<1> whats up people
<1> i'm just about to go out and buy the CCNA book...good idea?
<2> are there any advantages of using PPPOE over PPTP when sharing an internet connection?
<3> sharing through a LAN?
<2> yep
<3> not that i know of
<3> i think pppoe is being preferred over pptp thhough
<2> ive heard that too but i dunno why
<3> my ISP just switched from pptp to pppoe
<2> mine accepts both
<3> yeah i'm still on pptp in fact hehe
<3> i don't think it matters
<2> but when i share the pppoe connection its only email that works on d 'remote' pc
<3> i have around 5 PCs at home all sharing the net
<3> that's probably not a pppoe/pptp issue
<2> i had no probs sharing the pptp connection though...so i guess its best if i stick with it
<3> well i guess so
<4> 3
<5> 4
<4> yeah, one of my irssi commands didnt quite register
<5> how's it going?
<4> groovy, trying to get a promotion
<4> which if i get it, will prolly mean bout an extra $40-$50k over the next 4 years
<4> w00t
<5> nice
<4> waiting to find out if we're all going back to .ph this year or next year
<4> gonna be the whole gang: me, wife, 2 sons, mother in law, father il, brother il, sister il, cousin, aunt and uncle
<5> hehe
<5> that a gang indeed
<4> yup, enough to take up an entire row of seats, regardless of what type of plane we fly on
<4> good thing is, in laws bought their beach house this past year
<4> so we dont have to stay in the provinces in the middle of nowhere
<4> anyway, think i'm gonna put the kids to bed, and go to sleep myself
<4> was up late last night doing homework
<6> anyone here a godaddy regular?

<8> hi skellyji
<8> :)
<9> hey
<9> i need a lil help
<10> how do i keep a specific computer off the network? this computer is not joined to the domain but can connect and use the resources as long as the user supplies credentials
<11> and you dont want it to?
<10> i don't want this computer to be used
<10> I want to ban this computer from getting an IP or anything
<12> using ISA server for firewalling?
<10> I believe so but not 100% sure. That isn't my area but I have the access.
<10> and I don't handle those issues. someone handles the firewall...
<10> I handle the users but this one user keeps putting this computer on the network after being told not to many times
<12> in that case, make it simple and block its MAC address from getting an IP at the DHCP server. in case the machine wont move around, disable the port its connected to in the switch
<10> security and things are a little lax here
<13> is there software that I can monitor my net connection with that will allow me to prioritize what progs get bandwidth?
<13> say torrents vs. newsleecher
<12> you should be able to locate his machine in AD. I dont remember if there's any settings to only allow the user to use one machine. by default in 2k3, an user can register ten machines afaik
<10> can't do the switch b/c they are in singapore and i'm in US.
<13> I had Bandwidth monitor but it felt a bit intrusive and system hogging before I even got into it
<10> I'll try to get his mac address and do it in DHCP
<12> and lock out his account every time you notice the machine is connected. spend time unlocking it again. if his manager complains that this user is falling behind on his work, then you can explain things in simple words
<12> and refer to an existing policy
<10> if we had an existing policy. :) i'm sure there is one somewhere but things have turned over so much... no one knows
<12> you ought to have one if his manager has more authority than you
<10> the other thing is that this machine is not joined to the domain so it isn't in AD
<10> there are a lot of things we ought to have here but don't. no need creating them now either since we've sold. just buying time
<12> that'd make things more difficult if he is more technical than the average person
<12> giving him wrong DHCP settings is one thing you could do
<12> or source-route his IP address to some non-existant place
<12> (at the local company router)
<12> bbl, need to pretend Im working again
<10> guess i need to configure SAV to put the IP address in the report b/c I can't get it...
<10> thnx
<10> how do you get the mac address of a remote computer?
<12> do you know its IP?
<10> yes
<10> but i don't think its on right now.
<12> check the dhcp lease file
<10> so i guess I would need to have a script but... ok
<10> is there an easy way to find which dhcp server is handing out which range?
<12> dhclient and dhcpcd both tell which DHCP server they get reponse from
<12> Windows, by default, doesnt give you that info
<10> nevermind. it must be static
<10> i say that b/c the ip is not within the scope of any of the dhcp servers
<10> and i'm guessing this is a 98 machine. the naming convention of the machine is not one I created and it has spaces in it
<12> that is reason enough to ban it from the network
<10> :) i agree. and have tried... just by telling him not to put it on but, he's all the way over there and i don't know what other resources i have
<12> he doesnt have a manager?
<10> yes. i spoke with my manager and he spoke with him.
<10> i don't know if my manager spoke to his manager though. I guess I will leave it in their hands.
<10> i just hate to let things go w/o resolution
<12> you spoke to the wrong manager, take it up directly
<10> true
<14> Anybody: WinXP -- I am looking for a utiltiy that will switch my laptop from DHCP to a static IP address so that when I am home, I use static, but at the 'Starbucks' I want it to be DHCP, without going thru all the resetting of network and stuff.. Any suggestions?
<4> do a google search for netsh
<15> or better yet, set up your home network correctly.
<15> and just use dhcp everywhere.
<16> I missed the first part thanks to a network reset..can you please repeat?
<15> [14:14] <@caveman> do a google search for netsh
<17> laterz..
<15> although i still say setting up your home network correctly is a better solution.
<16> mINEvOLT, i WOULD LIKE TO USE dhcp EVERYWHERE, BUT, WHEN i NEED TO REMOTE DESKTOP INTO THAT MACHINE AND IT HAS A DHCP ADDRESS, i AM FORCED TO 'GUESS THE IP OF THE MACHINE'
<15> false.
<15> you can ***ign a specific ip to a specific mac address via dhcp.
<16> sorry for caps...
<16> ahhh now that is a thought.. thanks
<15> best of both worlds. you retain dhcp for interoperability and you get a static lan ip for port forwarding.
<15> what kind of router do you have?
<16> thanks, Iwill read up on it..
<3> or use dynamic dns
<16> It is not mine, it is for a family member.. I will have to go in and check it out..
<15> chances are your router's firmware won't have a feature like that.
<15> well then.
<15> i suppose he should've stuck around :P
<3> hmm even $90 routers have static ips for a particular mac nowadays
<15> my point exactly.
<15> most people have $50 wireless access point routers.
<3> most of them have dyndns also :p
<15> ... explain to me how dynamic dns would help him get a static ip on his lan.
<15> oh wait. it wouldn't.
<15> the problem isn't that he can't remember his home ip, or that his isp gives him a dynamic ip.
<3> no, it wouldnt help om getting a static IP
<3> but he can use DHCP then ***ign a domain name to that IP.. and a simple program that updates
<15> o_O
<15> ***ign a domain name to a lan ip?
<15> the internet doesn't work like that.
<3> no to the wan IP
<15> that wouldn't accomplish anything.
<15> for all you know he has a static ip from his isp
<15> and a real domain name pointing to it.
<15> you're solving a problem that doesn't exist.
<3> let me reread his question because i just glanced at it
<15> the dyndns would resolve to his wan ip, point him at his router, and then there's still a chance the router would misforward his connection to a nonexistant host.
<15> as the problem is that his ip is dynamic within his lan.
<15> you can't forward a port if your target host has a dynamic ip.
<15> [again, within the lan. the wan has nothing to do with this situation.]
<15> regardless, back to not showering. peace :P
<3> allright i misread, i thought he wanted to access the wan
<18> hey Intuitive
<18> updated the site
<18> just 20 sec ago
<8> :)
<18> now it even has the right permissions to see the thanks.html page
<19> hi to all
<8> hi mc
<19> any help linez available?
<8> No lines in this channel - just questions and answers
<19> k..
<19> how can i connect VNC over the internet ?
<19> can anyone help me out ???
<8> behind a router or not?
<8> Now quit the begging.
