DjVu is an free alternative for Adobe's .pdf. It is like .pdf, but with much, much great data compression. You can read about this here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DjVu I think, that this is very perspective format, and I save all my e-books and data converted  from paper, in this format.

Yes, I've been educating myself about it. I even found out that I'm in business because Universal Viewer (which I use) supports DjVu, so by all means upload your explanation in that format, it would be my first experience with it.

I have strange expections when I look at this diagram... Maybe the "climat changes" are like a sort of fractals? Small wave, sitting in the great wave, which is in the greatest wave, and so on... How do you think? Oh, thinking now - it will be difficult to prove because we have exact measurings only on about a hundred years...

Given the fact that these measurement started in 1979, as I see it it's a little too soon for fractals. Go to www.junkscience.com and see the evidence they present. Right or wrong, one thing I like about these guys is that they use hard facts to substantiante their doubts.

In fact of the matter, that it is so! Even a great politicans, like VV and his gang sometimes speaks like this (sometimes even on camera), and after them the lower the more. It is like a plague. Yes, big managers not speaks exact like prisoners or hunky, but about a 50% of theirs words is bad lexicon... Like a "f@#k" and other abusive language on every third word.

Who is VV? In any event, I would imagine politicians speak to crowds in slang so they can get their point across more clearly. Still, bad lexicon happens everywhere and is just a part of life -- and it varies in different countries who share she same language or big countries with cities far apart. Some bad lexicon ends up becoming part of the language. I don't think there's such words as "uninstall" or "undelete" in English, for example.

BTW and briefly changing the subject, is that you in the picture on your profile, or just a pic you found somewhere?

Yes, it's me. :)

Let me tell you something. If you posted that pic on a dating site, I'm sure plenty of women would write you a letter. :)

Daniil

OK, I'll uploading "network setup manual" at the end of weekend.  :)

VV is Putin. Because he is Владимир Владимирович (Vladimir Vladimirovich), it is name.

I think that I would not argue with you about bad words in language. In the end, it is personal choice. As for myself, I try not to use such lexicon in my speaking.

Lol... :) Thanks.  ;D
The main thing is that such letter mustn't write by plenty of gays guys!  ;D

That's correct. I wasn't aware his middle name was Владимирович. I believe in Russian that middle name means "son of....". Krushchev's father was Sergei, so his name was Nikita Segreievitch Krushchev (correct me if I'm mistaken).

Don't worry about gays. Most of them are respectful and generally want nothing to do with straight guys. Besides, when you write about yourself you'll make it very clear you're interested in women. Believe me, with that picture they'll write you.

BTW, I'm not gay, in fact I live with a woman.

The first part of "Network Setup Manual" - about setting up simple network under 2000/XP/2k3 - is ready now. It made in .PDF format. Where I should upload it?

Very simple - click down where it says "Attachments and other options" and it'll prompt you for the for the file to upload. That way we can all grab it. Be sure it's ≤ 128k in size.

Didn't you say you were going to send this in djvu format?

Daniil

DjVu can't eat a .docx file as source.

And a file is 374kB (coz there is images in document), so I placed it temporary on my filestorage. You can download it from here: Simple Network Setup Manual, part 1.

If anyone from administration of our forum can offer a place on nomaher.com domain for storing that file, it will be good.

I got your file. It took me quite a while to figure out how to download it, but at last it's here. I was just briefly going over it before I read it in more detail, and what you said "For Stalin, for Russia" made me laugh. They were saying that constantly in that movie about the Battle of Stalingrad (I don't remember it's name). The things they show are so horrible I often wonder if they're historically accurate.

As for storage and downloading, I like Dropbox. They give you 2 GB for free and all you do is upload something to their servers. To share it, simply right click on the file and select "Copy Dropbox Link" - take that and paste it where people can grab the file. If you need more online storage, cx.com gives you 10 GB for free. And of course there's always Skydrive with another 7 GB free.

Hey Daniil. :)
You can start a topic with details about what you're presenting, and upload the file to any file sharing site [Mediafire is recommended].
This is what we do.

Many thanks for the file.  :)

Daniil: On the file you uploaded when you gave instructions on putting up a simple network, you didn't specify what to put on default gateway. I would assume if you're using a crossed cable this entry would be blank, right?? By comparison, when a network switch is installed, isn't 192.168.1.1 (or similar) the switch's IP address which you must enter as default gateway? I'm asking because although I've never used a pure switch, I've used routers that double as switches, and all of them have had IP's.

Why did you say it's no good for the computer to use a crossed cable for too long a time? Unless I'm wrong it's just a network like any other. The NIC adapter doesn't know if it's a crossed cable, internet connection whatever else. Please clarify.

Where did you get that dinosaur that has just 3 audio connectors?  ;D My old motherboard from 2006 which I threw away already had 6 (your 3 plus rear speakers & subwoofer). Also, is that your finger holding the network cable?

Finally, knowing Ahmad I doubt he'd recommend a "problematic" place to upload a file (e.g., Rapidshare). Still, it wouldn't be a bad idea to get yourself a free Dropbox account. You can upload and post a download link for anything ≤ 2 GB. If it were bigger than that, you could cut the file up with a great freeware proggie called HJsplit (http://www.hjsplit.org/).

@ humbert:
You are not need to set up gateway in this network configuration. The gateway is... well, gateway. :) A semi-passable bridge between two networks of different ranks. So, router, as in your example, is particular type of gateway. And if you use simple switch, you are not need to set a gateway setting.

Connection via crossed cable is not like an other network connection. i am not recommended this type of connection because if your computers are not grounded, and if they plugged in different phases of power line, then you can get an electrical potential of a half power voltage on pc case, e.g. 110V. Sometimes it may be very unpleasure, esp. if you touch case's bare metall.  ;D And this voltage also can damage your network adapters. If you connects computers with  X-cab, they should be powered from one "pilot".

That motherboard is ASUS P4P800SE. This is my mom's PC. I assembled this PC from parts of old PC's from my previous workplace. 1Gb DDR1 RAM, Intel Celeron 3-with-something GHz, GeForce 4 Ti by Sapphire, simple integrated soundcard, 160Gb SATA HDD. Good PC for INet surfing, storing cookie recepies and chatting with old friends by Skype. And yes, it's my fingers.

If talk about "for Motherland, for Stalin" yell, this was like a pray at that time. For soviet peoples Uncle Joe was like a God at time of War. Today this yell is like an warlike shout "O'kay, bros, let's do it!" in America.  :D
And do not believe the films. Stalingrad battle (and War in Russia) was much more horrible.

@ Ahmad
Thank you, dear comrade. I think, this will be the best way.

@ all
I'll correct the manual, put it on a file share server (Maybe "Yandex Disc") and create a topic for network manuals, where place that one, and next.
