Now, can anyone point me to some good docs about AD and domain style networking? I needs to learn, and I didn't bring my networking stuff from home 'cause I'm 'tarded.

My main home server is currently a Compaq DL380 G2. Gotta love 2x1.266GHz and 4 gigs of ram.
Better yet, I did not have to pay a dime for it...

Sweet indeed. Mmmm.

Anyone know of any video encoding software that's multithreaded? Excepting FlaskMpeg of course.

Quad Xeon 550s.
1GB RAM (think it goes up to 4GB, but no docs came w/ it).
3x 18GB SCSI-3 HDs.
Dual RAID controllers, plus SCSI on the mobo.
4 Intel server NICs.
$2800US.
Compared to what we used to use, this is geek heaven.
Can I run Ars Testbench on that sucker? :biggrin:

Nice system for a NICE price. I am trying to convince my company to let me take home and BORROW one of the 5 8500's they have in storage. New in the box.
Can you say:
8 Xeon III @ 700mhz
8 GB ram
2 18.2 GB 15K SCSI drives for the OS (RAID of course)
2 36.4 GB 15K SCSI drives for data
5300 RAID controller with 128mb of cache
2 dual port 64bit PCI gigabit ethernets...
Now mind you the company paid nearly 110K for these a pop in this config. ALL of them have been sitting in storage now for almost 7 months doing nothing but sitting in the box....

Oh, and to add nothing to this thread: I don't have any dually boxes, not even legacy. :(

Forgot to add that the PowerEdge has 64-bit PCI slots (4 outta 7, IIRC).
Win2K Server is running on it right now. How does one run Ars Testbench on it, and where does one obtain a compiled x86 binary? I've not looked in on the pertinent thread in some time, and I don't really wanna dig through it right now.
Side note: Installed BeOS 4.5 on my aforementioned dual P2-266. Had to swap the vid card for one that had built-in drivers, now just gotta dig up a compatible NIC. This box wasn't serving any real porpose; now it runs an OS with no real purpose. ;)
