We all know the hassle, you wish to download some neat utility but the download link require you to hand over your email address (download link send via email). Now as a person that has previously released quite a few utilities I can understand why this is, its nice to see who is using your […]
Ok just heard about this lately, its actually rather cool. goto live.com , in the search field enter; IP:<IP ADDRESS> <IP-ADDRESS> would be the IP of a webserver, adsl line or whatever, the neat thing is that you will now get a listing of all the domains hosted on this IP.. Nice.. Usually I use google […]
If you work as a Sysadmin you may have run across the issue where there is no more free Terminal Server “slots” available on a server (As you may know it is possible to connect 3 remote TS sessions against a server, 2 regular and 1 admin/console), this is quite annoying and is often due […]
Although I am more or less up and running again after the Needhost bankruptcy (just 2 months blogposts lost), there are those less fortunate. One of my very close friends lost his wife’s blog (not popular), but he pointed me to this blogpost that may be of interest to former Needhost customers; http://blog.surftown.dk/?p=1239 Let’s hope […]

AVG Antivirus has joined the not so popular club of antivirus vendors, that has released faulty definitions for their virus scanner. In this case it caused AVG to wrongly detect a virus in a vital Windows OS file, which in worst case (if you followed AVG’s advice) could lead to a crashed Windows installation. From […]
Another CMAK tip is to install the Windows 2008 CMAK version, this has new features and is fully compatible with Windows Vista.
REPOST: A simple way of distributing a VPN client installation is to create one with CMAK (Found on your WIndows 2003 CD), even though this is mostly aimed at Microsofts ISA server VPN it should work fine with other providers (supports L2TP and PPTP). Its fairly easy to get started and you end up with […]
Many people are tired of the UAC (what is UAC) warnings that pop up ever so often in Windows Vista, every time administrator privileges are required you will be prompted if its ok..
