IRRI Internet vey slow for 3 days- Solved !

We don't know the reason or the cause of slowness of our Internet . It may be a virus Conflicter or some thing new. We have 3 ISP ( PLDT Igate, Unet and Internet2 Preginet)
( 10mbps, 2 mbps and 155 mbps). We isolate the problem using the command "PING www.yahoo.com -t" inside and outside the firewall netscreen.
We turn off one by one our Network infrastructure except our main Cisco router 7200. still problem persist. Again our team isolate the problem by connecting a new Gigabit switch , a core router and a laptop. pinging www.yahoo.com still get some RTO but inside the Router its clean and no RTO. We issue the command " SH int summary" and get some anonymous IQD packet loss and other packet loss. So we decided to restart our Core CIsco router 7200 by this command " RELOAD" and we cross our finger and monitor the ping in our Laptop . It take a while to TURN on automatically the core Router. I think 2 times it self turn off and some POS and GIgEth interface to lights ON.
After a while the Router is totally On or idle. We check again the command "Sh int summary" and notice no packet loss its clean all interface is Zero 0 0 0 .
and our ping monitor in laptop are now Ok no RTO .

Now our commodity internet is quite faster now. I recvd an average 226ms in pinging www.yahoo.con in my desktop machine.

Our Network are still under observation ...

OOOppss.. wait .. our Internet2 Route are not properly Routed.. we need to check our BGP configuration.????

Installing Aventail Connect Tunnel Agent into Linux

Create a folder in the target client computer where you would place the downloaded Aventail Connect Tunnel Agent for Linux.

Go to the folder. Download and untar the attached tar file using the following command.

I found the file required here http://wireless.depaul.edu/downloads/AventailConnect-Linux.tar. We may want to stick this on one of our own sites...

tar -xf AventailConnect-Linux.tar

You should see the following files extracted:

AventailConnect-Linux-8.80.146.tar.bz2

install.sh

version

Install the agent with the following command:

sudo /bin/bash install.sh

You should see the following message in your screen:

Installing Aventail Connect 8.8.0.146...
Looking for tun driver... tun is present and correct.
Unpacking archive AventailConnect-Linux-8.80.146.tar.bz2...
Setting up permissions...
Using certificates in /etc/ssl/certs
Done installing Aventail Connect.

Use 'startct' to start Aventail Connect
Use 'startctui' to run the Aventail Connect graphical interface (requires java)
Use 'stopct' to stop Aventail Connect

I had to run 'sudo /bin/bash startct' to start the connection. Works like a charm

You should now be able to connect to the IRRIAD network using Aventail.

My Outlook 2007 finally connects to Exchange 2003 with RPC over HTTPS proxy on Vista.

There is this application called "Windows Easy Transfer" that comes along
with Vista. Its in "All Programs" | "Accessories" | "System Tools" menu.
Among other things, it claims to be able to transfer email settings too. You
might want to give it a try.

Please try the following steps on the Vista client:

Click Start, click Run, type regedit in the Open box, and then click OK.

Locate and then click the following subkey:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\12.0\Outlook\RPC

On the Edit menu, point to New, and then click DWORD Value.

Type DefConnectOpts, and then press ENTER.

Right-click DefConnectOpts, and then click Modify.

In the Value data box, type 0, and then click OK.

Exit Registry Editor.

Please restart the client machine, re-configure the Outlook profile, and try again log on via RPC over HTTP

Again, my Vista setups did not have the RPC key on the computer. So, I created the key, created the value and rebooted the computer. Deleted the old outlook profile, created a new one and tested. This time it worked.

See How SIXTH SENSE works...

A father put his three year old daughter to bed, told her a story and listened to her prayers which she ended by saying "God bless Mommy, God bless daddy, God bless grandma and good-bye grandpa."

The father asked, "Why did you say good-bye grandpa?"

The little girl said, "I don't know daddy, it just seemed like the thing to do."

The next day grandpa died.

The father thought it was a strange coincidence.

A few months later the father put the girl to bed and listened to her prayers, which went like this: "God bless Mommy, God Bless daddy and good-bye grandma."

The next day the grandmother died.

Oh my god, thought the father, this kid is in contact with the other side.

Several weeks later when the girl was going to bed the dad heard her say, "God bless Mommy and good-bye daddy."

He practically went into shock. He couldn't sleep all night and got up at the crack of dawn to go to his office. He was nervous as a cat all day, had lunch sent in and watched the clock. He figured if he could get by until midnight he would be okay. He felt safe in the office, so instead of going home at the end of the day he stayed there, drinking coffee, looking at his watch and jumping at every sound. Finally midnight arrived, he breathed a sigh of relief and went home.

When he got home his wife said "I've never seen you work so late, what's the matter?" He said "I don't want to talk about it, I've just spent the worst day of my life."

She said "You think you had a bad day, you'll never believe what happened. This morning our neighbour James dropped dead on our porch."

Japan: Fish Spa

A number of new health and beauty treatments have been introduced into health spas around the world over the past few years including bathing in beer, chocolate massages and red wine face masks. But a spa in Japan has gone the extra mile and introduced a treatment known as 'doctor fish'. It features hundreds of tiny specially bred fish and is for the removal of dead skin from people's feet.
