If your service doesn't use a dedicated on-site device/server to proxy your SIP traffic, every SIP phone will need to be configured separately. Each phone will need a static IP and it's own SIP and RTP ports, just number them sequentially. Then you'll need to port forward every one of those ports to their respective phone IP's. You'd have to set the ports each phone is using in the PBX config.
Of course, you'll need to get this working for one phone first.

Is there a better way to view .psts than opening them up in Outlook and browsing through them that way? Ideally, some sort of program that would go through all of the emails in whatever order (probably date order) with their attachments and turn them into a single .pdf?
Failing that, is there a .pst viewer that makes it easier to look through them digitally?
I'm creating a bootable 64GB Drive using YUMI, and so far I am planning to load:
Windows AIK / PE
Mac OS X Lion Installer
Kaspersky
MemTest86
Derek's Boot & Nuke
I would like to load a live, working Linux install on there too, so I have an OS-on-a-stick. Do you guys have any recommendations along that line for prebuilts? I think Ubuntu has something going? Maybe Fedora?
Do you guys recommend any other bootable utilities I should put on there?
Also, is Windows AIK / PE reverse compatible? The website implies that you can only deploy Win7 builds with it, and we still have XP machines in use that get re-imaged from time to time.
Does anyone here work from home / remotely? I may be getting a chance to do it full-time and I was wondering what I can try to get my company to pay for / tax deduct. I'd be remoting in, so I'd need a PC/internet/etc and while I do have those now, since they are not 100% for work use, do I deduct a percentage? Just try to get them to bump my pay a little as not using company resources?
Or am I just hoping too much?
Note: In Canada.

Does anyone know why explorer starts acting completely stupid in Windows 7?
I've a few machines in the office with rather expansive stats - 7200RPM Sata drives (minimum), i7 processors, 8+GB ram.
But for some reason Explorer goes funny sometimes, most usually in the Users\<user>\Download directory, but occasionally the C:\temp directory.
Most often it manifests itself in the address bar slowly filling up as a progress bar, during which time the explorer window is partially responding (until the bar fills completely, which it rarely does, it just sits with <2 mm of bar to fill and waits) - you can scroll up and down or use the keys to instantly jump to files, but search doesn't work, sorting files by a field (such as date) doesn't work, right clicking files results in the wait cursor the context menu doesn't show, deleting a file shows "Preparing to recycle/delete".
Is this an indexing function? Is it something weird with the hard drives refusing to respond because of the drop protection going haywire? Microsoft security essentials ruining my life? Something else?
Hmm, given the locations you listed and the progress bar thing I'm going to guess you're on the right track with the indexing. Possibly something is interfering with it as it does it, cause it should be able to finish. Are there like, a hojillion tiny files in there?

That might be it then. It could be indexing the contents of the zips as well. And I think for folders like that that it doesn't monitor constantly (unlike your documents or whatever) it will redo it every so often when you open it. You might try adding those locations to the list that it all always indexes and see if that changes.

So...
the IBM technician assigned to my case doesn't know what the IBM ServerGuide Scripting Toolkit is. Didn't believe me that it was an IBM supplied tool. Asked me to link him to the download link.
So here's a fun issue. Every computer in my building (and domain) supposedly is rebooting on Friday night at 8:00 PM.
I have the following in my Event Log:
EventID: 1074
Source: USER32
User: NT Authority\System
Description: The process winlogon.exe has initiated the restart of COMPUTER for the following reason: No title for this reason could be found
Minor Reason: 0xff
Shutdown Type: reboot
It sounds like Automatic Updates, right? Except according to domain policy, they are scheduled daily at 3:00 AM and are set to not reboot or install updates that require reboot if a user is logged on. This event is shutting down on all of my users during the worst time possible. I checked places like EventID.net and it didn't really have anything that seemed similar.
Any ideas?

Urgh.
If it isn't connected to the network does it shut down?
If you set the time on a computer to 7.58 does it shutdown once 8 rolls around?
If it's on the network but you enable a firewall to block everything incoming (but not outgoing) does it happen?
Can you run wireshark on the machine for the 5 minutes before shutdown to see if you can at least figure out where the command is coming from (assuming it's coming from a network machine/remote command )?
If you join a new machine to the domain does it happen? If you join a new machine but prevent it from inheriting group policy?
Could some joker have scripted whatever the non-interactive equivalent of shutdown -i, select everything in the domain, restart?
Obviously by "it" I mean a specific computer on which you are running tests.

So... what the fuck is a sharepoint server? It appears to just be a file/information sharing web server?
It can be lots of things.
Wiki, document management server, collaboration tool, document library, replacement for public folders, other stuff.
But yes, at its base it is a file/information management web server - it does other things with that information, it can intelligently react to changes based on what you tell it to do, it can perform automated functions, it has a clever indexer and search service and no end of other things.
It is also 10 million times more complicated than it sounds from just the description of its capabilities.

It could be antivirus software going nuts for whatever reason. Another a good candidate is SuperFetch, which has probably decided that it needs to fill that 8 gb of RAM with a lot of the files you're about to use - even though it assigns background priority to the task, it still ends up hanging everything else because you spend a lot of time waiting for the disk to respond.
As far as I can tell the only solution is to get an SSD.
EDIT: Just noticed you said MSE. Basically what I think happens is that indexing opens all the files to index them, then MSE scans all those files, and then superfetch decides that all this activity on these files means they should be moved into RAM, and then everything dies because the hard disk is doing a bazillion little file accesses.
So, this DCWG thing has been all over the news. Maybe I've been playing too much of The Secret World, but I'm hesitant to hit the site.

When running this SATA HDD the OS was initially installed with AHCI enabled. Now I want to run this HDD in IDE mode, which means I need to find a way to disable AHCI. If I don't, when I switch to IDE mode, I get a blue screen. I can't seem to find any information on DISABLING ACHI, but a ton of information on how to enable it. Any tips?
I found the AHCI registry key (iaStore.sys) and I set the "Start" DWORD to 0, which I thought would disable it.
Anyone got a favorite router for doing public wifi setups? I've been using the ASUS RT-N12 with DD-
WRT, but I've had a few fail recently so I'm thinking about a change. The people that put these in are concerned about teens finding boobs on the internet, so I've been using OpenDNS. DD-WRT is nice because you can block DNS requests if they try to get around it.
Also, some of the buildings I've put these in are huge and the wiring isn't that great ("100' of wall? No need to put power anywhere on this!"). I'm also looking for some AP's, and I'm thinking that PoE might be nice. That way after I run my network cables (which I'd have to do anyway) I don't have to try to find power. Anyone have a favorite?
I'm trying to clone 1 new machine to an older one we have. I did a mksysb to tape, booted up the old machine from the tape and just when it starts to install I get
"load volume #2 and hit enter" (there is only the 1 tape so I try hitting enter here)
Then i get a system out of memory malloc() failed.

Can anybody recommend a good vacuum/blower to clean computers/servers internals with?
Unfortunately the "temporary" location the consultant decided on last year for our brand new server rack became permanent since the cost to move it to our proper server room is $12k+. The temporary location is just an electrical closet with no temperature control, and no air filtering of any kind (the rack is just coated in dust .)
I had our engineering department rig in a filter of some kind, but the dust is already there, and I will have to power down every unit in the rack and clean it out (the tape drive/loader has already failed twice in about a year due to the dust.) Almost everything is fully redundant in the rack (except the two SANs which will have to be blown out through any vents they have I guess.)
So yeah... now that i'm done venting. Vacuum ideas?

Can anyone point me in the right direction as to why the "Repair" option isn't showing up in Windows XP? Some places are saying that it's a corrupted Registry Hive, and others are telling me to run a Live Linux distro and do a partition repair. I have been spending all damn day JUST to get this stupid thing to repair and nothing has worked so far.
Why not reinstall then. It usually pops up right when the CD runs up. "Hit F3 to run repair" or whatever.
If you're spending 8 hours trying to repair, chances are it's better to spend 2 to reformat.
The thing is that this computer also holds one of our production software. So I'd rather not just wipe it... at least not without talking to the guy who is working on this machine (who happens to be out today). I think I'm going to look around for a used HDD that we're not using and just put it on there because this is just fucking stupid.
In case anyone wants to point and laugh at me: Apparently the OS that was on the HDD was Home Edition and I was using Pro. I didn't even think businesses actually BOUGHT Windows XP Home Edition. My fault, I guess, for assuming.
