Junk mail volumes - which reached 90 per cent last summer - are down to 75 per cent this summer, net security firm Symantec reports. The 15 percentage points drop in spam has led to a 60 per cent decrease in total email volumes, helping reduce network congestion and server load in the process. Symantec reports that junk mail volumes that reached a high of 230 billion spam messages per day in July 2010, 90 per cent of all email traffic, are down to 39.2 billion messages per day, 72.9 per cent of all email. ...

(1000x and more...) The Cassandra (NoSQL) database (http://cassandra.apache.org/) might be one of the best choices in this genre as it has the support of the big players like FaceBook, IBM, Apache etc... There is also an ever expanding group of experts and help forums (http://cassandra-user-incubator-apache-org.3065146.n2.nabble.com/) on this subject. To add to the functionality there is the new super scaling and searching tools called HPCC (http://gigaom.com/cloud/lexisnexis-open-sources-its-hadoop-killer/) which uses a combination of SQL and NoSQL when searching distributive data and clusters of data servers. In your future plans it might well be worth considering such an option especially as your data requirements and expected results continues to grow.

I wonder if anyone has something that can do the same for WMA files rather than MP3 files (i.e. walk the selected folder and all its subfolders and slide all found entries into a folder listing all the tracks' attributes in a spreadsheet; or even better, directly into a spreadsheet). All these requirements said, what said Folder-Walker is likely to find are numerous entries of the same title(s). Most often this occurs in the Classical and Jazz genres, and occasionally in R&R covers, though that is the slimmest case. Much more likely, the Walker would find several (about 9 and counting) versions of various Beethoven, Mozart, Mingus, Monk tunes, and some of these are "crossover", as when Kronos Quartet plays Monk. I have about 20GB of music recorded, which falls into several broad genres, the least-populated of which is "Recent Pop" -- not to cast aspersions on this sector of the music world, but simply to say that I have about 20 recordings on file of "The Rite of Spring", "The Four Seasons", "Cello Sonatas by Beethoven", and not to mention about 200 CDs worth of classical Indian music which are of interest by Rag/Tal/Players. All of this is recorded as WMAs. So the questions are two: 1. Can I convert these to MP3, and in said conversion is anything (other than complicity with the spreadsheet) achieved. Lossiness is not an option. 2. Is there some way to catalog all these WMA files into an XL spreadsheet or Access db and grab all the salient documentation features? Forgive me for choosing the Windows default. I am prepared to convert all the WMA files to MP3 but don't know how. But I would like to catalog that .5 TB of music that occupies space on my Hard Disks, and to create a catalog so that I can do things like search for every occurrence of "Martha My Dear" or "Epistrophy" or :"Coltrane" or "Piano Sonatas" and auto-create lists of all these tracks by genre, composer, etc. Can anyone provide help in how to do this?

We have two locations but no fancy fibre WAN connection, just plain public ADSL at 10/1 Mbit/s. The two locations each have an "outer" LAN to manage the eight public IP addresses each place. At each place, one IP address is NAT'ed to the "inner" LAN via a Draytek router. These two Draytek routers have an internal VPN connection (takes minutes to set up and works extremely reliable) connecting the two inner LANs. We have used 192.168.1.0 and 192.168.10.0 respectively. The two inner LANs are configured as Sites in our Active Directory. Now, with two 2003/2008 servers (must be version R2), one at each site, you can set up DFS with replication. This is true replication. Files and directories added/changed/renamed/deleted at one site is at once (as line speed allows) delta-replicated to the other site. Small files nearly at once, GB-sized ISO DVD-images an a couple of days(!) given the bandwidth you allow the service to consume. Of course, Access files holding data can only be used at one site at a time. And _every_ file and AD security attribute is replicated as well. The only major change from the default settings we have done is to raise the disk cache from 4 to 8 GB because of the ISO images. DFS includes virtual folders which means that the user doesn't see which file server is attached. For example, at site North a shared folder is serveralfa\data and its replica at site south is serverbeta\data. These are linked to "\\cactus.dom\cactus data\data" which is what the user connects to, like (where cactus.dom is our internal domain): \\cactus.dom\cactus data\data\document for drive R: The clever part is, that AD sees at which site the user logs in, and then attaches the nearest (on-site) server for that share, thus at site North that would behind the scene be \\serveralfa\data\document. However, if this server is down, you can set up DFS to let the user attach another server in the pool, here serverbeta. When serveralfa is online again, replication will bring it up to date asap. I would never have thought that I would have to do VBScript but, as you may know, this is the default language for logon scripts etc. in Windows Server 2000+. For some reason, we couldn't get IE - and thus Windows - to automatically retrieve the local domain to the list of Intranet domains. This is necessary to avoid the pop-up warning about "dangerous files" whenever you attach a file on the share. Thus I created (by copy and paste from several sources) this script to force that: Option Explicit ' Retrieve current AD domain and add it to the Intranet domains ' as listed in Internet Explorer security settings. ' 2011-07-12. Cactus Data ApS, CPH. ' Main script Const HKEY_CURRENT_USER = &H80000001 Dim strDomainDNSName ' Retrieve current AD domain. strDomainDNSName = GetCurrentDomainDNSName() If Len(strDomainDNSName) >= 3 Then ' Append the AD domain to the list of Intranet domains. AddIntranetDomain(strDomainDNSName) End If ' End script ' -------------------------------------------------- Private Function GetCurrentDomainDNSName() Dim objADSysInfo Set objADSysInfo = CreateObject("ADSystemInfo") GetCurrentDomainDNSName = objADSysInfo.DomainDNSName Set objADSysInfo = Nothing End Function Private Sub AddIntranetDomain(strSubKey) Dim objReg Dim strComputer Dim strKey Dim strKeyPath Dim strValueName Dim dwValue strKey = "Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\ZoneMap\Domains" strComputer = "."

Actually, none of the members of the list has ever occurred to me as a potential password. Before I started using special characters in my password, my choice was SuperMan, camel case intended. I inherited that one from a company for which I once worked. But this discussion raises another deep question. How can one crack passwords? I recall reading somewhere in some book about hacking, that the first thing they did was import a text file from some dictionary site, and thereafter pipe the contents into the Login screen. Most of the time, it is alleged, it worked. I refined this basic rule to substitute the arithmetic equivalent for each vowel in the word, so that Arthur would become 1rth20r. SarahB would become S1r1hB, according to this scenario. And so on.

Control Panel > Network connections > Advanced > Advanced Setting > ... and you should see a list of all your network connections in their order of selection. If your VPN connection is active and first, in the list, that will be the first choice when your computer is starting up. But note: If you are connecting to a local computer and the system deems that one connection is more efficient than another it will default. (I have observed this... for example; on a laptop, went more than one connections option is available; a connected cable will be the choice even though wireless option is the first in the list.) If you wish to guarantee only the VPN connection would be used when more that one choice is physically and actively available the other competing option may have to be temporarily turned off. As my work laptop is a rover it has almost a dozen choices for various clients and most of them are usually turned off.

Junk mail volumes - which reached 90 per cent last summer - are down to 75 per cent this summer, net security firm Symantec reports. The 15 percentage points drop in spam has led to a 60 per cent decrease in total email volumes, helping reduce network congestion and server load in the process. Symantec reports that junk mail volumes that reached a high of 230 billion spam messages per day in July 2010, 90 per cent of all email traffic, are down to 39.2 billion messages per day, 72.9 per cent of all email. ...

(1000x and more...) The Cassandra (NoSQL) database (http://cassandra.apache.org/) might be one of the best choices in this genre as it has the support of the big players like FaceBook, IBM, Apache etc... There is also an ever expanding group of experts and help forums (http://cassandra-user-incubator-apache-org.3065146.n2.nabble.com/) on this subject. To add to the functionality there is the new super scaling and searching tools called HPCC (http://gigaom.com/cloud/lexisnexis-open-sources-its-hadoop-killer/) which uses a combination of SQL and NoSQL when searching distributive data and clusters of data servers. In your future plans it might well be worth considering such an option especially as your data requirements and expected results continues to grow.

I wonder if anyone has something that can do the same for WMA files rather than MP3 files (i.e. walk the selected folder and all its subfolders and slide all found entries into a folder listing all the tracks' attributes in a spreadsheet; or even better, directly into a spreadsheet). All these requirements said, what said Folder-Walker is likely to find are numerous entries of the same title(s). Most often this occurs in the Classical and Jazz genres, and occasionally in R&R covers, though that is the slimmest case. Much more likely, the Walker would find several (about 9 and counting) versions of various Beethoven, Mozart, Mingus, Monk tunes, and some of these are "crossover", as when Kronos Quartet plays Monk. I have about 20GB of music recorded, which falls into several broad genres, the least-populated of which is "Recent Pop" -- not to cast aspersions on this sector of the music world, but simply to say that I have about 20 recordings on file of "The Rite of Spring", "The Four Seasons", "Cello Sonatas by Beethoven", and not to mention about 200 CDs worth of classical Indian music which are of interest by Rag/Tal/Players. All of this is recorded as WMAs. So the questions are two: 1. Can I convert these to MP3, and in said conversion is anything (other than complicity with the spreadsheet) achieved. Lossiness is not an option. 2. Is there some way to catalog all these WMA files into an XL spreadsheet or Access db and grab all the salient documentation features? Forgive me for choosing the Windows default. I am prepared to convert all the WMA files to MP3 but don't know how. But I would like to catalog that .5 TB of music that occupies space on my Hard Disks, and to create a catalog so that I can do things like search for every occurrence of "Martha My Dear" or "Epistrophy" or :"Coltrane" or "Piano Sonatas" and auto-create lists of all these tracks by genre, composer, etc. Can anyone provide help in how to do this? In the ideal world, I would end up with an Access db which I could then export|import into anything I want, from an initial destination of XL or CSV or other format.

The program and web BE is only designed (at this time) to support a small business of say 25 direct users. The one benefit is that the application core, being on the web, is that in theory, it is impervious to office crashes and will require no local tech support.

We have two locations but no fancy fibre WAN connection, just plain public ADSL at 10/1 Mbit/s. The two locations each have an "outer" LAN to manage the eight public IP addresses each place. At each place, one IP address is NAT'ed to the "inner" LAN via a Draytek router. These two Draytek routers have an internal VPN connection (takes minutes to set up and works extremely reliable) connecting the two inner LANs. We have used 192.168.1.0 and 192.168.10.0 respectively. The two inner LANs are configured as Sites in our Active Directory. Now, with two 2003/2008 servers (must be version R2), one at each site, you can set up DFS with replication. This is true replication. Files and directories added/changed/renamed/deleted at one site is at once (as line speed allows) delta-replicated to the other site. Small files nearly at once, GB-sized ISO DVD-images an a couple of days(!) given the bandwidth you allow the service to consume. Of course, Access files holding data can only be used at one site at a time. And _every_ file and AD security attribute is replicated as well. The only major change from the default settings we have done is to raise the disk cache from 4 to 8 GB because of the ISO images. DFS includes virtual folders which means that the user doesn't see which file server is attached. For example, at site North a shared folder is serveralfa\data and its replica at site south is serverbeta\data. These are linked to "\\cactus.dom\cactus data\data" which is what the user connects to, like (where cactus.dom is our internal domain): \\cactus.dom\cactus data\data\document for drive R: The clever part is, that AD sees at which site the user logs in, and then attaches the nearest (on-site) server for that share, thus at site North that would behind the scene be \\serveralfa\data\document. However, if this server is down, you can set up DFS to let the user attach another server in the pool, here serverbeta. When serveralfa is online again, replication will bring it up to date asap. I would never have thought that I would have to do VBScript but, as you may know, this is the default language for logon scripts etc. in Windows Server 2000+. For some reason, we couldn't get IE - and thus Windows - to automatically retrieve the local domain to the list of Intranet domains. This is necessary to avoid the pop-up warning about "dangerous files" whenever you attach a file on the share. Thus I created (by copy and paste from several sources) this script to force that: Option Explicit ' Retrieve current AD domain and add it to the Intranet domains ' as listed in Internet Explorer security settings.

AddIntranetDomain(strDomainDNSName) End If ' End script ' -------------------------------------------------- Private Function GetCurrentDomainDNSName() Dim objADSysInfo Set objADSysInfo = CreateObject("ADSystemInfo") GetCurrentDomainDNSName = objADSysInfo.DomainDNSName Set objADSysInfo = Nothing End Function Private Sub AddIntranetDomain(strSubKey) Dim objReg Dim strComputer Dim strKey Dim strKeyPath Dim strValueName Dim dwValue strKey = "Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\ZoneMap\Domains" strComputer = "."

Actually, none of the members of the list has ever occurred to me as a potential password. Before I started using special characters in my password, my choice was SuperMan, camel case intended. I inherited that one from a company for which I once worked. But this discussion raises another deep question. How can one crack passwords? I recall reading somewhere in some book about hacking, that the first thing they did was import a text file from some dictionary site, and thereafter pipe the contents into the Login screen. Most of the time, it is alleged, it worked. I refined this basic rule to substitute the arithmetic equivalent for each vowel in the word, so that Arthur would become 1rth20r. SarahB would become S1r1hB, according to this scenario. And so on.

I am obviously doing something wrong here.

However, as you sit at an Active Directory, the server to address will have a hostname which could be like serverxyz.qub.ac.local and would be preferable to use. Also, access from your workstation must have been granted.

Control Panel > Network connections > Advanced > Advanced Setting > ... and you should see a list of all your network connections in their order of selection. If your VPN connection is active and first, in the list, that will be the first choice when your computer is starting up. But note: If you are connecting to a local computer and the system deems that one connection is more efficient than another it will default. (I have observed this... for example; on a laptop, went more than one connections option is available; a connected cable will be the choice even though wireless option is the first in the list.) If you wish to guarantee only the VPN connection would be used when more that one choice is physically and actively available the other competing option may have to be temporarily turned off. As my work laptop is a rover it has almost a dozen choices for various clients and most of them are usually turned off.
