    Running an Exchange server etc

    Thanks for the feedback everyone. Unfortunately I had already suggested Google and the response was that the calendar just didn't measure up compared to the the Outlook calendar. Things may have improved since then so perhaps we'll take another look. Is it the suggestion to use Gmail's pop...

    Running an Exchange server etc

    This is sort of off-topic but I think it probably fits this forum best. I'd like to explain my situation and just see if anyone has any suggestions or better ideas. I provide volunteer IT support for a private school where my partner is the manager. They have about 12 users on a Windows...

    Coldfusion MX 7

    They mapped existing cfm URLs to ASP.NET to avoid breaking bookmarks. Here's some info about it. ScottGu's Blog : Handling 1.5 Billion Page Views Per Day Using ASP.NET 2.0

    SQL Connection String Problem

    I think you want Integrated Security=False. True means Windows security rather than SQL security. My strings for DotNetNuke don't have an Integrated Security setting at all so I guess it defaults to False. Cheers Ross

    test your medium trust config

    I had a play and reproduced your problem. It seems to be related to Directory.SetCurrentDirectory(). I don't think you really need to use that. Directory.CreateDirectory() works just fine if you give it an absolute path. Its also nice that you can give it a long path and it creates the...

    ASP.NET & W3C Validation

    I had a look at your output using SamSpade. The asp page contains this http header: Content-Type: text/html The aspx page has this. Content-Type: text/html; charset=utf-8 The problem doesn't occur with asp because the meta data is the only place this is defined. I guess there...

    ASP.NET Application under subdirectory ?

    I think you need to open a ticket to get support to define that directory as an application.

    How to call strong-named assemblies from medium trust code

    I don't have any bright ideas except did you try doing the thing with ILMerge described in the "Further reading" link? At least now I know why some things insist on full trust when it doesn't seem necessary. A few days ago I tried using the Report Viewer control on Jodo for a local report (ie...

    A different name for SQL Server user

    I don't think you can really blame HSphere much for this. It makes a lot of sense to force db and user names into a standard format on shared hosting. If everyone simply chose their own name then what happens if two people want the same name? I guess you can have first come, first served but...

    mail from php page

    I think you could be in trouble with membername because there is nothing stopping someone submitting a multi-line value. The spammers will use their own form or software that simulates a form. To see what I mean, try a form where the member name input tag is changed to a textarea and then...

    mail from php page

    I don't want to sound like the code police but a word of warning about something that got me into trouble at another host. If your $dscheaders variable is dependent on user input then make sure you're not open to a header injection attack. A common thing is to create a "From:" header using...

    url rewriting

    I know this doesn't help if your client has fixed requirements but, for what its worth, you can do rewriting in .NET without special help from the host. An HttpModule is just a piece of .NET code that can be installed and configured like any other. This is how DotNetNuke does it (and another...

    Comcast Forwards

    But won't the spammers just include a bogus X-originating-IP header pointing to a not-blocked (but soon to be blocked) server?

    Very Slow FTP in FrontPage and Expressions

    I wonder if the FTP transfer is actually slow or is it because FP or EWD is still trying to do a FP publish type action where it gets a directory listing of all files so that it can figure out which files have changed. That has got to be slow on FTP if its doing it recursively. FWIW, there is...

    Front Page Dec 1st.

    I agree, I also had a quick play with the EWD beta and it does look pretty good.

    MS Access to SQL Server gone bad - please help!

    I have some CF experience and did a quick Google search. Here's a thread talking about the same thing: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg168459.html Not that it helps much but it seems that your application unfortunately uses the CFUPDATE tag which can be a time...

    A adequate response?

    It sounds like this is a Windows VPS. Just a thought, but why are you running MySQL on your VPS when you get 4 or more external MySQL databases that don't use any resources on your VPS. Ross

    ASPMail STMP Server?

    If you want to avoid buying a component then you can probably use cdosys which is built-in and free. http://www.w3schools.com/asp/asp_send_email.asp or lots more http://www.google.com/search?q=asp+cdosys Cheers Ross

    How do I xfer existing site from Win to UNIX?

    Thanks Timruns, that's exactly what I've do for the mail. I have a VPS at another host and since this guy is only using forwarding, no mailboxes, it was easy to route his mail elsewhere with a custom MX. I did that yesterday so by tonight a good 30 hours or so will have passed so I can move the...

    How do I xfer existing site from Win to UNIX?

    Okay, thanks. So what happens when mail hits the old server after the move? I've thought of creating a custom MX and moving mail to a completely different host a few days before the move to get it out the way. Probably not worth the hassle if I know what will happen during the time of...
