Coldie is pretty ****, but not as bad as me.

I have Road Runner Cable and also a Fractional T-1

I have the Cable going into Cisco 2600. Then it hits a linux router which acts as a mail server and router running Free BSD.

It then shoots through a Linksys router into a domain controller running Win2k AS. That box has a raid 5 stuffed with a couple of 15K Fujitsu SCSI 160 drives planed off to 1 gig cache. I too have a DVD writer, 2 CDRW's, 3 other SCSI drives and 4 Maxtor 160gig IDE's that hold ghost images and various other crapola.

I have a secondary server that is just for PDQing of images and various data. It runs Win2k Server.

Rest of the machines a * nix variants and WinXp's

The fractual t-1 goes through a 2600, then another BSD based firewall. Its slotted for a single computer that is not on a network. Its a SCO Unix box.

If it was a Viri Nort Corp 8 would of found it immediately.

Just do what we talked about and all should be good.

O_o

Other then "just because it was there" or "build it and they will come", is there any reason you actually did all that or do you run a home computer business? On the topology note, why bother with the second-tier linksys, the Wnk2K server would have routed that traffic just fine, you can't saturate it with an outbound of cable/T1. :P

I don't keep that much at home, most of my stuff is at the datacenter... I just go cable->edge router/firewall->switch, then I have 7 nodes off the switch (1 pc, 1 mac, 1 linux, 1 sparc, 1 WAN A/G access point, 2 printers)... Got a couple things linked wirelessly, PS2, Dreamcast, laptop...

Well Daniel, i know your job revolves around network security. My job revolves around Domestic Security. Information that i have at home must be protected to the highest level possible. The linksys is used as a switch only, not as a router. BTW. Depending on what information i need or have to save, depends on which server is booted. 90% of the time, i work from my SCO box, aside from the WinXP on the laptop i use to play with on here.

Cool... I was just curious... So you work for "Homeland Sec" or do private contracting for companies? I've been thinking of moving out of the finance sector, seeing what other areas out there might be interesting.

Yes because of the way it works - By recovering data that has not been written over it only allows you to write the recovered data to a physically separate disk. I think I have used a network drive before...

Send me the drive and I can recover your data and I'll do it on the arm. Let me know. Email me at erf@lancorps.net

If my efforts at recovering the data don't work, I might just do that.

What's funny is I used to run a Dell Inspiron 8000 and this server with a lot of redundancy. Didn't have any fears if one took a crap since both the Dell and my server had the same 30 gigs of "important stuff."

A couple of weeks ago, my Dell's HD started clicking on startup.

Now this!

My goal here is going to be this:

Purchase a new case (probably full tower, Antec 400-430 PS). Relocate most of my current hardware to that case. Purchase a new Nforce or KT600 mobo, Barton CPU, new sticks of RAM, SATA controller, SATA drives (at least 2), *maybe* redundant power supplies, and new vcard and scard.

Wish I could afford SCSI but I can't. That above setup will run around 800 bucks but it'll be worth it. Plus, I'll get a router, setup a more secure LAN, and then see if I can recover my lost data. I'll be running XP Corp and Norton 8 Corp on both computers. Then I've been thinking about that new VAIO 505 . I have a dual P3 600B setup in my closet collecting dust that I may resurrect too just for a backup data server. It's has a P7 Supermicro board, 512 of sdram...archaic stuff that I may put to use.

Only problems are time constraints, hair-pulling frustration, and $$$ of course.

Cyntaxx, don't fret too much about it. No matter how much you research it, in 3 months it'll be old school anyway. It seems to me you need to worry about a trouble free way to backup your schtuff.

BTW, do you think your computer dump cause both reflash threads to go POOF! as well?

Jim

Yea I'm sure my plans will change. I just don't like having all this on my plate: computers and Lightning mods. The former is cheaper but the latter is more rewarding.

Ahhh we'll see.
