Three days ago, all the users with administrator role could not connect to our server (Windows Server 2008 R2) via network drive or remote desktop, while general users could apply these functions as usual. The administrators can still log in at the server machine directly. The security setting of the drives and the setting of the remote desktop control are alright. The only thing altered that day was that there was a Windows update of MS SQL Server 2014.   What should I check? Many thanks in advance for any advise!
It's become clear that last night's (Tues Jan 8th 2019) patches to Windows 7 broke SMB2 networking in Lanman Server.  One or both of KB 4480970 and KB 4480960 results in any OS that uses SMB2 (such as Windows XP, some Windows 7, and same generation server OS' and Mac OS X machines (certainly 10.10, 10.11 not sure about others yet)) being unable to connect to Windows 7 Pro shares.  Client machines repeatedly prompt for login despite credentials being correct.
Merge two custom post types into one admin page? I am building a site with 4 custom post types. To make things easier for our client/admin, I'm wondering if there is a way to merge those custom post types into one list in the backend? Like if you look at normal backend admin page with the list and columns of posts, can a page like that pull in 3 other post types for easy sorting/searching?  I can't combine the CPTs into one, they must remain seperate outside of one 'viewing' page in the admin area if possible.  Any thoughts on how to do this?? Or even where to start looking/thinkging of how to develop this? English equivalent of the expression “a longer arm than résumé” How to connect nodes to node group inputs and outputs in python? The absence of some strings in Transifex I cannot find these strings using Transifex:      (name hidden from user)       Regards,   {site name} Moderation Team          There is  and it seems like this string does not work ok (it is translated and approved, but, unfortunately, not rendered on the site).   All of the strings are taken from Moderator Private Messages interface.   Could you please fix it? Relationship between balloon size and pressure I see numerous websites talking about how a small balloon is at higher pressure than a big balloon. This is a fun counter-intuitive factoid... unless it isn't a fact at all.  Young-Laplace gives  $$T = \Delta p \frac R2 $$  Which means that for a given tension, increasing the radius does decrease the pressure. But why would the tension be constant? A latex balloon is like a 2D spring, right? So the tension in a inflated spherical balloon should be proportional to the surface area, correct?  $$T \propto R^2 $$  But this gives  $$\Delta p \propto R$$  Which means the bigger the balloon, the higher the internal pressure. Which, again, would be the normal intuition - but it would burst the bubble of some simplified explanations. (har har) UK Visitor Visa: Required Time or Interval Between Visits? I am a US citizen and have recently visted the UK  with simply a passport which allowed me to vist for 6months I have heard rumors that I am obligated to stay in the US for a Equal amount of time that I have visited the UK before I am able to return, but I am struggling tour no any proof of this obligation .. Am I missing somthing or is it simply not true I have been wondering why anyone ever thought that we could find an expansion for eigenstates of some perturbed Hamiltonian in terms fo those for the basis Hamiltonian. My lecturer insisted that this was because the eigenstates of the Hamiltonian are complete', however from my (limited) understanding of the mathematical basis of QM:   When you are given a Hamiltonian, it comes with the Hilbert space of functions of which it acts (subject to some conditions we impose, such as the Lebesgue square-integrability of functions) When you are given another Hamiltonian, there is no guarantee that it will act on the same Hilbert space Therefore, that the zeroth order Hamiltonian has eigenstates forming a complete basis for the space on which ti acts does not guarantee that these same eignestates form a complete basis for the Hilbert space on which the purturbed Hamiltonian acts.   As a simple example. I can imagine adding a small perturbing magnetic field to a Hamiltonian in which there initially is none, such that we lose the degeneracy in the eigenstates accounting for different spins of a particle. One could say that we have the same Hilbert space before and after but we lose degeneracy; or I would have been tempted to say that our initial Hilbert space did not have these extra dimensions corresponding to the spin states. So rather than the eigenstates of the basis Hamiltonian also forming a complete basis for the purtubed Hamiltonian, but having eigenvalue degeneracy which is lifted on the purtubration, I would have said that our Hilbert space has changed. After all, if we take the former view (i.e. a basis accouting for spin but with degeneracy) then it seems like for any problem we would need to know and account for EVERY possible system property that can be discerned. This doesn't seem reasonable to me....  NOTE:  1) My question was asked here previously:   although there is only a discussion and no conclusive answer given. I see that the distinction is important in relativistic QM, and the case of adding a potential onto a free particle Hamiltonian seems to be a special one. Although I am still not sure what the answer is for general purturbations.  2) Similar question here:   but it seems to completely avoid answering the question.

I understand that there are different types of lighting (dim, bright, complete darkness), but I haven't been able to find anywhere in the DMH or PHB that specifically describes how these different types of light sources affect combat.   What impact does complete darkness have on players being able to see the locations of the monsters in the room? What impact does complete darkness have on combat rolls against monsters? Could anyone point me to a book/page that contains some more detailed information on this?   Thanks! How do I remove code duplication between similar const and non-const member functions? Flagging summary improvement: filters Here is my flagging summary on SU:   Your flagging history   32 posts flagged as requiring moderator attention    2 are waiting for review   3 were marked valid   1 were marked invalid   (older flags were not recorded valid/invalid)    2 posts marked as spam    It is too complicated to look for invalid flags. Would it be possible to make filters on the top of the page (like on favorites for example) with:  By date, By type (off-topic, spam, dupes), By status (accepted, pending, rejected)  It would make it easier for reviewers to check their flagging and eventually know what to improve on.  Or is there another easy way to audit this? I'm trying to find out what modules  in cpan. So I've used  to mirror it. My problem is that I need to iterate through the archives that are downloaded, and grep the files that are in the archives. Can anyone tell me how I might do this? preferably in a way that tells me which file in the archive and what line it's on.  (note: they aren't all tarballs some are zip files) Installing a 16-bit Windows 95 game on 64-bit Windows 7 Home Premium I have a method that I would like to call.  However, I'm looking for a clean, simple way to kill it or force it to return if it is taking too long to execute.  I'm using Java.  to illustrate:  logger.info("sequentially executing all batches..."); for (TestExecutor executor : builder.getExecutors()) { logger.info("executing batch..."); executor.execute(); }   I figure the TestExecutor class should implement Callable and continue in that direction.  But all i want to be able to do is stop executor.execute() if it's taking too long.  Suggestions...?  EDIT  Many of the suggestions received assume that the method being executed that takes a long time contains some kind of loop and that a variable could periodically be checked. However, this is not the case.  So something that won't necessarily be clean and that will just stop the execution whereever it is is acceptable. Do the integral forms of Maxwell's Equations have limited applicability because of retardation? In the usual bookwork treatment, it is easy to show that the differential and integral forms of Maxwell's equations are equivalent using Gauss's and Stokes's theorems. I have always thought that neither version is more fundamental than the other and each has its place in solving problems. (See also  )  But: I have a conceptual problem with applying the integral forms of these equations in cases where there is time-dependence and the "size" of the loop or area means there is a significant light travel time across the regions considered compared with the timescale on which fields vary.  e.g. Suppose there is a time-varying current in a wire $I(t)$ and I wish to find the fields a long way from the wire. My first instinct is that this ought to be solved using the inhomogeneous wave equations to give A- and V-fields that are dependent on the retarded time - hence leading to the E- and B-fields.  But what about using Ampere's law in integral form? What is the limit of its validity? If we write $$ \oint \vec{B}(r,t)\cdot d\vec{l} = \mu_0 I(t) + \mu_0 \int \epsilon_0 \frac{\partial \vec{E}(r,t)}{\partial t} \cdot d\vec{A}$$ then presumably the $t$ that is defined on each side of the equation cannot be the same, since a change in $I$ at time $t$, presumably leads to a change in $B(r)$ at a time $t + r/c$? I suppose one does not care about this so long as the timescale for a current change is $\gg r/c$.  So my question is: Are the integral forms of Maxwell's equations inherently limited by this approximation, or is there a way of formulating them so that they take account of the finite size of a region in cases where the fields are time-variable? How to fix error W: Target Packages (main/binary-amd64/Packages) is configured multiple times in my sources.list file? I often see statements in discussions about web displayed image quality that go something like this: "I only upload pictures at 72 dpi and 1200 pixels on the long edge, so if someone copies and prints the image it won't look as good as if it were 300 dpi."  What? Have I missed something here?  Does an image edited and saved/exported with 1200x800 pixels at 300 ppi look any different online than the same image saved/exported with 1200x800 pixels at 72 ppi? Other than the metadata regarding ppi, is there any difference in the two images at all? If so, what is the difference? If I tell my printer to print the images at 4R (4X6 inches) will there be any difference at all in how the printer creates a print from the 1200x800 @ 300 dpi image versus the 1200x800 @ 72 dpi image? Assuming one wants to travel through China, what are the rules for visa-free access? To be more specific:   How does the 24-hour visa free transit work? How does the 72-hour version work? What does a person ineligible for either of these programs have to do to transit China? Do the programs apply to flights only or do they also work for transit on land? Would a visitor save much hassle by using visa free transit instead of just getting a visa?      NB: this is intended as a canonical question on transiting China
