If you are caught in middle between changing your WordPress website/blog URL - Site Address (URL) setting in the WordPress then there is a simple solution available to override WordPress Site Address (URL) values that is saved in database. You need access to the wp-config.php file which can be found in the root of your WordPress install. Make sure you make a back up copy of this file before you open it. If you are using shared hosting, then please use control panel provided by hosting company or use FTP application such as FileZilla. <br />
Open the wp-config.php file and add following lines to this config file where the “http://example.com/” is the URL you want to access. <br />
<pre><code>define( 'WP_SITEURL', 'http://example.com/' );</code></pre>
<br />
<br />
<pre><code>define( 'WP_HOME', 'http://example.com/' );</code></pre>
<br />
<br />

One important protocol is TTL i.e. Time To Live.<br />It is an eight-bit field helps prevent datagrams from persisting (e.g. going in circles) on an internet. This field limits a datagram's lifetime. It is specified in seconds, but time intervals less than 1 second are rounded up to 1. In latencies typical in practice, it has come to be a hop count field. Each packet switch (or router) that a datagram crosses decrements the TTL field by one. When the TTL field hits zero, the packet is no longer forwarded by a packet switch and is discarded. Typically, an ICMP message is sent back to the sender that it has been discarded.<br />In addition to that there is a good reason to use this field, i.e. for identifying the other end PC, device or OS. </div><div align="justify">How?

Most information security agencies like Computer Emergency Response Team (CERT), OWAPS SANS are taking action to stop these frauds. In order to secure the web application agencies have given idea to the bank and other financial corporations to use Secure Socket Layer (SSL) protocol, Transport Layer Security (TLS).<br />But if this is that much secure then why web applications are still having default protocol HTTP (port no. 80)?<br />This we can understand by this conversation:<br /><strong>Client:</strong> Hello!! </em></span><a href="http://www.laksha.net/"><span style="font-family:arial;"><em>http://www.laksha.net/</em></span></a><span style="font-family:arial;"><em><br />Client connects to TCP port 80 and wants this host<br />Here http tells webserver which host is requested with which configuration and what content shall be presented to the client<br /><strong>Webserver:</strong> Hi!!

Information is an asset that has value to the organization's business. In sort we can say asset which has some value to organization is called information. The information may be in any form of hard, soft or spoken in conversation. If an asset that has some value i.e. information, consequently needs some appropriate protection.<br />Security is a protection to any thing. So Information security is protection of organizational valuated assets from any kind of treats, to ensure low business risk, business continuity and maximum benefits from the investments.<br />Security may concern from outsiders (e.g. Hacker), or insiders (e.g. Disgruntled Employee).<br />Information Security can achieved by set of policy, procedures & process i.e. controls. The Information Security is covered under ISO-27001:5000.<br /><br /><br />Hrishikesh Dubey<br />Information Security Consultant<br />New Delhi, India.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18043515.post-42648918057230962382010-03-01T11:29:00.001-05:002010-03-01T11:29:40.845-05:00HAPPY HOLIHappy Holi to all blog redar Happy Holi <p><a href="http://lh4.ggpht.com/_tYnwuenJ5sA/S4vrcO_sp8I/AAAAAAAAAHU/AzMwBW0hkWo/s1600-h/image003%5B3%5D.jpg"><img style="border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; display: inline; border-top: 0px; border-right: 0px" title="image003" border="0" alt="image003" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/_tYnwuenJ5sA/S4vrc4DQHxI/AAAAAAAAAHY/8ykDgNJad_Q/image003_thumb%5B1%5D.jpg?imgmax=800" width="501" height="389" /></a></p> Viruhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03961202256499762530noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18043515.post-49699788495606404252010-01-20T16:24:00.001-05:002010-01-20T16:24:05.686-05:00Email Virus Alert - W32.Ackantta.C@mm Virus - Please Read<p>My company AHS found many people receiving emails related to the virus, W32.Ackantta.C@mm, which is a mass-mailing worm that spreads through file-sharing programs and sends spam email that contains links to malicious files.</p> <p>The email has the below types of characteristics.  If you receive an email with the below Subjects or Attachments, please <u>do not open the attachment or click any of the links in the email</u>, please just delete the email. <br /></p> <p><b>Email Characteristics</b></p> <p>· <b>Subject of Email: </b></p> <p>· You have received A Hallmark E-Card!</p> <p>· Your friend invited you to twitter!</p> <p>· Jessica would like to be your friend on hi5!, </p> <p>· Shipping update for your Amazon.com order 254-78546325-658742 <br /></p> <p>· <b>Name of Attachment: </b></p> <p>· Postcard.zip </p> <p>· Invitation Card.zip</p> <p>· Shipping documents.zip </p> <p>Please feel free to share this information with others.</p> Vinod Sharmahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07728730199187957725noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18043515.post-25770650772458731602009-12-30T20:19:00.001-05:002009-12-30T20:19:04.059-05:00Dotnetnuke 05.02.01 Release Updated TodayDotNetNuke Community Edition, Version 05.02.01 which was released on Dec 22, 2009 has been updated today.

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;"><a href="http://lh5.ggpht.com/_XgWcdZvrhuo/SzCwr9LJEPI/AAAAAAAAFs4/Es_l252r-sI/s1600-h/image44.png"><img alt="image" border="0" height="64" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/_XgWcdZvrhuo/SzCwseBpMRI/AAAAAAAAFs8/kgTA5FIwJ-I/image_thumb20.png?imgmax=800" style="border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-top-width: 0px; display: inline;" title="image" width="504" /></a></span><br />
There are lots of suggestion in the internet to solve this issue. What worked for us is listed as below. This issue is also explained in more details in Microsoft KB article - <a href="http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx/kb/971620" target="_blank" title="http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx/kb/971620">http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx/kb/971620</a> which says:<br />

Steps:<br />
1. Go to SharePoint Central Administrator and select Operations –> Convert license type<br />
<a href="http://lh3.ggpht.com/_XgWcdZvrhuo/SzCwtLnKBxI/AAAAAAAAFtA/Q1Esv-3VAg0/s1600-h/image32.png"><img alt="image" border="0" height="312" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/_XgWcdZvrhuo/SzCwtq220WI/AAAAAAAAFtE/OX6LGb-m3L8/image_thumb14.png?imgmax=800" style="border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-top-width: 0px; display: inline;" title="image" width="504" /></a> <br />
2. Convert License Type page will show a warning message “Office SharePoint Server Trail with Enterprise Client Access License”. You will also notice that “Enter the Product Key” box is enable.<br />
To solve the issue, enter the product key you have for your SharePoint installation and click OK.<br />
<a href="http://lh5.ggpht.com/_XgWcdZvrhuo/SzCwuWBTUuI/AAAAAAAAFtI/-T1HA5Z2i2w/s1600-h/image28.png"><img alt="image" border="0" height="114" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/_XgWcdZvrhuo/SzCwvGv8sTI/AAAAAAAAFtM/vyBHAH0nmTQ/image_thumb12.png?imgmax=800" style="border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-top-width: 0px; display: inline;" title="image" width="504" /></a> <br />
3. It will apply the key and show you a success message.<br />
<a href="http://lh6.ggpht.com/_XgWcdZvrhuo/SzCwvRYQnxI/AAAAAAAAFtQ/Z8ChdsEZk4I/s1600-h/image36.png"><img alt="image" border="0" height="75" src="http://lh4.ggpht.com/_XgWcdZvrhuo/SzCwvx7MO3I/AAAAAAAAFtU/xY3ZZ9SLFoc/image_thumb16.png?imgmax=800" style="border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-top-width: 0px; display: inline;" title="image" width="504" /></a><br />
4. Check the Convert License Type page again. Now it will show you the correct message - “Office SharePoint Server with Enterprise Client Access License”. Also you will notice “Enter the Product Key” is not disabled. <br />
<a href="http://lh6.ggpht.com/_XgWcdZvrhuo/SzCwwXpciwI/AAAAAAAAFtY/8ccrUDRMd_Q/s1600-h/image40.png"><img alt="image" border="0" height="112" src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/_XgWcdZvrhuo/SzCww21l4HI/AAAAAAAAFtc/nsN-FoBIris/image_thumb18.png?imgmax=800" style="border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-top-width: 0px; display: inline;" title="image" width="504" /></a> <br />
5. Re-start the IIS (iisreset)<br />
<a href="http://lh4.ggpht.com/_XgWcdZvrhuo/SzCwxfdeOiI/AAAAAAAAFtg/BDwouQa3XNc/s1600-h/image51.png"><img alt="image" border="0" height="178" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/_XgWcdZvrhuo/SzCwx3VDcAI/AAAAAAAAFtk/QNombnqSZAE/image_thumb23.png?imgmax=800" style="border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-top-width: 0px; display: inline;" title="image" width="354" /></a> <br />
6. Search again and it should work.<br />
<a href="http://lh4.ggpht.com/_XgWcdZvrhuo/SzCwyU4-kbI/AAAAAAAAFto/rbDl-gC6vo0/s1600-h/image52.png"><img alt="image" border="0" height="126" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/_XgWcdZvrhuo/SzCwyyHzPkI/AAAAAAAAFts/cJPuCbACags/image_thumb24.png?imgmax=800" style="border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-top-width: 0px; display: inline;" title="image" width="354" /></a> <br />
