I do know of a few individuals who got into SAP through a self funded certification, and were then picked up by a consultancy. I also know a couple of individuals who joined an SAP project doing business process support, who then got into report writing and eventually ABAP. In my experience I...

I looked into doing this very thing a few years ago now and I seem to remember struggling with the creation of the password bit at database level (because it's incrypted). I have got a copy of some source code for bulk user deletions, so can let you know the files in question (on 31i anyway). I...

I can add that v11 doesn't work on NT, it prompts a message on install telling you that it will only install on w2k upwards.

Very interested to hear that 11 works on NT, it doesn't say that in the documentation anywhere. I have a further question which I was going to post regarding the V11 licenses I hold, are they retro install? Would my v11 licenses hold true if I reverted to v9? I have a v9 installation elsewhere...

Hi all, I wonder if anyone can help. Just recently I've made a section of the business wireless 802.11. However, I'm having real trouble getting the Wyse citrix terminals onto the wireless network. Now, I got hold of some wireless USB connectors and plugged 'em and and powered up. To no avail...

The best way to interface SAP is not to touch the database (it's very fragmented and not designed to be accessed directly) but instead to utilise the IDOCs that SAP itself uses. I'm not familiar with the HR IDOCs (intermediate documents) as I used to be an MM ABAPer. If you look on...

Thanks Curious, we did consider doing that except in an attempt to narrow the scope, one of the lads has set it to xxx.xxx.255.255 which we are going to have to trash and start over again. Thanks for any suggestions.

Thanks for responding comtec, that's what I feared. Cheers.

Hi all, we've recently increased our DHCP scope available IP address range. However, we've increased it too far and now would like to reduce it. However, when we reduce the range we get a message disallowing us from doing it because it's only possible to work in 32 address increments. Reducing...

Hi John, if you've not fixed this already I can offer my suggestions. I used to publish project updates to users without project installed using the export to GIF option. However, I was using Project 97 and the results were never very good (it's just way too buggy). I upgraded to Project 2002...

Rather than start a new post, I'm currently trying to do exactly this too. We have project central working but as yet can only update projects through the Project central browser which we run through a shortcut on the outlook bar. However, it isn't much good currently because users who have been...

Hi all, we've recently rebuilt an NT4 server which had Arcserveit 6.61 installed with OFA, and also OFA on two remote servers (they were backed up using the same tape drive). But, since the rebuild the two remote servers are complaining about licence violations which they weren't before. We do...

Thanks for your help chaps. I've eventually gotten to the bottom of this and the solution was a little dissapointing. Apparently the forwarding address needs to exist in an address book, auto forwarding won't work if you simply type an address in which hasn't been previously set up somewhere...

Thanks alot for the response Gafer, I'm looking into the configuration of the bridgehead server as we speak. Something that's come to light however which may put a slightly different spin on things is that it appears we are unable to autoforward to internal accounts as well. Is there something...

We're running Exchange 5.5 on NT servers downstream from a group bridgehead server. We are unable to auto forward emails to external Email addresses, so I spoke to the administrator of the group server who tested and corrected his server (presumably installed IMS, given it wasn't installed...
