This is how I got AAC+ streams playing on my SqueezeBox, the link is step one is a direct export of the files of the directory on my server, so it should be guaranteed to work. If not, I got my information from here. Download this Unzip the contents so that in the SqueezeCenter7 directory \Program Files\SqueezeCenter\server\Plugins Restart Slimserver and check Settings/Advanced/FileTypes that there are AAC or AACplus entries and they are enabled.

Pre-Configuration Steps Install VMware Consolidated Backup Framework onto the Backup Exec server Before installing VCB and connecting the proxy host to the SAN you should disable automount via diskpart(cmd, diskpart, automount disable, automount scrub). When you don’t disable automount Windows will signature all “incoming” disks. When this happens the VMware hosts will not recognize the VMFS volumes anymore. Open a command prompt on the VCB proxy server (The sever you installed VMware Consolidated Backup Framework) and type the following commands:- diskpartautomount disableautomount scrub   Reboot the server Configure the VCB proxy server so that it has shared access to ALL…

First thing you need to do is download and install a SFTP server, I use EFT Server 6.0 from here. Once you install EFT Server, you need to configure a few things using the Wizard. You can use EFT Server as SFTP & FTP, ports 22 & 21 respectively. In ISA 2006, there are a couple of things to keep in mind, The FTP Access Filter which is enabled by default won’t work with SFTP because the connection is encrypted and ISA won’t be able to access it. The other thing is you need to do is edit the filter…

When using IIS FTP for example, the username and password box that pops up won’t accept a username on the domain without putting the domain in front. To avoid having to type in domain\username in the username box follow this Microsoft knowledge base article. This is the error that you might get: Error message in IIS: "530 User <Username> cannot log in. Login failed."

By default the roaming profiles folders for users are only allowed access from the SYSTEM and the user themselves. This can be prevented in Group Policy ahead before the folder is created, Computer Configuration, Administrative Templates, System, User Profiles, Add the Administrators security group to roaming user profiles. However if you haven’t done this and already there are heaps of user profile folders which you don’t have access to, this is how to gain access to roaming profile folders. Using two tools, the first is SubInAcl.exe available from Microsoft, and the second is cacls.exe which you should already have by…

For some reason, Microsoft decided by default not to include the Local Settings folder for users roaming profiles, I think because of speed. By default the Local Settings folder and everything inside of it stays on the local computer. Outlook’s default location for PST files is under the Local Settings folder. This means that if a user sets up a PST file in Outlook and accepts the default location, when this user logs onto another computer they will be missing their PST file and all their email. In this location, HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon\ExcludeProfileDirs, remove any reference to Local Settings.

You can run SHOUTcast as a Windows Service, so that you can log off on your server and still run SHOUTcast. This is done with a utility called SRVANY.EXE. This utility runs as it’s own service and when it starts it starts SHOUTcast with it. Pretty simple stuff really, so here goes. Installation: Install SHOUTcast server as normal to the C:\Program Files\SHOUTcast directory Copy instsrv.exe to your C:\WINDOWS\system32 directory Copy SRVANY.EXE to C:\Program Files\SHOUTcast From command prompt, run this command – INSTSRV SHOUTcast “C:\Program Files\SHOUTcast\srvany.exe” Run the Registry Editor (REGEDT32.EXE) Under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\SHOUTcast: create a ‘Parameters‘ key (folder) Under the this…

I had a problem where in imported all my contacts from Outlook to Counterpath’s X-Lite, however all of my numbers had +61 before the number, and all my calls were failing. Network error etc etc. My dial plan originally was: #1\a\a.T;match=1;prestrip=2; This was default, so I changed it to add in another match, see below: #1\a\a.T|+61xxxxxxxxxT;match=1;prestrip=2;match=2;prestrip=3;pre=0 What the above dial plan does using a second match, detects a number being dialled with a +61 before the number, then pre strips the first 3 numbers and also adds a 0, so in essence a number +614017891234 will have the first 3…
