Yeah, that's a problem. Under Mac OS X I'm able to force specific domains by putting a file into /etc/resolver/.

Hum. Just figured out today that when you have mDNS set up, you can't resolve .local by any other means than using mDNS. In our particular instance, someone set up our Windows AD server to name our internal network with .local in the end, so I tried to configure our internal development DNS server to use .local as well and this did not work.

It goes hosts => mdns_minimal => mdns => dns.

But .local addresses will stop at mdns_minimal no matter what. Never goes to dns.

OMG I have been looking for a charger that do 1/2 the functions the Maha PowerEx C9000 WizardOne charger will do forever. It is awesome, I just ordered 3 of the from Pauls with batteries. Both types LSD and reg. I still like the 2700mhA batteries for thing I use regularly so the batteries never sit around. The 2100 LSD are excellent for TV remotes or other low drain devices.

Christine used this light on the last search. We did not notice any decrease in brightness after 6 hours. Its about 2 years old now, seems well made, IPX7 water resistant. Lifetime warranty inside the US 10 years outside.

You have to be really careful with the specifications on these products. The light you mentioned actually runs at 130 lumens for only 1 hour, after that it starts tapering off.

Have you tried their products? My experience was with a headlamp a number of years ago and it was very poor quality. In fact, three people had the same unit and they all died within 2-3 years.

All of the Maha chargers will charge anywhere from a single AAA to 4 AAs, with each cell getting the correct amount of current for it's individual charge state.

Thanks for your feedback!

Check out this light. 130 lumens for 72 Hours on 4 AA. I like 4 AA as opposed to 3, it hard to find a charger that will do 3.

I’ve been able to ping between the OpenVPN peers alright, but I can’t seem to reach any other remote machines.

This was a direct hit on Bush’s policy – one of the many disgusting policies advanced by the Cheney led group – glad you liked it
