pigeon's questions

I've clicked through on a few forums but unable to find a suggestion for this issue. I have a user with a HP laptop which will boot perfectly fine whilst connected to the network but at home it will take 4 minutes to log on.

Some suggestions I have had is that its looking for the DNS server of the domain. Another was that it was suggested it was a roaming profile (it isn't).

So hoping someone has encountered Windows 7 acting like this and has some suggestions. The other users on this domain don't have the issue and its a mix of XP and Win 7 client PCs.

Hi to the Linux community. I'm coming from a Windows Server background so have mercy.

I'm attempting to whitelist some domains and although I know this isn't the best way of doing so its just a one off for a couple of domains so I thought it would be the quickest way of doing so. Current setup:

Amavis is used to pass emails off the ClamAV and SpamAssasin, currently I make changes in /etc/amavis/conf.d/50-user, as this will overide other settings.

Have created a whitelist file that looks like this:

.domaintowhitelist.com
.domain2towhitelist.com

In the 50-user config file:

Have tried variants like this:

read_hash(\%whitelist_sender, '/etc/amavis/whitelist');
read_hash(\%virus_lovers, '/etc/amavis/whitelist');

And restarting amavis after making those changes. Am I going about this the wrong way? Any help is appreciated.

I'm looking for a way to prevent logons from occurring in order to take a full backup of a Database to migrate from its current SQL Server 2000 instance to a new SQL 2005 instance. A friend of mine suggested running a script which would put the DB into a rollback state. Not being a DBA my DDL is very poor and running a script that I don't understand may not be the best idea.

One option which might be easier is to simply detach and copy, to the new server.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

as of last night we have had an IBM Server running 2003R2 BSOD a couple of times and I have been trawling the net for answers ever since. I've pinned down what triggers it and that is a BackupExec job which has ran without error for as long as I can remember every night up until last night. This is the main file server and as such has access to the IBM Tape Unit for its backups. No actual changes have been made to the File Sever - the only changes made have been some old Databases that were removed and actually live on a different server.

The reason I believe it is the BackupExec job is that I have had this happen twice and both times it occurred approx 2hrs 30mins into the backup job.

I have attached the minidump file to see if anyone can shed any light on what the actual cause might be. Until its resolved I'm not going to be able to backup the file system to tape. The minidump is as follows:
