This might do it: http://www.vmware.com/download/fusion/importer_tool.html

VNC or RD should both be capable of this and they both have options to use various kinds of encryption. If you want full control (to host it yourself) then your going to need some kind of open port to the world. UltraVNC has lots of useful add-ons: http://www.uvnc.com/addons/index.html Cheers Jona

Thanks mate, going in the bookmarks. I'd come across some of the sites linked, but not all. Cheers Jona

There's always these sites: http://www.linuxexpress.co.uk/zen/ http://www.thelinuxshop.co.uk/catalog/?gclid=CO_Ctq-7wZECFSdCEgodcUT6DQ But that dosn't solve your original issue. Cheers Jona

More info/context needed I think, are you talking hex, excel, something else...?? Jona

As above, we've covered some of this reasonable recently: http://www.edugeek.net/forums/showthread.php?t=14097 You need to get your ISP to open port 80 and then sort out port forwarding on your router. Once you've done this you can worry about DNS! Cheers Jona

I would second this, there are fairly big in the industry as well. They arn't cheap though.....

would still be suspicious of a macro virus or something? maybe use a second scanner... (I guess user's beware with the attachment). If it was less text I would suspect auto correct, have you checked this? Have you confiremd that it isn't other students messing around?

What Apeo said is possible, however I'd be inclined to disable one of your webservers first, otherwise they could be fighting on ports or for file locks, or all kinds of nasty stuff. Apache & IIS don't share the same internal processes because they are completly different services (analgious to Word vs. OpenOffice). If your going to use apache you need to make sure you have mod_ssl, etc installed. Lots of how-to's on google, if your using a pre-packaged WAMP stack it might be as easy as uncommenting it in httpd.conf http://docs.moodle.org/en/Apache#SSL http://www.neilstuff.com/apache/apache2-ssl-windows.htm http://tud.at/programm/apache-ssl-win32-howto.php3

I hate to fan the flames of seperate vs. flat domains. But I think we really need to differentiate between seperate networks (e.g. seperate physical wires or well implemented vlans) and what I think most of you are talking about with is just seperate domains. At the IP level I suspect they are usually the same network, which dosn't really protect you from hackers.... Cheers Jona

That dosn't sound quite right. You should be able to use mod_ssl to run your secure stuff. Whats your rational for using IIS on the same machine, or this something in the windows world I don't know about? I know we definatly have tested moodle using SSL without IIS installed, I don't know about LDAPS though.... Cheers Jona

two idea, we havn't tried to implement https yet so don't know too much: 1) Have you opened the appropriate ports (usually 443 as well as 80) and also re-bound the apache/IIS if your using a new IP? 2) Is your certificate bound to an internal address rather than your DMZ or external address. If your using a perticularly paranoid browser this could be breaking with out telling you.... Cheers Jona

Theoretically you could write a javascript look to get the content of each html element and replace it but this makes me shudder just to think of it. I think you need to give us more info about what your trying to achieve and the enviroment. If its a static page then notepad, grep, etc will be your best bet. If its database driven then maybe you could do it as a sql query in the backend or in what ever language is pulling your data from the database. Cheers Jona

Fastpush seconded, it works really well provided you have windows file sharing set up properly. Cheers Jona

moodle is good at what it does... but might be overkill for CMS, it's more designed as a VLE / to provide online courses. I'm sure someone will be along momentarily to plug the edugeek Joomla package ;-) Cheers Jona

stripslashes() should do it as always more info on php.net - http://uk2.php.net/manual/en/function.stripslashes.php , but pay attention to what Tom said especially if your dealing with a database as you may be opening yourself up to SQL injection attack. Cheers Jona

Intresting article here about how to test smtp connectivity from the commandline: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/153119 (However you might run into issues if you don't use a transparent proxy) Surely either your LEA should let you connect to alternative SMTP servers or provide you one themselves...... Cheers Jona

I'm still a little bemused about how your e-mail systems work in this case.... I suspect your options are run your own SMTP on a different port you can get opened, or host externally.

If the OP has got PHP on IIS then s/he may as well run Joomla. If they can't or don't want to install PHP then dotnetnuke looks a good choice.

I think If I was in your position I'd try to get the ports unblocked... how do you check your existing e-mail (is it all webmail)?? One way around it might be to run your own smtp relay: http://www.emailarms.com/products/1st_smtp.html or sendmail in the linux world although at some point you still need to be able to make an out going connection.... Or host your helpdesk externally on a webserver. Cheers Jona

To update this, after a *lot* of googling I've found the following: http://www.jrlearnsmedia.com/blog/articles/ssa-downloads.aspx It's not very user friendly, but works really well. You need your slides as JPEGS (producer will make them JPEGS) and to know the timings. It also needs a m4a (mpeg-4) audio file, I'm using http://www.imtoo.com/audio-encoder.html to convert from mp3 and wmv/a to m4a. Cheers Jona

It's not if a hard disk will fail it's when.... Definatly don't exclude .doc or .xls from being scanned altogether as there is lots of virus potential with in these files (macro's are just the start). Cheers Jona

Hey all, I know how to create normal podcasts but the latest challenge is that we have a Presenter presentation (sound against ppt slides) that we would like to have as a enhanced podcast (or at least itunable file). I've come across this: http://www.celt.sunysb.edu/webpoderator/instruct.htm unfortunatly the upload limit on our cache is set to small for me to try it from here. Does any one know of any web service, script or software to do this? There's no handy mac avaliable so I guess windows only.... Cheers Jona

Sorry my bad, wasn't reading closely enough. I suppose the next question is got any laptops with spare slots....
