All ports are blocked it seems.

I have a problem where I want to RDP to my windows box at home from my work computer. I can get it to work fine using Hamachi, except that Hamachi keeps disconnecting/reconnecting every 30 minutes or so. I want to use ssh, but I'm stuck for a few reasons. I can configure putty to use my...

awesome story... thanks for making my day. To be honest, my friend always had an obsession with saying "BOB DOLE!!!", just like "BOB SAGET!!!". Then I was thinking of screennames one day, and I went with bobdole once. It's turned into a cult thing ever since with close friends of mine and me.

I agree with drebo. However, password management policies are quite easy to set in windows server. A quick google could find you that. Hint: check in the Active Directory Security Policy

Can you be more specific?

bobdole, first, I must say that I have had a really weird obsession with THE Bob Dole since I've been in college. So it's ironic I'm talking to a bob dole. Anyway, I don't really want to buy a hardware firewall, I just want to make one with a pc like you have in your obfuscated version...

What are your questions? Perhaps you won't need to pay... just my two cents.

Hey all, So I've fallen into a some $$ recently and am about to move into a new house with a few friends of mine at school. I plan on building a new gaming rig and turning my current rig into a firewall/server. Being the way that I am, I want this to be an over-the-top project. So here's...

so which does it better?

Any recommendations for dedicaded Hi-Fi amplifiers under $1000? Right now I'm looking at either the Outlaw 7075 or 7125. Admittingly, I'm only driving a pair of Polk RT225i with a Pioneer VSX-D514 at the moment, so either model will do fine, I know. I am currently looking into DIY projects...

Hey all, Let's say I have a ASUS Xonar HDMI sound card hooked up via HDMI to a decent pre/pro, like the Marantz AV8003. Okay, now let's say I'm playing a movie that uses DTS-HD MA, should the sound card or the pre/pro be doing the decoding? What about with much cheaper pre/pros...

So does anyone have any ideas?

Hey all, I'm trying to find a known list of audio codecs for motherboards. Basically I'm just looking for an SLI capable board with a Realtek ALC885 of ALC889 codec (I want something better than just an ALC888). I don't want a 790i board because I don't have DDR3 RAM. Any help would...

I do want a native Windows application; something that comes right out of the box.

Hey all, I'm trying to find a built-in Windows utility that will connect directly through a serial COM port to a Cisco switch. The catch: NOT hyperterminal. I know about teraterm and the like, but I just don't feel like loading that on a bunch of programming computers if I can just find out...
