    Cisco ASA and Apple IOS VPN with Certificates

    Well we got it working, we're not using the AnyConnect SSL method, we are using the built-in IPSEC method, do no licence required. It turns out that Apple do not trust certificates which have an MD5 based signature, we had to re-generate them with a SHA1 signature, after that it started...

    Cisco ASA and Apple IOS VPN with Certificates

    I haven't seen anything anywhere about a mobile licence for the ASA, it's fully licensed for VPN purposes, is this different? We are using the standard built in IPSEC client, we're not trying to use AnyConnect/SSL so as far as I can tell we don't need another app. Should the CN of the server...

    Cisco ASA and Apple IOS VPN with Certificates

    Hello all, I don't post as often as I should but now I need some help, We have been banging our collective heads together for over a week now on this. We're trying to setup a certificate authenticated IPSEC VPN between Apple IOS devices and a Cisco ASA. The certificates are created...

    Password database tool (Multi user login)

    I don't think the OP said admins... Buisnesses store passwords for all sorts of reasons - think website accounts for business directory listings, purchasing all sorts of things. We use Keepass and it works well for us, if i was looking to spend money on one though i'd be looking for something...

    ZFS or Openfiler or Vail

    Calling All Yamaha AV Receiver Owners

    My yammy seems a bit of a pain when it comes to the surround decoder (DSP-AX620) If you leave surround decode mode off, it will not decode DD/DTS - instead just outputting a 2 channel mix down. If you turn surround encode on, it will correctly decode DD/DTS but also assume everything is...

    Phantom power XLR -> RCA amps

    Isn't that pre-amp designed for turntables? If it is then it will include RIAA EQ correction which is completely wrong for mics. Sounds like you're better off getting either a cheap mixer or a 2 channel mic preamp Somthing like this would do...

    Phantom power XLR -> RCA amps

    If you don't supply phantom power the mics won't work at all. You need either a phantom power injector/supply or pre-amp. http://www.canford.co.uk/Products/20989/20-755_CANFORD-PHANTOM-POWER-SUPPLY-P48-2-channel-AC-mains-powered would be suitable but there are bound to be other possibly...

    Telephone directory

    I've used https://sourceforge.net/projects/php-addressbook/ in the past, it works ok but the DB storage seems to just keep adding records instead of modifying them. It also doesn't let you set a 'display' field for phone numbers - I use the DB and directly lookup numbers for doing CallerID on a...

    Hypothetical situation with finding vulnerabilities in employer's products

    If management or other developers do not like the fact you have found an issue then i'd say you're working for the wrong company! Staff should be actively encouraged to report problems of any sort.

    Phone Lines and Extensions for idiots (ie me)

    Are your lines BT lines directed from a voip provider? If so on your primary line (11111) set the call divert on busy feature (See http://www.britishtelephones.com/btnetwk1.htm - i don't think the codes have changed) and divert to 11112 Set your fax machine not to answer when the line rings...

    Small online buiness accounting software.

    MS have made Money free to use and download see http://www.microsoft.com/en-gb/athome/microsoft-money.aspx Although it will not have any tax rate updates etc. I've heard good things about kashflow (http://www.kashflow.com/) which may be more what you're looking for.

    How do you manage email when staff have multiple roles?

    No exchange for us i'm afraid, looks like what we've been doing (shared accounts/mailboxes) is about the best we're going to get. Opera is looking good as a client, I do like the merged views, however I now need to find a CalDAV plugin for it.

    Project Management software

    What kind of project? We use Redmine for software projects and it works pretty well, it's not suited to other types of projects though really.

    Inventory / Equipment Management SW

    The first release of my project can be found here https://sourceforge.net/projects/diegoinventory/ I'm not going to pretend it's the best thing since sliced bread, but it's solving the need we have with the minimum of fuss. It's also served as a useful learning platform for JS and AJAX...

    How do you manage email when staff have multiple roles?

    This is more a business question than strictly technical - i work in a small company and many of the staff have multiple roles as well as roles being shared. At the moment we largely have individual email accounts plus one group mailbox which has around 15 aliases on it. I'm thinking there...

    Project Management software

    Another vote for Redmine. We've been using it for a couple of years (migrated from Trac) It is best suited to software projects but it does work reasonably well for most things.

    Extending TexTile

    Does anyone know if it's possible to extend the PHP version of TexTile? The reason i'm asking is that i'm writing a custom asset db and in the maintenance logs i'd like to be able to direct link to our issue tracking system (Redmine) using the same markup that redmine uses. So i've used...

    Inventory / Equipment Management SW

    I completed v1 of my db in around 3 hours today. It provides a simple web-based interface which allows equipment to be created/updated and the have log entries attached. It's very basic and unsophisticated but it will do the job very nicely.

    WAN Failover

    You will be routing all internet traffic from the branch office via head office, if you link goes down they will lose internet access. I wouldn't be so happy with that but it depends on what you want. I'd also be looking at using the cisco without NAT but that depends if you're happy with...
