I need to write a guggle to zatch testing strategy. Normally, I write them in slices
I am rarely lost in this thread, but this could be a Lewis Carroll poem from my perspective.
Could just be a hoax, though. I fake some headaches, everyone gets used to poor helpless Spike. Then one day, no warning, I snap a spine, bend a head back, drain 'em dry. Brilliant.

Hey. New board.

Sits with Gris on this one.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
So, anyone know how to view the communications between Microsoft Access 2007 and SQL Server 2008? Using ODBC and TCP/IP.
Or does anyone have a good rec for a packet-sniffer?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
What version of firmware is your NAS on, ND? I can see BA_Backup, but when I select it, that's the error I get.
That's not Lewis Carroll, it's James Thurber. Sheesh, people.

ita, silly question with your backup problems... Not 100% familiar with the set up, as I don't have one, but, the NAS is connected via cable to the airport?? Could you have a bad cable??? Hey, sometimes it's the simple things.

This is what the web interface to the NAS reports:
2000.1231
Built on Fri, 19 Aug 2011

The NAS is connected to a router, omnis. And I can copy files to and from it just fine. I just can't:
- use Time Machine
- resolve symbolic links in a Photoshop Elements save dialog (they resolve fine in a PSE open dialog, and all the other apps I've tried so far)
I can certainly try swapping cables, but that would be some of the weirdest ethernet behaviour I've ever seen.
Of course, ND having the same version of OS and firmware as mine isn't really comforting. Hmm. What are the other variables? Must ponder.

The rest of the details of my network shouldn't impact it, but I have an Airport extreme connected to my Cable modem which covers the front house. This has a GigE tieline back to a 24 port Gigabit switch. The NAS is connected to this switch, along with a second airport extreme that is covering the office in the 5 GHz range. There is another GigE tieline from that switch to a 8 port Gigabit switch, where the third Airport Extreme is generating a 2.4 GHz network. The Airport in the front house is one of the newer models that can generate both 2.4 and 5 GHz at the same time.
There are also two Airport Expresses on the network that are used as wireless bridges for connecting printers and the home theatre setup in out bedroom.
The MacBook Airs only ever connect wirelessly, and they can connect to the NAS from any of the wireless network nodes.

Well, it's not that it's not authenticating--I get as far as entering credentials (I'm trying it wired only right now, no diff), and if I put in an invalid password it shimmies at me.
Huh. I fired up the old Mac, and it can't connect to it anymore either. Great.
Well, hey! At least I am troubleshooting a different problem now.
