An update on the status of our 2 current projects. XWall was functioning well, then we decided to turn on the statistical analysis feature and the amount of spam being blocked went down. This could be because our limit is too high (destroy if likelihood is 70% or higher of being spam) or could be the feature itself. We haven’t decided, but will continue tinkering.

Our wireless network is working incredibly well (we are looking to expand the wireless capabilities of the company in more mobile areas like the bookstore and cafe where the layout often changes). One frustration is that for some reason when a machine is booted the local administrator needs to login for it to connect. Then he/she can log out and any user will be connected.

We’ve emailed Linksys for support on this one and are hoping it’ll be sorted out because it is very troublesome. Even me, one of the domain admins, can’t login to a machine that I didn’t install because I’m not the local admin.

Besides these 2 issues our current initiatives are going well.
