    Windows 2003 R2 question (dfs sync)

    I'm digging through the whitepapers now but haven't come across the synching yet. I may step up to R2 on our backup server since there's an inherant interoperability flaw between certain flavors of Samba and 2003 Server.

    BF2: Armored Fury

    I bought SF and went on an Apache whoring frenzy and loved it. I then bought EuroForces and it won't even let me play it. It says i still need to download it even though it shows as downloaded in my EA loader. I gave up on it, and find myself playing vanilla BF2 now. Th egame has only given me...

    VNC Alternatives. Need better encryption

    Hi gang, looking for something to replace our current WinVNC installs on client machines. We're getting drilled on our security audits for "weak password encryption". We have around 200 machines. Would PC Anywhere be the best bet? RAdmin? We'll be starting from scratch but the MAIN concern...

    PIX vs ASA feature question

    I have heard the exact same thing from our Cisco reps. Of course, they make more money having us upgrade to ASA, so I'm not sure what to make of it :D
