This week I bought myself a FRITZ!Box Fon WLAN 7170. I threw out my Quattrovox and hooked up my fax, ISDN phones and analog phones to the FRITZ!Box. Normally I don’t read the manual but this time I had to look some things up before I got everything working ;-). From now on all my outside calls are routed over the internet using the sip server over at Voipcheap.com. I don’t have to pay any outside telephone calls to the KPN (the largest Dutch telecom company) anymore. Now I’m talking over the Internet with Voice over IP -- without turning on your PC, and without changing my phone number. And FRITZ!Box Fon WLAN also puts my PCs on the Internet at ADSL speed -- over Ethernet, USB or wireless LAN -- always with firewall protection, and with wireless encryption activated out of the box. When you are going to configure a FRITZ!Box the first thing you should do is put it in expert mode. Don’t forget to create a dialing rule for all the numbers that start with a 0. Happy phoning!

Jainoxi made over 50 ESX 3i screenshots. Among these screen shots you can see how to create a virtual machine, how to import a virtual appliance, the Update Manager the Remote CLI VM and the Remote CLI console. But the most important is the imported Nostalgia virtual machine, this is an old DOS game running within a VM. :-)

 

I bought myself a 100 € Samsung 500 Gigabyte SATA disk and hooked it up to my workstation. On the configuration tab in the VI Client I selected the Storage option and created a VMFS.  I immediately received a failure message stating that “The response is not well- formed XML�. There was still a format task running so I waited for a half hour before I restarted the VI Client. On the Storage Adapters configuration page I discovered my newly build VMFS. I made some screen dumps during this process.
