Sorry for the mess with the servers... that is what I get for trying to go out and have a life, huh?

Rally was on last night so the withdrawl wasn't too bad.

And now hopefully everything should be good to go for a long while... finished my last updates tonight.

Cool! Hopefully, you waited until after the Super Bowl to finish the upgrades, though. If not, you missed a prett good game!

James, would you get your crap together man? I mean, come on. :biggest:

Dude, tell me about it... I tried to do ONE little thing and you would not belive the mess. All my web sites got deleted, my mail server was removed, and now I am unable to backup because of some weird file permissions error... :curse:

I'm not thrilled myself...

Okay, I am offocially calling it a night. Hopefully everything works (I'll be testing this post to see if the SMTP server is online now) and then I won't touch them any more - I SWEAR!

As good a place to test as any... come on mail server - WAKE UP!!!! :curse:

 

[RS25.com]

Trying again... sheesh

 

[RS25.com]

Last time!

 

[RS25.com]

Yay! It's fixed! Time for bed!

 

[Guest]

hm. I thought you banned me for the smartass remark.. then I got back in... then I replied and got shut out again.. I'm going to bed.

 

[RS25.com]

Nah - I tend to warn people before I ban them. Besides, you're a regular and you're cool!

 

[DrBiggly]

You done with your server silliness there James?

(hehe, just had to ask, I know how much of a pain it can be)

Aren't most of us here IT geeks?

Man I am hoping so... you don't even know the headache I went through this weekend! :curse:

Ooh, ooh, me too, me too! :biggest:

Oh hey, while I've got an audience...

anybody know (off hand) how to disable the SCSI on a Proliant 800? It's dad's old reject server and the hard drive failed... that and I had to put the terminator in his new server with the tape drive, so I don't have a terminator. I'd like to stick one (or more) of the spare IDE drives in it that I've got sitting around.

 

[DrBiggly]

I've had a good amount of SCSI experience having to deal with Macs and NLEs but if you are trying to disable a bus on it then it depends on whether or not it is on board. If it is on-board, then you can disable it in the BIOS, 99% of the time. If it it just a card then there shouldn't be anything else system critical on it; just pull the card.

 

[Guest]

Pull the card? :flame:

Jeez man. I'm not that stupid!

The SCSI is built onto the riser card... the card that plugs into the motherboard and that all of the ISA/PCI slots are on, including the video. I can't very well just unplug that.
I tried looking through the BIOS and didn't see anything. Next time I'm down at dad's office I'll have to swipe the manuals that came with it... not like he needs them anymore.

Now, anybody know where to get unbuffered EDO DIMMs for cheap?
