My understanding of Link Aggregation is not that 4 NICs in a LAGG = 4 x the bandwidth. A single connection cannot use it all at once. However 4 connections can all achive max throughput of a single NIC. How does this work with iSCSI? I'm assuming it doesnt take advantage of the LAGG.

TL;DR: WTF are pins 4,5 and 7,8 used for? Which is TX and which is RX? So I'm working towards CCNA. Just started a study book and the first few chapters are pretty basic review stuff from college. Anyway its said pins 1,2 on your PC (and routers, etc... for that matter) is for...

Reading up in the news section someone mentioned folding. Then I remembered I installed F@H on some servers down in the DC a year and a half ago for some stress tests for some labs. I forgot all about them. I've been chugging out a quarter million points per month for quite a long time. I...

So I have a gigabit switch with 3 ports in the same VLAN. Port 1 goes back to the Verizon ONT. Ports 2 and 3 goto pfsenses' WANs. Each WAN assigned a static IP from the ISP. When I transfer data through the pfsenses I'm not getting gigabit speed as I'd expect. This is pretty odd.

Hey guys, been awhile since I've posted. Can you guys share your password policies? Age/complexity requirements? Different settings for different departments/groups, especially those departments/groups that handle sensitive customer and employee information? Thanks!

For some reason our users' passwords have been expiring i the middle of the day which causes widespread "panic". I will concede it is annoying when some of our apps that require LDAP no longer allows a user to authenticate. So how can i get the passwords to expire overnight so that a...

Our secretary today told me that the Verizon rep she's been talking to for weeks has suddenly been getting bounce backs from our exchange server. In the bounceback it mentions the spam filter. This only happens when he sends email from his iphone to our secretary. It doesn't happen when he...

So I have a 3rd party apps that sends reports using our exchange server. For some reason the reports only get attached maybe 60% of the time. I put in a ticket with the vendor and they're telling me that I need to adjust settings on Exchange, but of course cant tell me which. I'm highly...

I have a couple Web Apps out there that use LDAP to authenticate. They all require a user a user for access to active directory. I'm just wondering what the best practices are for that user? Whats the bare minimum as far as rights that I can give to this user?

I have two remote users that are contracted by a customer. They strictly use the owa or their mobile devices to acces email and NEVER log into one of our own domain pcs, thus they never get a prompt to change their passwords. I'm certainly not going to set their passwords to never expire. Do...

Lets say... strictly for lab/testing purposes I were to install a 2nd Exchange Server (2007) into my organization. Can I simply uninstall the first one and the 2nd one will just take over? Obviously assuming I configure after installation in the same way the first one is setup? Is the process...
