    Authentication Problem

    Baxtej, Is this Exchange server in the same network as where you are trying to access the email from? Is the account you are trying to access setup to use POP3 in AD? Are you using SSL and do you have the ports set properly on the client? In my experience most of the problems come up from...

    Distribution Group not on Address List

    brunanfm, To my understanding if you don't have an email address associated with the distribution group then it will not show up in the global address book. If you assign an email to the distribution group it will not make a new mailbox just an alias that will send the email to everyone within...

    rcpthosts error 5.7.1

    llcarse, There are a few different things that can cause this issue within an exchange setting and the biggest one appears to be how your email server is setup through your ISP. Some ISP require all your email be setup to be sent through them to help remove spammers. Check out this link on...

    emails to AOL/hotmail, etc bounce

    w4nnb1337, It does sounds like it is a NAT issue on your firewall. Either solutions that you have listed should work just fine. I would personally try to fix the NAT issue rather than changing my MX record with my ISP. If your NAT translation is wrong then by default it will use the Global...

    AD Computer Account Delegation/LDAP & ASP

    I added some java scripts that check to make sure that HTML, SQL, and JavaScript code aren't being sent to my domain controller that could possibly break it. If your server is totally internal there is no need for a firewall. Mike Walton Network+ CCENT Free Tech Articles at http://www.mikenetpc.com

    Command line - who is connected to my machine with Remote desktop?

    The way I do it can be more of a hassle but if you want to know the computer that is connecting to you, you can always user netstat -n the look down the table for port 3389 (which is the default terminal services port). Once you find that you will see the IP address of the computer then you can...

    Join domain - keep user's profile/settings

    To my knowledge I am not sure a way of doing it that wouldn't require coping the files. If all they want are their documents, desktop, and favorites then just copy those three folders to their new profile. c:\douments and settings\username\desktop c:\douments and settings\username\favorites...

    DHCP Help

    Are you using a server to administer the DHCP pools or are you using a router? You could always setup DHCP on the routers at the different branches to only give out internal IPs of that branch. I know you said that multiple DHCP servers is not a option so I don't know if you can use the mutiple...

    OWA SSL not working using lan ip, server 2003

    I believe that you are actually getting the Excahnge login screen. I have run in to an issue that sounds very similar to yours and if I understand correctly you are looking for the web login not a pop up window login. I think if you want to get the web login you have to do some additional...

    AD Computer Account Delegation/LDAP & ASP

    I think you have that pretty well covered. I am assuming that you web server is external or in a DMZ? If your web server is not in a DMZ I would highly suggest putting it there. Even most small business routers allow you to setup DMZs now. I have a similar setup with a web application that...

    Problem copying large file from WS2003 to external HD

    I know I have received that message before if the server is low on avalible RAM. I don't know if it is possible but have you tried rebooting the server and then copying the file? How big is your external hard drive and do you normally copy over the previous back up or do you keep a couple days...

    Creating Desktop Shortcuts

    Aquias, There are actually a few more attributes you can use with your script. Below is the code that I use to create my shortcuts. Set oWS = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell") sFile = "C:\MikeShortcut.LNK" Set oMLink = oWS.CreateShortcut(sFile) oMLink.TargetPath = "C:\Program...

    Running program with elevated Privileges

    Thanks for the suggestion, Tried that but the problem is that the program attempts to register the DLL and OCX files as part of its startup and it they error for any reason it will not run the program even though it would probably work. Thanks, Mike Walton Network+
