    Vista machines cant see local webcam at port 8080 (XP can)

    I know on my webcam systems (GeoVision-based), I need to temporarily enable all things to do with ActiveX and running scripts. Also disable anti-phishing. These are all found in IE7 security settings. Also need to disable UAC (UserAccessControl) in the users in the Control Panel. Once I connect...

    Victim of a prank at work- Internet explorer

    I seem to recall a screensaver that looked like a BSOD. Set it to kick in at 1 minute and password protect it. :D

    DNS problem

    The addresses I'm trying are in the 192.168.1.xxx range, gateway is 192.168.1.1, DNS addresses are from SBC Yahoo (triple checked for correctness); the identical setup is used on the working box. When I do ipconfig, no MAC address is listed; actually listed as all zeros. It was suggested to...

    DNS problem

    I am trying to troubleshoot a friends network. The network consists of 2 XP boxes with XP Home going through a Linksys BEFSR41 v3 router sharing a DSL connection. One of the boxes is a dedicated security camera DVR and thus needs a static internal IP; this one connects to the 'net fine. This...

Only drawback seems to be that "follow cursor" to change songs in Foobar 2k doesn't seem to work well; often have to stop the current song then double-click on the new one. Other than that, it gets the job done. My Foobar box is a...

    static public ip confusion

    Well, tweakah was correct. The appliance was indeed a 2Wire Modem/Router all-in-one. And it was quite easy to set up; I first bridged networks to allow the public IPs to be used as private (after assuring all firewall ports were closed), then I made each of the 3 PCs "fixed" in the router (no...

    static public ip confusion

    After posting, I went to the SBC DSL help site and did find that the IP 172.xxx.xxx.xxx seems to be a 2wire modem/router. This now makes more sense to me concerning the "usable range" IPs and IP/port mapping/forwarding. My client did not mention any new hardware, but then again, I haven't talked...

    static public ip confusion

    I will be setting up a network that has been assigned a static public IP. SBC has given a range of "usable" IPs as well. For instance: Modem IP = 172.xxx.xxx.x (is this simply the setup GUI IP?) Public IP= 68.xxx.xxx.38 (is this the Gateway IP?) "Usable Range"= 68.xxx.xxx.33 - 37 (are these...
