Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!
I have a supid question. The person that creates new e-mail ids at my new job has been out, so I'm using the old person's e-mail till they can get my id created.
But, I thought I'd be all smart and change the name, so it still says it's coming from me. Where do you do that in Outlook? I can't find it, and it's making me crazy.
On mine, it is: Tools ==> Services
Then I select, Internet Email and Properties.
Huh. There is no "Services." I wonder if only the administrator can do it.
Hmm. It might be that your mail server is configured so you can't make changes like that.
OK, one of our servers has been moved to a DMZ, so I can no longer get to it by mapping it as a network drive in Windows Explorer. Because it's in the DMZ it's no longer part of our domain.
I'm fairly clueless when it comes to Windows networking and all that Active Directory crap. So, do we have to make this server be its own domain controller (with active directory) or can we make it still be part of our domain even though it's not on the same network as our other 'puters? (The way it is now I can't map to it because it has no domain controller.) I have tried telling our domain controller where to find the DMZ'd computer but couldn't get it to work.
eta: Or are we stuck with FTPing to this computer?
Hack found. Thanks, guys.
I'm not an expert in securing Windows servers, but enabling file sharing or AD on a DMZ system sounds like a bad idea.
vw, I'm pretty sure you can change it in the account information. On my version, that would be Tools | Options | Mail Delivery |Accounts, then double-click the account.
but enabling file sharing or AD on a DMZ system sounds like a bad idea.
Yeah, it does kinda.
Actually, I only need file sharing on it because it's not set up properly to let Visual Studio .Net maintain web pages through HTTP. I suppose that's what I really should be fixing....
So, I have a bootleg copy of some evil empire software that I'm trying to install on my sister's computer, and it tells me I need the current version of EvilEmpire Installer to install it. So I go to EvilEmpire and download the latest versino of the installer.
And it still won't install the software.
Argh!
