Quick Workstation Lock
OFFLINE
Sometimes you need to go out of your cubicle very quick but you don't want anyone to sniff on your work (or your citywaboo review! LOL).


Did you know that you can lock your workstation by pressing CTRL-ALT -DELETE and pressing enter (or choosing "Lock Workstation)? It is also possible to create a shortcut to do the same thing that you can click on.




1. Right click anywhere on your desktop and choose "New..." then "Shortcut".

2. Enter the following text in the box


%windir%\system32\rundll32.exe user32.dll,LockWorkStation

3. Click next and name the shortcut "Lock Workstation" or similar.


4. The default icon is a bit naff, so right click on the new shortcut and choose Properties. Then choose "Change Icon". You can use any icon you like, however one that is suitable is a picture of two keys. Use browse to find "C:\Windows\System32\migpwd.exe" or "C:\Winnt\system32\migpwd.exe".




Do it it will save you a lot of headaches from prying eyes.

Quick Windows Restore Poing
OFFLINE
Sometimes we have our computer in very good shape and we want to save that state.

You can create a very usefull tool with this small VBScript file.

Set sr = getobject("winmgmts:.rootdefault:Systemrestore")

msg = "New Restore Point successfully created." & vbCR
msg = msg & "It is listed as: " & vbCR
msg = msg & "Automatic Restore Point " & Date & " " & Time

'Put a ' in front of the next five lines to disable the Success Failed Prompt.
If (sr.createrestorepoint("Automatic Restore Point", 0, 100)) = 0 Then
MsgBox msg
Else
MsgBox "Restore Point creation Failed!"
End If

'Remove the ' from the next 3 lines to only alert you if the process failed
'If (sr.createrestorepoint("Automatic Restore Point", 0, 100)) <> 0 Then
' MsgBox "Restore Point creation Failed!"
'End If


After save in to a file with the extension .vbs.
 And you can manage your restore points very quick and easy.

How to forward a Range of UDP Ports on Cisco IOS
OFFLINE

Configuring a SIP trunking i came along with the need of forwarding a range of UDP ports for my incoming communication with the trunk.

The commands you can used to get around on IOS are:

ip nat pool SIPT 192.168.x.x 192.168.x.x netmask 255.255.255.0 type rotary
ip nat inside destination list 100 pool SIPT
access-list 100 permit tcp any any range 0 65335

However is not good to forward all the ports to an specific IP since you can have more devices that needs this traffic. You can modify the last line to adjust your range.
