Windows 2000 Server Routing and Remote
Access OR I'd Rather Suck a Dead Toad
and HELP !!!


Windows 2000 Server Routing and Remote
Access OR I'd Rather Suck a Dead Toad
and HELP !!!
10/18/2002 06:19 AM
Windows 2000 Server Routing and Remote Access OR I'd Rather Suck a Dead Toad and HELP !!! Yesterday I wasted an entire day to get close to 0 results. Sigh. Here's the deal. One of our clients, a non-profit, who specializes in placing people with disabilities in jobs asked us recently for some basic networking help. They needed a VPN set up and their internal network needed to have a "bastion" network server added. A bastion network server is a single computer with two network cards through which all Internet traffic passes. It (generally) provides via dhcp the addresses for a local subnet like 192.168.x.y and is the sole outside machine that is exposed on the Internet. [ Good Article on Bastion Networks ] Right now their ISP has provided them with external IP addresses for each of their office computers (and server) and they run ZoneAlarm on each machine to "protect" them. This is one of the more brain dead ways to run an office lan with Internet access and just plain scares the crap out of me. DO NOT DO THIS FOR YOUR OFFICE !!! Their IT guy is one of their staff and NOT a Linux person who does the IT along with being a full time case worker. I convinced him that this was unsafe and we should do it with implementing a basic VPN. He had a licensed copy of Windows 2000 Server and thus began my descent into the land of "I'd rather suck a dead toad". I do know that some folks have had really good luck with using Windows 2000 Server for this type of purpose. I had no luck. None of the options for Windows 2000 Routing and Remote Access worked -- if I got DHCP working then the lan worked only locally and client machines couldn't see the Internet. If I setup the VPN options (as per Microsoft's exact directions) then the server couldn't see the Internet (and stopped responding to external Pings). Oh and just as a warning to others -- INSTALL SERVICE PACK 3 FIRST. I lost a lot of time since I didn't realize the machine was missing service pack 3 and apparently none of this stuff works without SP3. No I can't confirm this with Microsoft's fix list but after doing an SP3 upgrade then and only then did the NAT options begin working. So here's what I'm looking for: Can a single computer running Windows 2000 Server do this? Serve both as a bastion host and as an incoming VPN server? Theoretically it is possible but practically I'm starting to wonder if their setup tools allow it. Exact, step by step directions to do this (if they exist). I've done I can't tell you how many Google queries and there are directions out there --- but they all are hinted at in the tables of contents of different books -- not anything like a good Linux How To document. Alternatives. If Windows 2000 Server isn't a good way to do this then I can drop a dedicated Linux box on site but I'll end up picking up the maintenance burden so low maintenance would be good. One approach I'm considering is a small Linksys hardware firewall between their outside Internet connection and their internal lan to provide the DHCP. These boxes, which are generally used for home networking, are actually quite reliable and since the office only has a fractional, shared T1, would be fast enough. Since these are only in the $70 range now, I can just chuck one in for free as a donation (we're only talking about 5 or 6 machines in the office plus one server). At a minimum this is safer than Zone Alarm. Tip #1: The pain started 1st thing when I got their and neither of the network cards in the bastion host (well the theoretical bastion host) could ping. Standard IBM etherjet cards that worked perfectly before going in this box. Know what fixed them? Just moving the graphics card over one slot and the moving the two network cards over to where the graphics card was. Go figure. Plug and Play ? Try Plug and Pray or as I prefer "Plug and sacrifice a goat". Tip #2: I did expect some problems so I brought along an extra hub with me which I setup immediately. This let the "bastion" host and the IT guy's laptop be isolated from the main network preserving Internet access for everyone else in the office. This way for the 8+ hours that I had to tinker with the beast known as Windows 2000 Server Routing and Remote Access at least Internet access was preserved. Note: They're budget strapped and since we've done one big project for them this fell into the category of free help for good client relations.

Dead pixels instead of dead trees


Dead pixels instead of dead trees 12/22/2004 01:49 AM

I love books, I love browsing stacks, I love libraries, I love Powell's in Portland, I like collecting books, I always have a stack nearby to read, I love looking through picture books, and I love books even though I didn't really become much of a reader until the end of my college years (I never read for fun until then). Plunging into the Internet fed my book addiction further, as I had to read dozens of computer classics to get up to speed and stay ahead of the curve. Every computer desk I've had until recently was flanked by bookshelves loaded with titles.

Earlier this year, I remember hearing Cory Doctorow give a talk about how ebooks were going to rule the world and folks would abandon the printed page for the laptop screen. I thought it was a good talk, but I felt the thesis was a bit ahead of its time. There's really no comparison between curling up with a book and a blanket in front of a fireplace, versus trying to read thousands of words on a screen.

Last weekend I was doing some house cleaning and I kept finding stacks of books. A stack next to the reading chairs. A stack on the coffee table. A stack beside my bed. All these stacks contained books I bought in 2004, but never read. Some, I got halfway through, but even more I got maybe ten pages in. A few I never even cracked open.

When I think back to the last three books I enjoyed, they were all heard on my iPod, while on a road trip. I can't recall the last book I finished in my hands.

I'm going to take a holiday trip soon to a fairly remote location where there's not much to do besides read. I'm going to sit and read the only book I've wanted to read this year, and I have a feeling it might just be one of the last dead tree books I read for a long time.

As much as I didn't agree with Cory back during his E-tech talk, I'm finally realizing it's coming true in my own life. I read thousands of words everyday on my monitors and I rarely take time to read anything on the printed page, and there's no sign of reversal on that trend. The scariest thing for the bookfan inside me is that I don't think it's bad thing, either.

Long live the ebook. Long live the audiobook. So long, dead trees.

Oak Island Mystery


Oak Island Mystery 01/16/2004 11:02 AM
Oak Island is one of the greatest treasur e hunting mysteries of the last 400 years. The Money Pit as it is called, has stirred up a bevy of questions including how this simple pit has alluded treasure hunters and scientists to this day. Some believe that it might be the location of the Holy Grail, stashed by the Templar Knights. Other's believe that it might be the resting place of Sir Francis Bacon's original plays acreditted to William Shakespear. The most common belief is that The pirate Captain Kidd hid his huge stash of gold deep within the pit which accounts for all of the unusual traps. Regardless of the wild speculation there has been evidence to suggest that there is deffinately something in the pit. But not all agree....
