- 350+ win2k and xp machines on a 2kadv server network (Also win98se/2kPro Dual boot system at home)
 | really? I used partition magic on my home machine to create a 98SE FAT32/ 2K Pro NTFS dual boot system with no problems at all. - had to resize the NTFS partition several times before I got it right and the machine has been beautifully stable for about 18 months …  |
| | VMWare is the way to go - lets you try almost anything before you commit. We use this a lot at work to try out network solutions before we commit them to the live domain - very very cool.  |
| | Hi all, Strange problem with one of our Win 2K3 servers. All seems to be working well, except that, having logged on via RDP, I cannot log off. (I prefer to log off RDP sessions rather than disconnect, because then I leave a session space free for another admin if … |
| | Hello All, Now then - this is a nasty one. We run a windows domain with 2003 Enterprise servers and XP Pro clients. About a year ago we removed all the floppy drives from our client machines and installed some swish new USB2.0 adaptors in their place, and started issuing … |
| | Hi all, On site, we use a web proxy/cache box, which is supposed to authenticate users (via LDAP queries) against one of our Win2K3 AD servers. How would I log the receipt of and response to these LDAP queries on the server? Basically I need to check to see that … |
| | What sort of results do your users achieve if they try to ping [url]www.google[/url] .com from the command line? |
| | Hi all, How's this for a bizarre problem. I have a Samsung P28 laptop with Radeon mobility 9100 graphics. Windows XP Pro - fully updated with all the latest chipset and graphics card drivers. It has a weird intermittent fault whereby sometimes the LCD screen is corrupted although the display … |
| | Try searching your entire hard drive(s) for all sound files (.wav , .mp3 etc.) and try everyting you find tilyou locate your noise. at least then you'll be able to tell where it is on the disk and that should help us all find a way to get rid of … |
| | For the network administrators out there:- If you use XP clients and a windows 2000/2003 server, after applying SP2 to clients you will find that any Internet Explorer Maintenance Group Policies will fail if you also use Folder Redirection policies. Thanks for that Microsoft...... |
| | Onour Windows 2000 domain (XP SP2 clients), we map a network folder to a drive to provide a documents folder for all users. Some users experience a problem where (even tho drive mapping and folder redirection is successful) the icons for their files keep disappearing, then shortly afterwards, re-appearing. Various … |
| | Bit of an odd one this. Running Windows XP Pro on a single workstation. My MATSHITA DVD-ROM SR-8584A was working fine the other day, but now it is convinced it is only a CD ROM. The diagnostic tools I've run also seem to insist it is a cd-rom. I haven't …  |
| | Hi all, running a windows 2000 domain, with 2000 adv server on DC's and XP Pro clients. Proxy server and home page for Internet Explorer 6 sp1 is set via group policy, but it fails to apply for new users after a change to the GPO that applies it (we …  |
| | Hi, just a quickie - does anyone know if my Win 2K Advanced server will require a restart after installing the Connection Manager Administration Kit? Kinda mission critical to avoid restarting this box between certain hours, but I'd really like to install CMAK today if I can.  |
| | Hello - here's my problem - trying to set up a lil bit of code that checks win2k disk quota and warns user if they are approaching their disk space threshold. here's the code - (cut down for simplicity - this version doesnt really do much but should work) Dim … |
| | What network are you connecting to? If you only use this computer for the internet then it looks like someone has set themselves up with remote access to your machine (which is NOT good) That weird looking entry looks very much like an un-resolved Windows2000 Active directory SID (basically a … |
| | I'm guessing either that your RAM is slower than your motherboard supports (perhaps too slow for your CPU), or that the web-site you used is just red-flagging when it shouldn't be (i.e. a bug in their code) When you say it was fine before, do you mean you've never had … |
| | Hi - this is really a revival of an old thread as it seems to have died in terms of interest. In short - I have a dual boot Win98SE/Win2kPro system ( Win98SE was installed first) Win98SE is now completely broken :cry: - almost impossible to repair as it suffered … |
| | HI all, Oops - My win98se/2kPro dual system at home was running fine (service packed and updated to the hilt) until I installed a new graphics card (Radeon 9600 128MB) - now - Win2k - no problem - all working Win98Se - NOT happy. So - anyone know if I … |
| | Re: file wont delete Sounds a lot like a virus - active and running on your system - use regedit and look in HKLM/Software/Microsoft/Windows/CurrentVersion/Run for references to the file.... |
| | What drive letters are your cd drive(s) mapped to? do you by any chance have a dvd drive called D: and a cdrw drive called E: that might explain it...... |
| | Re: VB Executible You can set options to install the .NET framework with your application if you use VisualStudio to build an install package too. Means that your app should install and work on a machine regardless of whether or not the .NET framework is present. |
| | hello - not been on for a while I suspect that my machine (win2k) may be contaminated with spyware and the like. could anyone recommend a good (preferably freeware) tool for scanning and/or removing this stuff? My Norton firewall etc. doesnt seem to be enough to keep me secure.... Thanks … |
| | Apologies if this was easy to find out elsewhere. I am trying to write a small script that can be run on our network by each user, which captures their user login name and uses this to look up in a spreadsheet of all users to provide them with info … |
| | hello peeps We are currently trying to catch the little jobbie who keeps printing swastikas form a variety of printers on the school network - anyone got any ideas how to force the network to stick the username of the printing user at the bottom of each document printed? Ta. … |
| | Anyone know at which point during the Windows XP startup the Windows Script Host loads? having problems with a startup script which refuses to run on our network, and suspect that we may be trying to run it before WSH is in place...... |
