VMware allocates IP addresses to network interfaces on "Guest" VMs. I am simulating a small network which would have its own DCHP server.

That would conflict with the way VMware works.

Solution is to disable DHCP service running on Host OS.

Meanwhile, found this Step by Step tutorial for installing FDS (Fedora Directory Server) on Ubuntu. Will attempt that once Ununtu installation is done.

Helping a friend setup things at his small business. He has approx 20 PCs and laptops. And need to unify them in a network.

He needs a Server solution that will take care of basic needs. E.g.:

1. File server + backup
2. Net proxy and filtering
3. User management and Authentication. Like Windows AD

Microsoft Small Business Server seems to be a natural fit. But it costs 35,000 Rs. He can't afford that right now.

So trying to find out some Free and Open Source solution that will not have license cost. PCs already have Windows XP, so not additional cost there either.

Installed Windows XP on a brand new PC, completed setup and launched IE. Default Home page for IE was turning up Error!!! Home page was set to

In 1946 the American Transit Association, through its radio program, "Speak to America," sponsored a nationwide contest to find the REAL Kilroy, offering a prize of a real trolley car to the person who could prove himself to be the genuine article.

Almost 40 men stepped forward to make that claim, but only James Kilroy from Halifax, Massachusetts had evidence of his identity.

1. Always maintain a calm, collected tone

Keep your voice even, keep your tone low, and do not lose your temper. If you find yourself getting upset, place the person on hold for a moment, take a slow, deep breath, and pick the phone back up. If they have hung up on you, mention it when you call back.

2 . Before you call, outline the situation for yourself, and decide how you want it solved

Write down several options you would be willing to accept, and keep the page in front of you when you call.
