He's saying dont use AOL.

Haha thats good!

Found the problem, they were vmeare virtual interfaces which ive now disabled as i have no need for them! Jack Dunn

Nope still not working for me

In DNS on Windows 2003 server im getting two strange entries for my domain controller (gossip.jacknet.co.uk which is on ip 192.168.2.36). This may have something to do with gossip being a VPN server too. Ive attached a picture of the dns console. Thanks Jack Dunn

Its the same as the other error, probably just your not using a proxy so it doesnt show the zero sized reply

Thats brilliant lol

Its my home network like i said... I'll try to get one created in a bit using visio How can i put another ip address on the DC, would that require multiple NIC's?

Care to share with us, im sure it may be useful for future readers! Thanks Jack

Yes i know it picks up on port 80 I cant forward it to the Domain Controller because its behind the proxy on a different address (the router is on 192.168.1.1 and the dc is on 192.168.2.34) the router only allows me to enter address's in the 192.168.1.* range The routers a Linksys AG241

Ive got a PPTP VPN server setup on my windows 2003 domain controller at my house, the DC is behind the transparent proxy, so how can i make the VPN work correctly externally. Ive just tried opening port 1723 and 47 on the router and forwarding them to the transparent proxy which then should destination NAT those packets to the DC, i tried the following iptables rules: -A PREROUTING -p tcp -m tcp -i eth0 --dport 1723 -j DNAT --to-destination 192.168.2.36:1723 -A PREROUTING -p tcp -m tcp -i eth0 --dport 47 -j DNAT --to-destination 192.168.2.36:47 The DC is on ip 192.168.2.36 and the transparent proxy has 192.168.2.34 and 192.168.1.34 with the router having 192.168.1.1

How do i remove the / that appears when theres a ' in php. Very brief but i dont think i can tell you anything else, Thanks Jack Dunn

Thanks Jona, base64 encoding and decoding works fine! Jack

Done that and its still ?'s, ive attached the outputted file below I'll have a look at this now and get back with the results shortly file.txt

Im sorry, but what do you mean by that, in phpmyadmin? How would i go around doing that? Ive tried exporting the table to Excel and it displays fine in there, and ive also exported it to standard SQL and the characters display fine in notepad Jack

Nope, with that it still doesnt seem to work still displaying the same as before Jack

I dont know, whats that mean, and how do i do it? Jack

Ive got a table setup in MySQL that will hold some textdata one of the columns is setup as LONGTEXT. And the collation set to utf8_unicode. Im trying to insert characters such as the ones on the screenshot below, it displays fine in phpmyadmin but on a webpage where it pulls the text from the db the characters are displayed as question marks. The screenshot first is what it shows as in phpmyadmin which is correct, the second screenshot is the one from my page which is incorrect, and the third screenshot is the original P.S. Excuse the random piece of text, i just picked it because it had lots of random characters in Thanks Jack Dunn

I suppose so, but still ive learned alot from this forum so its proving useful! Sorry just had to say something, ill shut up now

Hmmm, thinking about it i dont seem to have many hobbies and im 13! haha Listening to music (Usually Rock/Emo) Computing! And thats all i can think of. God im dull! Jack

Try using a linux live cd then you can see if its windows or not. Maybe something is shorting, perhaps one of the connectors? Jack

Dont know if it works in windows im trying to install the os on the hard drives, Ill try with it on the onboard IDE and ill tell you the results in a bit Thanks, Jack

Ive recently purchased a PCI IDE controller as the onboard IDE was a bit crap, it works fine and detects all my drives and CD Drives as it lists them at startup. The only problem is i cant get the computer to boot from CD, i cant see the CD drive in the bios but i can see the floppy and the hard disk i selected as primary, ive tried downloading Smart Boot Manager which should of let me boot from the cd drive but the option isnt there. The hard disks are setup up like this Primary Master - WDC 40GB Primary Slave - WDC 500GB Secondary Master - CD Any ideas

is this just for a webserver or for other applications on the server as well? Jack

This seems to be what your looking for here
