    Windows 9?

    All OS versions you say "sucked ass" were all released with major changes compared to the the previous version: 95 VS 3.11 - multiple GUI changes. You did forget the NT part in the history as well. MS first 32-bit OS and the fact that Windows XP was actually a NT successor with Windows...

    How does a NAT VPS work?

    I did the exact same thing when I tried a VmWare failover solution where the dedi only had (and needed) one Ipv4. A small debian in front with iptables (for internet access to some applications) and a ipsec tunnel to/from the production site. Thanks for clarifying. I was unclear in my first...

    How does a NAT VPS work?

    If you are setting them up yourself on a dedi you need some sort of router in front of the VPS (plural) that will route the assigned porta to the correct VPS. Think of it like your home and your Internet connection there. Many devices share one Internet accessible IP. Is there anything...

    [Topic Split] Budget Services

    Importance of a SLA

    If a company writes a "proper" SLA they can basicly turn off your VPS for a whole month without paying a cent. It's like any other legal mumbo-jumbo document that only laywers would understand. I've asked for SLA credit a few times when I was working with the server and it goes dark on me...

    Windows System Administrator

    There is no crash course. You need to pick an application/system and start there. The Microsoft way of counting licenses and the amount the charge per license is ridicolous. Two of my customers have been contacted by Microsoft to "assist" in keeping track of the licenses for MS products...

    Windows System Administrator

    Same way for me but the other way around. :) Guess it all boils down to experience, somethkng you can only get by working with it. I've worked with many applications and systems over the years, even Cobol software (today actually). Funny thing is, people I meet always excpect me to know...

    Windows System Administrator

    With the possibility to run without a GUI this is the "only" option. I would like both options, if you only are doing something one time I find it easier to do it with a GUI then to code something up with Powershell. Posershell is an improvment compared with old school DOS "programming"...

    Windows System Administrator

    Folder redirection is usefull in terms that you have a powerful computer but it is in a way considered a "dumb terminal" since all important data is stored elsewhere even if it looks like it is local to the user. Been working as a Windows System Admin for 10-12 years before I decided to try...

    OneDrive client for Linux

    Friend of mine who has a Office365 subscription (5 units) received 1TB onedrive space yesterday. I'm sure there are some restrictons but 1TB should be enough for everyone.

    Which is safer? Using a VPN specific service or a VPS to tunnel traffic?

    VPN service is "easy". No need to worry about updates and other things. There are more things to do with a VPS. Use it as storage for files that you need for easy access..... Its all about what you want with it.

    Need some more MySQL magic.

    I read this on my phone so I can have misread the mysql syntax. When having a COUNT(*) it aggregates (is this the correct word?) all the results. Remove it and you should get all the results that you want, except the number of records.

    I doubt you are old enough to call me son, if you comment where you please, others do the same.

    LET forgot password (or create new user) doesn't work

    If there are other types of posts about Colocrossing you have to tolerate these kind of posts as well.
