I hate it when there’s a conference room full of people, one of our folks is all ready to do a presentation using our website and suddenly, for no obvious reason, the network port in there just seems to die. Luckily I have a 100 foot Ethernet cable so I just ran the connection over to the next room and put them back in business, but at some point I’m going to have to figure out why that port stopped responding all of the sudden. Here’s hoping it a bad port on the switch, which I can route around, and not something “in the walls”, which gets a tad more complicated, especially since we don’t have those fake floors and ceilings. The cabling is, literally, in the walls!

    Maybe. I found another machine that sends emails like mine does. They always go through and they push or drag the other emails with them. Once I found that, it was simply a matter of figuring out what my machine and that one have in common that others don’t. Well, it’s one of the new…
