Ever had problems with your Windows printers suddenly disappearing? Generally this has to do with a print job that has become corrupted. Follow these directions and you should be up and running in no time!

If you have a long list of hung print jobs in Windows 7 or Vista, you can clear the print queue easily by using these steps.

1. Click Start.

2. Type Command.

3. Right-click Command Prompt and select Run as administrator.

4. Type net stop spooler then press Enter.

5. Type del %systemroot%\System32\spool\printers\* /Q then press Enter.

6. Type net start spooler then press Enter.

The print queue on your Windows 7/Vista system should now be cleared. Type exit and press Enter to exit the command window.

WordPress MU multiple domains

Today I have been working with multiple domains and wordpress mu. I setup a site admin to control the new blogs that were created.
Example:
domain1.com (main)
domain2.com
domain3.com

I could login to domain1 just fine but every time I would l log on to domain2 or domain3 I would keep getting a redirect back to the login page.
I found this on the wordpress forum that worked like a charm.

I had a similar problem which occured when I changed a sub-blogs domainname.
Wordpress MU: domain1.com
Blog: domain2.com

I had to make a change in wp-settings.php to make it work:

around line 261:
if ( !defined(‘COOKIE_DOMAIN’) )
define(‘COOKIE_DOMAIN’, ‘.’ . $current_site->domain);

changed to:
if ( !defined(‘COOKIE_DOMAIN’) )
define(‘COOKIE_DOMAIN’, ‘.’ . $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST']);

which seems to have solved the problem.

I downloaded this (vmare converter) free product during a baremetal conversion to a virtual machine. For small business servers out there this application is a life send. It has the ability to create virtual drives as well the .vmx file from the machine that you are wanting to convert from. This can be done while the server is running! After which, download Vmware Server, another free download, configure it and you are virtualized! Amazing product.
