Sorry for the long gap in time, but many other pressing issues came up, not the least of which were medical in nature...  But, back to the topic at hand…  I finally managed to get the financing for the public IPv6 address space taken care of at work (it wasn't the amount mind you, just the paperwork which is the real pain as ...

I mentioned that the TR hub in my network had a story behind it...  Well, here it is.  My network is made up of castoffs and other people's junk, so I don't have the most up-to-date hardware to run things on (like the TR hub :).  Well I was trying to install the MS Vista Beta 2 on an old Compaq Armada E500.  Unfortunately, ...

I created two presentations for work.  I've included an edited version of them here... A technical overview and a short management presentation. Feel free to peruse them.

Haven't posted for a while, been busy with other more pressing issues...  I finally had a bit of time to figure out one of the little niggling details that I wasn't able to get around to earlier on.  PTR records for v6.  Unfortunately, PTR records are a bit ugly, actually a lot ugly especially the way that Microsoft's snap-in for ...

I set up a remote connection over a IPv4 VPN connection to a remote lab.  It took quite a bit of tinkering to get things to work correctly, so I figured I'd share the effort in case somebody else tries to do it. I have a connection with my work lab set up so that I can do testing on remote networks across a slow speed link (as compared to ...

I have a fairly extensive lab that I built to help me simulate a small business environment.  I've rebuilt it so many times that I don't even remember the count.  The network lately has been, more or less, stable as far as the systems themselves go, but I have reworked the network a couple of times recently.  In fact, as I was ...

I've known about IPv6 in the back of my mind for quite some time.  Every now and again I'd go out and take a look at the various sites and blogs to get an idea of where v6 stood in the world of IT, but I never spent much energy on it.  Lately, I've been seeing more articles in trade rags about v6 and related items, so I figured it was ...
