running the cable down and up the external walls, lifting and relaying paving, and burying underground.
Never having fitted fibre I'm also a little worried about going up the wall and then bending the cable at 90 degrees to go through the wall and into the building.
Option 2
Use two TP-Link TL-WA7510N High Powered Outdoor 5Ghz 15dBi Wireless antennas to connect the buildings. There is a clear line of sight at first floor level. Cost ~£100. And much easier to fit than fibre!
Is using the TL-WA7510Ns overkill? Is there something more suitable? I had hoped to use some Netgear stuff, e.g. two DGN2200, one in each house and also use them to provide the wireless link between the buildings. However, in bridge mode wireless client association is not available and repeater mode with client association only supports WEP security which isn't strong enough. Is there something similar that would be up to the job?
Option 3
Connect the buildings with UTP cable. My concerns here are risk of electric shock due to a difference of potential between the buildings (or are they so close this shouldn't be an issue) and protection from lightning strikes. Is fitting lighting arrestors expensive? And what can be done to ameliorate against the risk of shock?
This all falls outside my area of expertise so I would really appreciate some advice.
Hi
My system is behind a Linux firewall, where eth0 is connected to internet and eth1 is connected to my LAN. The issue is I am not able to ping to outside my network.
The iptables rule I have used here as below.
iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -s 192.168.1.0/24 -p icmp -j SNAT --to-source $PUBLICIP
Please correct me if I am doing anything wrong here.
Warm Regards

I have set up a local network and it seems that some of us can use it properly while others can't. The problem seems to be that the local hostnames I setup don't get resolved for everyone.
To overview how the network is setup:
I am running an Ubuntu 10.01 server using dnsmasq, this server is setup to act as our primary DNS server, configured via our router.
dnsmasq is configured using the options of
domain-needed
bogus-priv
I use the /etc/hosts file to determain the hostnames
192.168.1.10 ra.xsi
192.168.1.10 test.xsi
From my machine:
If I dig the hostnames they resolve properly

Ping also works:

2 packets transmitted, 2 packets received, 0% packet loss
round-trip min/avg/max/stddev = 0.699/0.766/0.834/0.068 ms
And login via SSH works using the hostname.
For those that cannot connect using hostnames, if I dig from their machine it appears the name is being resolved, but they cannot ping, SSH or http access the hostname.

I've been banging my head at this and just can't seem to figure it out.
I can connect to other computers on my home network (ubuntu + OSX machines) using the IP address, but I can't connect using the netbios name.
On the mac the name appears in Finder but if I try to connect (goconnect to server smb://[email protected]) it doesn't work, while smb://[email protected] does. Same with ssh, ping and afp between the macs.
This is a intermittent problem. It has worked in the past.
I'm using Ubuntu 9.10 on a Lenovo T61 (in case that matters). Network Manager connects just fine to my hidden SSID, every time. Sometimes, though, it can take upwards of a minute or more to do it. When you're sitting there, staring at the screen, that can seem interminable. Any hints on how I can fix this or manually force a connection?
Thanks!
