The book states that Bind 8.1.2 is required for Srv and dynamic update support. A friend let me borrow his cbtnugget 70-219 video.. which tells me that the version of bind to support srv and dynamic updates is 8.2.1 Who was right... I did a google search for bind srv dynamic update the first page to come back is www.microsoft.com/technet/ community/columns/profwin/pw1200.mspx Which states 8.2.1 A KB article on MS web site states 8.1.2 Anyone have a clue who is right....

    - OT: Nosferatu is hiring Paint me thoroughly flabbergasted, but my former employer/nemesis/antichrist is hiring for technical positions _in this country_. Openings are for an "IT project leader," which is that to which the U.S. programmers got reclassified when the coding work got sent to Cheapistan, and "senior technical support," which tells me the one support person of any value (whose value was mainly his ability to lie with impunity and finesse to customers about the scope and impact of crises) quit or got fired. Neither opening is posted with any online service. I only found out about them because my well-meaning parents provide me with the weekly classifieds from the local Sunday paper. The jobs aren't even listed with the paper's own site. I don't know what kind of candidates they hope to get with a listing like this. Since this has to be a conscious choice, I can't begin to imagine what gambit Nosferatu has planned. All the remaining project managers got laid off on December 31st of last year, as part of N.'s plan to directly (micro)manage the software development process. To hire someone for on-site is a serious retrenchment. Support was supposed to be sent to the group in the Philippines, about which I've said little to this point. A note on the Filipino support abortion: Some companies sent support overseas out of cheapness, others have a more legitimate idea of trying to provide round-the-clock support without a night shift by forwarding calls to a locale where it's currently daylight. N. was obviously motivated by the former, but was turning the latter on its head. Despite the company's service being available 24 hours, it received 99% of its use 8:00AM - 8:00PM ET. There was really no need for after-hours support. In a move that made sense only to N., he got the idea to forward support calls (using VoIP over a path that was 128kbps, and shared with the data traffic, on the Philippine end, if you can believe that one) to the "office" in Manila. Thing is, Manila is 13 hours (if I recall correctly) ahead of the eastern U.S., so the Filipinos would be answering support calls during what amounted to a night shift. Given the truly byzantine and soul- crushing nature of the support required, I guess having support techs half-zonked-out, or else reduced to quivering catatonia by caffeine overdoses, added an extra frisson to support calls. -- http://www.vigo-alessi.com/images/products/1362.jpg Tag: is it just me Tag: 130337

    - Outsourcing gone mad! With Catholic clergy in short supply in the US, Indian priests are picking up some of their work, saying Mass for special intentions, in a sacred if unusual version of outsourcing. American, as well as Canadian and European, churches, are sending Mass intentions, and requests for services like those to remember deceased relatives and thanksgiving prayers, to clergy in India. The requests are mostly routed to Kerala's churches through the Vatican, the bishops or through religious bodies. Rarely, prayer requests come directly to individual priests. While most requests are made via mail or through travelling clergymen, a significant number arrive via email, a sign that technology is expediting this practice. In Kerala's churches, memorial and thanksgiving prayers conducted for local residents are said for a donation of 40 rupees ($1.30), whereas a prayer request from the US typically comes with $US5 ($7.25), the Indian priests say. -- Regards, Slarty Bartfast Tag: is it just me Tag: 130303

    - Comment on TestKing et al Every time I take an exam I keep thinking of how in the hell do the likes of Test King et al come up with the exact test questions for a particular exam. I took a test on Saturday and once I knew I was going to pass, I tried to memorize just one question to see if I could do it. Once I passed and left the testing center, I tried to recreate the question and I could recreate it in general terms but nothing close to verbatim. I am sure there are those out there that can memorize questions but I have to think that there must be testing sites that are on the payroll of TestKing and allowing lamers to take in laptops and cameras.

    - Exam 70-216 I have heard from others that 216 is on of the most difficult microsoft exams for 2000. Any suggestions on material that would help other than the standard microsoft publications, and the various labs that i have setup and completed many times. Any specific areas to study? Does anything stand out as being more prodominant on the exam? I have taken the classes and now just finishing up on the exams and need as much insight as i can get on additional material to study because unlike some umm folks i want to know this stuff so i can pass the exam and not just pass the exam on memory. I know the microsoft site recommends the self study kit. But is this really the best material to study? Thanks for any guidance you can give. Tag: is it just me Tag: 130230

    - Some of you test takers are idiots ! ! ! Some of the best test takers are the worst employees. Passing the tests does not mean your a great network admin or computer technictian. It just means your good at taking tests, period. I've been a PC/Network Technictian for 8 years, and I can't pass any of the tests. And probably never will be able to. The company and companies I work for do not use Win2000 and WinXP operating systems the way the test books do. In my 8 years I have probably not seen 5% of what is in the test books. The roll-playing situations that the test books show are not in the real world. And you will probably never come across any of those situations.

Been reading quite a few of these posts the last couple of weeks and it's funny to me how people come in here ask a question and get shot down by you know it all people. Some of us are trying to make it in the it field and would like a little help. If your not willing to help don't post, but don't degrade people for wanting to know more. Knowledge is king and some of us are trying to learn. To those of you that are biting at the bit to reply flame away. I'm ready for it, but next time somebody come in here and asks something think of where you were 10, 15, or 20 years ago in your search for the answer. Maybe this sounds like a sob story but I'm trying to learn about the mcse cert and others are too. I don't think people are asking for all the answers just a little shove in the right direction.

    - Dual Booting 2000 and 2003 What's the best way to dual boot Windows 2000 Pro and Windows 2003 Server? I want the 2000 to be (semi-) permanent, but the 2003 server is temporary because it's a eval copy that blows up eventually, and because I want it to study with and I suspect I'll kill it in my own little way. I want 2003 on a different partition that I can re-format/re-install. Is there anything I need to be aware of? If I were to re-format the 2003 partition, do I need to modify anything (boot.ini, for example) in order for 2000 to load properly? Does it matter which OS gets installed first? Is it too late on a Friday for these questions? And what are the requirements for MCSE anyway? (sorry, I figure certain regulars are pulling their hair out and I wanted to finish them off...).

    - father-daughter talk Father-Daughter Talk A young woman was about to finish her first year of college. Like so many others her age she considered herself to be a very liberal Democrat and was for distribution of all wealth. She felt deeply ashamed that her father was a rather staunch Republican which she expressed openly. One day she was challenging her father on his beliefs and his opposition to higher taxes on the rich & the addition of more government welfare programs. Based on the lectures that she had participated in and the occasional chat with a professor she felt that for years her father had obviously harbored an evil, even selfish desire to keep what he thought should be his. The self professed objectivity proclaimed by her professors had to be the truth and she indicated so to her father. He stopped her and asked her point blank, how she was doing in school. She answered rather ha! ughtily that she had a 4.0 GPA, and let him know that it was tough to maintain. That she studied all the time, never had time to go out and party like other people she knew. She didn't even have time for a boyfriend and didn't really have many college friends because of spending all her time studying. That she was taking a more difficult curriculum. Her father listened and then asked, "How is your good friend Mary doing." She replied, "Mary is barely getting by." She continued, "She barely has a 2.0 GPA," adding, "and all she takes are easy classes and she never studies." "But Mary is so very popular on campus, college for her is a blast, she goes to all the parties all the time and very often doesn't even show up for classes because she is too hung over." Her father then asked his daughter, "Why don't you go to the Dean's office and ask him to deduct ! a 1.0 off your 4.0 GPA and give it to your friend who only has a 2. 0." He continued, "That way you will both have a 3.0 GPA and certainly that would be a fair and equal distribution of GPA." The daughter visibly shocked by her father's suggestion angrily fired back, "That wouldn't be fair! I worked really hard for mine, I did without and Mary has done little or nothing, she played while I worked real hard!" The father slowly smiled, winked and said, "Welcome to the Republican Party."

    - Unaible to join domain Hello! I am studying for exam 70-290. I have a small lab at home, which consists of 3 PC's, running different OS: WinXP Pro, Win 2003 Server, and Win 98. The 2003 installation is "fresh", since 5 days, but the problems came very soon. I am unable to join my XP machine to the domain. Here is some background information, that describes the scenario. The 2003 PC is a Domain controller, and the NIC settings are: TCP/IP address: 192.168.0.1 Subnet:255.255.255.0 DNS: 192.168.0.1 No ICF is running. The XP Prof: 192.168.0.11 255.255.255.0 DNS 192.168.0.1 Win 98: 192.168.0.15 255.255.255.0 No DNS. So, when I try to ping from the XP to 2003, I receive request timed out. There is no communication between them. At the other hand, there is no problem between XP and 98. I have eliminated cable and adapter problems: I have changed the network cable. So, I have tried to duplicate the IP address of XP and 2003, something 192.168.0.11 at them both, and have received error message: There is conflict at the network. That means, there is communication between the machines, and there is no hardware problem. I have removed IP security policies in order to permit unsecured connections between the PCs - nothing changes. So, please give me some advice: where could be the problem, how to troubleshoot this situation. Is there any tool, that I can use and see if the in- and out-traffic of the 2003 is blocked? Any help will be greatly appreciated! Tag: is it just me Tag: 129744

    - 70-219 Just a couple of questions that anyone who has taken 70- 219 can hopefully answer... Firstly... is this exam 4 hours? when I was taking 70-217 I was in a room with a guy doing 70-220... the administrator at the test centre told me Id be done way before him as he was in for 4 hours (does this apply to all the design exams?) Second... From reading posts/checking info on the net I get the overall view that 70-219 is four case studies...with approx 10 questions per case study. If you complete case study one... then go onto case study 2.. you cant go back and change your answer on CS1 etc etc I've had a good exam technique that has worked well through all the other exams... as this is my last exam I dont want to screw up because the exam format throws me!
