Mijn.Host
After the recent price changes I’ve been searching.
No more Neostrada (= Versio = TWS) for me.
Never again!
I also decided to move all my clients to their own hosting accounts and packages. I started using the services of mijn.host myself. Much faster, Litespeed servers, easy Directadmin environment and affordable.
Takes time to move, but so worth it.
That’s all folks!
Have a nice day…
PS. update 28 november 2023:
Whoppaah, and another >20% added for whatever reason!
So glad I switched to mijn.host!
Robocopy Quirks
Old-fashioned, but I still use batchfiles to automate tasks on my computer. One of them is a backup mirroring script, using the robocopy command. Recently I wanted to add a folder from C:\Program Files\appname\ to the backup, so I added the following line to the backup-script:
Robocopy "C:\Program Files\appname\" "\\SERVER\Backup\LAPTOP\appname\" /MIR /XJD /R:8 /W:15 /MT:32 /BYTES /V /NP /LOG:log-LAPTOP-appname.log
However this did not work, what’s the problem? Who knows… but the solution is to add a space before the closing end-quote. So just use:
Robocopy "C:\Program Files\appname\ " "\\SERVER\Backup\LAPTOP\appname\ " /MIR /XJD /R:8 /W:15 /MT:32 /BYTES /V /NP /LOG:log-LAPTOP-appname.log
On another note, check this, and use (also note the * and not *.* !!!):
"C:\Program Files\7-Zip\7z.exe" u -r -up0q3r2x2y2z1w2 -mx=0 -password Z:\somefile.zip "C:\Somefolder\*"
That’s all folks!
Have a nice day…

How to clear the DNS cache on your computer
This article describes how to clear the DNS cache on your computer.
Many computer operating systems use caching to store DNS lookup results. Normally this is not a problem, and accelerates network performance.
