My company is evaluating a plan to migrate from Windows to Linux.
Can you suggest something in Linux analogous to roaming user profiles and domain users in an Active Directory environment?
I've made a script that will set an environment variable to the path in the current Explorer windows when its hotkey is pressed. However, I want this to only trigger if the active window is an Explorer window. This should do it:
#IfWinActive ahk_class ExploreWClass|CabinetWClass
#p::
SetPath()
return
#IfWinActive
But for some reason it isn't. Is there something I'm doing wrong?
VPN connection in vista is disabled with the message like "you need active internet connection"... but i'm connected to the internet.
Same issue in win7 I'm regularly solving just opening and closing properties of VPN... in vista this method failed. Last time I enabled connection after 10 min of random clickin on different properties many times and refreshing )
There is any stable way to fix the bug?
What is the web server used by "ManageEngine Firewall Analyzer". When opened and checked with firebug, it is showing "Apache-Coyote/1.1". But the Apache service is not running in Windows service manager or task manager.
If there is no active web server how does this tool running properly?
There's this Cisco Catalyst 6509 switch with 2 (two) supervisor modules; one of them is active, the other is (almost always) in standby.
We need to upgrade IOS; current version is 12.2.something (I can check exactly which one, if this does matter).
Can this be done without service interruption? Something like "upgrade the standby supervisor, activate it, upgrade the other one"?
We are trying to run the Preparation Wizard for Essential Business Server 2008 and receive the following error.
"A list of servers could not be collected from Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS). Ensure that your network is functioning correctly and that this computer can access AD DS."
Our network is an Windows Server 2003 network with all of the services running fine.
I can't run this from either a machine or a server.
Any idea where we should start?
Oracle mentions the ability to connect to their LDAP server - the Oracle Internet Directory http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/network.102/b14267/olsoid.htm. Can Oracle Label Security be configured with an alternative LDAP server such as Active Directory?
I know with readline you can use emacs or vi commands to edit the input of several
interactive text programs. I wonder if there exists such a similar facility to control
the whole desktop in Gnome or in any other desktop environment.
Maybe it could be a program that intercepts keystrokes and process them in the way vi does, translating sequences of characters to desktop commands and delivering to the active window only the text that is writen in insert mode.
Do you know some tool like that?
My organisation has Exchange 2007 e-mail server, and now, we want to host e-mail service for other organisation (neworg.com)
I added new Authoritative Active Domain neworg.com, but when adding a new mailbox, there is no option to chose new SMTP domain name neworg.com, and I can't add new user with SMTP domain [email protected].
Probably I misunderstood something while reading posts on Internet, but can someone help please?
Let's say I have two active network connections that let me out to the internet.
I want certain applications to only use Network Connection 1, while some others should use Network Connection 2.
Is this possible in Windows XP? If so, how can it be done?
I would like to know if there is a (cost free) way to backup Windows Server 2008 Active Directory and DNS settings without using Windows Server Backup.
The problem stems from not having a seperate volume available to store the resulting backup from Windows Server Backup.
I examined the command line options with wbadmin and it also expects the destination to be a dedicated volume for the backup.

Hello, i use Google Chrome as my default internet browser, im testing a code i made en html who use cookies to store a var, it works fine in chrome and firefox but seems not to save any cookies in IE8 and the IE8 seems to have active the cookies. What can be?
So on my Windows Server 2008 box, I have a DNS server installed on it. For some reason, every ten minutes or so, the Host (A) address for the computer keeps on changing to its internal private IP address. I want it to have its public address for Active Directory purposes, but it keeps changing itself back to the private IP address. Any idea as to why, and how to change it?
If it makes a difference, this is an Amazon EC2 server.
Thanks

Hello, I'm trying to solve this problem I'm having with an mdadm raid1.
I have an ubuntu 9.04 server running on a software 2-drive raid1 with mdadm. Yesterday, one of the drives failed, and so I replaced it with a brand new drive of the same size. I removed the faulty drive, copied the partition from the remaining good drive to the new drive and then added it to the raid. It re-synced and the system worked fine, until the drive that hadn't failed, was also labeled failed.
Now I had the raid running solely on the new drive. So I purchased another drive and repeated the procedure above. So now I had 2 brand new drives and the raid was syncing. However, after a few minutes I checked /proc/mdstat and the raid was no longer syncing.
mdadm --detail /dev/md1 shows: (sdb is the first new drive, and sdc is the second new drive)

I've tried removing and re-adding the drive a few times, but the same thing happens. The raid fails to resync. I've looked at /var/log/messages, and found the following:
Jun 2 07:57:36 dola kernel: [35708.917337] sd 5:0:0:0: [sdb] Unhandled sense code

Jun 2 07:57:36 dola kernel: [35708.917360] sd 5:0:0:0: [sdb] Add. Sense: Unrecovered read error - auto reallocate failed
So it looks like there's some kind of error on sdb (the first new drive). My question is, what would be the best approach to get the raid up and running again? I've thought about dd'ing the /dev/md1 to a blank hard drive, then re-doing the raid from scratch and loading the data back, but there could be an easier solution..
Any help would be appreciated.
I have a CentOS 5.5 server running Apache on port 80 as well as some other applications. All works fine until I for some reason need to restart the httpd process. Doing so returns:
sudo /etc/init.d/httpd restart
Stopping httpd: [ OK ]
Starting httpd: (98)Address already in use: make_sock: could not bind to address [::]:80
(98)Address already in use: make_sock: could not bind to address 0.0.0.0:80
no listening sockets available, shutting down
Unable to open logs
First I thought perhaps httpd had frozen and was still running, but that was not the case. So I ran netstat to find out what was using port 80:
sudo netstat -tlp
Active Internet connections (only servers)
Proto Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address Foreign Address State PID/Program name
tcp 0 0 *:7203 *:* LISTEN 24012/java
tcp 0 0 localhost.localdomain:smux *:* LISTEN 3547/snmpd
tcp 0 0 *:mysql *:* LISTEN 21966/mysqld
tcp 0 0 *:ssh *:* LISTEN 3562/sshd
tcp 0 0 *:http *:* LISTEN 3780/python26
Turns out that my python process had taken over listening to http in the instant that httpd was restarting. So, I killed python and tried starting httpd again - but ran into the same error. Netstat again:
sudo netstat -tlp
Active Internet connections (only servers)
Proto Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address Foreign Address State PID/Program name
tcp 0 0 *:7203 *:* LISTEN 24012/java
tcp 0 0 localhost.localdomain:smux *:* LISTEN 3547/snmpd
tcp 0 0 *:mysql *:* LISTEN 21966/mysqld
tcp 0 0 *:ssh *:* LISTEN 3562/sshd
tcp 0 0 *:http *:* LISTEN 24012/java
Now my java process had taken over listening to http. I killed that too and could then successfully restart httpd.
But this is a terrible workaround. Why will these python and java processes start listening to port 80 as soon as httpd is restarted? How to solve?
Two other comments. 1) Both java and python processes are started by apache from a php script. But when apache is restarted, they should not be affected. And 2) I have the same setup on two other machines running Ubuntu and there's no problem there.
Any ideas?
Edit:
The Java process listens to port 7203 and the python process supposedly doesn't listen to any port. For some reason, they start listening to port 80 when apache is restarted. This hasn't happened before. On Ubuntu it runs fine. For some reason, on my current CentOS 5.5 machine, this problem arises.
I want to cycle trough the windows of the currently active application on Mac OS X. Some applications respond to ctrl+tab but they all seem to do something else. I want to switch between the Entourage mainscreen and the message I am writing for instance. Is there a such a keyword shortcut?
I'm using XP. I have plugged in a microphone, and I need to send the input immediately to the headphone for all the time the michrophone remains active. How to do?
I have a questions regarding how to see all NICS in the solaris 8/9 SPARC boxes.
Even if they are active/inactive.
dladm show-link command does not work.
cat /etc/path_to_inst could but it's hard to make out the NICS.
Also when a cable is disconnected from the NIC ifconfig -a still shows the NIC as "UP/RUNNING"
without looking at the system message, is there a way to know that the NIC is unplugged?
Thank you!
In my windows domain, there's been happening a problem with the access to some of our shared folders: There appears a "the account is disabled" problem whe trying to access those.
When looking at the the Active Directory Groups and Users snap-in, there's no user blocked nor disabled and the users trying to access the shared folders don't have any problem logging in on their respective computers. Needless to say, they have proper permissions on the network shares to be accessed.
What might be the problem?
I have a the following test environment:
1 - Windows 2008 (DC Edition) Role - Active Directory
2 - Windows 2008 (Enterprise Servers)
I would like to create a MSSQL Cluster in this test environment. I am using a desktop PC and I would like to know
how I can configure second network card in order to configure the MSSQL Cluster?
and how I can use a shared storage without using any external drives?
I just discovered that if Windows Explorer is unpinned from my taskbar it displays the icon of the currently active folder. This is what I see if it's pinned
But if it's unpinned I see the current icon.
Downloads:
Documents:
C:
I really like seeing the "correct" icon, and I've noticed this also applies to other programs that have varying icons.
Is there a way I can have explorer pinned, but to see the icons as though it's unpinned?
I've had my HDD replaced, and now my computer is freezing every 1 to 5 minutes for 5 to 10 seconds. Actually, only active applications freeze (but it can be ANY application), usually when I click something, but sometimes by themselves. How can I check if this is HDD issue or software issue? I don't want to send my laptop for second HDD replacement right away, since the last service took 40 days, so I am looking for a tool that could confirm that this is a HDD issue.
The server has a 7-disk RAID 0 array, and sdf is starting to die.
Is there a way to remove sdf while keeping the array intact?

I have windows 7 installed.
On the moment i have the following partitions on 1 hard disk: (300 GB)
C: (Windows) (Primary, System, Boot, Page File, Crash Dump, Active) 100 GB
D: (Data) (Logical) 100 GB
E: (System Reserved created after Boot repair) (primary, system) 100 MB
Now i want to create a new primary partition on this disk, because i have +/- 100 GB left, for a new OS.
However when trying to make a new partition, it makes it a Logical partition, not Primary.
How to make it primary...?
