Cannot extract due to CRC Error in WinRar FIX

Cannot extract due to CRC Error in WinRar FIX Noticed quite a few gripes about not being able 2 extract Klowns avi's. Heres the workaround, for those who haven't figured it out yet. To extract the file which is said to be 'corrupt' by winrar when the process completes do this: 1. Hit 'extract to' option, and chose destination. 2. Check the 'keep broken files' option under miscellaneous 3. Hit ok. Even though it still gives you the 'CRC file corrupted error', it wont delete the file as a result. [/url] The file is labeled corrupt because some information about the file is lost during the downloading process. And even though u can retry the download, it may likely still be labeled corrupt. For those of you who use the VLC player, (media player that plays ANY music/video file) you can play the .avi while it is still compressed in winrar. Jus open the rar file with it, and it'll play the file flawlessly. (told u it plays EVERYTHING) Check out VLC...

Private IP Address Ranges

Private IP Address Ranges Provide IP Addresses are reserved arranges that are guarantee for internal use only. This allows any network admin assign these address depending on network topology, size of network and desired design method. Private IP addresses are split into clases, while there are more than 3 classes some used for testing, milterary etc. The main class groups are Class A: IP Range - 10.0.0.0 to 10.255.255.255 Class B: IP Range - 172.16.0.0 to 172.31.255.255 Class C: IP Range - 192.168.0.0 to 192.168.255.255 The rules are Class A, 10 identifies the network part and 0.0.0 indicates the host part so we can have 16,777,214 usuable hosts we cannot use 1.1.1 or 255.255.255 Class B, 172.x identifies the network part and 0.0 indicates the host part so we can have 65,534 usuable hosts remember we cannot use 1.1 or 255.255 Class C, 192.168.x indentifies the network part and 0 indicates the host part, so we can have 254 usuable IP's

The Distributed File System Configuration Server 2003

This document will explain what the distrubuted file system is and how to set it up in Windows 2003. After having read it you will have a general idea of why it is used and why you might want to consider making use of it in your organization. Introduction The Distributed File System is used to build a hierarchical view of multiple file servers and shares on the network. Instead of having to think of a specific machine name for each set of files, the user will only have to remember one name; which will be the 'key' to a list of shares found on multiple servers on the network. Think of it as the home of all file shares with links that point to one or more servers that actually host those shares. DFS has the capability of routing a client to the closest available file server by using Active Directory site metrics. It can also be installed on a cluster for even better performance and reliability. Medium to large sized organizations are most likely to benefit from the use of DFS - f...
