  aww.. we read the question different ways. I read it as sharing their work to outside computers and you read it as reaching out to a computer somewhere on the internet and using that as a jumping point to the internet. OP?

  @Dominica I can't speak to the OP - our problem really isn't about paying, well other than with time. The app can be replaced by another solution we already have in place, but our docs have to read the patient education material in the new system and approve it for our patients before we'll give it out. They currently only approved the material in the old system. If they'd read the new stuff and sign off on it, we'd be done.

  @Bill-Kindle said: @scottalanmiller Seagate surprised me with what a POS their NAS offering is. Not at all happy with it. Drive makers don't make the best storage appliances. Just doesn't go together. Their interest is in selling drives. WD does a little better, but it is a weak offering too. It's RAID 5 only so that you have to buy super expensive RE drives.

  @IRJ said: Ok. The GPO says it will work for versions 8,9,10, and 11. So one GPO should work As long as it just looks for whatever IE is on the machine and not for a specific version.

  I told @mike-ralston that downloading any Linux isos via mirrors is not a good idea. Torrents for those are infinitely faster and more reliable.

  @Dashrender While true, it's both a funding problem and a hardware limitation on what I have to work with. With that said however, I have disproven the fact that it is a dynamic memory problem as the data translation uses all 16GB of RAM while running the job but as soon as it's done, allocation drops substantially without the OS even knowing the difference. Also, running a second translation job this time using an iSCSI LUN that I setup on my new Synology NAS (just a small 10GB LUN to store and write data to as part of this test) is running much faster than with the local storage, but I'm using consumer level drives in the host machine as opposed to WD Reds in the Synology NAS. It's a very noticeable difference.

  @Bill-Kindle Bill's right, it is popular in schools. Topic comes up a bit in the SW areas. Wins out over competitors (Pharos, Equitrac, etc).

  @scottalanmiller said: @JaredBusch said: @scottalanmiller yeah those are all windows.except my MacBookPro. I've debating putting it on my PBX in a Flash box so i can manage it without first jumping on a server or VPN. If you do, use PIAF on RHEL 6. RHEL 5 isn't playing nice with Pertino yet. It is 6.4, thanks for the warning.

  I incorrectly started my GPOs in the default GP 10 years ago... like you I've moved away from this practice completely allowing me greater flexibility where needed.

  Haven't used BSD since my days at Data General. DG/UX was a hybrid, BSD for the file system (faster and more robust), networking used streams from ATT Sys V. I have now dated myself.

  Find it odd you have GNOME at the bottom. Again though, I haven't given them enough or really any time as of late, to have an opinion. GNOME at least was my favorite but they could have ruined it in recent years.

  @scottalanmiller said: @ajstringham said: @scottalanmiller Really?! One of the best movies out there. Period. Easily on my top 10. Really, it's a niche film. Only know a few people who have seen it and only a few of those that liked it. I found it nearly unbearable, a showcase of bad acting. I've actually used it as an example of the worst acting I know of in any mainstream movie many times. Umm...wha...what...what the heck are you talking about?! UNBEARABLE?!?!? -.-
