Friday funnnai!

Four friends, who hadn’t seen each other in 30 years, reunited at a
party.

After several drinks, one of the men had to use the rest room.

Those who remained talked about their kids. The first guy said, “My
son is my pride and joy. He started working at a successful company at
the
bottom of the barrel. He studied Economics and Business Administration
and
soon began to climb the corporate ladder and now he’s the president of
the
company. He became so rich that he gave his >best friend a top of the
line Mercedes for his birthday.”

The second guy said, “Darn, that’s terrific! My son is also my pride
and joy.
He started working for a big airline, then went to flight school to
become a pilot. Eventually he became a partner in the company, where he
owns
the majority of its assets. He’s so rich that he gave his best friend a
brand new jet for his birthday.”

The third man said: “Well, that’s terrific! My son studied in the best
universities and became an engineer.Then he started his own
construction company and is now a multimillionaire. He also gave away
something very nice and expensive to his best friend for his birthday: A
30,000 square foot mansion.”

The three friends congratulated each other just as the fourth returned
from the restroom and asked: “What are all the congratulations for?”

One of the three said: “We were talking about the pride we feel for
The successes of our sons. …What about your son?” The fourth man
replied: “My son is gay and makes a living dancing as a stripper at a
nightclub.”

The three friends said: “What a shame…what a disappointment. “

The fourth man replied: “No, I’m not ashamed. He’s my son and I love
him.

And he hasn’t done too bad either. His birthday was two weeks ago, and
He received a beautiful 30,000 square foot mansion, a brand new jet and
a top of the line Mercedes from his three boyfriends”.

Outlook 2003 / 2007 Interface not registered

So I installed Office 2007 and rolled it back to Office 2003, Outlook decided I can no longer send email. Whenever I hit send I get an error from Microsoft Word saying “Interface not registered” but then there was the internet… and I found the solution…Solution is here at the MS site

SYMPTOMS
If you use Microsoft Word as your e-mail editor in Microsoft Office Outlook 2002, and you try to send e-mail messages or to save e-mail messages to the Drafts folder, you may receive the following error message:
Interface not registered
Or, you may experience the following symptoms:
You receive an error message.
The e-mail message is not sent.
The e-mail message is not saved to the Drafts folder.

CAUSE
This behavior occurs if the Ole32.dll file that is located in the %Windir%\System32 folder is not registered correctly in the registry.

RESOLUTION
To resolve this problem, register the Ole32.dll file. To do this, follow these steps:
1. Click Start, click Run, type the following command in the Open box, and then click OK:
Regsvr32.exe %Windir%\System32\Ole32.dll
2. In the RegSvr32 dialog box, click OK.”

In microsoft outlook, interface not registered = a most sucky error

Throttle Bandwidth Based on the Time of Day

Saw this little goodie over on ciscoblog.com

Step 1: Create an access-list that matches my file server (172.30.100.11), but only during the day.

Router(config)# time-range DAY (creates a new time range)
Router(config-time-range)# periodic weekdays 6:00 to 22:00 (matches weekdays from 6:00am to 10:00pm)
Router(config-time-range)# periodic weekend 6:00 to 22:00 (matches weekends from 6:00am to 10:00pm)
Router(config-time-range)# exit
Router(config)# ip access-list extended SERVER
Router(config-ext-nacl)# permit ip host 172.30.100.11 any time-range DAY (matches my server during the time-range I specified above)
Router(config-ext-nacl)# exit
Router(config)#

Step 2: Create a class-map (used for QoS) that matches the SERVER access-list we just created.

Router(config)# class-map MATCH_SERVER (MATCH_SERVER is just the name)
Router(config-class-map)# match access-group name SERVER (ties in the access-list above)
Router(config-class-map)# exit
Router(config)#

Step 3: Create a policy-map (used for QoS) that throttles the bandwidth.

Router(config)# policy-map LIMIT_SERVER (creates the policy)
Router(config-pmap)# class MATCH_SERVER (applies policy to this class)
Router(config-pmap-c)# police 80000 (limits bandwidth to 80Kbps)
Router(config-pmap-c)# exit
Router(config-pmap)# exit
Router(config)#

Step 4: Apply the new policy to the incoming interface (the one connected to my LAN, not the Internet).

Router(config)# interface fa0/0
Router(config-if)# service-policy input LIMIT_SERVER
