OT : Customs clearance delay - Fedex
by Tony Likhanga 20 Nov '15

20 Nov '15

Anyone experienced delays with custom clearance of late? I have this shipment <https://www.fedex.com/apps/fedextrack/?action=track&tracknumbers=7815706006…> that took 3 days to arrive from Netherlands but is still held at customs, well into the 3rd week. All duties/charges were promptly settled and we're constantly doing follow-up; Fedex is running out of apologies for the delays arising from the customs end. Are we doing this badly really? Tony.

Hi Listers, I am looking for a voice short code to be mapped to an IVR This is the same concept that Kenya Power uses, in that you dial 95552 instead of an entire mobile number for convenience. I have engaged a few PRSPs who only seem to offer SMS short codes. CAK also advise that this is done via PRSPs. I also require info on obtaining a Toll-free number mapped to an E1 number.

Re: [Skunkworks] Weird VPN problem between Cisco Routers - RESOLVED
by Odhiambo Washington 29 Oct '15

29 Oct '15

So a JTL engineer took a look and couldn't find a solution. I consulted my local guru and you guys don't want to imagine what the solution was: He looked at the config and all seemed well. He created a new tunnel - named it tunnel51 - with the exact same params as tunnel49 and everything worked perfectly. So the problem, according to our diagnosis, is that the router which was showing 'line protocol is down' had suddenly hated the name 49 and wanted a different name. 51 did it. One day you encounter such a problem, you know what to do. Rename the tunnel <LOL> On 19 October 2015 at 16:16, Odhiambo Washington <odhiambo(a)gmail.com> wrote: > I am calling JTL and as usual, cannot find anyone on Tech Support.

Getting ScreenShots From a Huawei 210

Hi, I own a Huawei 210 and I would like to get clear screenshots of the SMS chats to use as evidence somewhere. The phone doesn't come with in-built capability to take screenshots. Taking photos of the chats isn't proving useful either. I have tried several Play Store screenshot apps but they aren't working as promised in their descriptions. Is there a known to work screenshot app on the Play Store? If not, what other method can I use to get screenshots off the Huawei 210? Thank you in anticipation.

Interesting, for security purposes though it might be prudent to leave out configs/details that are specific to an entity. Some of this info is good for reconnaissance.

Upgrading to Windows 10...

Greetings Team, As Network and / or Systems Administrators, would you upgrade your laptops & workstations to Windows 10? Most of my machines run Windows 7 & 8.1 but I'm a bit hesitant as I've not heard entirely positive reviews of Windows 10 online. One such qualm is that it consumes a lot of memory.

Cisco 4-10GE-ITU/C Card
by charles kungu 11 Oct '15

11 Oct '15

Hi Guys, I have the below card available.. Bring in your offers. Cisco 4-10GE-ITU/C SPECS The Cisco® CRS-1 Carrier Routing System offers continuous system operation, exceptional service flexibility, and system longevity. The Cisco CRS-1 is powered by Cisco IOS® XR Software - a unique self-healing, distributed operating system designed for always-on operation while scaling system capacity up to 92 Tbps. The innovative system architecture combines the Cisco Silicon Packet Processor, the first programmable 40-Gbps application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC), with the Cisco Service Separation Architecture for superior service flexibility and speed to service. The Cisco CRS-1 marks a new era in carrier IP Communications by powering the foundation for network and service convergence today while protecting investments for decades to come. Product Overview This data sheet provides detailed product specifications for an important element of the Cisco IP-over-DWDM solution, the Cisco CRS-1 4-Port 10GE Tunable WDMPHY Interface Module (Figure 1). This tunable DWDM interface module allows service providers to increase efficiencies, improve reliability, and reduce operational and capital costs through elimination of expensive and bulky optical transponder equipment, even as video-based applications rapidly increase traffic in their DWDM networks. The module supports both G.709 Generic Forward Error Correction (GFEC) and high-gain Enhanced Forward Error Correction (EFEC), extending reach up to 2000 kilometers (km) without requiring signal regeneration. The Cisco CRS-1 4-Port 10GE Interface Module is also completely tunable across the C band with 50-GHz spacing, and supports router-to-router SONET/SDH-like operations, administration, maintenance, and provisioning (OAM&P).

Opportunity For Anyone Interested In Data Wrangling/Analysis Using Python/Ruby?
by King'ori Maina 10 Oct '15

10 Oct '15

Hi Skunks, I posted this first on the Nairuby Ruby User Group <http://nairuby.org/> mailing list for obvious reasons … thought I’d share it here as well. There’s a good opportunity that is available for anyone with a strong foundation in mathematics and statistics … and experience in modelling data (the nuts and bolts of manipulating, processing, cleaning, and crunching data).

Hi guys, I am new to Windows AD and have a site I am setting up for someone who insists on using a windows setup. I was testing it out in my virtual environment before deploying in the live. It is a Windows Server 2012 R2 Standard server with DS and AD installed on it. I used some youtube videos to set up the environment but now when I want to add machines to the domain I get and SRV record error. I have attached a screenshot of the error that I get as well as an nslookup for the same server from the Windows XP machine joining the domain. Also get the same error on Windows 7 machine joining the domain. Have a great day! Warm regards, Amarjit Singh Labhuram.

Ladies and gentlemen, It could be that my news sources are archaic, but I didn't catch the article that Equity Bank now requires you to scan your finger when withdrawing over the counter, untill I went to my branch over the weekend. For a bank with such numbers, this is a huge undertaking, no? I would also assume it makes fraud one step harder. Anyone with more interesting details of this?

We've reduced our prices... https://angani.co/blog/lower-vm-prices/ Now a 512MB VM is 512 MB KES per month. The rest of our pricing will be reducing over the next few months. It's possible to have well priced VMs in this part of the world. With the amount of bandwidth we give (unlimited local, a minimum of 1TB international), the total cost of ownership of Angani infrastructure is lower than most providers globally. Give us your feedback, we'd love to know what you think. Thanks, Phares

Hey skunks. I hope you are well. There's a work station I'm working on, and one of its partitions is a locked partition. I want to gain access to it. The pc owner doesn't remember setting a password to it. Is there any way any of you knows or can recommend for one to gain access? Regards.

Dear Skunks, I have created a web service to manage sessions for a USSD application. What is the process of taking it to production? Precisely, can I acquire a short-code directly from mobile service provider or do i have to get that from a PRSP? Second, if I have to use a PRSP do I have to host the webservice with the or can I host it at my own server? Kindly advise. Kind regards -- * To follow the path: look to the master, follow the master, walk with the master, see through the master, become the master.* *- Zen Poem*

openstack
by Stanley Karunditu 29 Sep '15

29 Sep '15

Hello Skunkworks members, Currently learning Openstack and looking an expert Linux admin or data center admin, who is interested in learning Openstack. Would like to collaborate and blog about our experience. There are 2 ways to learn Openstack without paying lots of money. Buy a Cheap server (Intel NUC about $400 <http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16856102097&nm_mc=KNC-G…> ) or use ravello systems <http://ravellosystems.com/> and pay as you go. I am a long time Linux user, since 1998, network engineer (since 2000) and a few years ago got swept into the whole Devops/cloud thing. I do some Python work from time to time too. (https <https://pypi.python.org/pypi/netshow-linux-lib/1.1.4>:// <https://pypi.python.org/pypi/netshow-linux-lib/1.1.4>pypi.python.org <https://pypi.python.org/pypi/netshow-linux-lib/1.1.4>/ <https://pypi.python.org/pypi/netshow-linux-lib/1.1.4>pypi <https://pypi.python.org/pypi/netshow-linux-lib/1.1.4>/ <https://pypi.python.org/pypi/netshow-linux-lib/1.1.4>netshow-linux-lib <https://pypi.python.org/pypi/netshow-linux-lib/1.1.4>/1.1.4 <https://pypi.python.org/pypi/netshow-linux-lib/1.1.4>), I blog at linuxsimba.com.

Recommended Wireless Access Points...
by Michael Bullut 28 Sep '15

28 Sep '15

Greetings Listers, What W.A.P.s do you currently use on your networks? Currently, I manage a network of around fifteen laptops at a branch office. The setting is large and the router I use is a Linksys E1000 whose signal can't always reach all the way to the sales department so I want to boost the wireless signal with a wireless access point. Are D-Link any good? Or, do Linksys also have any listings? Any assistance will be highly appreciated. Thank You... Warm regards, Michael Bullut. --- *Cell:* *+254 723 393 114.**Skype Name:* *Michael Bullut.* *Twitter:* * @Kipsang <http://twitter.com/Kipsang/>* *Blog: http://www.kipsang.com/ <http://www.kipsang.com/>* *E-mail:* *main(a)kipsang.com <main(a)kipsang.com>* *---*
