OKay.... i found another GPO question on here and it referred me to GPOguy.com. Looking thru the trouble shooting area of the site i came across this: "1. Your AD domain controllers are not correctly registered in DNS. While it may not seem like there is any relationship btw GPO and DNS, there...

Yeah, i've run the gpupdate and nothing. It does it's thing, i get all excited... go check.. and nada. Gpresult provides nothing either. I dont think it's getting to the computers at all. Dave Presley Network & Systems Administrator Premier, Air Academy & Thomas Jefferson High Schools...

As it stands we have server 2003 installed on the DL140 server box. I have DNS, DHCP and active directory up and working. The ip scheme we're using is 10.0.0.X/255.0.0.0/10.0.0.1. The servers IP 10.0.0.5. The computers netbios name is DC and the domain name is tjhs.com. dc.tjhs.com is the...

Okay... so. We have a DC setup with the naming convention: school.premier.air.com (yeah..i know, i know.. it's SO not right.) I've joined the workstations to the "school" domain. The domain is a small one.. 50 clients. 90% of the time a workstation can get a lease, but sometimes can't...

Er... um... nevermind. Did another search and found a bunch of similar posts. I blew out the heating foils in the back of the laptop and whammo.. i can hear the fan again. Heat related lockups and shutdown. CIAO! Dave Presley Network & Systems Administrator Premier, Air Academy & Thomas...

I have a Toshiba Satelite Laptop, running XP pro. It's a relatively new computer and all the service packs are up to date. It randomly freezes. Every once in a while it will reboot spontaneously, but more often than not it just freezes and I have to push the power button 5 seconds to get the...

Yeah.. thats what i thought. It's not working. :( I'll try what he recommended and post back here. Thanks a ton Dave Presley Network & Systems Administrator Premier, Air Academy & Thomas Jefferson High Schools dpresley@qwest.net MCP

Okay... still have the problem. I think it may be the modem driver. Theres an onboard modem and a second on a pci card... I think i may have disbled the wrong one.. DOH! Dave Presley Network & Systems Administrator Premier, Air Academy & Thomas Jefferson High Schools dpresley@qwest.net MCP

Do you have to search for them in AD, sort them how you want them before people in the domain will be able to search for them? Dave Presley Network & Systems Administrator Premier, Air Academy & Thomas Jefferson High Schools dpresley@qwest.net MCP

Oay... I'm gonna swap out the ram and the power supply and let ya know how it works out. Thanks for the input and insight. I dont think it could be blaster could it? I reformated the drive. ??? Dave Presley Network & Systems Administrator Premier, Air Academy & Thomas Jefferson High...

I have a win2k domain set up with AD, DNS and DHCP up and running. When I set up print devices, i check the box to include in AD, but I can't find them when I try to find a printer. Any thoughts? Dave Presley Network & Systems Administrator Premier, Air Academy & Thomas Jefferson High Schools...

What would cause a computer to reboot over and over just after loading windows 2k? I've replaced the cmos batt. I've fdisk reinstalled and it's still doing it. Single beep on start up.. looks to start normally but as soon as the windows load bar gets to the end, it restarts itself. Loading...

Yeah... im the domain admin. I can create, edit and delete GPO's. I created a new OU... called it GPO OU... and there is the tab... i was looking on the USER folder under the domain. That doesnt have that tab. :-( Dave Presley Network & Systems Administrator Premier, Air Academy & Thomas...

There are changes in the user and the computer noe of the GPO. I did end up putting computers and users in the OU that has the GPO applied... read and apply checked. Still not working. :-( I'll check out running gpresult and see what i can see. Thanks Dave Presley Network & Systems...

It's DOING nothing.. hehe.. Im trying to just lock down some items on the host computers. They're computers in a LAB and im wanting to prevent access to control panels, keep from changing the wallpaper. Simple stuff... Dave Presley Network & Systems Administrator Premier, Air Academy &...
