Under admin tools open: FIREWALL WITH ADVANCED SECURITY. From there your can add a program (executable). In this case SQL.exe and any other program related to your comunication. Anyway, I don't think this will improve perfomances, unlucky, as said before, I think the problem is a function or a component which manages the connection...

Hi, First of all: pay attention Second: pay more attention I used WS4 for a period of time... and these are (for me) the most important consideration: 1) WS4 works quite well, IF and only IF your index is up to date, you can find quite everything. 2) WS4 doesn't work well, the main problem is the update of the index: when you do it, is time AND PERFOMANCE consuming. The point is that you COULD use cached indexes, but... they are sooo sloooow. You can search your file manually which is better :) Anyway, I used WS4 on a file server (NTFS) which had more than 100'000 files, but it was running on a storage system which was really perfomant. Returning to your question... You should follow these steps: 1) Create the index on your server. 2) select a GROUP of users (not more than 10), and start the deploy of WS4 3) start perfomance monitor (logging mode) not every second... and run it for a week. 4) check what happened on your server, if there's no impact on perfomances, continue with the deploy (but still with maximum 10 users). Everything depends on HOW MANY files do you have and the I/O of yours Hard drives. Here's a (useful?) link: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc772446(WS.10).aspx It's quite short so... read it carefully. Regarding your last question: I think that the only way is to add the desired path to the index service...

So, now the drive is formatted... and you can use it on a DESKTOP pc, but still nothing on your server... right?

Hi and welcome! Enjoy your stay...

I think you should change the icon on the client side... otherwise the color will be the same...

The point with the firewall is simple: If the port is opened, the communication occurs. If the EXECUTABLE is not excluded, the comunication is permitted, BUT the connection is still monitored. Which is ok, but this may slow down the communication...

Try to uninstall the samsung application, it should remove drivers too. Then, the scanner, should be detected and installed only via WIA drivers... I think...

hi, As said in another post... From 2003 to 2008 many functions are changed, and to maintain backward compatibility, Windows slows down the processing of some function. (Actually it's more complicated but I can't find a better way to explain this). Anyway, check your firewall (already done it?!) and, if you can, DISABLE IPv6. There are two links that I read so far: http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&cd=1&ved=0CBgQFjAA&url=http%3A%2F%2Fdownload.microsoft.com%2Fdownload%2F9%2Fc%2F5%2F9c5b2167-8017-4bae-9fde-d599bac8184a%2FPerf-tun-srv.docx&ei=D15nTsW_FfTR4QTFqKntDA&usg=AFQjCNGdtufM5zlakRrWIW1XK-I_Qbvd2Q And then: http://blogs.microsoft.co.il/blogs/shair/archive/2008/03/13/how-to-improve-iis-performance.aspx Hope this help...

Welcome! I think you could put your blog on your signature :)... well it isn't for commercial purpose... so why not? I would like to check your blog! Enjoy your stay!

Yes but... You should think at the backup... skydrive is already backedup. You should think at the bandwidth... skydrive is hosted on Microsoft's servers so this is not your problem :). You should think at availability... skydrive (should) be more available than a "home made" server, just because it's clustered. You should think at disponibility... skydrive can be used everywhere (also on Windows Phone 7 phones). Your idea works, but pay attention at the points written above :)

There's really nothing more you can do... I suggest you to ask directly to the Dell's forum... I had this problem one time and I never found a solution!

Thanks :)

Hi, Unlucky this problem has been experienced by many people (as you've said). The only thing I can suggest you is to download the driver for the CONTROLLER (RAID)... otherwise, I have no other solution... sorry.

well usually yes... but everything depends on if your DC is a DNS server too... but usually yes.

From what I know no... The problem is inside the hypervisor, you can just have 1 hypervisor (in this case VMWARE).

Of course you can... but not with that settings! As the message says: Actually both IP are yours EXTERNALS DNS which don't know ANYTHING about the other domain. Set the clients DNS servers with IPs of your DNS (internal - DC), you will notice that you can join your domain now :)

SET THE DESTINATION PORT TO 27015. Each client tries to OPEN CONNECTION ON PORT 27015 (because your server is running on that port). ETH1... are others interfaces...

Well... Copy this code in a text file: $Log = "Application" $Computer ="." $ID = "1002" $Type = "Error" ##The above are your standard Event Viewer attributes, to choose the system log, replace the word Application ##To view Warnings or Information, replace the word Error $Objlog = New-Object system.diagnostics.eventLog($Log, $Computer) #$Objlog = $Objlog | Where-object { $_.EntryType -like $Type } #$Objlog.entries | select -last 5000 $result = $Objlog.entries | where { $_.EntryType -like "[$Type]*" } | select -last 2 | out-string ## On the above, you can amend the 'select -last 2 to whichever number of entries you would like to pull back write-host $result As written in the code itself, replace APPLICATION with the event log you need to check. Same thing for ERROR and ID. Save this file as WHATEVER.ps Run it from powershell and notice that you will have an output with the information needed.

Which is correct... but your game IS RUNNING ON PORT 27015. That means: clients open a connection on port XXXXX (ANY) directed to your server on port 27015. Make a try: On a computer which is running NOTHING, open the command prompt and type: netstat -an You will notice nothing special... Now open a browser and point it to google or any other website... retype the command and now you should see something like: TCP 10.0.0.10:49225 94.245.117.45:80 ESTABLISHED Which means that: On protocol TCP there's an active connection (ESTABLISHED) which is pointing to 94.245.117.45 ON PORT 80 (WHICH IS A TYPICAL PORT FOR WEBSERVERS). Now take a look at 10.0.0.10, this is the PRIVATE address of your computer, look at the port number... it isn't 80 but instead 49225. Now open another website and notice that your LOCAL PORT is radomly generated each time you open a connection.

Mhhh I don't know your router so I'm not sure... anyway... There are routers which want mac address in this way: AABBCC... and others: AA:BB:CC... so, try the combination :) Maybe the point is on ETHER TYPE (4th column) it says: "IP" so actually IP is not the MAC ADDRESS. I don't know which options you can choose from... but anyway... give it a try. The rule you entered means the following: ANY connection coming FROM ANY IP on port 27015 and DIRECTED TO 192.168.2.10 on port 27015 will be QoS. I think this is not correct... because the service on your server may be on port 27015 BUT clients don't open connection FROM port 27015... so basically it should be ANY port.

PAY ATTENTION if you are on a productional environment...

Yeah, as said before... And on the second screen you can configure PER IP / MAC ADDRESS rules.

Hi, If you post a screenshot of QUEUE CONFIGURATION and QOS CLASSIFICATION, I should help you a little bit better. Anyway, QUEUE configuration is HOW QoS manage the traffic. Basically you may have 3 types of queues: 1) First In First Out 2) Priority (usually based on policies) 3) Weighted Fair Queue (low traffic will be preferred instead of high traffic) Check here: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/233039/en-us QoS classification is made on the traffic type, again, if you post a screenshot, I should be able to explain settings... Regarding your last screenshot: DSCP mark should be implemented with caution. I THINK it has been invented by Cisco but I'm not sure. Anyway, this is used to FINE TUNE the QoS. Now the point is simple: let's say you have ONLY 2 types of traffic: VoIP and HTTP. You can give more priority to VoIP and the rest for HTTP. But if you have burst (or unpredictable) traffic, you MUST use more than one policy unless you want to choke your network. With cisco's routers you can create access-lists and define DSCP mark for each protocol. With your router I think you can't do that. So, my suggestion is: unless you really notice a problem (VoIP calls are not possible or other), let DSCP mark off ( NO CHANGE -1 ). Actually I don't know what does AUTO MARKING mean... probably it's something like "The router tryies to determine the best policy"... anyway... I'm not sure... I hope this can help you in some way.

Well... honetly I can't understand why you must save passwords... I don't think you login 100 times everyday... also if you are on a domain, you just have 1 user and 1 password... so why should you save your password? Probably you aren't the first one... but anyway... not many people take this kind of risk...

Yeah, I know... but when you login FROM ANOTHER MACHINE, what's the error? Does it prompt for User/Password?
