• Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
    Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.

    Poor Man's vmotion like setup?

    OK so planning an ESXi 5 installation for 2 win2k8 servers, a couple workstation instances and a few application (linux based) boxes. Will have an openfiler setup for iSCSI on another box containing the images, and a 3rd box which will run backups for the entire network. The 3rd box I was...

    Cisco Router Alternatives

    We jsut set up a crazy client with Aruba networks stuff. Granted they are a wireless firm but have a very good offering in enterprise level switching. IMHO Cisco and Juniper are better at cores and routing, but if Wifi is a goal - they win hands down.

    Need help with cisco 1811 dual wan port forward config

    This is the right tree to bark up. Essentially what is going on is your reply packets from inside only go out one WAN, and the outside host drops it of course. If you only have a couple hosts you need forwards to you can restrict them to a particular WAN (the easy way out). A harder way (the...

    1811 to 1921 site to site vpn?

    Howdy, just a quick sanity check. Want to do L2 vpn from one site to a remote site - both sites have cable and dsl as a backup. Have a Cisco 1811 at one site (with advanced IP suite), and looking at a 1921 SEC/K9 with a 4 port EHWIC at the other end. Will these 2 talk VPN? Just looking...

    Noob wants to stream from a PC over network

    Typically you would use an HTPC AT the display device, and use it to play videos, etc that are stored on either it, or retrieved from a server (NAS). Seems you want to use a computer to build as a server, and looking for a display device (like an xbox 360 or ps3, or Roku, or other small STB)

    Ditching Cable would like some feedback.

    I've been doing this for a while with MythTV. I have 2 "hybrid" digital/analog tuners that I had from a while ago - Hauppauge 1800 and 1600. Which gives me 2 HDTV OTA tuners. We removed the Comcast bill about a year ago and moved to Uverse for Internet only at 24/2 for $60/month. Compared to...

    Tips for a first time DSLR user

    The book - "Understanding Exposure" by Bryan Peterson http://www.amazon.com/Understanding-Exposure-Photographs-Digital-Updated/dp/0817463003 Pretty much cemented my understanding of how to take a picture.

    Any recommendations for SB VPN routers?

    Oh the problem with the dishes was that it was too CLOSE! Only 800 feet or so. I put up the 3com devices, with their 6db or so directionals (patch antenna really) and its fairly well good to go. Its that now the trees are growing up and in the rain it drops. VIbration at 16 miles is totally...

    Any recommendations for SB VPN routers?

    They have an 1811 deployed at the corporate side already for 2 dsl lines, but I've been away from Cisco stuff long enough to no longer recall if there are licenses needed for that sort of stuff. The 1811 deployed does have an advanced image if I recall so maybe I just need a single 861 on the...

    Any recommendations for SB VPN routers?

    Yeah running a trench isn't going to happen. There is a water table involved and its a condo office style building - essentially whats there is there. The 2 buildings aren't owned by the same entity and they aren't "owners" but long term renters. There certainly isn't budget for cutting the...
