Network and Systems Management Tips

Downgrading, pooling and transferring licenses
[Barrie Sosinsky]
When you buy a license to run an operating system such as Windows 2000 Professional, you can't use that license to run Windows XP on some other machine when your Windows 2000 Pro system is not running. However, the opposite action is allowed. This tip guides you through the details of EULAs and the rules for downgrading and transferring licenses.

Comparing VoIP service offerings
[Ed Tittel]
With so many VoIP calling plans on the market, it's helpful to have a good list of the features you should look for to compare costs and evaluate individual offerings. This got me to thinking about what one should look for when shopping around for VoIP service, which I present in the form of an alphabetized laundry list.

[Garry Kranz]
For the time being, Internet Protocol Version 6 (IPv6) appears to be more apparition than apparent reality.
