			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>http://support.microsoft.com/kb/978610/</p>
<p>Check the system configuration settings<br />
This problem may occur because the Maximum memory option is selected incorrectly. To fix this, follow these steps:<br />
Click StartCollapse this imageExpand this image, type msconfig in the Search programs and files box, and then click msconfig in the Programs list.<br />
In the System Configuration window, click Advanced options on the Boot tab.<br />
Click to clear the Maximum memory check box, and then click OK.<br />
Restart the computer.<br />
Update the system BIOS<br />
The problem may occur because the system BIOS is outdated. If you have an older computer, the system may be unable to access all the installed RAM. In this case, you have to update the system BIOS to the latest version.</p>
<p>To update the BIOS on the computer, visit the Web site of your computer manufacturer to download the BIOS update. Or, contact your computer manufacturer for help.<br />
Check BIOS settings<br />
The problem may occur because some BIOS settings are incorrect.<br />
Enable the memory remapping feature</p>
<p>Check the BIOS settings to see whether the memory remapping feature is enabled. Memory remapping gives Windows access to more memory. You can enable the memory remapping feature in the BIOS by booting to the system setup. See the User&#8217;s Guide for your computer for instructions on how to boot to system setup on your computer. The name for the memory remapping feature may be different for different hardware vendors. This can be listed as memory remapping, memory extension or something similar. Be aware that your computer may not support the memory remapping feature.<br />
Change the AGP video aperture size in the BIOS settings</p>
<p>Check the BIOS settings to see how much memory you have allocated to AGP video aperture. This is the memory that the system is sharing with the video card that is used for texture mapping and rendering. This memory would not be used by the system, because it is locked by the video card. You can adjust the AGP video aperture size in the BIOS. Standard settings are &#8220;32MB,&#8221;"64MB,&#8221;"128MB,&#8221;and &#8220;Auto.&#8221; After you change this setting in the BIOS, restart your computer, and then check the usable memory. You can test each setting to see which offers the best results.<br />
Check possible issues with the physical RAM<br />
The problem may occur because there are issues on the physical RAM installed.<br />
Check whether you have bad memory modules</p>
<p>To check whether you are experiencing this issue, turn off the computer, unplug the computer, and then swap the order of the memory.<br />
Make sure that the memory arrangement is correct</p>
<p>Refer to the User&#8217;s Guide of the computer to determine in what order the memory modules should be inserted into the memory slots. The system may require you to use specific slots when you are not using all the available slots. For example, the computer has four slots available, but you may have to use slot 1 and slot 3 if you want to use only two memory modules.<br />
Check whether memory standoff cards are used</p>
<p>If you use a memory standoff card to hold multiple memory modules on the computer, the system may require specific configurations for this scenario. Therefore, the usable memory may be less than expected. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Tomcat running as root could be a huge security hole. Linux only allows root to listen to port 80 and 443&#8230;which is why many users of tomcat under Linux run tomcat as root. However, with jscv, the process will start off as root but later on will change ownership to the user tomcat or whatever username you wish. </p>
<p>After doing a few google searches I quickly found bits and pieces to do with configuring Tomcat 6 as a non-root user. So I thought I would try and put together a list of what I did to get this up and running. </p>
<p>1. Download and Install the Linux distro of your choice. I installed Tomcat6 on Fedora 8 Core. After you have Lunix installed its good practice to make sure you have all OS updates applied. </p>
<p>2. Create the user to run tomcat under with useradd tomcat. Issuing this command will create a directory under<br />
/home/tomcat.</p>
<p>3. Download and install Java. Visit http://java.sun.com/products/archive/j2se/6u2/index.html. Select JDK 6, </p>
<p>4. After the download is complete, issue this command to make the file executable chmod 755 jdk-6u2(Version number). </p>
<p>5. Then run the install by issuing ./jdk(version number) </p>
<p>6. Updatedb;locate javac |grep bin</p>
<p>7. Now you need to run the alternatives command to instruct Fedora to recognize Sun&#8217;s JVM.</p>
<p>    alternatives &#8211;install /usr/bin/java java /usr/java/jdk1.6.0_02/bin/java 100<br />
    alternatives &#8211;install /usr/bin/jar jar /usr/java/jdk1.6.0_02/bin/jar 100<br />
    alternatives &#8211;install /usr/bin/javac javac /usr/java/jdk1.6.0_02/bin/javac 100<br />
    /usr/sbin/alternatives &#8211;config java</p>
<p>    Select option 1</p>
<p>    Type java -version</p>
<p> you should see something like this:<br />
java version &#8220;1.6.0_02&#8243;<br />
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_02-ea-b02)<br />
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.6.0_02-ea-b02, mixed mode, sharing)</p>
<p>export JAVA_HOME=/usr/java/jdk1.6.0_02/bin</p>
<p>8. yum Install gcc</p>
<p>9. Download tomcat 6 here http://tomcat.apache.org/download-60.cgi to /home/tomcat. Then Extract the tar file using tar xvzf tomcat6filename.gz to /home/tomcat</p>
<p>10. chown tomcat.tomcat /home/tomcat -R </p>
<p>11. Compile the jscv code by following the instructions here  http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-6.0-doc/setup.html. You may have to issue<br />
export JAVA_HOME=/usr/java/jdk1.6.0_02/bin before you run the ./configure and the make.</p>
<p>12. Create your start and stop script. Navigate to /etc/init.d create a new file by issuing touch tomcat, make the file executable by issuing chmod 755 tomcat.</p>
<p>13. Next issue vim tomcat and copy and paste the config below. You might have to change some of the setting to fit your server.</p>
<p># Tomcat auto-start<br />
#<br />
# description: Auto-starts tomcat<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>We recently updated our Microsoft Exchange Server from 2003 to 2010. As a result of that upgrade we needed to upgrade our Blackberry enterprise server from version 4.6 to version 5.0. Everything went well, I was able to perform an in place upgrade, after moving my SQL database off to a separate database server. I was also able to finally get all BES services to run as a regular Domain user instead of a domain administrator which was a pretty regular practice with previous versions. </p>
<p>In an effort to save someone else a lot of time troubleshooting with RIM, I will say this&#8230;<br />
If you getting ready to upgrade to BES version 5 and you have exchange 2010, please make sure that you have done the following to ensure there are no communications issues between exchange 2010 and the BES.</p>
<p>In order to enable full support, three updates are required: </p>
<p>Roll-Up 1 (RU1) for Exchange Server 2010<br />
MAPI v6.5.8147<br />
BlackBerry Enterprise Server 5.0.1 Maintenance Release 1 (MR1)<br />
All three of these updates are available to customers of Exchange Server 2010 and BlackBerry Enterprise Server v.5.0 with Service Pack 1 at no cost. BlackBerry Enterprise Server v5.0 Service Pack 1 and Maintenance Release 1 can be found here: http://www.blackberry.com/support/downloads </p>
<p>Also this is where to get the upgrade/install guide from RIM</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I needed to configure an SFTP server on a Fedora 8 Core server. To Keep things simple I choose SFTP over VSFTP as I was already running the SSH Daemon for server management. </p>
<p>So if you dont already have the SSH Daemon installed, open a terminal session as root and type</p>
<p>Yum install ssh*</p>
<p>Select Yes to download and install </p>
<p>type cd /etc/ssh</p>
<p>type vi sshd_config  and make sure the config is similar to the one below</p>
<p>#####SSHD_Config######</p>
<p>#	$OpenBSD: sshd_config,v 1.80 2008/07/02 02:24:18 djm Exp $</p>
<p># This is the sshd server system-wide configuration file.  See<br />
# sshd_config(5) for more information.</p>
<p># This sshd was compiled with PATH=/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin</p>
<p># The strategy used for options in the default sshd_config shipped with<br />
# OpenSSH is to specify options with their default value where<br />
# possible, but leave them commented.  Uncommented options change a<br />
# default value.</p>
<p>#Port 22<br />
#AddressFamily any<br />
#ListenAddress 0.0.0.0<br />
#ListenAddress ::</p>
<p># Disable legacy (protocol version 1) support in the server for new<br />
# installations. In future the default will change to require explicit<br />
# activation of protocol 1<br />
Protocol 2</p>
<p># HostKey for protocol version 1<br />
#HostKey /etc/ssh/ssh_host_key<br />
# HostKeys for protocol version 2<br />
#HostKey /etc/ssh/ssh_host_rsa_key<br />
#HostKey /etc/ssh/ssh_host_dsa_key</p>
<p># Lifetime and size of ephemeral version 1 server key<br />
#KeyRegenerationInterval 1h<br />
#ServerKeyBits 1024</p>
<p># Logging<br />
# obsoletes QuietMode and FascistLogging<br />
#SyslogFacility AUTH<br />
#LogLevel INFO</p>
<p># Authentication:</p>
<p>#LoginGraceTime 2m<br />
#PermitRootLogin yes<br />
#StrictModes yes<br />
#MaxAuthTries 6<br />
#MaxSessions 10</p>
<p>#RSAAuthentication yes<br />
#PubkeyAuthentication yes<br />
#AuthorizedKeysFile	.ssh/authorized_keys</p>
<p># For this to work you will also need host keys in /etc/ssh/ssh_known_hosts<br />
#RhostsRSAAuthentication no<br />
# similar for protocol version 2<br />
#HostbasedAuthentication no<br />
# Change to yes if you don&#8217;t trust ~/.ssh/known_hosts for<br />
# RhostsRSAAuthentication and HostbasedAuthentication<br />
#IgnoreUserKnownHosts no<br />
# Don&#8217;t read the user&#8217;s ~/.rhosts and ~/.shosts files<br />
#IgnoreRhosts yes</p>
<p># To disable tunneled clear text passwords, change to no here!<br />
PasswordAuthentication no<br />
#PermitEmptyPasswords no</p>
<p># Change to no to disable s/key passwords<br />
#ChallengeResponseAuthentication yes</p>
<p># Kerberos options<br />
#KerberosAuthentication no<br />
#KerberosOrLocalPasswd yes<br />
#KerberosTicketCleanup yes<br />
#KerberosGetAFSToken no</p>
<p># GSSAPI options<br />
#GSSAPIAuthentication no<br />
#GSSAPICleanupCredentials yes</p>
<p># Set this to &#8216;yes&#8217; to enable support for the deprecated &#8216;gssapi&#8217; authentication<br />
# mechanism to OpenSSH 3.8p1. The newer &#8216;gssapi-with-mic&#8217; mechanism is included<br />
# in this release. The use of &#8216;gssapi&#8217; is deprecated due to the presence of<br />
# potential man-in-the-middle attacks, which &#8216;gssapi-with-mic&#8217; is not susceptible to.<br />
#GSSAPIEnableMITMAttack no</p>
<p># Set this to &#8216;yes&#8217; to enable PAM authentication, account processing,<br />
# and session processing. If this is enabled, PAM authentication will<br />
# be allowed through the ChallengeResponseAuthentication and<br />
# PasswordAuthentication.  Depending on your PAM configuration,<br />
# PAM authentication via ChallengeResponseAuthentication may bypass<br />
# the setting of &#8220;PermitRootLogin without-password&#8221;.<br />
# If you just want the PAM account and session checks to run without<br />
# PAM authentication, then enable this but set PasswordAuthentication<br />
# and ChallengeResponseAuthentication to &#8216;no&#8217;.<br />
UsePAM yes</p>
<p>#AllowAgentForwarding yes<br />
#AllowTcpForwarding yes<br />
#GatewayPorts no<br />
X11Forwarding yes<br />
#X11DisplayOffset 10<br />
#X11UseLocalhost yes<br />
#PrintMotd yes<br />
#PrintLastLog yes<br />
#TCPKeepAlive yes<br />
#UseLogin no<br />
#UsePrivilegeSeparation yes<br />
#PermitUserEnvironment no<br />
#Compression delayed<br />
#ClientAliveInterval 0<br />
#ClientAliveCountMax 3<br />
#UseDNS yes<br />
#PidFile /var/run/sshd.pid<br />
#MaxStartups 10<br />
#PermitTunnel no<br />
#ChrootDirectory none</p>
<p># no default banner path<br />
#Banner none</p>
<p># override default of no subsystems<br />
Subsystem	sftp	/usr/libexec/openssh/sftp-server</p>
<p># This enables accepting locale enviroment variables LC_* LANG, see sshd_config(5).<br />
AcceptEnv LANG LC_CTYPE LC_NUMERIC LC_TIME LC_COLLATE LC_MONETARY LC_MESSAGES<br />
AcceptEnv LC_PAPER LC_NAME LC_ADDRESS LC_TELEPHONE LC_MEASUREMENT<br />
AcceptEnv LC_IDENTIFICATION LC_ALL</p>
<p># Example of overriding settings on a per-user basis<br />
#Match User anoncvs<br />
#	X11Forwarding no<br />
#	AllowTcpForwarding no<br />
#	ForceCommand cvs server</p>
<p>type Esc :wq and enter to close out of the vi editor and save changes</p>
<p>Restart the SSH Daemon by typing service sshd restart</p>
<p>If you have any trouble connecting, you can install Putty http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/</p>
<p>After installing putty, open a windows command window, browse to C:\Program Files (x86)\PuTTY>psftp -v (internal or external server IP address)</p>
<p>I did see a difference between Fedora and Open SuSE with this line in sshd_config, just make sure the path to sftp-server is correct. If your unsure where sftp-server is you can always run a search as find -name &#8216;ftp-server*&#8217; or something like that.</p>
<p>Subsystem   sftp   /usr/libexec/openssh/sftp-server </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>AT&#038;T has released a new iPhone application called Mark the Spot to help AT&#038;T customers report any failures with their service. Having had Verizon for well over 10 years i was relucant to switch to ATT. At the time i was one of the many who were mezmorized by the possibilites of having an iPhone. Im not happy about having to pay $135 a month for two iPhones and having to do ATT network coverage outage detection. I guess if it will help and the app is simple ill do my part&#8230;</p>
