Job Satisfaction

Job Satisfaction is something that so many of us strive for in life. I have had many jobs over the last (many) years. In every one, with the exception of one, I have found a high level of satisfaction. Even as I continue to write this I am not sure which Job that one really was. Job Satisfaction is more a matter of mind over matter, or making the best of it. If you have prepared your self to get into a career, IE education, a bit of luck, experience and such. You sometimes need to make the best of the situation, you sometimes need to realize that perhaps things are not as bad on you may think. I work with several individuals that do not know Job Satisfaction. Player "A" has worked this job long before I joined the group. They feel as though the job has passed them by, they try, but I am not sure how hard they try, and still have trouble keeping up. My lead continually prods me to assist player "A". I have, at times gotten frustrated with this. As you may have dedu...

Google and Google reader

ok, so it worked for about 20 minutes or so yesterday, but this morning it is still not working. For a company as big as google you would think there would be no outage this long. GMail works, Google groups works, Google, reader, calendar, and Documents do not work. other sites seem to work just fine.

Google.com

What is up with Google, I have been having issues with Google.com and Google reader for a few hours. I though it was a DNS issue, but the reader is not working even with ip addresses only.

sandisk sansa m240 froze

ok, so now the SanDisk sansa m240 1GB mp3 player, when you turn it on, it freezes. I have tried to change the battery and everything and it still wont work. What is happening here? others that have had the same problem. I researched this online and found out that there was a rather large bad batch of these mp3 players shipped in December. they suggest calling sandisk tech support at 1-866-726-3475 for a replacement and getting a RMA number or going back to where you bought it and exchanging it. For tech support, call SanDisk at (866) SanDisk—(866) 726-3475—or fill out an online support request at www.sandisk.com/retail/support.asp . SanDisk offers a one-year warranty.

OSPF bounces

Weird Problem between two Cisco devices. On one device we are seeing errors in the log (router A) %OSPF-5-ADJCHG: Process 1, Nbr x.x.x.x on VlanY from EXSTART to DOWN, Neighbor Down: Too many DBD retransmitions %OSPF-5-ADJCHG: Process 1, Nbr x.x.x.x on VlanY from DOWN to DOWN, Neighbor Down: Dead timer expired and on router B the head end router %DTP-SP-5-DOMAINMISMATCH: Unable to perform trunk negotiation on port Gi5/1 because of VTP domain mismatch. %EARL_L3_ASIC-SP-3-INTR_WARN: EARL L3 ASIC: Non-fatal interrupt Packet Parser block interrupt %MLS_STAT-SP-4-IP_LEN_ERR: MAC/IP length inconsistencies Now at first look this would seem to be a physical problem of some sort, we are not able to see any kind of errors, So on some investigation we discovered that the ARP table is not getting updated on the one side of the link. And the sniffer shows (from either side) the pings between the links source with the same IP address no matter where the traffic is coming from?? Then ...

PMTU - PathMTU Discovery

PROBLEM: Slow file transfers and backups with different servers There have been a couple of different issues that I have run into regarding MTU and PMTU. resolve the issue of the server only sending frames off net at only 590 bytes. I have also had this issue relate to disconnects, as the server with the wrong setting get so busy (due to the small packets) that it was not sending acks in a timely fashion. http://www.netheaven.com/pmtu.html Solution: recommended that the servers’ mtusize discovery bit be set to “1”, to prevent 576 bytes and use your full packet size. For Windows XP: From Microsoft: Key: Tcpip\Parameters Value Type: REG_DWORD - Boolean Valid Range: 0,1 (False, True) Default: 1 (True) Description: If you set this parameter to 1 (True), TCP tries to discover the Maximum Transmission Unit (MTU or largest packet size) over the path to a remote host. By discovering the Path MTU and limiting TCP segments to this size, TCP can eliminate fragmentation at routers along the path t...

Sandisk Sansa MP3 Player M240

http://www.mobileplanet.com/f.aspx?i=130057 found a few options that worked on one of these, I have two with the same problem. First I tried this: 1.Go to the settings on the Sandisk MP3 player. 2. Go into the USB menu. 3. Tick the MSC option. Now plug the MP3 player back into your usb port and you will now be able to see the music files! That Cleared the issue one time, on one player. To delete the files, I needed to go into my mp3 itself. 1.) Go into the player, and go to the settings. 2.) Find where it says to reset the settings to default. 3.) Reset them and plug the player back into the computer. 4.) Search for the Music folder and the songs should show up. Going to try it now on the profile for that MP3 player.

Sandisk Sansa M240 problem

I have a sandisk Sansa M240 MP3 Player, and I am having an issue with it. I first loaded just a few songs to it, and then later I loaded it up full. Before the second time it Window Media Player gave an error indicating that it did not recognized the files already loaded on there, (something like there must have been loaded from another PC). two choices, one was to leave them, the other was to delete them. I chose to delete them and it said it did, however they are actually loaded on the device still. and WMP does not recognize them at all. I have search the web over and found no solution. The music is just stuck on there! I did upload Firmware since and it did not help at all. if anyone has any suggestions, I would appreciate hearing them. see my updated entry to help you correct this problem
