    External access to distribution list

    Found it! In ConsoleOne, the GWIA, SMTP tab. I should have enabled "Expand Groups on Incoming messages" under Address Handling Sorry for the noise.

    External access to distribution list

    Hi System Summary: GroupWise 6.5.6 running on NetWare 6.5 I'd like to set up a distribution list for e-mail alert purposes. I've created a distribution list and added the users. It works great internally when I send an e-mail to it, but not externally. The program wanting to send to this...

    Cryptographic Services missing / patch install problems

    I exported the Crypsvc key from a working Server, loaded it into the problem server and rebooted. Cryptography Services are back and started.

    Cryptographic Services missing / patch install problems

    I'm having problems installing patches. Searching points me towards Cryptographic Services and making sure it is started. The trouble is, my Win 2003 SP1 Server doesn't have this service listed and I can't seem to find out to add it. There's no crypsvc key under...

    More MS Security/printing problems with SP2

    Interestingly, this is in the Event Log when the login hangs The description for Event ID ( 39 ) in Source ( Cdm ) cannot be found. The local computer may not have the necessary registry information or message DLL files to display messages from a remote computer. The following information is...

    More MS Security/printing problems with SP2

    I installed KB810217, KB828749 and KB824145 on one of my W2KSP2/FR2 servers Now non-administrators with autocreated printers (the MD at home with his laptop) can't login - it appears to hang. It sounds a bit like Q823747, but I'm not sure. The server also complains about not being able to use...

    servers can't connect to Access based Farm

    OK, I've it. Next time, I'll read the docs properly or insist I go on a training course. Also there's some excellent stuff on www.thethin.net as I'm sure many of you know. http://www.thethin.net/faqs.cfm?category=3 Just in case any one else runs in to this, the solution was: dsmaint failover...

    servers can't connect to Access based Farm

    To cut a very, very long story short, I created a new host based Access file Farm on one of my Terminal Servers after W2K SP3 trashed my SQL Server. I did recover the SQL server from a recent image, but one of my servers was unable to connect to the Farm. I think it's an OBDC problem, but I'm no...

    Setting default printer

    I suppose the ideal solution would be something in the w2k policy that sets a default printer, so you could set up group or user policies under the mmc snap-in in the same way you set Control Panel restrictions. I assume such a thing doesn't already exist or someone would have jumped in and...

    Setting default printer

    Sorry just come back to tek-tips after an absence. When I had NT4/Citrix 1.0, I got fed up of users profiles getting trashed. When I moved to w2k/citrix XPS, I decided to sort it once and for all and reduce the number of support calls from people who don't know how to change their default...

    Applying Service Packs

    I think SP3 screwed up client printing for a lot of people, including me, so the advice from the seminar is good IMHO. Although having SP3 on the TS licensing server means that TS client licenses assigned after the service pack was installed will be freed after a period of time if you stop...

    DOS Client Problems

    It sounds like you're running into the same problems I had. I found that when I enabled windows sockets - see my previous post - things started to work. The main requisite seems to be working DNS and I think the client needs sockets for this to work. I'm using the 32-bit client on MSDOS 6.22...

    DOS Client Problems

    Alane6 This is how I added the Windows Sockets. I'm assuming that you've got MS Lanman installed with the DOS driver for your network card. I also assume that you've also found the setup program in c:\lanman.dos or wherever you installed it. run setup under CONFIGURATION menu, select network...

    Turns out I needed to enable windows sockets in the DOS client. It works fine now.
