Are ACLs necessary with PAT?

I've been deploying Cisco routers for the longest time now, and I was curious, how necessary is it to apply ACLs to the WAN interface with a single nat overload (on Vlan1)? I was under the impression that natting alone provided the necessary security that you would get by applying the standard ACLs within a network (e.g. incoming TCP/UDP connections wouldn't be accepted, as they have no where to route to)

Hello Bob,
Nat does hide details of your inside network, it may also slow an attacker down but it wont stop reconnaissance attacks, determine the ip ranges of your site, what host/services are available via port scanning.
If the hacker has the expertise they could do a lot of harm with all this information, that why we should use all the necessary tools available to us to try and avoid or at least make it much harder for them to gain access to that information.
NAT should be deemed as a very very weak form of security.

Are Vaults necessary with Referenced Libraries?

My Referenced Library is ~12 GB and my Vault for the same library is ~12 GB. Both reside on the internal HDD, while the images reside on an external HDD. If I just manually backup my .aplibrary file to another drive, isn't that the same (theoretical) thing as putting in it a Vault? I do understand that each time I make a change to the main .aplibrary, to sync it my external drive will require moving 12 GB each time vs updating a Vault on an external drive (much quicker).
I know the Vault keeps track of all the keywording/adjustments/etc... but so does the original .aplibrary file.
But to my original question, should backing up the .aplibrary accomplish the same thing (in case of internal HDD failure) as having a Vault on an external drive?

Backing up the library does the same thing as creating a vault for the library, essentially. So no, if you have a good backup plan, they're not strictly necessary.
Note, having a vault on the same drive as the library itself is only marginally helpful. A single HD failure will kill both

Why Toshiba notebooks are not delivered with the common Vista install CD

Our household now has two x Toshiba laptops, both of which were supplied with MS Vista Home Premium pre-installed.
The nature of the Recovery Media provided with these machines is such that (a) we do not have sufficient flexibility over volume/partition sizes, program locations etc., and, more specifically.
It makes it necessary for the majority of the bundled software (Norton Security etc.,) to be installed by default in the event of a system failure. (And immediately uninstalled following recovery! An unnecessary waste of time.)
Bearing in mind that a proportion of the price paid for each laptop must have included a cost for the Vista Operating System, does anyone know if it is possible to obtain a Master Recovery disk which ONLY consists of the operating system, and which allows us the flexibility of configuration which used to be available when the OS was purchased as a separate product.
Additionally, please let me know if it is possible to purchase Toshiba laptops as a RAW machine, i.e no OS supplied, and I will then buy my own and cut out the rubbish which is supplied on the pre-installed media.

>Why Toshiba notebooks are not delivered with the common Vista install CD?
The answer is very simple: software is bundled to hardware and when you buy notebook you buy license for preinstalled Vista version and you can install recovery media so often you want and it belongs JUST to your notebook model. It cannot be used with other notebook or PCs.
If you get usual Vista installations DVD it can be installed on each computer system. For such purposes you must buy Microsoft installations DVD.
As you already wrote Toshiba recovery image contains much software that can be not useful for you. You can remove it from the system and nobody force you to use them. I do the same.
After clean OS installation the first thing I do is to remove or software I don't need or I don't like.
I optimise preinstalled OS on my own.

What are the Necessary Componentsfor an EJB ?

Please, I am new to EJB. I need you to answer the following questions for me:
1. What makes a Java class an EJB?
2. In terms of implemantaion, what are the necessary components like libararies, inherted components, etc an EJB must contain?
Thanks
'Femi

You are not going to get satisfying answers when you ask such generic questions about technology for which whole books have been filled. But anyway:
1. What makes a Java class an EJB?When it is properly annotated and packaged such that the container will manage it as an EJB instance.
2. In terms of implemantaion, what are the necessary components like libararies, inherted components, etc an EJB must contain?You need an enterprise container such as Glassfish, JBoss, Websphere, etc. which deliver the implementation of the Java Enterprise Edition specification. Generally to compile you'd use an IDE and let it setup your project such that the proper jars of the enterprise server are added to the compile classpath of your project, but alternatively you can compile against the generic JEE API jar or use Maven with a specific set of dependencies.
If that blew right by you: that is to be expected. You really need a decent book to get started with JEE technology, especially the EJB component.

just purchased elements & photoshop 13. We are having problems with certain parts of it. Are we allowed to uninstall and reinstall. Was not sure what the agreement allowed. help!!

Yes, feel free to uninstall and reinstall as many times as you feel necessary. However, this doesn't often fix problem (unless the install process didn't work in the first place or that files have become damaged or are missing since the install process).

How do I set up family sharing if all my family members emails are already associated with my iTunes account?

I want to set up family sharing but it won't let me because all the emails are already associated with the one iTunes account we have. I am afraid to delete because my children use that email address for text messaging. How do I set up family sharing if all my family members emails are already associated with my iTunes account?

Hey Wendaroski,
I am not quite sure what you mean by "my family members emails are already associated with my iTunes account" but what you need for each family member is an Apple ID. Yours would be the one for your iTunes account.
If the other members of the family already have an Apple ID you can invite them to join the family group. If not they will need to create one, using their email address. This article shows how -

There are multiple users with the same display name

Hi,
We have a user and when she get an item assigned to her she sees the following alert:
"There are multiple users with the same display name USERNAME and at least one of them does not have read permissions to some of the files"
Now I looked in the database and when I run the following query with the username:
SELECT
[ProviderDisplayName]
,[DisplayName]
,[HasDisplayName]
,[Domain]
,[AccountName]
,[UniqueUserId]
,[LastSync]
FROM [Tfs_Configuration].[dbo].[tbl_Identity] where displayname like '%USERNAME%'
Then I get 2 same usernames back, How can I get rid of one of them ? When I access TFS trough the portal I only find 1 occurence of this user.
We use VS2013 and TFS2013 update 4
Best regards

Hi DSW,
Thanks for your post.
In your query result, please check if these two users have the same Account Name. if they are two different Account Name in result, it indicate there’s two users have the same display name in your AD, please check that two users’ information in

Old Bookmarks are not compatible with Firefox version 20+

Background Information:
I use the old client version 3.6 as there's an old utility addon that the author stopped updating and will not work with the newer revisions. Despite disabling the update feature both in about:config and in preferences, the browser still eventually updates (Originally I was using 3.4, and would prefer to use that, but no matter how much I try I can no longer roll it back from 3.6 to 3.4 even if I reinstall using a 3.4 installer). As a result I've had a habit of keeping a copy of my firefox directory in case it updates itself again without asking, which it has. This might help you guys out in answering the countless people who have lost their bookmarks due to the upgrades released this year, and will hopefully someone to investigate and release a patch/utility to fix the issue.
Issue:
I have verified that the newest clients from at least version 20 and onwards, are not compatible with the older bookmark JSON files. People who have been upgraded to the latest revision not only lose their bookmarks, but CANNOT restore them either, as Firefox will only return the error message: "Unable to Process the Backup File".
I have confirmed that the files themselves are perfectly intact with no sign of corruption, and are as intended. They restore ok to older browser revisions (In my case specifically 3.6), but will not restore to the newer client revisions. This is not a fault with the bookmark backups, but with the newer clients (I'm guessing they changed the way they store the information in the JSONs at some point. I note in the code for the JSONs that GUID was never used in the older revisions, but it is in the newer revisions. Perhaps this is causing an incompatibility issue? You just need to adjust the client so that it looks for the GUID and if none can be found to ignore it rather than decide the file is corrupt.

Solution?
Well in my case I had a backup copy of the old revision directory. To restore I opened the copy, and exported the bookmarks as an HTML, which I restored in the newer client. If you do not have a copy of the old client, the best thing would be to try and reinstall an older revision of the client and either make a copy of the program folder and use another copy of that so you can use both the new and old clients and not worry about the loss of an older revision since you'll always have 2 copies of the old client (One you're using, one you use to restore if it upgrades). Or you export the bookmarks as an HTML, then upgrade the client to the newest and import the HTML instead of the JSON files.
Please investigate and create an easier solution to a silly incompatibility issue. ^_^

This happens if you create a backup and forget to add the file extension manually when Firefox didn't add it automatically or you may have removed it when modifying the suggested name.

Vendor invoices are blocked automatically with payment blck A instead of R

There is an issue with a specific vendor.This vendor's invoices are blocked automatically with payment block A instead of
payment block R.
I know that invoices are blocked when posted if there is a price variance exceeding 3% and/or 100 Euro with payment block R.The invoices with payment block A are not included in the report Z1PE which is used by the Production Planning in order to monitor the blocked invoices and these invoices remain blocked for a long time until the vendor requests their payment.Could you please check why this happens?

HI,
Discuss with your MM Consultant, in MM there is a facility to block the invoice automatically in certain scenarios.
