Change the logical Name of a MS SQL database



The process to change the logical name for the database and the log file is  the same 


ALTER DATABASE [DataBaseName] 
   MODIFY FILE ( NAME = OldLogicalName, 
      NEWNAME = NewLogicalName );

ALTER DATABASE [DataBaseName]  
   MODIFY FILE ( NAME = OldLogicalNameLog, 
      NEWNAME = NewLogicalNameLog );

NMAP

It's been about 15 years since I used NMAP, I forgot how useful the tool is. To find out what services are running on an IP address simply use something like nmap -n -v -p1-10000 x.x.x.x -n tells nmap not to do name resolution (saves about 13 seconds if the IP you're scanning isn't in DNS_ -v verbose -p1-10000 says scan ports 1 to 10,000 (otherwise nmap will only scan the first 1000 ports)
