<0> ah huh.
<0> whyzzyrd: cat I ask a favour?
<1> Viking667: sure
<2> I get to find out how I did on my belt test here in an hour or so.
<2> and how my son did on his.
<3> belt test?
<2> yeah
<2> tkd
<3> ohhhh...no need, j00 both failed
<2> heh
<2> I think I did ok. My boy says he feels pretty confident too.
<4> hi siglite, db2
<2> hey Cynic
<5> guess it's time to close the window.... the thermostat is at 55' and the heater just turned on... wow, the weather just kind of sneaks up on you
<2> man, when I tested, I was one of two adults that tested this go-round.
<2> I felt like kramer in that episode of sienfield.
<3> bwhahaha
<2> there were like 25 kids that tested, only two adults and a handfull of teenagers
<6> http://www.eweek.com/article2/0,1895,1931904,00.asp
<6> That is so cool
<5> http://www.dustinsworld.net:2345 is even cooler though
<4> PolarWolf: hah, that's pretty crazy. sounds like Verizon need a fwap.
<7> is it just me or does "on-access" virus scanning ****ing ****?
<7> talk about eating load needlessly
<4> smsie: it's good for dumb users who can't schedule/remember proper scans and tend to click stupid links and open stupid files..
<4> but, uh, yeah, it's a hog alright.
<7> Cynic: but it scans EVERY ****ing file as you open it. Even if the file was only opened 2 minutes ago
<5> on-access virus?
<8> I turn it off.
<7> Cynic: imagine a major java application (inneficient as **** with it) that whilst opening reads about 1,000 different jarfiles
<4> smart users can safely turn it off, sure..
<7> synapsis: I can't (legally). It's enfoced in the policy
<4> smsie: good point
<8> D'oh.
<7> although, yeah, I *have* turned it off...and will continue to do so
<2> PolarWolf: that's pretty damned funny
<2> PolarWolf: no one ever accused verizon of being smart. Bell Labs maybe, but not verizon.
<7> the seebeyond enterprise designer thing goes from taking about 15 secind to open, to taking 6 *minutes*. That's a ****ing *extreme* overhead!
<6> siglite: *nod*
<6> siglite: Talk about harvesting information :)
<9> PolarWolf: what tha? who is this dude emailing me about some ethernet adapter. :)
<2> PolarWolf: yeah
<6> Though I can imagine it to be rather annoying if you just want to use the damn phone :)
<2> hmmmm
<6> schitzo: Hm? I dunno, spam? :)
<2> looks like we're having a switch failure in the data center.
<2> I shall lart my coworker for buying dell switchen.
<1> siglite: presumably it's redundant?
<2> it shall be replaced with a cisco, so sayeth the lord.
<1> siglite: I was offered a pile of "Grey" cisco's today. Cheap.
<6> schitzo: If it's from that guy, I suppose it's about what we talked about
<2> we have a cold spare, but currently the affected ports aren't a big enough priority to do anything until after business hours.
<9> PolarWolf: yeah, just har***ing you. It's that dude.
<8> m00
<2> we're gonna get a cisco, and it's going to be a layer 3 switch goddamnit.
<1> siglite: 3750 eh?
<2> if I see one more layer 2 switch at my office I'm gonna set it on fire.
<9> siglite: heh. target practice.
<3> 3750 is a decent switch, or 45xx
<2> dogbert2: 4500 series is waaaay overkill for this application.
<3> yeah :)
<9> Mmmm, 6509's
<2> 3500 or 3700 series will be fine.
<2> schitzo: I've been working on two of those all day.
<9> siglite: we have a few of those.
<2> schitzo: they give me a chub.
<3> 3550 with L3 firmware should work ok (24 port job)
<2> dogbert2: *nod*
<3> 3550 should be cheaper, IMO (say $2000 tops) :)
<1> 3550's EOL but
<10> waht does "grant" mean in regard to mysql? In phpMyAdmin, i can see my users, and it lists there privledged (for instance, INSERT, DROP, etc.) however in the next column, titled "grant", it reads "NO", what is not "grant" ed here?
<2> the customer I've been working with has a pair of fully loaded 6509 ch***is. 12 port gig fiber x2, redundant MSFCs, several 48 port blades
<2> it's pure cisco creamy goodness.
<11> db2
<11> siggy
<3> siglite, quit spooging on the cisco equipment
<1> siglite: 12-port cards? I doubt it. 16's they'll be
<4> eriq
<2> whyzzyrd: I'm pretty sure they're 12's. I never actually counted. I could log in and do a show int ont he blade and look.
<2> whyzzyrd: wanna hear the funny part?
<1> siglite: they have a 10M uplink?
<2> whyzzyrd: oh , worse than that.
<10> i bet the ability to "grant" privleges to other uses that must be it
<1> siglite: 2M?
<3> m000000!
<2> whyzzyrd: when I arrived in thier network, it was 2000 nodes in vlan 1 in a /16 subnet.
<1> siglite: yuck
<3> heh, all of those nodes in the management vlan?
<2> heh, yeah
<3> morons
<2> there was a 60-80k stream on every single port of netbios broadcast traffic
<3> sheesh
<2> the fiber trunks were into the megabits, just broadcast crap.
<3> pathetic
<2> yeah
<12> eww
<2> I've been fix0ring that network slowly for about 6 months now.
<8> You should see the netbios traffic around here.
<2> subnetting it off, vlanning departments off
<3> well, vlans work quite well...
<2> yeah
<8> Somewhere the MCSE managed to get some wires crossed so we have office traffic on the machine network.
<3> your basic CCNA/NP should be able to set that kind of stuff off
<3> s/off/up/
<2> yeah
<2> I have NFI why they did things the way they did.
<1> siglite: probably because it worked, and was simple.
<2> but when I got there, I was like trying to find the most polite way possible to ask about thier daily crack volume
<1> siglite: until they added more machines, and more machines, and more machines. Then it looked nasty.
<2> whyzzyrd: that's probably exactly what happened.
<2> they have like, THREE people running that whole network
<1> siglite: 3 *network* admins for 2000 nodes?
<2> really overloaded staff, so no one really could even break out of firefighting mode to do any real network design.
<2> yeah
<1> siglite: We have 2, for 12k edge points.
<2> but they do everything
<1> siglite: ahh. They do dinwows too?
<2> pc support, servers, routers, security, everything
<2> those three guys
<2> that's thier IT staff.
<3> siglite, i've seen so many ****ed up businesses it's not even pfunny!
<2> yeah, one guy can manage hundreds and hundreds of routers and switchen if that's his only job.
<3> siglite, exactly...most network support staff are usually overworked
<2> but 2k nodes, and an IT dept. of 3...
<1> siglite: If only I could actually stop having to fix stuff that's not my job. I could sit on my *** *all* day.
<1> siglite: that's not *that* bad if they have managed deployment stuff, centralised AV, and application deployment.
<2> so, in thier defense, the fact that **** was running at all is a tribute to thier tenacity.
<2> thier main network admin's a pretty clued guy.
<2> when we came in, he was like "oh yeah. It's ****ed up. I know it's ****ed up. You know it's ****ed up. We don't have time to un**** it. That's why you're here."
<2> now I know why mechanics don't like "basket jobs"
<2> "it's all broke, here are all the parts. I think. Put it all back together and make it run."
<3> I know that one company laid off some people, now the company is drowning due to the fact that the people they laid off were the ones who knew how everything worked...bwhahahaha
<2> yeah, that's bad.
<2> blame the people they fired.
<2> and management. Separation of duties is really important.
<1> dogbert2: that happened a lot in when dot-com went tits up.
<3> yeah, that's what i've heard they are doing...blaming the staff they let go...never mind that they have lost 30% of their business as a result
<1> probably blaming them for not documenting properly.
<13> sweet...got me a 4GB USB Flash Drive today
<3> whyzzyrd...most of the stuff was documented, but the **** is older than moses (the combined tech. knowledge of the staff let go was 70 years)
<9> PolarWolf: I'm a Hero!
<3> they throw out 70 years of combined exp., and then cry like a wuss when the lower priced help they retained can't figure out how **** works
