I am an MCSE/MCSA. What does it mean? Nothing at all...

If you're looking to learn, then certs provide a good 'path' to follow as far as acquainting yourself with the different technologies, but...

I think that the key thing to keep in mind is that everyone is different. For example, where I live, you definitely need a degree if you want to go anywhere beyond a help desk or basic support. ...

He wouldn't go to that extreme (as far as I know). I just think that he's being rude (no network etiquette) and downloading without asking. I ran Fsecure's blacklight on your hunch and it found...

So I'm sitting at my desk yesterday and my laptop's disk activity light starts flashing like crazy. I run netstat and find that the other admin is connected to my machine and I can only assume that...

Interesting...

Heh, I'm buggered. Without looking at the machine, it's difficult to troubleshoot.

If you use the GPO management tool (the new one for Win2k3), it makes it easier to...

I'd still double-check on DNS. I know that it sounds funny, but you'd be surprised at how many wieird things crop up with DNS problems. It only takes a couple of minutes to check too.

First...

how is dns working? i'm assuming that you are using a domain admin account to log on, correct?

check the event logs as well and head over to eventid.net it's a very helpful site.

Probably wouldn't show up on a query if the service was randomly named by the infecting program. My guess is that it's some form of nasty malware...

You really can destroy one of these? I thought that the trusty ole' reset button was there in case you did anything really bad... Phishphreek80, how did you ruin yours?

yeah, i just think that it's laggy. there are probably tons of people mirroring/downloading/copying from the site to ensure that those tools are still available afterwards.

It's so funny how so many people realize that these tools are unlikely to be available. As I type this, I'm waiting for the laggy Sysinternals web page to load...

What does it say about public...

that's a great idea, but i never bothered to take the time to learn how to use cain. i might take a crack at it now though. thanks for the suggestion.

Unfortunately, they weren't able to. They told me that the only way was to hard reset it. You could be right, it probably depends on who you get when you call.

I just did the hard reset rather...

We terminated an employee yesterday and he turned in his Dell Axim, password protected and all. He refused to provide my manager with the password because he left citing that he had personal...

Thanks for the info, Tiger. I didn't think of that. I'll give that a quick shot and kill the machine afterwards.

Short story is that I've got something on my network with 136 open. People have a history of bringing machines in and plugging them in, I'm just trying to get to the bottom of it without shutting...

Er, that's a description of UDP. I was looking for some info on "Profile Naming System". Thanks though!

Can anyone provide any information on port 136, the profile naming system? I'm unable to find anything other than a crappy description of UDP after a search. It appears to be something specific to...

Thanks for your post, but it doesn't look like robocopy works with share permissions-- only NTFS.

Is anyone aware if there is a way to copy file shares from one server to another while maintaining permissions. I know that xcopy works great for copying the folders along with their NTFS...

Just wanted to post back that I was able to resolve this after I had the router clone the MAC of my current machine...

When I originally bought the router, I was using another computer. I...

Hence the 'destination net unreachable' message?

I'll test that later, but the only thing that I'm questioning is why the router worked perfectly up until yesterday. What do you think?

Yesterday, at about 4:30 PM, I realized that my internet access was down. I called the cable company to report the problem, but hung up after hearing a message about ongoing maintenance in my area,...

Nope, it's a completely different situation.

Imagine that we currently have a "two-pipe" scenario where people are able to do anything that they please because of the second pipe. We'd like to...
