Grey. Telekinesis has always been a desire of mine. The sci-fi nut in me wants to go with purple, but the realist in me realizes that if I change phase, I'd just fall through the floor.

Hm, if you count one that I was dragged to as a kid, it was The Highwaymen. Of my own accord, it was No Doubt.

For most cases, a single backup job will do the trick. However, you may notice the Veeam VM, vCenter, and Veeam proxies being held to last due to resources in use. If you find your jobs being hung up due to that, you may wish to consider moving those items to their own job. This was more of an issue with Veeam 6, though. 7 seems better at working around that issue.

It's hard to get your hands on one in good condition... I wish that some of the companies who make good gaming keyboards would implement buckling spring type mechanical connections. Nothing quite like those for the feel and that tactile jump and click closer to a switch than a button, But I'm pretty happy with my G19S.

Have you tried the Razer Green switches? They're darn close. They don't have the give after click that buckling spring does, but do have tactile activation feedback with a proper click.

How's the feel for this keyboard when compared with a G15?

It's blue! Yes!

Not liking the tagging thing going on in the inbox, though. What is this, Twitter?

In the inbox?

Yes, in the inbox.

Could you post a screenshot please?

i don't know why are you using Microsoft product for managing your VPN connection, me personally i have a site to site VPN connection using 2 pfSense boxes in each office, and everything work fine without issues, no need for authentication since the 2 offices connected 24/24, and even with dynamic ip, using dynDNS record

can't you change your current setup ???

Site-to-site VPNs don't help mobile users.

Outside of DirectAccess, I haven't used RRAS since Windows 2000. If needed, I could build out a test box in my lab.

This is from Work

Is your ISP based in your building?

Build a lab and get a trial license for vCenter or Horizon View. You'll have all the bells and whistles to play with.

You should see a related tunnel/rule in your firewall configuration. In an AD environment, the DC should be set as the DNS server, so that doesn't necessarily point to anything specific as the VPN.

Checking...

Well, the "free" Endian firewall we use kind of hid these options but I did find something (masking out the IP and port numbers):

Uplink ANY UDP/1701 ALLOW with IPS 0.0.0.0: 000 L2TP

Uplink ANY TCP/1723 ALLOW 0.0.0.0: 0.0.0.0 PPTP

It was pointed at the old server. So, just point this to the new DC and I'll be good? No need to go through and set up ROUTING AND REMOTE ACCESS since it was never configured on the old server? That's basically where my confusion was in how ROUTING AND REMOTE ACCESS was never set up on the old one.

You'll want to configure remote access on the new server first.

On the DC or allow my "services/file" server to handle it?

Personal preference? There's pros and cons to both.

Quick side question...since ROUTING AND REMOTE ACCESS was never configured on the old server/DC (SBS 2003), how did it work then? Just by the tunneling?

I've never worked with SBS before.

How do the clients connect?

Though the broadcast address and using their domain ID and password.

Let's see if i can be more specific - Is it SSL? PPTP? IPSEC? Is there a VPN client installed, or does it use the built-in Windows VPN client?

Where else would you find gems like this one?

The OP's having issues with SEP, which is pretty common enough, except for he's doing this with thin clients...

How do the clients connect?

On a humorous note, inserting "Dude," at the beginning of the title would be hilarious.

Seriously, though, how do the clients connect? That should give you a starting place to look.

@alexntg nope. No idea where one would be. Where would I be likely to come across one?

For you, The Westchester in White Plains or the Danbury Fair Mall

If that's where they are, how have any of you stumbled across one?

I've had SpiceCorps meetings in some of them. I've been to ones in Atlanta and Houston, as well the kiosk in Providence. I want to say that I've visited another as well, but can't recall offhand where it was.

Yeah, so that got hijacked. What about softphones again? I've yet to use one I like, but I'm curious to see if I've just missed out on a decent one somewhere.

I don't "like" any of them, the interfaces are always SO cheesy and poor. But the sound quality and functionality that I get on LinPhone has been top notch.

Linphone as of late hasn't been letting me transfer. It also lacks letters on the keypad, so if I get to a dial by name directory, I'm dead in the water.

You do not know those by heart? I guess maybe too many years of programming alarm systems via the keypad drilled that into my brain as they use the same letter pattern as phones for that.

Nope. My first text-capable cell phone had a full keyboard, and any alarm I've programmed has had a PC interface.
