Check your IE settings in the internet options - connections tab.

If the connections are the same, sure. If it is IDE and you now have SATA, no. And if you are talking about plugging it in and having XP work, No. You can buy adapters ect. If you just want your music and files from the old drive I would get the USB to IDE/SATA adapter that will allow you to use the old drive like any old external drive and copy over everything. You may want to store your media on an external drive so you don't have to worry about this in the future as well!

I recommend picking a copy up of the book 'The Programatic Programmer'.
It isn't language specific but a general guidance to best practices whenever it comes to developing.

This was fine in the days of ASCII, but the tubes are hardly ASCII anymore, with Unicode, UTF-16, i have 1,112,064 code points, they are not even called characters anymore, because they really aren't. And if you are familiar with best-fit mapping, you would know that there are now dozens of characters that can represent any single symbol in ASCII, meaning that using the above type of blocking mechanisms is silly and technically insecure.

for some reason i did not see the top of your post regarding mysql_real_escape_string.
sorry.

jlego 15 Posting Pro

i saw that you are using the sqlreader, not mysqlreader sorry

jlego 15 Posting Pro
Imports MySql.Data.MySqlClient
Imports System.Data

Public Class classDatabaseRead

    Private sqlConnection As New MySqlConnection
    Private sqlCommand As New MySqlCommand
    Public sqlReader As MySqlDataReader

    Private stringConnection As String = "SERVER=Gemstore;DATABASE=yourdatabase;PORT=3306;UID=user;PWD=password~;"

    Public Sub New(ByVal stringQuery As String)
        Try

            sqlConnection.ConnectionString = stringConnection
            sqlConnection.Open()

            sqlCommand.Connection = sqlConnection
            sqlCommand.CommandText = stringQuery

            sqlReader = sqlCommand.ExecuteReader()

        Catch ex As Exception

            MsgBox(ex.toString)
            sqlCommand.Connection.Close()
            sqlConnection.Close()

        End Try
    End Sub

    Public Sub closeRead()
        sqlReader.Close()
        sqlCommand.Connection.Close()
        sqlConnection.Close()
    End Sub
End Class

then in a form or whatever you are calling it from

DIM Query as string = "SELECT auth_lvl FROM user_verification WHERE userID = '" & userIDIn & "' AND password = '" & passwordIn & "';"
 
DIM r as classdatabaseread = new classdatabaseread(query)
while r.sqlreader.read
auth = r.sqlreader.getstring(r.sqlreader.getordinal("auth_lvl"))
end
r = nothing

funny thread. the only way i get any 'relax' time is if i tell them i am busy and piss around. 100 users with computers should keep you pretty busy unless they all actually know what they are doing with a computer.

uhm. owa.domain.com points to exchange server that runs iis + owa .. ?

im not sure about that - trial and error is how i would figure it out... the journal mailbox to my beleif would have to be on the same server as the mailbox server role - how big are you expecting the mailbox to get?

i heard obl forgot to turn his locations off of his tweets :o

look into journaling.

if im remember right, journaling will send a silent copy of all messages sent or received and store them in a mailbox. you will then have a copy of the email weather or not they delete it

you could also use transport rules to copy a mailbox on all in or out messages

arin.net i beleive is the site that will tell you the ips registrar (there isp) you can get the location of it

to get the name, your gonna more than likely need a court order or something - contact the isp , and if your lucky they have a log of which user used that IP at that specific time

or you could type the "email@domain.com" with the quotes into google and see if you find a name associated with it anywhere.

are you talking about a spec sheet kind of situation?

what we do when a new system is asked to be developed (keep in mind it is a smaller company)

we talk to the key people that are going to use the system. get feedback, ideas, and so forth and write them down on a spec sheet. The spec sheet will say what the application is going to accept, what it is going to manipulate, and what it is going to return. if everyone agrees on the final spec, all spec additions are halted until the BETA is available. a group of testers then play with the application, storing the bugs in a bug database and writing ideas or improvements on spec sheet 2. this goes on for a few weeks or a month etc. once the spec sheet 2 and bugs are accounted for, all spec and bug additions are halted and the program is changed and bugs are fixed. application is then deployed. all additions or subtractions are added to a spec 3 which is used for the version 2 of the product

jlego 15 Posting Pro

go to control panel - admin - event log
clear the application event log
restart the server and try to open the wsus management console

post the errors that appear in the application event log here and ill try to help out

great! i would still try to go over that list and configure everything properly if I was you - this will help you avoid a painful blacklist issue down the road - it happens to all of us i think

jlego 15 Posting Pro

http://www.openspf.org/ will help you generate the spf records

jlego 15 Posting Pro

yup sorry i couldnt be more help - someone else might be able to provide some more info i dunno

good luck!

jlego 15 Posting Pro

yes you didnt come up as spam (1.5 is kinda high though) HAM is good.

you don't have anything above configured based on the results tho - they would say passed instead of nuetral. some mail server are very strict and require additional checks before they receive mail - i am betting that is what your problem is.


also, one peice of advice. im not sure the exact location off the top of my head in exchange 2003. but change your FQDN that your exchange server responds with from helo mesages to mail.yourdomain.com instead of exchangesrv.yourdomain.com

this way everyone doesnt know your internal mail servers fqdn.
in 2010 it is under server config, hub transport, receive connectors. just go to the propertys and you will see the fqdn

jlego 15 Posting Pro

also one last thing that you can try - look at the event logs on the server itself. see if there are errors. if there are do searches on them see if any of them relate to the issue you are having.

its just kinda hard to trouble shoot based on delayed message responses :\

jlego 15 Posting Pro

send an email to the check-auth@verifier.port25.com and post the response if you could - i forgot about that

i keep typing the wrong shit. im not 100% familiar with exchange 2003*

jlego 15 Posting Pro

im not 100% familiar with exchange, it has been along time since i used it. my suggestion would be to configure a smart host (verify easy to configure based on google searches) that has all the correct ptr, rdns, spf, sendierid, and so on information configured. this way when the remote mail server sees the email everything looks good and it is delivered.

i actually posted a mail server check list before. let me see if i can find it and i will post it - that is if you want to try and configure everything properly on your end

jlego 15 Posting Pro

do you mind giving me your mails server external address? if not thats fine.

you are going to want to verify a few thing..

make sure that you have PTR records (reverse dns) with your ISP for your mail server.
you can test this by doing ptr:mailserverexternal on mxtoolbox.com

do you know if you have SPF records - sendID setup?

my guess is this,
that remote mail server is doing checks on the email. spf , reverse dns, and so on. but it is finding things it does not look and considering your mail to be 'spoofed' and not accepting it.

jlego 15 Posting Pro

Ok i reread your original post. if the message was delivered to there junk email - no you would not see it in the Que.

have you ever been able to send email to these outside addresses ?

jlego 15 Posting Pro

I'm sorry let me slow down --

on exchange 2003 you dont need to configure a smtp send connector - you only need to do this on exchange 2007 +, so you don't need to configure one. I am sorry about that I was thinking you where on exchange 2007..

Just so I understand, you are using postini as a incoming mail scrubber for spam/antivirus etc? and there is no filtering on outbound email correct?

jlego 15 Posting Pro

you are right - in exchange 03 send connectors are read only you dont need to configure one until you migrate

or something like that

jlego 15 Posting Pro

OH im sorry i back tracked and saw that you are using exchange 2003. I'm speaking of 07-10

jlego 15 Posting Pro

tell the sever how to route mail to the outside world * sorry my typing is off this morning

jlego 15 Posting Pro

im just offering a suggestion. everyone i have delt with told me that i need a send connector - every book, video tutorial, and course if taken says to use send connector. i'm actually kind of surprised that you didnt have one...

on the hub transport you have receive connectors and send connectors
receive connectors receive your new email based on the mx records of your domain and so on

send connectors tell the server have to route mail to the outside world

try to send an email that you know will get held in the que
go to toolbox - que viewer. let me know where it says the message is stuck at

jlego 15 Posting Pro

you are going to want to do custom*

jlego 15 Posting Pro

your going to want to do customer

smtp
address space *
cost 1
its up to you to include subdomains

use domain name system mx records to route mail but i would suggest that you get a smart host.

check with your isp - they may let you use there corporate mail server (mail.isp.com) as a smart host - youll have to talk to them however. I think macafee lets you use there mail servers as smart hosts too.

jlego 15 Posting Pro

well you are going to need to configure a send connector.

jlego 15 Posting Pro

also - just to verify goto www.mxtoolbox.com type in your external ip for your mail server, make sure you are not black listed anywhere.

do you have a smart host configured on the send connector?

jlego 15 Posting Pro

what do you have setup for your send connector?
