This week, Sanjaya came in on Wednesday to try and figure out why the server was behaving so slowly.  He seemed to have fixed it by just refreshing everything in the MDF (and maybe the IDF, too).  Erik was also there to help.

It seems that all 3 machines in 212 aren't connecting to the internet and are giving the "Limited Or No Connectivity" error message.  I tried ghosting them, switching the plugs, and checking for ideas online.  But I had no luck.  

I ran out of time, otherwise I was going to bring a computer in there to test whether the network ports were the problems.  I wrote a post a couple of weeks ago saying how this was becoming more of a nuisance (in some rooms more than others).  It's possible that all three of the ports in 212 wore out on the same day, but it's pretty unlikely.

Also, it can't be that Sanjaya did something in the MDF which cut 212 off of the network, because they were having this problem two days before Sanjaya even came in.

So, I'm not sure what that means. Hopefully we can figure it out.

212, combined with the server issues, kept me from helping out with the Spanish project on Wednesday.  Erik assured me that they weren't doing anything with the computers anyway, other than taking pictures.  Hopefully I can help out next week.

In addition, don't let me forget to rename the computer in 205.  Thanks!
