wbadmin backup windows 2008 server ... local backup only?
wbadmin backup windows 2008 server ... local backup only? ntbackup is gone
you have to add the wbadmin feature as a feature in server manager
worse, it can backup to network drive ... as I recall, it wont support tape either.
it suppose to backup to local device, and that local device shouldn't be system drive

linksys USB wireless - G network adaptor
I used the vista driver in my desktop W7 PC, that crashed often, especially browsing chinese website.
now I manually updated the windows 7, ralink driver replaced the original driver. the connection rate increased from 11mpbs to 24~38mbps. the new problem is that the connection is not stable. sometimes it just drops.
quite annoying.

shadow protect IT edition pen drive or
usb drive or usb stick whatever the name
you can create a cd from an ISO file in the pen drive.
but when you use the cd, either put in the windows or boot from cd, it will look for a license file on the local-subnet... you can start the license from the pen drive ...
how lame that is ...

Determining the MTU Value for Your Internet Connection
Contact your ISP for the recommended MTU size for your Internet connection (cable, DSL, T1, etc...) or you can also use the PING command at the Operating System prompt to determine the MTU size.
Ping -f -l #
Example: Ping -f -l 1500 www.yahoo.com
Note: Reduce packet size by 8 byte (1500-8 = 1492, 1484, 1404, etc.) until you get 0% packet LOSS.
Example: Ping -f -l 1492 www.yahoo.com
I steal this from sonicwall manual

saga continues with compaq 615
nullwell, after reloading the windows xp from scratch, I still have a re-crashing notebook compaq 615... long story why they bought it...
anyway called hp tech again, I am told ...
