Notes from a conversation about various and sundry things between myself and
Smirk
“We need to set up a server running Cacti [1] on SXXXXXX's network because
they're having major network problems. I put the Fluke [2] on their network
and it found broadcast storms up the wazoo [3].”
“SXXXXXX? Are you sure it wasn't NXXXXXXXXXX? They're the ones with the
networking problems [4].”
“Nope, it was SXXXXXX.”
“Wait! Let me guess … they run Windows?”
“Full Windows shop. Flat network.”
”Of course!”
