Try going to Control Panel > Folder Options > View tab and check "Always show icons, never thumbnails". See if that helps?!
As you know, it didn't work but it was worth a try. Tonight I'll try a few more things. First off, I'll try putting these folders right on the C: drive instead of on the desktop. Then I'll try disabling UAC (which I think I tried already and didn't work). And then I'll look into the "Off-line file sync" Windows feature that is apparently turned on by default...
Fingers are crossed that it'll just work if I move them off the desktop...
Moving the files to directories directly under the C: drive didn't work. A little more investigating and yes, this is a common problem with Vista and people have named it "Vista's Long Goodbye" (although for me it's permanent until reboot). So Microsoft acknowledges the issue but will give no explanation. While I'm waiting for my fix ... here are two reliable links...

Couple things that I was thinking about with this (not that either will provide a fix) had to do with the difference between your situation and Mine. The first thing that came to mind is the fact that you are on a domain. I wonder if there is any sort of caching going on that would be affecting this?
The other thing I was thinking about that your problem is only with these specific folders, and the problem follows the folders. The problem is only there after you create a new set of files, and goes away after a reboot until you create new files. This leads me to believe that there is a helper DLL of some sort for one of your programs accessing this folder that is not being properly disposed when the program is closed. Have you tried checking that with each of these programs your memory and number of running processes goes back to what it was before use upon close? I imagine you will see a slight increase in memory useage and/or an additional process (that may have an obscure name). You might also find an unlocker program that lists out what programs/dlls are using the locked files to help track something like this down.
Just my 2¢
I always just type in "gmail.com" to my browser, but you can use the full http://www.gmail.com or http://mail.google.com. Although this isn't the secure version of gmail, I have never had an issue with an error while loading. I tested doing https://www.gmail.com and although it works, firefox tells you that the certificate being used is not registered to gmail, but rather mail.google.
After your suggestion, I looked into this. I already had it in my menu, and I agree it is quite interesting to play with. I especially liked how you can set up your fantasy team and it will track all of your players for you.
I like the Scoreboard feature the best. I like how you can drill down into each game for detailed stats. I only wish you could get some high-def resolution through it, then I would scrap my cable box altogether.
I had no idea you can track a fantasy team. That's the only good reason I have to actually try fantasy football, so maybe next season I'll give it a shot.
I think it's a power problem. It usually happens when the dryer in the basement is turned on... but not always.
I know I'm the girlfriend..but my goodness is that a cute puppy!
This is SWEET! Looks awesome dude
So tonight I replaced with power-supply with a new Antec NeoPower 500W Modular PSU. Only $60 at Fry's. I also replaced the Pentium D 935 3.2ghz CPU with a Core 2 Duo E4500 2.2ghz. It's a slower speed but according to the hardware charts it's faster, cooler and gives all-around better performance. And it bumped up my CPU rating in Vista from 4.8 to 5.0. So ........ if this doesn't stop it from re-booting then it's the memory or the power coming from the wall. Fingers crossed.
Didn't reboot last night, yay. I think the new power supply fixed the problem.
Hi
Know EXACTLY what you mean with this MOBO A770-m and the exact same as you had with driver patch for graphics PCIe.
First did you find success?? Please explain if so as I am banging head hard agaist wall
rangie
Unfortunately, updating the BIOS didn't fix my problem. I eventually figured out that the random rebooting was being caused by a failing power-supply which I replaced and the system has since been stable (refer to the "What's Wrong with my Computer" post).
What kind of problems are you seeing with yours?
Vista Service Pack 1 fixed it!
Added a Skulltrail system to the list :)
So what was the problem? I use photoshop all the time, would be good to know the problem/solution in case I encounter the situation too.
A couple of gradient layers were on top of a white background layer. I changed the background to blue but the gradients still faded to white. Right-click the gradient layers, Blending Options, then apply "Multiply" which is one of the choices.
Sweet! I'm glad I saw this post. I always wanted to do this, but never got around to doing the research. Now in about 10 minutes I've got pfSense PPTP users authenticating against the domain. Thanks for the great post!
Hi,
There is a video which demonstrates step-by-step the request and installation of GoDaddy SSL certificate:
www.netometer.com/.../iis7-godaddy-ssl-certificate
It is important to install first the Intermediate Certificates. In case you have installed first your certificate you have to follow the troubleshooting outlined in:
www.netometer.com/.../index.php
The troubleshooting steps for IIS6 and IIS7 are the same.
Generally GoDaddy allows you to Re-key your certificate up to 3 times, in a 30 days period after you’ve purchased the certificate.
It is a good practice to export your new certificate and keep it in a safe place (together with the Intermediate Certificates) for backup and recovery purposes. Of course, you can download the intermediate certificates anytime but it is easier to have then handy instead of looking for them online and downloading them.
If the server dies and you have to re-install it or you are moving the websites to a new server you can simply import (first the Intermediate certificates) your certificate in the new server. That’s easier, and besides that the right approach to do it.
I will be posting a separate video about this as it seems a lot of people are migrating/upgrading to IIS7 and face the problem with exporting/importing their public certificate(s).
Some people are posting the question – can I run a web server farm (using load balancing for example) and install the same certificate on all the servers. You can physically do this but that’s illegal. You can not use simultaneously the Turbo SSL certificate on more then one servers.
The process of importing/exporting SSL certificate described above assumes that you will stop using it on the old server.
Regards,
Dean
I tried a similar installation procedure and got an error when trying to import the .crt file from GoDaddy.
CertEnroll::CX509Enrollment:_InstallResponse ASN1 bad tag value met 0x8009319b (ASN.267)
this occurred when I clicked OK in the Specify Certificate Authority Response dialog.
any ideas what could be causing this?
Jim - I would try re-keying your certificate again. If you've got a regular GoDaddy SLL certificate and you're running Server 2008, then the instructions above should work. Maybe your CSR wasn't pasted properly? I just select all of the text, including the comments, and it works. Make sure you choose IIS in GoDadddy? The default is Apache. And make sure you install the Intermediate certificate before importing your certificate.
Dean - Interesting that you can't apply the same certificate to servers in a web farm... I didn't know that. I would guess that companies buy a wildcard SSL certificate (*.domain.com) to take care of that issue. Then I imagine they'd be allowed to install that certificate on as many machines as they'd like.
Pingback from Exchange 2007 POP3 and IMAP4 via BlackBerry Internet Service (BIS)
Excellent instructions for how to setup Blackberry professional to work with Exchange 2007.
Unfortunately you cannot have a blackberry configured to two different BES servers simultaneously :-(
It looks like your mobile provider has provisioned the device for BIS and BES, so you could explore the options for BIS connecting to your home Excahnge via OWA.
Haha! I figured that out the hard way and forgot to make a note of it in my post. Once connected to my own Exchange server I was completely disconnected from my work email. I had to call infrastructure and explain that my blackberry somehow reset itself :) Some people on forums out there say it is possible, but I can confirm at this point it's not. I've resorted to IMAP4 thought BIS which is good enough.
Install FreeNAS (and most such tools) in VMware (or other VM solution). It wastes less hardware and works great. (Probably a new system wasn't even warranted in the first place.)
Thanks Matt, this worked great for me. Glad to have your site as a resource since Godaddy hasn't updated their instructions for IIS7.
That would require a beefier machine, more software, more complexity. The whole point was to build a super-lean (and really cheap) machine and stuff it full of hard drives. And have the OS run off a usb key so we could just pop it out for exceptional security.
Glad it works great for you, but my experience with FreeNAS sucked. I wouldn't recommend it to anyone.
My computer also infected with "Antivirus XP 2008" when I was surfing the net, but I solved the problem after read your article.
Thanks a lot. :-)
Tried to set this up on an old dual Athlon 2400MP. Gigabit SERVER board and (2) 200 Gig Hard drivers. Thried to set up the Software Raid 1. I get an error stating there must be two disks in a volume (which there are). The 2 disk are even listed below in the provider box....WTF. Just because its' free doesn't mean it is any good. Tried windows home server and it was fully funtional in an hour.
Help! I still cant get it work.

There are quite a few things that could be causing the problem (firewall, pbx, ip phones, router, the settings teliax tells you to use, etc).
The best thing to do to start diagnosing your problem is to download and install the free version of the X-Lite softphone from CounterPath. Using a microphone, speakers, and your Teliax account information you should be able to easily send and receive calls. Enter your Teliax info like this:
Add new SIP Account.
Display Name = Teliax Username
User Name = Teliax Username
Password = Teliax Device Password
Authorization Username = Teliax Username
Domain = xxx.teliax.net
Check "Register with domain and receive incoming calls"
Select "Send outbound via... Domain"
If you can send and receive calls, you know the problem lies within your firewall/pbx/phone configuration. If not, the problem is on Teliax's end.

Pingback from User links about "crossbrowser" on iLinkShare
WOW! This is the first negative mention I have seen about FreeNAS, which is good. It is always good to hear people's troubles with a system.
I had little to no trouble setting up FreeNAS this weekend. I used an older computer I had laying around. And also, I have not tried setting up a RAID yet (I thought I would get up and running first then break it incrementally ;-)), but from what I have read it seems pretty easy. It sounds like two things may be at play to cause the two people above so much trouble; hardware that wasn't compatible, and/or lack of research (RTFM ;-)).
Cheers!
Just happened to me! That website is STILL up, STILL in google search results, and STILL infecting computers!
Thanks, this was driving me nuts, I use several Remote Desktop sessions throughout the day and my keys always got stuck, I reverted to a reboot to fix it.
Your solution works.
Good Info. I wrote a similar piece with some other details on generating CSR's. Just subscribed to your RSS. Good stuff man.

The VLC Telnet interface uses a default port of 4212. It took a little while to figure that out.
And the VLC Telnet interface default password is admin, although you can specify your own with the command line parameter --telnet-password somepassword.
Did you format the raid array to UFS after it was created prior to setting the mount point? FYI, there is a forum at sourceforge that can help you with these issues.
Yes I did. I read in the documentation somewhere that Software RAID sets should or must use UFS, so I remember that's what I chose and that's what took all night to process in Problem 4.
I had the same problem with Freenas RAID but I went to the command line and mounted the raid partition manually (after formatting it as UFS from the web interface). After mounting the partition, I went back to the web interface to complete the share name and it worked properly then.
I keep getting an error when setting a mounting point as well.
3 drives (scsi)
Just setting up 1 36gb drive, UFS, Formatted Ok, but cannot mount disk point. Have tried this several time on 3 different disks.
FreeNas has nothing about this on the support forums.
I may just go with ClarkConnect after all.
I never understand why someone would complain about something that was given to them. I also can not understand that someone would go out and purchase all new hardware before even trying it first. Yes I had some problems as well when first learning to use it but I worked through them then I purchased some new hardware. Take in mind that FreeNAS was made to use up that old hardware that you have laying around not the latest "you can't get drivers" hardware.
It's easy to understand, I wasted a lot of time on this project and I write about my personal experiences. I'm not asking people to fix these issues because I had problems, that would be complaining. I'm stating the issues I encountered and my own experience to contribute to the big ol' knowledge base in the sky.
Corey340, maybe that would have resolved my issue, thanks for the info. If I ever try it again I'll keep that in mind.
Great tutorial thanks. Here is drop shadow generator: http://www.dropshadowz.net
Thank you!! I had used "domain" instead of the domain name!
You really need to check on hardware compatibility before you buy new for any linux/BSD project.
I have FreeNAS installed on 2 different boxes.
One with software PATA RAID 0 (yes, call me a mad man). The other on a box w/ integrated SATA RAID 1.
Both work fine. I had a tough time getting boot from USB key. Was able to write img to USB key as in instructions, but it would not boot on home machine (SiS chipset) no matter what I tried. Took to office, put in machine w/ Intel chipset, booted up. Installing on USB does make for a VERY SLOW bootup. I ended up using a spare hdd for boot.
I wish you had given it more of a chance, it really is great stuff.
That 4 TB NAS would've SMOKED.
thanks,
ds
While FreeNAS does have a bit of a learning curve to initially set up, once you play with it a bit it is very powerful. I have a machine running with (6) 500GB SATA drives in a RAID5 array, and I love it! Of course, there are certain quirks that I have encountered, but that is to be expected with any beta software.
Has anyone had experience with FreeNAS using Active Directory? I have successfully got it up and running, however it seems I am doing something wrong with permissions management.
Thanks for this fix! I was having trouble with my sub-menu items in Opera. I inserted this code into my basePage and all is fixed. Thanks again!
I have the exact same problem as you. Have you tried anything else? I've been unable to find a solution. So, we'll be getting the same email twice on our phones as well as whatever email we'll reply to from Outlook!
I didn't set up my Blackberry internet yet, but i'm already not looking forward to it! Thanks guys.
Yeah it's pretty annoying. I've read some articles about setting up filters to fix the problem, but that's more than I want to do as I'm the only one connected through BIS. If you figure it out, and it's easier than it looks, let me know. I'd appreciate it.
Better documentation of the Active Directory configuration would sure go a long way!
It's kind of ironic. I came online search for people who had problems setting FreNAS with RAID. After reading the postings I realized what was I doing wrong. I was able to mount the RAID partition successfully. But I agree with the moderator, it is not an intuitive process and it's very time-consuming.
Thank you very much, this fix also work for me. Is it possible to have a declarative way which only require Web.config ?

Hi, your script is a good solution, but there's a procedure\windows tools for make a backup without powerdown the machines?? With windows server 2008 i need another volume that for the moment doesn't exist...
THX a lot
I think you're asking if there is a way to backup VMs without shutting down. Yes, you can use "Snapshots" but they aren't the same as full backups and there are some horror stories out there about people relying on snapshots and then losing their entire system! If you're able to shutdown your machines during some regular interval, I've found this is the best way to backup your virtual machines so far.
ive tried all config and spent countless hours on the phone with RIM and all roads point to no solution... i think RIM is using this to push people over to BES and i think that earns them a " sneaky little devil " award... :)
if anyone in the whole wide world can please please fix this... i did hear RIM say that " oh well your provider must be using patch ... (*& "
so apparently they are blaming this on some security patch ... for those of you who admin your own 2007 boxes this is something to look into... ill dig up the name of the patch...
good night and good luck !
You and me both. I've learned to just live with these duplicate messages. If they are just trying to push everyone into buying a BES server they're going to need all the help they can get. I just hooked up an iPhone to my Exchange server using ActiveSync ... bunkerhollow.com/.../connect-an-iphone-to-exchange-2007-via-activesync.aspx ... and it's awesome! There's no need for a BlackBerry server anymore!
I've done the same with the alpha, and then forgot it all when the beta came out so went through all the pain again.
Needless to say I didn't write it down that time either!
Now it's time for RC2 and your notes are gonna help lots.
The ajax controls version issues I solved in a different way. Instead of using YAFs old versions I used bindingRedirects in the web.config.
Like so:
<runtime>
<assemblyBinding xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v1">
<dependentAssembly>
<assemblyIdentity name="AjaxControlToolkit" publicKeyToken="28f01b0e84b6d53e" />
<bindingRedirect oldVersion="1.0.20229.26329" newVersion="3.0.11119.25533"/>
</dependentAssembly>
</assemblyBinding>
</runtime>
Thanks for your suggestion on the Ajax problem. I like that solution better.
i get the exact same error but havne't found any resolution. any luck on your side?
Actually no, I thought this fixed it but it didn't. I've given up on it since I rarely reboot, but if you figure it out let me know.
You may also want to add as a note that your VmBackup.bat will fail for 64-bit Hyper-V installs. It's because by default PowerShell installs to "syswow64" instead of "system32". I'd say that many are running Hyper-V on x64 so this would be useful to know.
Are you sure it will fail? I'm definitely running 64bit and it turns out I have both paths... so it either installs both by default or at some point I installed the x86 version unnecessarily.
doesn't work in IE8
IE8 is in beta, but regardless, I won't be making any changes to this script. I'm not using it anymore.
A much better way of performing (online) backups of VM's, which will also include snapshots is to use the Server 2008 command DISKSHADOW.
DISKSHADOW will allow you to take a snapshot of the volume holding the VM's, which you can then mount as a drive letter and copy of the contents.
New to Trixbox... Having problems setting up a test server to send voicemail emails. Your post hit me in the forehead with a clue. The SMTP server needs to be local, eh?
I don't think your SMTP server has to be local, but if you're not using Webmin the SMTP settings are limited on the Trixbox configuration page so you may not be able to connect to certain external servers (Gmail, Yahoo, etc). However, if you setup Webmin, you should have enough options to send mail using any SMTP server.
fab, thanks for the tips! and so easy to understand, cheers.

It is possible to import a database created on a different host into godaddy db you use the import function instead of the restore -- you can also ftp the file that go daddy creates off the server and import it somewhere else if you want
I don't think so my friend. There is a backup option, and a restore option. You can only restore database backups created by GoDaddy. The import function you might be referring to is for CSV files, which isn't the same.
well then why did i just do it??

Excellent stuff. Slight note though, your tutorial refers to the YetAnotherForum.NET as a WAP, which isn't the case in 1.93 its just a Website. Previous versions were WAP.
Once again thanks for the contribution, its very much appreciated.
Thanks, I fixed the post. That raises a question... why is it a website instead of a web application? All the "websites" I've worked on in projects are always web applications... this website type of project seems to have less (maybe just different) properties/options.
A Website project is dynamically compiled, allowing users without Visual Studio the ability to make some small changes in the code-behind without recompilation issues. WAP's aren't. I also believe there were a few other small technical issues which escape me at present.
But a large proportion of our user base doesn't have access to VS.

If you already have Exchange 2007 running with OWA access enabled, you're all set. I also have POP3 and IMAP access enabled, but they're not required for ActiveSync.
One thing I didn't expect was that the ActiveSync traffic comes in on the HTTPS protocol. I figured it'd be some new mail port (the way POP3 and IMAP have their own ports) and I'd have to make some new firewall rules. I was pleasantly surprised when I didn't have to modify my firewall settings at all. If you have Exchange OWA configured properly with an SSL certificate, you're good to go.
As with the "Contacts" problem I had in my post, be aware the iPhone will only use Exchange messages, contacts, and calendars once connected ... so you will lose anything local once you hook it up. You'll be warned during the setup process about this and it shouldn't be a problem if you're building them new.
I can't give you many details on performance. I only have 1 iPhone, POP3 access from my BlackBerry, and a handful of OWA users. My Exchange Server and Edge Transport Servers are both virtual machines, and performance has been fantastic since it's never under much load. I'm curious to how many users you'll have configured and what your infrastructure is like.
Hope this helps, good luck!

I had this same issue after messing with my BIS settings in email setup. I had added a filter to my email accounts so i didnt recieve a copy of my sent mail each time i sent out a email to someone. I had also went into my settings and set my emails to be forwarded.
So after i started recieving my emails duplicate i decided that i needed to go in and switch back to my original settings, which was NOT forwarding my emails. So after i went in and changed my settings back everythings back to normal. And i dont recieve copys of the emails i send either. If you need instructions on how to setup a filter to stop your sent emails from coming to your email account you can go on crackberry forums to see setup instructions.

Your backup script and process works great. Thanks! My Hyper-V server is a test and development enviroment thus I also depend on my snapshots. So what do I need to do to include my snapshots in my backup? So that I might reconstruct a virtual machine completely including snapshots.
It's in the post above, but you may have missed it:
Webmin -> System -> Servers -> Postfix Mail Server
The script copies virtual machine hard disk files, which are exact representations of the hard drive up to the point of shut down. So snapshots are unnecesarry, but if you want to include them (or anything else), add what you want copied to VmBackup.bat.
For me, I added this code to every masterpage file in my site. The reason i added it in the AddedControl method was so that i didn't have to use a basepage or parent class that every single aspx file had to inherit. And its the only method that i found to run before the Page_PreInit. Try it! hope it works for you!
protected override void AddedControl(Control control, int index)
{
if (Request.ServerVariables["http_user_agent"].IndexOf("Safari", StringComparison.CurrentCultureIgnoreCase) != -1)
this.Page.ClientTarget = "uplevel";
base.AddedControl(control, index);
}

At first I thought you were kididng, deleting a folder named 'shell' sounds like a terrible idea. I had to look up what you meant by SSMEE (SQL Server Express), which is probably why I don't even have the folders you're referring to. I'll have to take your word on this being a helpful solution.
And although your solution seems suspicious, it may very well be a genuine Microsoft fix, who's MOUSE UTILITY conflicts with it's database management software in such a way that it completely crashes your machine! RIDICULOUS!

I could cross reference my network logs and try to trace the activity, but I don't even think it's worth the effort. I don't think there's much that can be done. I suspect most public websites are constantly under this sort of attack and since he's been 100% unsuccessful in getting past the CAPTCHA, screw it.

thanks for your info
Dude, awesome instructions, I have never seen so many typos in Blackberry's instructions, very nice job... I was hung at
On the 3rd or 4th installation screen you'll see a warning:
"The setup application could not verify the Microsoft Exchange permissions for the Microsoft Windows account. Before you continue, verify that the permissions are correct." That's fine, don't worry about it.
Once I got past this thanks to you, I was great. I spent an hour trying to figure this one out... Thank you
"Activation times out, after about 30 minutes, with "Server is not responding".
Verify the BESAdmin Domain Rights were properly set by going to your BES Server:
Run -> cmd -> cd c:\program files\research in motion\blackberry enterprise server\utility\
IEMSTest.exe
Run the test for both choices against your user. If you see a failure, which I did in my case, then the domain rights weren't properly set. Revisit that step."
Activation is taking some serious time, I think it's gonna time out but I tried the IEMSTest and everything was successfull with my user... I don't know what I could have forgotten >.> does it activate quickly ?
Dude, excellent walkthrough!!!! I have 5 clients running BES and two running BPS and this is so helpful!
Thanks!

i can't register in forum . Server error
Is there any way to limit ports opened for authentication (such as in RADIUS) to authenticate in domain but not use reversible password encryption which is obviously a hole.
I don't know the answer to that but, how big of a hole is reversible password encryption?
Thanks a lot for the solution. According to me this option should be unchecked by default.

Few things have been updated the tv has gotten bigger its now a Mitsubishi 60 inch I have a Blu Ray drive, 4TB Raid 5 array and a tv tuner
I can't register in the YAF Forum neither, dont get shown a server error.. pages just postback's and nothing... :/
I can't register either - is there any way of flagging it to the Yaf admins? I've got lots to contribute back in after using YAF in DNN5 - it's fab :)
OK, I see the problem. The page refreshes and blanks out your password because it isn't complex enough. This is VERY annoying and I'll try and fix it ASAP.
I just tried with a very complex password. Capitol and lower letters, numbers, and 16 digits long.
It still jut comes back to the register page with the password fields blank.
Please tell me how I can complete the registration.
Try a non-alpha-numeric character, like an underscore. The password complexity will be reduced soon.
Yes!!! Yes!!! Thank you.
I've been battling with RemoteApp running on WAN-side machines. Runs fine on LAN, get the 'Terminal Services Gateway computer is temporarily unavailable' error.
Making sure the URL used on the WAN pc and in the Connection Settings 'Server name' matched was the key.
Excelent man. I also had this problem. Not anymore thanks to you!
In my opinion it is a huge hole. Enabling "reversible password encryption" means you are not encrypting the password with a one-way hash so it is essentially the same as clear text.
you MUST also find and replace amp111 in this file:
/var/www/html/maint/modules/home/includes/asteriskInfo_functions.php
otherwise the web GUI WILL BE BROKEN.
this additional step was found on trixbox.org forums
-Luke
Additional comment.
you're better off typing this command:
grep -R "amp111" /var/www/html/
and
grep -R "amp111" /etc/
and editing every file that is listed by changing amp111 to your new password

Hi Matt, I've testing TS Web Access with Server 2008, on and off for a month now. I got to the error msg The remote computer could not be found. I am using NAT for port 80 to the TS Web Access Server which is the same box as the TS. I have got recently one fixed IP in one hand, and my pages are hosted by Earthlink through Namesecure. Could you explain how should I implement steps 1 NAT and 2 CNAME Alias for this to work?
Thanks!! Augusto
Thanks for this posting! I have been testing TS Web Access with Server 2008 on and off for the past month. Internaly is working great, externally I get to the "Remote Computer could not be found" error msg. I am not using Domains and the NAT port 80 is done in the router. I have one static IP and a domain name pointing to Earthlink thru Namesecure. How do implement steps 1 and 2
Hi Augusto,
Port 80 shouldn't be involved, you must use port 443 (HTTPS).
All systems vary, you'll have to contact Earthlink/Namesecure to figure out how to NAT traffic and configure your DNS.
Well I didn't find this first try, but after 2 days of searching I stumbled across this article. It's exactly the same situation as I've been experiencing!
I re-ran sysprep on our base vm install and built a new vm terminal server, though this didn't fix the issue. However I found that running the sysinternals NewSID.exe app did. (after rejoining the domain).
Thanks soo much for the insight, saved me at least a week of pain. Infact I am sure this issue has been the root of some other problems we've been having including giving specific (non-admin) user groups access to the tsmanager.

Nice write up Matt. I agree with much of your review especially how nice the keyboard is to type on and that it'd be even sweeter with a backlit keyboard but no complaints. When SSD drives are at a reasonable prices I'll swap one in for the 5400rpm spinning drive for even better performance and battery life.
My thoughts exactly, but it might be a while before I can get an 80GB SSD at a reasonable price (and that's still only half the space).
Thanks for the wonderful review and photos. How difficult/easy was it to remove all the labels from the wrist area? Specifically the Windows and Intel labels. Thanks
It was a lot harder than I thought it would be! I used a pen-knife and I ended up with some tiny surface scratches, but oh well, the skin covers everything up. The adhesive on the back of those things is ridiculous, it took a couple of minutes to take it all off with nail polish remover.

Happy Birthday!
Happy Birthday and thanks for all of the info. I just bought the 1000he and I'm waiting for my memory upgrade to ship. I really enjoy watching videos from Hulu and Netflix and was wondering if you had any suggestions on how I can watch without the choppiness. Will the 2nd gig of memory make a difference?
I'd use XP, and it didn't have any problem streaming a DVD on a local network, so it must just be the Hulu connection/compression. But it did look better on my desktop, so it was either the resolution, the wired connection, or me being entirely too picky :)
How does Hulu look on your machine now, with 1GB?
Hi Matt, I found this workaround in another forum, tested it and it worked in IE8, XPSP3
______________
If you are unable to see/enable the Terminal Services ACtiveX control in IE7 on XPSP3, as a workaround can you try deleting the following registry keys:
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Ext\Settings\{7390f3d8-0439-4c05-91e3-cf5cb290c3d0}
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Ext\Settings\{4eb89ff4-7f78-4a0f-8b8d-2bf02e94e4b2}
Once you delete these keys, the activeX control should be enabled in IE7 and/or IE8
This was the best how to on Win 2K8 Radius. Better than the how to's on Microsoft's sites.
Good job.
Hey, just wanted to say thanks for the quality review which arguably rivals engadget/gizmodo/cnet. I'm getting ready to buy one of these and your information was very helpful in my decision. This looks like it will be a great upgrade from my original 701 4G. The bigger screen, hard drive, and keyboard made me realize its definitely time for an upgrade.
Thanks Dan, appreciate it!
This is the best fix I've come across this issue.
I have setup an RADIUS server in combination with a SonicWALL firewall the latter provides VPN client software and is unfortunately managed by another company.
I almost got it working. The client authenticate ok, but then the clients do not receive an IP address of the internal DHCP server. I do NOT want to use the DHCP provided by the SonicWALL.
I think I am missing something in my configuration but I do not know what. IP settings are set to "Allow clients to request an IP" but they do not seem to be able to reach the internal DHCP server. Do I have to configure some kind of DHCP relay on the server?
DHCP service is installed on a different server then where the NPS service is installed on. Any hints/help is very appreciated
Hi Erik. I would think some RADIUS clients would allow you to specify a DHCP server, but I checked mine and it does not. It only allows me to specify a range of IP's that will be handed out automatically. You should probably contact your vendor, if they forward all your regular DHCP requests to a server of your choice, I would think they could send these along as well.

No, don't blacklist it. Just leave it whitelisted (meaning any email from this address will always get through) or figure out how to undo this command:

Thanks for the instructions. You'd think GoDaddy would have them. BTW When binding the certificate I got the following error "The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80070020)" I fired up a command prompt and entered NETSTAT -ano to find that the port was in use by another process. Reassigned the port and all is good. Cheers

It says your Postfix service is not running, that looks like the problem.
Good to know, thanks for the tip Allan.
thank you , this was a valuable information.
Great script Matt. Exactly what i was looking for. Had i not found this our only other option would have been to upgrade to backupexec 12.5 and buy the agent for hyper-v. But now with this i just backup the VM files to a share on the backupexec server and then backup that share. Works like a charm.
Thank you very much!!!
Worked great ! Thank you. Would not have figured this one out.
We only only one Iphone but it will only recv and NOPT send. I am using exchange 2007 and owa. ALL of the owa users are OK and the blackberry phones but NOT IPhone. I tried setting up the exchange option but not luck. Same problem can not validate password.
ActiveSync uses a single secure port (https) for all communication, so if you can receive mail then your connection is fine and you should be able to send mail and use your calendar & contacts. If sending mail is the only part that fails, then I would check your Exchange configuration starting with your Send Connectors.
Great script Matt
Great script Matt. Is it possible in the script change the computer name and tcp/ip nic for make a test with the backup VM while original is running too.
Thank you very much !!!!!!
Thanks. If you want to backup while the VMs are running, this script won't do it. You'll have to investigate more about Snapshots and the Diskshadow utility.
Hi Matt, sorry I made a mistake . I need to change computer's name and tcp/ip after made a backup ( no while VMs are running) . I mean that after backup I can't running both , for the duplicate name and duplicate tcp/ip. I know that I can change these setting manually .I was looking for change these setting with a scripit.
Thank you very much again.

They'll be released from the queue after a certain time-period (probably 15 minutes). This is just how the postfix mail server works. I've left the default settings but I would guess you can set the queue time to whatever you like.

Just a stupid question. When you burn disks do you verify right afterwards?
No, I didn't verify every disk. For time's sake, I verified my process and then continued on. So I ripped/burned a handful of single-layer disks, then a handful of dual-layer disks, and validated they worked properly. Then I did the rest, with maybe a few random tests here and there. I'm confident in my process and I think it's safe to say the media is the only variable. All of the Sony disks work. Some of the Memorex disks work, some do not.
I can't say I'm that surprised, I never liked how delicate optical media was. Simply sliding it in and out of certain CASES scratches it to uselessness eventually. Not to mention that sometimes, for no reason at all, it will just become corrupt! It's flat-out unreliable. It can't be trusted to retain data and I've had particularly bad experience with the Memorex brand.
OK, but have you ever verified those Memorex DL DVDs after burning?
Already asked, already answered... ?
Sorry for such scrupulous questions. I like statistics.
If I understood you correctly you did not veryfy ALL you disks. At least you verified SOME of those Memorex right after burning. And after 1 year SOME of those verified initially, stopped reading, right?
How many did you write then and how many are unreadable now (if you've finished checking all your backups)?
Thank you.
So far 4 of 10 Memorex disks fail.

This is extremely helpful. Very informative and helpful to get started with. Just modifed to pull data from the NAS box to a USB HDD so can take everything off-site.
I'm also using BIS with an Exchange server and not only getting duplicate emails delivered to my blkbry, but when I simply open an email in Outlook a THIRD copy of the original is sent to my blkbry.
I'm not using ANY filters or forwarding configurations through ANY provider, Exchange or 3rd party application. I switched to POP3 and it solved the problem but the 20 minute delay to receive email is unacceptable so I switched back to IMAP. I've checked with RIM, AT&T and our IT guy and no one can find a solution.
As much as I love the instrument, I'll think twice about returning to blkbry if this can't be addressed.
Great!

This worked great, thank god I finally found something that works for this. By the way, anyone know how to not allow browsing to the default website but still allow to /ts site?
Also I get a popup asking to connect everytime I open a remote app through the web page. even if I already have one open. How can I set it so it doesn't ask me every time?
Hey Ken, that's odd that you're prompted when you already have a remoteapp running. That doesn't happen to me, but what I've learned so far is that there are 2 things that primarily affect the prompts for credentials.
One, is the client's browser. Check your browser settings and click 'Remember Password' when prompted if that's what you want. If you decide later that you no longer want that, clear all of your browser settings.
Two, is the RemoteApp Deployment Settings TS Gateway Tab (shown above). In there are the settings you may need to fiddle with because you first have to access the Gateway which then passes you on to the RemoteApp server.
Hey I put this on our 2008 server. the problem I have is it runs the shut and start commands, but it does not copy the vhd files. It just stops the servers pauses for a few minutes maybe 5-10 then brings them back up and does not copy the vhd files. Any ideas why it is doing this?
Check the copy lines in the VmBackup.bat file, something is wrong. Check your paths and file names carefully. Maybe it's permissions, when you create your Scheduled Task whichever user you run the script as will need write permission to where ever you are copying the files.
Fantastic article and it got me going nice and quickly. Thank you. I just wish I would have found this before I started and I would have saved myself the step of getting all the Exchange 2007 tools installed :O
I just bought mine also, should get it around 4/16. Trying to soak up any information I can on the 1000HE.

Update.
I'm not getting prompted for a password, I'm getting the prompt that has the check boxes for client drives, printers, etc. every time I open an app.
Ahh, that's configurable in one of the RDP settings tabs. You might have to check 'Remember these Settings' or something from the client to stop being prompted, I'm not sure.
I'm givin a checkbox when I'm using remote apps off my desktop that says don't ask me again for connections to this server, but when I go through the ts web access I don't see that option. Do you know if it's somewhere else?
Not that I know of. I've gotten that prompt from TS Web Access before but most likely I chose 'Remember Settings' or whatever. Clear all your IE settings and you should get the prompt again. Short of that, the last resort would be the default settings in the RDP settings tabs or your local RDP client options.
From what I've read on the web I need to digitally sign my remote apps. Do you know how to do this? I'm using ssl on the website but I don't have anything on the digital signature tab like in your above screenshot.
I forget exactly where you do it, but you just browse to the certificate you installed for IIS. It's in your Server Manager somewhere with your RemoteApp or Gateway server settings.
Same Problem here

Hello, I have setup ts web access as per your post. It works but it's soooo slowww on logging in. It takes at least 1 minute before my app starts. I have a dns record pointing to my router ip then port forward to my internal ts server. The ssl cert i used is *.domain.com could this be causing the slow authentication issues? Logging in through the private address http://servername/ts doesn't have the same effect. Takes approx 15 seconds which is more than adequate. DNS on the ts server points to our internal dns server domain.local. Any help would be great.
Hi Mark,
I have a regular (non-wildcard) certificate and when I FIRST connect it takes longer than expected. I'd say somewhere around 30 seconds. But once I've established the connection and I have a remoteapp running, subsequent apps launch almost instantaneously. I think this is just how it works and has nothing to do with the type of certificate you have.
I just timed it Mark. It takes me 1 minute 5 seconds to connect in the morning, but now throughout the day it'll be much quicker.
Hi Matt, enjoyed reading your blog...I bought my 1000HE
a month ago and think it swell...Q: I installed the upgrade 2gb memory, but didn't know about the Bios check. How do I find out if Windows has recognized my upgrade????
Thanks Dean.
Right-click 'My Computer' and choose 'Properties'. The General tab here in System Properties will tell you how much RAM Windows recognizes.
Hi Matt,
Thanks for your reply. I found a posting on Technet here social.technet.microsoft.com/.../8a608b10-d818-4477-acc0-2770834281dd
This resolution appears to help the speed problem and reduces logon times. I have actively blocked port 3389 on our router and also cleared the bypass for local addresses checkbox. From intially putting in password it now takes 15-20 seconds to start the application. There are also many policies applied to the server prior to the program starting, i think if we can somehow disable these the times will reduce further. The application is concurrent license based so i have had to set our ts server to drop disconnected sessions after a few minutes to free up the license.

Thanks so much.
I like the basic design of the LMF but they do something stupid to it IMLTHO. They put serrations right where a bushcraft knife needs a plain edge the mose for fieldcraft. If you need a length of serrated edge put it on the spine of the knife. That would give you a total plain edge for any and all jobs requiring that and the serrations for cutting cordage or strapping in a convinient place too. That's why I won't be using a Gerber LMF anytime soon. I actually use my knives almost daily and I've only needed a serrated edge once that i can remember. I have a seperate knife with a serrated edge in a quick access sheath on my belt for a "OH CRAP! CUT THE ROPE/SEATBELT!!" knife.
I'm going to try this using "asteriskuser" rather than "root," because of the previous comment, but based on other threads I've read, my guess is it won't work. I'd like to implement Asterisk and put it on the Internet, but until this issue is resolved, I have a good bit of fear about it.
I resolved the issue, when the Google Desktop was closed

and also I would bring a roll of string to latch up things, likes for making a spear, also be used as kindling.
p.s. BAD ASS KNIFE!
I'm going to keep anything that needs batteries out of this little kit, but the flashlight would be great for a larger pack.
Good call on the string, that's the top suggestion I've gotten from a lot of people. I'll add some 550 paracord.
UPDATE: It works :)
Thanks for your comments. I am also going to be buying this netbook and your comments have helped greatly. Love the decals, will be buying those also.
People should check around before using Amazon (even though I am an Amazon lover) because I did find it somewhat cheaper elsewhere. At least until May 15.
Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!
in your 8 stage you're talking about a fix of the Credential Security Service Provider and the error message that followed. I have the same problem when I'm trying to access a VM from scvmm console. can you elaborate on this some more because I can't fix it.
thanks!
Thank you for this, I spent ages reinstalling certificates on IIS7 and could not get Exchange Active sync or any websites to work. Then I saw your bit about bindings... IIS7 is so confusing sometimes!
Well, re-reading what I wrote it seems like that link provided a potential fix but it actually didn't work. So in step 9 I lowered the Remote Desktop Security and that allowed me to connect from an XP machine.
thanks for the quick response but actually I did the same steps you did but it didn't worked for me. I'm still getting the 0x80090304 code.
the issue is when I'm connecting with the administrator of my company it works fine but with my account it's not working
Just came upon your blog, thanks for doing the write-up it was a big help for me. I've been driving myself crazy reading reviews and second guessing myself but I think I will go with the 1000HE now.
Sorry, not sure. Permissions? Security? Hopefully not the SYSPREP thing I described in the beginning where only the domain admin worked...
Have a beginers question.
How exactly do I emplement this in a vb project?
can you explain step by step?
thanks :)
Add that method to the code behind of your page.
could you email me with the instructions of how to set this up as i have o do it for my managers at work. my email is maccormac@hotmail.co.uk
I have gone over everything I can think of but I still get "This computer cant connect to the remote computer because the terminal services gateway server is temporarily unavailble" after trying to launch a remote app from an outside system. Inside it works fine even when forcing all apps to run over the gateway. I have ISA 2006 in our dmz with gateway and ts on our internal network. Any ideas?

removable hardware devices such as an SD card, memory stick or external HDD are unaffected by the OS addressing. if none of the devices work, its certainly not a 64-bit issue, its a Vista issue...ie. no driver support for those devices. I suggest buying devices from mainstream mannufacturers and stay away form the cheap garbage. you pay for what you get ;) I have never had a problem with ANY device on ANY OS , but then again, I don't buy cheap devices. at the time this blog started, your Radeon drivers weren't shipping with Vista x64, you should have researched that before starting the install. and as for your 32 bit messeger gadget, well, its 32 bit, now why would you think it would run on the 64 bit sidebar? x86 and x64 address the memory differently so the vital information needed to run the gadget isn't in the location that the 32 bit gadget expects it to be. rewrite the gadget to look in the right area and it will work, I've been running it with Vista x64 and am now running it with Windows 7 x64.
as for your firewall scheme, ZoneAlarm is crap, has more holes than a wiffle-ball, i know, I tested every area of it and found them all, not to mention the memory leaks that cause massive system instability. don't think you're safe behind that hardware wall, they can be broken faster and easier than a software firewall, just food for thought.
false sense of security doesn't mean you have any actual security. Most haxors/hackers/hoaxers/worms and high-level viruses can very easily punch through a hardware firewall because of the lack of skill and knowledge that those possessing them have, and haven't configured them correctly, or even at all beyond outta the box OEM.
I tried to address most of the issues in this post, but it may be your ISA or other firewall settings. Contact me through www.careercomputing.com if you'd like me to get you up and running.
Can I use this script from a desktop to start and stop remote VMs? It seems I need to run it from the host server to have it work, correct?
I would bet there's a way to modify the script to execute the commands against a different machine, but I really don't know.
Hi Matt, im new in your blog but i liked it.
I made some upgrades to my 1000HE too, i bought mine like a month ago from amazon and did the 2GB OCZ upgrade and also bought a WD 250GB 7200rpm FreeFallSensor. Im an IT pro too, so i like performace, I have Windows7 RC1 installed and i love it!! (The Asus ACPI and SHE works) all the drivers installed except for those two but just use the one in asus download page.
Thanks for the skin review i just ordered it reading your blog.

Hey Matt, Good Stuff Here. I was able to use most of this for a Silverlight class which does the same thing for a xap file. Can't do all the same stuff in SL as it will throw security exceptions trying to get the name of the assembly. But for an example of how to workaround that, I have included here the code that I am using for getting the AssemblyVersion
Public Shared Function AssemblyVersion() As String
Dim assembly As Assembly
Dim strFullName As String
Dim strFullNameElements() As String
Dim strVersionElements() As String
Dim strReturn As String = String.Empty
assembly = System.Reflection.Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly()
strFullName = assembly.FullName()
strFullNameElements = strFullName.Split(",")
If strFullNameElements.Length > 1 Then
strVersionElements = strFullNameElements(1).Split("=")
If strVersionElements.Length > 1 Then
strReturn = "Build: " & strVersionElements(1)
Return strReturn
End Function
Thanks Alan. That'll be nice to have when I try my hand at some SilverLight.
PS - If you're the singer/songwriter I'd appreciate it if you'd print this out, sign it, and mail it to me :)
Thanks a lot for the code. very useful indeed!!
Hey thanks. I was in the same boat and that really helped me out. Now off to writing more viruses :P

Nicely reviewed.. im planning to buy this little cute gadget next month.. thanks for such a wonderful review..
Thank you so much for this post.....I went to about 6 or 7 forums before finding your site.....I was racking my brain trying to figure out why the EdgeSync just stopped working (our GAL was not updating on the Edge since new employees had come on board and I had the Anti-spam feature "Block messages sent to recipients not listed in the GAL" turned on and was wondering why the new employees were not receiving external mail. After digging, I found out the EdgeSync was giving me the "supplied credentials" error. Once I followed your instructions on how to re-subscribe, the EdgeSync began to work perfectly again! Thanks!
Happy to help. I had some similar issues this week and I'm convinced there's nothing more frustrating than figuring out why email isn't getting through!
A way to do this on Windows? Recently my Comcast Modem has been crapping out, and I have to call to have them reset it so I can remote connect back to my PC from work. I've ordered a new modem hoping that will take care of things, but this could help till then.
I've been thinking of making it a Windows utility but I haven't had the time. It's only a matter of converting the shell script to it's batch file equivalent, the tricky part being the WGET command. It'd probably be easier to run a Linux virtual machine on your Windows box. If you haven't done it before, give it a try, it's very cool!
www.pcreview.co.uk/.../Run_Linux_in_Windows
Thanks, I'll definitely check it out when I get home. I wasn't sure if the commands would be similar in windows versus linux, but I'm at work and I've had comcast reset my modem twice today so I can connect, and both times it lasted about 10-15 minutes before I dropped back off. Hopefully the new modem will fix things, but this could come in handy sometime.
Pingback from Subtle Rantings » Blog Archive » My Windows Key Is Stuck!
nice script this will be very helpful in backup automation.
After spending ages researching this problem (but with Windows Server 2008) I tried this one and it worked like a charm.
Thanks for the advice!
It's better to have GetCallingAssembly() instead of GetExecutingAssembly(), cause it raises usability in other classes.
No, that would be a mistake. If you add this class to all of your projects (let's say a winform and a class library) using GetCallingAssembly() and you then request the FileName of your class library, it will actually return the FileName of the EXE instead of the FileName of your DLL.

Updated 2009-06-24
does anyone know? root domain with 2 subdomains and need to auth users from each domain. current firewall has ad integration but the implementation of smb doesnt support subdomains so i cant use that method. is there a way to do this using radius or do the users have to exist in the domain where radius is installed?
But doesn't that defeat the purpose of using chrome? Why not just use a different, and less secure browser?
I wouldn't disable the sandbox security if I had a choice, but I don't think there's any other way. I use FireFox anyway. I have all the major browsers published so I can check if a website renders correctly.
Thanks for the great info on the knives - I've been considering choosing either the SOG or gerber myself, and I really appreciate hearing your first-hand experience with it.
Will you sell the dresser by its self, I can pick up tomarrow? Will you take $50 for it?
Great guide! It worked like a charm. The only step I had to do differently was specific the domain user in Step 3 of adding BESadmin domain rights. So instead of -user besadmin, it had to be -user "domain\besadmin", then IEMSTest.exe started working. Prior to that, I was getting errors relating to not being able to create the search folder (temporary folder).
Thanks again for posting this!
Glad it helped. I guess it worked for me as is, but it's best to specify the domain if in doubt so I updated the post. Thanks for the feedback.
this solution is perfect....
thanks.
If you are seeing:
" fatal: open database /etc/postfix/saslpasswd.db: No such file or directory"
in /var/log/maillog on your trixbox system, you can shortcut around this by simply putting in a bogus username and password in your General Settings / SMTP and then immediately removing it. This will generate the file that postfix seems to care about.
Worked on trixbox 2.6.2.2
Great tip, worked perfectly for me just as described with XP-MCE.

Lenovo's business practices are dead to me.. Never again
Robert Hebrank
Why any company would intentionally limit their own product is beyond me. If there's a real reason for the cap, their (highly) paying customers deserve to know.
I will not be buying any Lenovo items in the future.
This worked fine for me - Now I just need to find a workaround without restarting... (disturbing 50+ users on a TS Server every time we have the problem isnt really desireable!) Thank you!
Hey Matt, it shouldn't happen more than once, unless you continue adding/removing that machine from the domain for some reason.
After being a TightVNC user for a while, I'm planning to try UltraVNC as a remote desktop option for my father's Vista laptop and XP desktop. Although I've had success in using TightVNC with XP-to-XP and Linux-to-XP, it's become challenging in getting it to work on a Vista machine. Then after learning that TightVNC cannot be set as a service, that further complicates the objective of supporting machines of family members who are not technically savvy.
Hey Frankie,
I've had a good experience with UltraVNC, I think you'll like it. I'm on a Windows machine 99% of the time so I generally use Remote Desktop, but UltraVNC is essential at times when I need to access an optical disk remotely. You can't burn a disk remotely with RDP (not sure why), so UltraVNC fills the void.

About 6 years ago, when I was shortly out of college, I bought a 02 Saturn SL-1. Reliable car, and it has been paid off for a while now.
I got married, we now have a baby on the way, and I'm kicking myself for never getting the sports car when I had the chance. My wife doesn't drive, so like you it makes sense for us to have only 1 car...for the next 16 years or so. I'm pretty sure we're going to need a backseat until then.
Grass is always greener.
I would recommend to get a sports car with a backseat like I did. Sure, its not as great for being that super fast balls-to-the-wall fun machine that a pure sports car is, but then I was able to have the car seat in my car all weekend. Good lesson learned, Matt, but I agree with your last comment -- you wouldn't have listened.
Will this work with a Linksys Router?
Sure, as long as the computer running the script can access the modem it doesn't matter what's in-between.

Thanks for the heads up, I got a call too. Nice use of the blogosphere! Okay, that was kinda dorky.
I did want to say, though, that contacting the BBB does no good unless you are a customer.

According to cars.com you can report them to the National DNC if you're on the Do Not Call registry. I did this myself.
My son just got a call from Robert at Longwood Inc. and left same 866 number. Sounds like a scam!
I kept getting failed to match connection policy errors until I set a connection request policy.
The request policy says Do I auth, or proxy it off. Set that rule nice and general, then set up the Network connection policies more granular.
great information I just came a cross a similar problem and this is going to help. I had not thought about doing this way. Thanks
Thanks Earl, I'm glad you found it helpful. I've been running this setup for a few weeks now and it's working out just fine.
I just received the exact message. I have been receiving calls froman unknown number and when I answered no one would reply. Thit time I didn't answer and received the exact same message you have posted. the 1st thing I did was search online and found a ton of info saying this was a scam..Oh, the only place my ad was listed on was craigs list.
Wow... this scam is so obvious it's actually rather funny. Same thing happened to me...
I put my car on craiglist and guess what? I start getting a call everyday from an unavailable number, and when I answered no one was on the other end. Today I didn't answer and got the aparently infamous "Brad from Longwood Inc." message! UnFreakingBelievable!
I also noticed that Longwood Inc even has a web site out there.
I decided to call but is totaly a scam thanx for the heads up
Hello Matt,
Thank you for posting this valuable posting. Could you please provide the caching logic too. I am new to this concept but need to know how the caching logic is implemented here.
Great thanks,
Hi James, the example is a little bit misleading. There's more to implementing caching than adding a little bit of logic to the constructor.
You first want to declare some kind of key/value data structure (hashtable, dictionary, etc) as a private member. Since a singleton is never destroyed during the life of the application, this data structure is your cache and will always be in memory.
Then whenever data is requested from the singleton, check the cache first. If it doesn't exist, then go out to the datasource and get it, add it to the cache so it's there next time, and return it.
I got a call from Robert from Longwood Inc.
My car is listed on AutoTrader.
Glad I found this. Now I know for sure it is BS.
Thx
Great, perfect for me! thanks
Dude your rock! great instructions, you made my day.

hi i jst want to know that how i can do MAC Filtering on Radius server 2008
It might be too late but I *highly* recommend SubVersion and VisualSVN. (AnkhSVN will work if you don't want to shell out the $50 for VisualSVN; SVN is free). I have had nothing but trouble from VSS and SVN works much better if you're in any kind of a team environment.
You're way too late Bryant, I wish you would have commented sooner :)
I've struggled with SourceSafe for far too long now and I really wish I'd never used it in the first place. Connecting to it is unreliable if I undock my machine and I've actually lost data. I feel like I never know what it's doing... I hate it.
But as I'm the only one using it on my home network I've tolerated it, and I have an automated backup system in case SourceSafe fails (which it has). I use TortoiseSVN for an open-source project I'm involved in and it's great except it doesn't integrate with Visual Studio.
Maybe I'll give VisualSVN a try, thanks for the recommendation. However, I think I'm almost at my breaking point with the frustrations of Microsoft and I might be making the switch to a complete Linux environment soon.
Aaah! You don't need to go that far :)
BTW, VisualSVN has a server product and a separate Visual Studio add-in but you don't need both. I am currently using the VS add-in only but we're planning to switch to the server product at the office. I also use VisualSVN with Google Code hosting and it works really well.
Thank you. This was very helpful to get me going without research. I appreciate your time.
I posted a truck on Craigslist. I too, have received numerous calls with no response and they were also unavailable numbers and one voice mail from a Brad at Longwood, Inc. Thanx for the info...
I posted my ad on kijiji and received not one but two calls from pleasant sounding Brad at Longwood Inc..Thought this was scam goolged it and what do you know it is!!! Thanx
Wow this place looks awesome! Can't wait to come check it out... I was thinking after fall semester we either do a weekend in NYC or AC. Whattya think??

Good article. I've been using Godaddy's premium email service for a few years now and it's been OK up until about ~August 2009.
I now get a no socket error when sending emails. This just started happening maybe July until now.
I can't send from any of my 4 machines through Outlook Express- but I can send mail through their webmail which is cumbersome to say the least.
If anyone knows of a comparable service that DOES NOT automatically filter mail, does not have these SMTP problems, please bump up this thread and speak up!!!!!!
Just got my third call from "Brad" this morning asking for me to call him back at 866 326 0949 as his company could help me sell my vehicle I have advertised on Kijiji for a small fee. A pleasant sounding fellow, glad I didn't get sucked into this scam. Hope everyone else do thier homework before they take a chance on this bogus business ......
I have to say, i received the same call today from Brad, which is a recording. I have yet to see any complaints from anyone who used them, didn't sell thier vehicle and didnt get their money back. i too am thinking about using them and am doing alot of research of complaints but yet to see anything from anyone using this company. does anyone have any links or reports from someone who used them and got ripped off? And no I am not brad or april or Linas which is who i talked to today. i am a mortgage broker in nampa idaho wanting to sell my harley.
What was your experience using recaptcha with godaddy? I have a site that goes down a few times a day at utterly random times for maybe 30 seconds to a couple of minutes without letting me grab any damn exceptions in code. Is this the experience you had ?
My experience using ReCAPTCHA with GoDaddy hosting was a failure, it doesn't work. I think I wrote a post about it... yep here it is:
www.bunkerhollow.com/.../recaptcha-won-t-work-on-godaddy-sites.aspx
I received the same call from "Brad" today. My vehicle is on Kijiji and AutoTrader. I did the same thing when I got the call, I looked it up to see what the company is all about. Even though I haven't seen anything good written about them, I still thought I would call and ask for myself. I spoke with a very nice women. I told her I haven't seen anything good written about them, she said that everything I am reading is from people who haven't even tried to use them. Which is true, half of you didn't even try to call the number and get information. She said that you can get information from BBB.org about the fact that they are not a scam. I told her I wanted to talk it over with my husband, she gave me her direct line to call so I could speak to her again instead of someone new. I think people should find things out for themselves instead of believing everything you read from people you don't know. You be the judge after you have asked the questions your self. I'm not going to say yet if this company is a scam or not. I will ask all the questions I can think of and look at more then just one or two sites before I decide. Good luck to the rest of you!
Brad called me this morning, thanks for the heads up, almost called him. But did not after reading your BLOG
NICE!!!!!!!!
I got a linux virtual host and installed a mail server to get my email. It's a bit work to setup, but works great.
This is really something,I too got a call from Robert @ a 866 # and he was very polite and said my car posted on craigslist would sell in second and he can help me. Now I took a chance on posting the car because I need the money to help ageing parents. The car is a collectable and is worth something but the buyers for this type of car are few. Now when I bought I had to do alot of looking around to find one in this kind of shape. Anyway thanks to all you people this is a big help.When I tried to call back I got AIG Healthcare
i have the exact same voice mail like identical. from two days ago
I got two calls today one being a recording. I also did allot of work and put out ads and posted it in Craigslist,infomall, and kijiji. If I want anyone to help me I would do so myself. personally don't trust people or companies like this.
This really has been a hot topic, thanks for all of your feedback. I'm closing comments before this thread gets too long, but I'd still like to hear your experiences so please post them to this forum that I've created for the subject:

Great post - I own a Eee 1000HE as well as these steps are right on the mark. Thanks for sharing the experience.
You can also install chrome from the Google pack. http://pack.google.com. That will install Chrome in the program files dir. Then add the argument directly on the published application in TS.
came across your post after receiving the call from brad!
anyway, noticed you've upgraded your eeepc to w7. was thinking about doing the same, so would appreciate your input as to whether it was worth it.
Pros and cons. On a netbook you'll probably just be surfing the web and maybe watching Hulu. Either is fine for web browsing but XP will give you slightly better performance if your netbook struggles with flash video.
Other than that installation was easy so that's not an issue. 7 just has the translucent windows and an improved start menu, nothing major. If you already have a copy, I'd say yeah install it and you'll be happy. But if you don't own a copy and you just need to scratch that "I want something new and different itch", loading Ubuntu or Fedora would probably be a lot more satisfying, and a lot more free ;)
use a different PIN and next time save the CAL info
Yes! thank you. Top points for an easy solution without mentioning VBScript! :)
I installed G.Skill Falcon 128G on my desktop with AHCI with no error. And windows 7 failed to detect SSD as well. As I know, currently there are no SSD can be detected by windows 7 at the moment, because all of them are not certified by windows 7 yet. And Microsoft haven't release the documentation of how to certify as well based on the words from my friend who works for OCZ. What we can do is just wait windows 7 release and then G.Skill release support firmware for windows 7. Possibly, it may never happens because of need of hardware change.
In that case it sounds like it's the responsibility of G.Skill and the other manufacturer's to provide a firmware update for "certifying" Windows 7 compatibility since the version of Windows 7 has been released as RTM.
I haven't seen anything on GSkill's site yet.
Excelente, muchas gracias.
This works to make the main static menu centered, but my drop-down dynamic menus still show up on the left! Any hints?
The menu control has about a million properties, some of which differentiate the CSS styles for static and dynamic menu items. Try specifying the same style in a class specific to your dynamic items.

Dude! TX!! just saved my skin!
I'm setting up another one of these tomorrow and this looks like a perfect checklist, much more complete then most of the other guides I've used in the past. THANKS!
Didn't work for me I tried everything
Just installing the Falcon in my T61p... Yup, I got that same boottime error message:
Error
2100: HDD0 Initialization Error (1)
Press <ESC> to continue
Pulled a lot of hair out, trying to get it to work using various different partition schemes, until I just happened to have to leave the room after I had powered it off and on again, and came back to see windows continuing the install... this happened under a partition scheme I didn't really want to leave in place, so I started again, and like you I noted it will give this complaint on a reboot during the install, and the remedy is to simply shut-er-down and restart.
Frustrating to say the least.
Searching to see if others have had the same experience I spotted your posting... now I'm worried about BSOD because I have the drive set to AHCI in BIOS...
Oh, and an "easier" way to check the firmware is to just look under the hardware properties:
right-click on the drive, choose properties, then choose the "hardware" tab. Select the hard drive and again select properties on that page. Select the details page on the window that pops up, and then under the property drop-down menu choose "Hardware Ids" The firmware number should be shown after the name of the drive.
Heh heh... my score is almost identical, except my graphics hit 5.1... this is off a clean install of 64 bit Win 7 RC. with only the important updates installed, no lenovo drivers yet.
Hey Eric, thanks for sharing. I always like hearing I'm not the only one with problems :)
I'll tell you what though, overall I'm kind of disappointed by the whole experience. The G.Skill support and documentation is terrible...
www.gskill.us/.../Falcon%20firmware%20update%20instructions.pdf
Somewhere between step 4 & 5 I was screaming WTF! Luckily I figured out how to determine I was already up to date (although your way sounds a lot easier, thanks for the tip).
The forum is missing all the important information people want to know... like question number 1, why doesn't Windows 7 recognize my disk and disable Defrag?
The only helpful information is from a guy in Tampa who actually knew what he was talking about and posted all the OS optimization tweaks. But after implementing them all, I realized that kind of sucks! After turning off Windows search indexing you won't be able to tap the Windows key, type 'excel' and hit enter. Which might be the only legitimate reason for upgrading from Windows XP :P
All-in-all I'm just flat out uneasy about the SSD+Win7 setup. Too much uncharted territory. AHCI, TRIM, WIPER and no good explanations. I've also had explorer crash on me and sometimes certain programs will run and others won't. With the SSD I can't tell if it's that or Win7 RTM since I never had issues like this with a regular harddrive and Win7 RC. I thought I wanted to be bleeding edge but I'm throwing in the towel.
I'm going to post my SSD for sale when I get some free time.
PS - Don't listen to me if I'm killing your fun with your new toy! Maybe you'll have better luck and you can convince me that it really is as great as I thought it would be.
Well, I took some of those "optimizations" for granted. Most of them seem not be there to optimize performance, but have more to do with minimizing writes, which indirectly affects performance as, in the long run, you don't need to trim or wipe as often... much like if you don't write to a HDD you don't need to defrag. To me, that is a little overkill. So I did what I usually do, which is I set up a separate partition for temp files, cache, etc, but not worry about needing a seperate drive. You like Search? Then by all means don't disable it! (but you can probably nuke indexing). In looking through some of those optimizations, I did note that some seem to be in place in Win 7 RC, like boot defrag was not enabled on my machine...
I also noted the issues with this system, the T61p and sata150/300, but, you know what, in running this database program I'm developing for a client, there is a noticeable impact on the load times of some of the large databases... which is exactly what I'm looking for... I stopped benchmarking my system a LONG time ago (well, except for the cheesy little windows index thing) because that is a path to misery.
The problem with bleeding edge technology is that it will always leave you bleeding...
Thanks for the tips. Very helpful.
I brought funiture from Bobs in 2007. very nice living room set. I got the elite portection 5 year program. now it's 2 years later and the ottoman is coming apart at the seam. And Bob's nor the protection plan will fix it. I got to say Bobs did come out and fix the sagging chaise and it seems to be okay now but I still have the falling apart ottoman. Mind you this is not funiture that gets used a whole lot. So imagine my disappointment.
Why did they fix the chaise and not the ottoman?
How can we refer to application pages from the code?
Updated 10-13-2009.
Amazing.... it worked!!! Fixed my BSOD!!
asus eeepc 1005ha running Win 7 RTM-> booted into bios settings and changed from SATA to IDE
Brilliant! Thanks :) I was looking for a way to start a java app with command line arguments:
run.bat
start javaw -Xmx512M my.jar
works a treat! :)
Hmmm still no BSOD on my T61p set to AHCI with the Falcon.
The one difference would seem to be your use of the docking station, does the docking station have eSATA ports on it or something?
No love with my FxRuby scripts unfortunately... probably because it wants to kick out some warning messages to the console.

for the last couple of months I have lost internet connection with comcast at least 10 times always in the evening and always when I am on "smart"zone webmail. I really cannot stand these people and they eventually will not even give a credit on your bill. this evening I could not pay my bills online. will they pay the late fees?
I purchased furniture for my 4 year old son from Bob's. I regret the day I walked into the store. You get what you pay for. I did not want to spend $2000.00 on furniture at the time and went with Bob's. Low price, low quality, poor service, extremely poor customer service. Don't buy from Bob's or be prepared to be disappointed. If it looks too good to be true. It is
Well, what happened?
Really this is awesome.I love that bed very much.Thanks for sharing this beautiful design photos with us.keep blogging.
I rarely post, but I wanted to say thanks for sharing this information. Understanding the net better and better.
Does this disable Outlook Web Access for all users or just the users that are using BPS?
OWA is independent of any BlackBerry software. You don't need to disable OWA if you don't want to.
Does the BESAdmin domain user always have to be logged in on the virtual machine. The reason I am asking because we have other profiles using this machine.
No, definitely not.
only half my fn keys are working. most strange.
Hey Matt,
Keep us updated on how development in Windows 7 goes. I might upgrade but I'd like to see how many kinks there are to deal with first!
It was painless. Besides this, I only had the following 3 issues with certain solutions but I don't think they apply to CPAS:
1. Register dsofile.dll.
2. Needed Office 2003 even though 2007 was already installed.
3. Needed to install the old ASP.NET AJAX Extensions 1.0:

This Works other way round, You will ONLY hit Begin block when column exists, otherwise you need to add NOT statement in front of Exist.
Glad to see that worked!
Me too, thanks for the tip!
Unfortunately the solution is not working for me :(
Any idea why it doesn't works for all scenarios?
There is an easier way to redirect a web root address request. Godaddy.com provides domain forwarding. You configure it to forward example.com to www.example.com without masking and it behaves just like the steps you have above, without needing to set up a free hosting plan and uploading the redirector html.
Well, so much for the much lauded Windows 7 quality.
This fix helped even in Windows application (not website) project (solution). Thanks
I found that I only need to delete the values under these keys & not the keys themselves to resolve the problem.
GSkill has released a firmware update, that supports TRIM, etc.
the solution you posted in your article, works for me.

wow your <a href="www.autopartsdeal.com/.../parts.html">nissan parts</a> was great.. my sister was looking for that car... sadly, it was sold already.. may i ask if you have still some sites that have same offered? thanks in advance...
See the DL585 G1 Main & Service Manul at
bizsupport2.austin.hp.com/.../c00210164.pdf
Has the battery info and other details. Very handy when rebuilding an old box like the G1.
I have also installed Windows 2008 R2 on a DL585 G1 using a 6402 contoller in place of the 5i because I could not get the 5i to show up.
Did you install the 5i driver during the OS install, or later after the OS was up and running?
On the HP driver page, did you use the "Microsoft Windows Server 2008 x64" driver?
Yep, I installed the Server 2008 x64 5i driver during the OS installation.
That link doesn't seem to work but thanks for the info. I knew the info had to be out there somewhere, I just couldn't find it.
Thanks, it helped me. It's mostly because the program wasn't installed using the "run as administrator" command. It's the same thing with 7-zip, it can't set file associations unless you run it as administrator.
you are kidding... Took me an hour to look for an answer. Thanks bug
I just bought a OCZ Vertex SSD drive, and the drive which does 250MB/s reads and 180MB/s writes is capped at around 130MB/s.
This is just not acceptable.
If lenovo does not properly address this issue, it will lose my business.
I had VPC 2007 installed when I installed XP Mode.
Something barfed and I uninstalled VPC.
I noticed the Start menu had (empty) under Virtual PC, so I tried removing and re-installing XP Mode but nothing helps.
Do I have to reinstall Win7?
Lenovo.. if you are reading this. WHY?!? WHYYYYY????!??!!!?
Any updates?
It works perfectly, thanks man.
Sounds like Lenovo has vested interest in the Notebookreview.com site.
it still not working... i can't find the registry... but i did the reset thing and it's still not the solution...where can i find further help!!! plss... i need this for my job..
Your kit is pretty good but if you are looking for suggestions I would put a replacement slingshot band in there for making a small game weapon or a hawian sling spear. Also a frog gig could be benificial to have to spear fish or even small animals. I would get an emergency bivy instead of a space blanket cuz spance blankets are practically worthless. Also the brass snare wire is not good. I would get braided wire leaders made by south bend and make them into small game snares, or braided picture frame wire because it is very strong.
I've been running Virtual PC 2007 on Windows 7 x64 with no issues for six months now.
I work on CGI Perl, Mysql hosting on Godaddy. Godaddy doesn't support any external modules to be added in the CGI Script.
Godaddy help center poor and not good.
I was just thinking about Reset (Re-Subscribe) Edge Transport Server and you have really helped out. Thanks!
I purchased a wildcard certificate for IIS7 from GoDaddy and it installed with no problem. I added the https bindings to the certificate purchased for the first subdomain desired.
For this first subdomain to which I added bindings I get the error that the "domain name does not match the domain name specified by the certificate".
Also ... do I repeat this https binding process for each of the subdomains for the certificate that I am hosting?
Or did I miss something?
Thank you, this helped, is there a way you can write a step by step like this for hmail to work with dyndns?
Has anyone yet experience with the new firmware for the G.Skill Falcon on Thinkpad?
I'm considering to replace an old HDD with a Falcon 256 GB. But it still sounds risky to me. So, thanks for any advice...
plz send me configuration of RDIUS Server
Michael,
I also used the Google pack to get chrome installed to program files and publish it. Way better solution that bat file work around.
That site has great ideas and very resourceful in terms of furniture inventions. it could save more space in your house.I love
this! It's the perfect mix of modern and natural - the rich stone hues meeting the clear glass to work so well with all kinds of
style. I like to mix and match my furniture and decor, and this look will work seamlessly with my matched, mismatched style.

I recently went Bob's to look for furniture. I saw that exact couch, the Vice Versa sectional. Thinking of putting it in my basement for home theater, mainly because I need individual pieces in order to fit them down the basement stairs. An entire couch won't fit down the stairs.
I see you published this back in August. How is the couch holding up? Still as comfortable as you originally thought? Would you get it again?
I sat on it in the store, it seemed comfortable. My only concern was if you lay down on it, the seem where the individual couch pieces meet seemed stiff. But maybe it just needs breaking in.
Ok, just wanted to know your opinion of that couch after you having it for a few months. Thanks!
-Sean
Hey Sean. It's still holding up fine, and I'm still happy with it. The only thing that bothers me is that the pieces shift around a bit on our wooden floor. I've already added some rubber feet to each piece, which solved the problem, but now that time has passed and they're getting dusty the pieces are sliding around again. I'm trying to come up with a permanent fix, but other than that I'm still happy with them.

Hi the first example looks very good and really useful.
Could you give me an example, similar to the first one which looks at a join of two tables and updates one table based on information from another table. (Obviously remaining in a loop)
Cheers :)
Thanks Matt, I've managed to work the first example with a multi join updated.
Very useful blog.
Keep blogging things like this! I hope to copy your system soon if I can ever find the perfect house, and i know you have been through a lot of troubleshooting to make your system perfect.
The most useful information on the subject I've found across the web. Thank you for you hard work! My self-hosted website shows up on my GoDaddy domain through DynDNS now!
Is this post still valid? I've working a few hours now trying try to get my trixbox to register with teliax and having no luck.
Yeah this post is a little old. I just setup a new Trixbox machine and the new IAX2 settings they've posted on their support site work. I've updated the post with the link at the top.
Thanks for responding, my issue was because for some reason my trixbox machine lost its DNS server addresses. I'm now registering just fine with teliax. I can make outbound calls, but am still struggling with inbound calls. (Using the config settings from teliax site)
You are AWESOME! Thank you for this info. Probably saved my job. lol
I'm happy it helped, thanks for the comment!
wouldn't that message disappear if you disabled windows user access control?
Good point, it probably would. But then what would I have to write about?
I've tried every solution offered up by Microsoft and anyone and everyone and it's still not working on XP SP3 with IE8... It's at the point of ridiculous, I should frigging send a bill to the useless gits at Microsoft who are went so overboard with security that they've made everything else not work. This is the one issue I just have no words for because all I'd be doing is swearing like a sailor non stock for an hour.
Quite simply you should reset your browser to default settings make sure you have run once iexplorer sorted before attempt to enable the TS controls, if they dont appear then delete browser history aswell go to the TS website you will be prompted to install the control from the top bar install the control restart the browser and off you go, most problems occur because of browser history and incorrect settings for inhanced security for iexplorer.
Hope this helps TS Wizz Guru
haha. great point. keep up the good work though!
make sure to buy your return tickets in advance! :P
Wow, wtf. I just picked up a nice new SSD and was wondering why my performance was worse than a $500 laptop with the same drive.
there's free software out there called DisplayFusion that can help you manage your multiple monitor wallpaper. I've used it before.
Ack. I'm in the same spot, just about to figure out how to get at the CheckBox control for each item. I wish you had posted some kind of resolution.
Thanks for the comment Allan. I posted some sample code, hope it helps.
This was very helpful! Several addresses want you to download software etc. this suggestion was the BEST!
This also works on a 2008 Terminal Server! Interestingly, if I restore the keys (backed up before deletion) it's still fast!?
This also fixes logins hanging at the 'Preparing your Desktop' for ages!!
This reg hack is about the greatest in existence!! :D
Ah, after restoring the keys again it's still slow for users logging in for the first time (ie; not users with a 'clean' profile & reg entry on the local system), so ignore that little oddity :)
Did you try going to the app store and doing update all before you started removing them? There were a few updates that required new app code. I'm really surprised that they didn't update your iphone code before you left the apple store.
Oh, I didn't see Update All. I'll try that next time. I wish I hadn't updated, I can't jail break it now.
Thank you. Very helpful in many ways. Cheers.
My bios settings got reset to default and when I started getting BSOD at start up I didn't put two and two together. After switching back to compatibility mode, it's starting fine again. Thanks so much, it saved me a reinstall of windows!
It would be nice if MS put a note on the BSOD suggesting what to try!
