Toolbars, Desktop Search and Mac Users by Courtney Heard Desktop Search, Toolbars and Mac Users These days, it seems everyone is releasing a Toolbar and Desktop search, from Google and MSN to Search Engine Optimization companies and Internet Service Providers. As none of these are being released for the Mac platform, it has left many of us Mac users wondering why. Contrary to popular opinion, most software today does release a Mac version. With Apple’s launch of the iPod and iTunes music store, and the significant drop in computer prices, many people ... The Best Data Recovery Choice For You by John Simpson The best defense against a loss of data is a really solid and faithful backup routine of important files to reliable media. It's also a good idea for the media to be removable and portable if possible so that even if something happens to your whole computer for any reason, the data is protected by being in a totally different physical area. OK, so that is the best solution to data loss. But what if you have not been backing up your drive like you should and now you find yourself confronted with ... Cisco Certification: Debug and Show commands for ISDN by Chris Bryant The major reason I recommend getting your hands on real Cisco equipment rather than a simulator is that real Cisco routers give you the chance to practice and learn show and debug commands. The knowledge you acquire from debugs is invaluable. Frankly, it’s this knowledge that puts you above the “average” CCNA who doesn’t have that hands-on experience. Watching debugs in action also gives you a head start on the CCNP. Since 90 – 95% of CCNAs go on to pursue the CCNP, it’s a great idea to get star ... Cisco CCNA Certification: Don't Overreact To Exam Version Changes by Chris Bryant, CCIE #12933 CCNA Certification: Don't Overreact To Exam Version Changes Whenever a Cisco exam version changes, there's always a lot of chatter about it on the web. The CCNA exams are no exception. One comment I see often goes like this: I hear Cisco is going to change Intro / ICND / CCNA exam versions soon, so I'm not going to start studying yet. I'll wait until the new exam comes out. Do not let this happen to you. While some large publishers would have you think these exams change tremendously from one ve ... Cisco Certification: How To Build Your Own Home Lab by Chris Bryant, CCIE #12933 CCNA and CCNP candidates hear it all the time: “Get some hands-on experience”. From my personal experience climbing the Cisco certification ladder, I can tell you firsthand that there is no learning like hands-on learning. No simulator in the world is going to give you the experience you will get cabling and configuring your own routers. Whenever I mention this to one of my students, they always say it costs too much. The truth is, it is cheaper now to build your own CCNA and CCNP lab than it ha ... Cisco Certification: Becoming A Truly Valuable CCNA by Chris Bryant I've been active in the Cisco Certification track for four years, working my way from the CCNA to the coveted Cisco Certified Internetwork Expert title, and during that time I've conducted job interviews and casual conversations with hundreds of CCNAs and CCNA candidates. The CCNA is an exciting beginning to your Cisco career, but just having the certification simply isn't enough. A recruiter or interviewer isn't going to be impressed just with the cert; you've got to have some real-world knowle ... Cisco Certification: Configuring CHAP on ISDN by Chris Bryant, CCIE #12933 Introduction To ISDN, Part IV: Configuring PPP CHAP Authentication In part III of this ISDN tutorial, we learned that PPP has two main methods of authentication that Cisco certification candidates need to know how to configure: PAP and CHAP. PAP has very few advantages over CHAP. PAP passwords are carried over the line in clear text, which in today’s world is a very bad idea. PAP configuration also requires additional configuration with the “ppp pap sent-username” command, so anyone who can see ... Does Your Event Need To Be Live? by Adi Gaskell There are many choices to make when it comes to Webcasting: live vs. on-demand, audio vs. video, and more. So here are some of the questions you’ll need to ask yourself before deciding which way to go. Live versus On-Demand Although broadcasting an event live may be necessary for breaking news or a corporate announcement, it is also much more expensive than broadcasting it later.

Data Recovery The Easy Way by John Simpson It's a fact of life that bad things happen to good people's data every now and then. And when it does, too often the victim is not prepared for it. Is that the case with you? Are you prepared in advance for a complete loss of critical files and data on your computer or on your computer network? If you aren't prepared in advance, you will most likely have to use a data recovery service or data recovery software solution to help get back as much as you can of what was lost. This can be a very good ... Cisco Certification: Taking Your First Certification Exam by Chris Bryant, CCIE #12933 You’ve studied hard; you’ve practiced your configurations; you’ve used your flash cards over and over again; and finally, the big day is here.
