  • In Windows 2003 Server the Uninstall option for TCP/IP is disabled since it is a core component. To reinstall TCP/IP, you need to use the following command netsh int ip reset logfilename. It also supports IPv6, though your entire network (routers, etc) must support it. Here's a brief illustration of installing, viewing and pinging the 127.0.0.1 address: .NET IPv6 AVI (~1 MB) (zipped)

Study guide to help prepare for the 70-244 exam

 

Even though Win2k and Windows XP is their future, Microsoft cannot lay Windows NT 4 to rest. They've acknowledged that NT 4 domain will remain for a few more years and have created an exam to test people supporting this environment. It counts as an elective for the Win2k MCSE track. This study will help you prepare for the new exam which went live on April 17, 2001. I passed and so can you.

Linux & Perl

Version 1.0 (ahhhhh! We're talking written in 1999) of the Linux IP Firewall Log Analyzer (ipfwlog.pl) is now available for download. This Perl script reads the /var/log/messages log file and summarizes IP packets that were filtered (denied) via ipfwadm. Suggestions and comments welcome at al@degutis.com. (Warning: haven't touched this since 2000)
