Change RDP Port Number

Here’s a quick reference to change the remote desktop protocol port number. This is helpful if you have multiple servers you need to access on a corporate LAN or if you want to create a backdoor for your business computer. Make sure to open the port in your firewall too!

1. Start Registry Editor.
2. Locate and then click the following registry subkey:
HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\TerminalServer\WinStations\RDP-Tcp\PortNumber
3. On the Edit menu, click Modify, and then click Decimal.
4. Type the new port number, and then click OK.
5. Quit Registry Editor.

Align Image Vertically with Text using CSS

Most people will try to wrap the text with a span class and try to vertically align it.

When what you really have to do is apply the class to the image instead.

For example:

  1.  
  2. <style>
  3. .imageMiddle {
  4. vertical-align:middle;
  5. }
  6. </style>
  7.  
  8. <div>
  9. <img src="pic.jpg" class="imageMiddle" />Some Text
  10. </div>
  11.  

Enjoy!

Delete Post From RSS Feed Display Box

Well, the quick answer is..you can’t! I found this out the hard way after creating a test post in my Worpress blog and then deleting it. If you display your RSS feeds using MagpieRSS (or any other display box), this can be a real problem!! The problem being that it will break the RSS display box!!

To avoid this in the future, here are the only 2 options I can think of:

1. MODIFY the post instead of deleting it. You can always just modify the post to read “post removed”. Just make sure to keep the ID and stuff in tact. More than likely, you already deleted the post and found your way to this one.

2. Create a new blog entry. Once I created a new entry, the display box was fixed! You might need to create enough entries beyond the displayed number in the box. For example, my display box has 3 entries at all times. You might need to create 3 or more new entries to fix the display box (depends how many you display).

Firewall Greyed out in SBS Environment

Yet again a case where SBS trys to think for you. Like me, you probably checked the default domain policy and found nothing under firewall and started to scratch your head.

Go here:

Server Mgmet > Advance Mgmt > Group Policy > right click SBS Firewall > Edit > then browse to the Group Policy under Network Connections

You can edit the policy and get your firewall settings for your users back..or simply delete the GPO and work in the default policy as normal.
