How to Reserve ports in Windows [For Rightfax 9.3]

February 26, 2009

Really, this is a way to reserve any ports for windows, but this is specifically for Rightfax 9.3  Rightfax uses specific ports for its client configuration and if another program uses those ports, rightfax does not work correctly.

1. Click Start, click Run, type regedt32.exe in the Open box, and then click OK.
2. Locate and then click the following registry key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip\Parameters
3. On the Edit menu, click Add Value.
4. In the Value Name box, type ReservedPorts.
5. In the Data Type list, click REG_MULTI_SZ, and then click OK.
6. In the Multi-String Editor dialog box, type the range of ports that you want to reserve.
7. Specify the range of ports; type 1052-1062; hit enter.
8. Specify the next range of ports on the next line; type 10520-10521; hit enter.
9. Specify the next range of ports on the next line; type 10062-10062; hit enter.
10. Specify the next range of ports on the next line; type 34987-34988; hit enter.
11. Click OK.
12. Quit Registry Editor.

Once done, reboot the server and rightfax will be able to utilize those ports again.

How to Configure Shared Services In Rightfax 9.3

February 24, 2009

Installing RightFax servers to share a SQL database

To install multiple RightFax servers that share a SQL database, complete the following general steps:

  1. If you are upgrading, print or make a copy of the Windows registry key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\ Software\RightFax so that you have a copy of any changes that have been made to customize the system. In a typical shared database configuration, customizations should be identical on each RightFax server.
  2. Install the RightFax server on the first RightFax server computer. Define the SQL database as you are prompted during the installation.
  3. Activate licensed features on the first RightFax server computer.
  4. On the second RightFax server computer, run the RightFax server installation program.
  5. During the installation, point the second RightFax server to the SQL database that you defined when you installed the first RightFax server.
  6. During the installation, you will be prompted to delete the existing RightFax database or append to the existing database. Choose to append.
  7. Activate licensed features on the second RightFax server, as described in step 2. To avoid license conflicts and violations, all of the RightFax servers that share a common SQL database must have the same licensed features activated.
  8. Repeat steps 4 through 7 for each added RightFax server.

Providing access to shared resource folders

The following folders are shared among all the RightFax servers in the shared database configuration:

  • Image (contains sent and received faxes stored as compressed graphic image files).
  • SIG (contains graphic images of user signatures for placement on faxes).
  • Papers (contains the names of overlay form files).
  • FCS (contains fax cover sheets).
  • Outgoing (contains outbound files from all submission methods that are held while being processed into fax images, such as temporary fax queue spool files).
  • BFT (contains text files created by the OCR process).
  • CmdData (contains transaction files for each fax sent via e-mail or via SecureDocs).

This is the abbreviated version of the captaris kb 4442

Shopping Cart Hero Walkthrough

February 23, 2009

Another day, another walktrhough.  Today’s walkthrough? Shopping Cart Hero!

http://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/481867

First, I upgraded the wheels.  This allows for further jumps.  Once I had ehough money, I invested in tricks.  During the jump, I would initially point the shopping care up to allow for higher jumps and more air time.  At this point, I would perform the trick.  Only until after I have all other upgrades, I would invest in the people as if you fall, your groupies die!

Good luck!

TapDefense Walkthrough

February 20, 2009

While I generally do flash walkthroughs, I fell in love with TapDefense for the iPhone.  The game has all the greatness of a flash game, but I can play it on the subway.  I believe it is a win win situation here!

So far, I have focuses on classic mode, because why change the classics right?

Easy

I found that arrow towers are actually useful in this game.  I bought mostly tower defenses in the beginning.  Only invest what you earn in interest.  I would build two arrows and upgrade one to the second level.  Then I would buy another arrow until I make enough to upgrade my current towers.  When the enemy starts running away from my defenses, I would invest in water tower.  For the halos, I would invest in interest twice.  Then, I invested in magic and started building magic towers.  Again, unless in trouble, never invest more money than you make!  repeat until level 43 in which all hell breaks lose.  I had enough magic and arrow towers to take care of the day though!

Medium

Here, I would alternate between building arrow and cannon towers.  For each bend, when money was available, I invested in water towers.  The first two halos go towards interest.  The next available halo goes towards ice towers.  I put several ice towers in the front of the gate to avoid enemies running through my towers.  The next available halo goes towards magic towers.  When I beat medium, I invested in the next two halos in earthquake and made that as powerful as possible.  If I were to do it again, I would of invested in interest as the last round you get two halos for the onslaught of enemy.  The interest rule still applies so do not spend more than your interest can handle.

Hard – PENDING

Rightfax – Fax blocked by Board

February 18, 2009

Just when you think you have seen all the errors that OpenText/Captaris Rightfax software could provide, it throws you a curveball.  A sales person came to me and said that he is receiving the error “Fax blocked by board” in faxutil.  Now I am like, WUT, wtf is fax blocked by board?!?!?!  Well after a quick search on the kbs, I found the following tidbit of information:

This may occur if you send a fax from FaxUtil with the ‘Recipient Fax ID’ field filled in.

In the Fax Information dialogue, select More Options, and remove the phone number in the “Recipient Fax ID” field.

This feature can be summarized as: ‘the fax will not be sent unless the CSID (Caller Subscriber ID ) of the fax machine you are sending to matches this number.’ This is the programmed alpha-numeric identifier of the receiving fax machine. Please note that the match is case-sensitive.

To avoid this error, do not populate the “Recipient Fax ID” field.

Answer ID 76

Once I removed the Recipient Fax ID field, it worked without a charm.  Go figure?

Sarah and Billy VDay Blast Walkthrough

February 16, 2009

Really, you don’t need a walkthrough for this game, but it was cute and figured, I might as well write something about it… :)

http://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/483080

With that said, here are the following commands you can do:

Z – jump

X – follow me

C – toggle between people

Billy – slow and stupid?

Sarah – runs like hell…

Basically, if you need to go fast, use Sarah, if you need a lump with no special abilities, use Billy!

How to save your password for outlook when using RPC over HTTP

February 13, 2009

When using RPC/HTTPS connection in Outlook, you will need to follow the instructions below to store your password so Outlook will not prompt you for credentials. You must be running on Windows XP or Vista (any edition except Windows Home).

  1. In Outlook,  Go to: Tools > Email Accounts > Click Next to View or change existing email accounts > Highlight Microsoft Exchange Server and click Change > Click More Settings > Connections tab > Exchange Proxy Settings.
  2. Select NLTM Authentication as the Proxy Authentication Setting
  3. Check Connect using SSL only and Mutually authenticate the session when connecting with SSL
  4. The Principle name for the proxy server is in the following format:
    • msstd:proxy.server.com (proxy.server.com is the same as the Proxy Server URL)
  5. Click OK and close all the Outlook Settings Windows
  6. Launch Outlook, and when prompted for your username and password, make sure to check the box ‘Save Password’ and login.
  7. In Windows, click the Start Menu > Run > Type in “control keymgr.dll’”
  8. You’ll see an entry now with the Exchange Server name. Select it can click Properties
  9. Change the first portion up to the first period ‘.’ with an asterisk ‘*’. Below is an example:
    • “Exvmbx017-10.exch017.msoutlookonline.net”  should be changed to “*.exch017.msoutlookonline.net” (without quotes)
    • For Windows Vista you will need to Add a new entry. For the Log on to field, you will need to replace everything up to the last period with an asterisk “*”. Example: ”*.msoutlookonline.net”. Credential type should be set to “Windows Logon Credential”.
  10. Enter in your password and click OK
  11. Reboot the computer.

**Note: Only one account/password can be saved per Windows Profile**

If you are missing the Add button you may want to modify Windows Registry to save the password. Note, that for editing Windows Registry administrator rights are required, because it is not safe and you will perform it on your own risk.

  1. In Windows, click the Start Menu > Run > Type in “regedit”
  2. Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Lsa\
  3. Find DisableDomainCreds entry. Value of 1 (enabled) will prevent you from saving new credentials.
    Cange the value to 0 and reboot. You should have the Add button. Note, that the value of 0 is the default value.
  4. Also check LmCompatibilityLevel entry. It should be set to 3, which is a default value. If you have another value, change it to 3. If it does not work with 3 then also try it with 2.
  5. Reboot the computer to apply changes.
