Weclome to C-Net Consulting.

This is not your typical blog. Here I post the fixes that I've happened across in the wild and here on the 'Nets. It's very possible that you'll find stuff here that's actively on other sites. I'm not intending to steal content. my intent is to have a secure place that i can access anywhere - even from my blackberry - that I know will always be up. Every tech has driven out to a site and realized he forgot his #@$%^ flashdrive - then tried to go to the source website only realize the data he needed was blocked or no longer online. I hope this helps someone. As long as I am tech somewhere, this information will be available.
