    Last month I got into hosting my website from my house via Windows Server 2008. I have installed PHP, MySQL, and phpMyAdmin. The only thing left for me to do is get one problem solved and that is that my ISP blocks port 80 so I have to use a different port.

    Hello All, I am having a problem when adding a target portal with MS iSCSI initiator. After I enter all of the portal information I click OK and I get the following error: The displayData.name field cannot be null. The portal is listed under the Discovery Tab, but I cannot see any targets. I have an identical server running and I have no issues connecting to our SAN at all. Has anyone else had this problem? I'm at my wits end with this one. Thanks in advance, John

This is already the third iteration of this software which debuted in Microsoft Windows Millennium Edition. The same version was shipped with Windows XP but this software didn’t get enough positive notes to have mass usage because it lacked so many features even the basic DVD burning or playing various multimedia disc formats outside the proprietary realms. The second generation Movie Maker was far better when it added DVD output and a number of editing improvements. I didn’t really [...]Post from: Windows Vista Weblog More...
