Lab 1. Preparing a Virtual Workstation Image Windows 7 Virtual Machine “Keyless” Installation and Re-arm Process Purpose: This section describes the reason for and the procedure to use the “keyless” installation for Windows 7 Professional applicable to our lab environment for IT109/NT1230, and to use the “Re-arm” procedure to extend the trial period to meet our curriculum needs. Background: In installing Windows 7 Professional into a virtual machine in the VMware Player for the labs in our lab environment, if the Product Key for Windows 7 Professional is applied and activated during or at the end of the installation, the installed virtual machine will be authorized to launch only from the physical computer from which it was installed, as Microsoft registers the product key to associate with the hardware identity of the physical computer in their antipiracy database during the activation process.

Current Network Diagram Please See Exhibit (A-1 & A-2) Diagram of Proposed Network Integration Please See Exhibit (B) Challenges to Integrating the Current LANs, Challenges integrating the Myrtle & Associates and Bellview Law Group networks will be presented by the following: * The geographical distance between the two offices (L2TP/IPsec) * Bellview Law Group use of Novell and IPX/SPX instead of TCP/IP Integrating these two networks will be faced by the geographical distance between the two offices where the law firms reside.

...Between Linux & Windows Operating Systems Lecturer/ Hadeel Tariq Al-Rayes Abstract—Comparisons between the Microsoft Windows and Linux computer operating systems are a long-running discussion topic within the personal computer industry. Throughout the entire period of the Windows 9x systems through the introduction of Windows 7, Windows has retained an extremely large retail sales majority among operating systems for personal desktop use, while Linux has sustained its status as the most prominent Free Software and Open Source operating system. After their initial clash, both operating systems moved beyond the user base of the personal computer market and share a rivalry on a variety of other devices, with offerings for the server and embedded systems markets, and mobile internet access. Linux and Microsoft Windows differ in philosophy, cost, versatility and stability, with each seeking to improve in their perceived weaker areas. Comparisons of the two operating systems tend to reflect their origins, historic user bases and distribution models. Index Term— Kernel, Linux, Operating Systems, Windows II. THE ESSENTIAL DIFFERENCES BETWEEN LINUX & WINDOWS (BEGINNERS LEVEL) 1- Drives don’t have letters, they have mountpoints The first thing that usually trips up people who come from Windows to Linux is that filesystems aren’t assigned letters the way they are in Windows. Instead, there is a single root filesystem whose path is “/”. If you must use the Windows analogy to help...
