Whenever I start my VM (Server 2003) it fails to pick up an IP address. It doesnt matter whether bridged or host and affects more than one image. If I set a static iP in the image on the same subnet as the host I cant ping anything on the network.
Any ideas?
I'm into web development and my machine (AMD Phenom II, 8G RAM) is running Ubuntu 13.04. I love my current setup but I kinda miss some of Windows software like MSOffice or Adobe suites, and running on Virtualbox doesn't feel as snappy for me.... So I'm thinking of buying a new cheap machine where I would install Linux and do my development work…
I have a long running script that every hour opens a file, prints to it and closes the file. I've recently found very rarely, the print is failing, not because I'm testing the status of the print itself but rather due to the fact of missing entries in the file until the system is actually rebooted!
I do trap for file open failures and write a…
I did the Windows 8 Pro upgrade machine w/ 64GB SSD. Finding 64GB not enough, I ordered a 128 GB SSD (Samsung 830) while planning to use CloneZilla to clone the Windows 8 OS to it.
I might try using the 64GB SSD (with the Windows 8 upgrade on it) as a boot drive in a backup machine. I understand that I need to do some registry work to make it…
I often use tab completion in Bash when completing directories, but I find that it hangs for an unacceptable amount of time if I accidentally include a question mark in the directory. I'd like to know why and how to prevent it if possible. Here's the scenario:
I start a command and use the ~ key to represent home:
ls ~?Desktop/co
Oops! I…
What would the best Linux operating system for hosting a Web/SVN/etc. server? One thing that it needs to have is no windowing system installed by default.
Thanks in advance!
My Vista Business machine, running Ultramon, has three monitors attached. When I lock the machine, the monitor layout stays correct. When I unlock it, I watch as all my screens flicker (as they are being re-configured), and Vista chooses some crazy layout for the monitors. The most recent one is below, but it's never consistent.
Any ideas…
I created a pivot chart based on some raw data for the x axis (dates)
and 4 calculated fields for the Y values.
The values on resulting lines are correct (see the data label at the end of the line)
but the Y axis is off by about 100, but not off by any consistent amount.
I have played with auto axis on and off, turn log scale on and off.…
I use rsync to backup my remote server on my local device but when I combine it with a cron job my ssh times out. Just to be clear, the data is stored on a remote server and I want it stored on my local server. The backup request must be sent from my local server to the remote server.
The command for backup up the data is working when I…

Specs:
Intel® NM10 Express chipset /w Intel® Atom® D525 (dual-core, 1.8 GHz)
I think the most I can put in there for RAM is 4 GB. (They don't make 8 GB SODIMM do they?)
The Dolphin site is pretty vague about requirements:
Windows XP or higher, or Linux, or MacOSX Intel

I'm using Windows 7 Enterprise. When I click on a favorite folder (left hand pane) in a My Computer window, it opens into a new window even though I have the folder options set to "open each folder in the same window". Is there anyway to change this?
I'm about to upgrade my computer but might keep some parts. Just wandering what I would have to keep to prevent me having to reinstall my OSs, at the moment I have a dual boot setup with ubuntu and windows 7. I'm pretty sure you can't just take your hard drive with the OS on it and put it into a different box and keep going (can…
I'm having trouble connecting to a particular website. I can view it through a proxy, but not from home. So I ran a traceroute:

over a maximum of 30 hops:
1 <1 ms <1 ms <1 ms <snip>

Does anyone know how to modify the database settings for the Enterprise Search administration web site? When you configure the service application via Central Administration, SharePoint just decides to use the default database server and gives a name like Enterprise_Search_DB_Identifier. I want to modify this to atleast give a…
I have this laptop, which has a i3 processor, 4gb memory, 7200rpm hard drive. So there is nothing wrong with the specs.
Even when I have no applications open, simply closing and opening windows, lags.
Or opening the start menu, or dragging icons across the desktop. sometimes even the cursor lags.
So I checked out the resource…
I have a server running an established PHP site, as well as some Django apps.
Currently, a VirtualHost set up for PHP listens on port 80, and requests to certain directories are proxied to a VirtualHost set up for Django with WSGI.
I'd like to change it so Django handles anything not existing as a PHP script or static file.

Given:
A VM running Windows 2008
I am logged on there using my domain account (SHUNRANET\markk)
I have added the "Create global objects" privilege to my domain account:
The VM is restarted (I know logout/logon is enough, but I had to restart)
I logon again using the same domain account. It seems still to have the privilege:

Is there any way to provide 100% uptime on SQL Server 2008 R2?
From my experience, the downtimes for the different replication methods are:
Log Shipping: Lots (for DR only)
Mirroring w. NLB: ~ 45 seconds
Clustering: ~ 5-15 seconds
And all of these solutions involve all of the connections being dropped from the source, so…
I'm the proud owner of a new IPad here in the UK. All is good, except for the wifi, which is a bit flakey. It connects fine to my Draytek router which is set for WPA/WPA2 and 56g only, displaying full signal strength. Then, after a few minutes, it goes down to minimum strength... And sometimes it goes back up again. A few…
As long as my tables were less than 100, MySQL performed reasonably well but when they started to grow to more than a few hundrets, it (MYSQL) has become extremely slow. Now my tables are 1k and are very small and most contain less than 20-30 records.
Is there a specific MySQL setting which I should consider, in order…
I'm running Excel 2003 on my new Windows 7 machine. (There is also a Excel 2010 starter pre installed that I do not use).
I'm a heavy user of Excel. I use it all day every day. I often have 10 or 15 sheets open and once and many of them have cell references to each other. I also have a macro file that keeps all my…
I'd recently installed a package and discovered my scp stopped working. After removing and installing some things I got it fixed but then I stated getting errors in apt-get about
dpkg: error: configuration error: /etc/dpkg/dpkg.cfg.d/multiarch:1: unknown option 'foreign-architecture'
so I commented it out and…
I have a Lenovo X200 laptop on which I am running Ubuntu 9.10. Recently, (I assume after some updating, but I really don't know) my ethernet port stopped working under Linux. A more tech/linux-savvy friend of mine was able to temporarily fix the problem by manually editing the resolv.conf file with the DNS servers…
I'm using Ubuntu 11.04 LTS server, it's a new install on a VPS box from MediaTemple (their ve server). I'm trying to install PHP 5.4.3 on this box, but I'm having a common problem not matter what version I get. I'm trying to get the php-cgi process, so I do the command apt-get install php-cgi and that installs,…
