I'm currently trying to coect my local machine remotely to my server in the office. The objective is to set this machine up as a domain oppose to workstation so it acts the same as if it was in the office. I've established a successful VPN to the Server with no problems. I tried coecting to the domain using xyz.local however it couldn't find it. I've then amended the ipv4 settings for the VPN for which the primary and secondary DNS are pointing to what the server gives out. Still no luck. I've also noticed using ipconfig /all the default gateway is 0.0.0.0 ? I tried disabling the WIFI adapter but that discoects everything. Any suggestions? Let's block ads! بخوانید...

I have a machine that has been damaged by some careless couriers, and want to replace the damage parts efficiently. I have limited opportunities to test components in other computers, so I'm trying to find out what is broken in other ways. I have two main issues: Graphical artifacts. These take the form of small grid-aligned squares which usually appear and then flicker form position to position. If the display driver doesn't crash, they often settle down to a final position, and sometimes the contents of the squares itself changes. This says to me that VRAM is being corrupted. Occasionally there are other artifacts, like polygon spikes, in games. This is affected by physically pushing on t...

I'm new to VBA and would greatly appreciate some help on a problem. I have long Word documents where I need to apply standard comments to the same set of keywords, but only in selected sections of the document.

I tried a "With Selection.Range.Find" approach but I don't think com...

Is there a fast and reliable way to use a device's MAC address to determine if it is currently coected to a network from a Windows PC/Server? If not, then from an Ubuntu server? arp -a doesn't work on its own as the items stay in the cache too long. arp -a combined with clearing the cache every 5 minutes might work, but seems inefficient, and only works if the cache entirely repopulates within 5 minutes. Would it?
