    iphone newb concerning jailbreaking my 3gs

    I don't care if it's unlocked but for the life of me I can't figure out how to jailbreak this thing. I've never cared for apple products, but my boss raved about his 3gs for so long when I upgraded my blackjack II a few weeks ago I caved and got this. I've looked at various stuff I've...

    Backup Event logs

    All I can find are a few vb scripts on the internet that claim to do this but none of them seem to work. We have 98 Windows Servers (mostly 2003, some 2000) and our boss all of a sudden decides backing them up with the nightly backups (veritas) isn't good enough. We have to export all 98 of...
