Assigning same drive letter to USB devices

Tuesday, November 25th, 2008

I have the probelm when rotating USB harddrives offsite that the drive letter changes when plugging in the next in the set.  This causes the backups to fail and is a general pain in the butt.

I found this site:

http://www.uwe-sieber.de/usbdlm_e.html

which is a cool service with infinite choices to assign drive letters.

this is the simple and dirty ini I used:

[DriveLetters10]

VolumeLabel1=BKUP1

VolumeLabel2=BKUP2

Letter1=H

New webserver

Monday, October 6th, 2008

Got all the domains moved over today without to many issues.  The plesk migration tool did pretty well.  My Domains didnt transfer over automatically and the SSL certs had to be moved over.  I had some SVN that was hanging the services.  Disabled that and everything else went we./  Email and passwords transfered no problems.  All DBs.  And heh, even this wordpress blog made intact.

The new server is much snappier.  the admin panel is much faster.  Bigger harddrives and more ram as well.  Plus new IPs to hurry and get blacklisted ;)

How Autodisconnect Works in Windows NT and Windows 2000
If you configure the Autodisconnect option to -1 at the command prompt, Autodisconnect is set to the upper value in the registry. This is approximately 8,171 years (not tested), which should be long enough to be the equivalent of turning Autodisconnect off.
So what happens in 8,170 years? another crash?
