IIS (Internet Information Server, the big-daddy to PWS) comes with Windows 2000 Pro, and PWS with Frontpage 97-2000, and with Windows NT Option Pack 4. The option pack can be downloaded and installed on a Win9x box (it is not supported on WinME, see KB Q266456) but will only install PWS. Here...

Even the links you visit are kept in the same history. If you start typeing an address up there you will get a drop down of not just the sites that you typed in, but also the ones you have visited. Here is a bit of my history: There may be something special that determines when it will be...

I am running Active Directory, and I know that edb log files are necassary for it to function, but I still have log files from over a year ago in there and they are building up. I thought circular logging was supposed to take care of this. Can I get rid of any of these? They are already...

Use Group Policy or RIS. If you use GP, under computer or user configuration and software settings you will find software installation. From there you can assign the update. I would assign it under the computer configuration area. Daniel Shackelford dshackelford@wchs.com "Built...

The only way to do this is to use JS in the header to preload images or objects. I don't think there is a way to make something load last. W/in the HTML everything is loaded in the order that it is hit in the document, top to bottam, left to right. Here is a thought though; If you do not...

There is not yet a tool for attaching text to a path, but you can use the FreeType ScriptFu to make your individual letters rotated and then put them together. Maybe they will add it in future releases. Daniel Shackelford dshackelford@wchs.com "Built noticin'-improved by practice...

TS does not map the Floppy or other RM to a drive w/in the TS session. THe only local mapping the TS will do is the printer. If the loacl drive is shared, you might be able to map those shared drives on a per user or computer basis. I am not sure about that. It just cam to me and I would...

DO you have any other products that require licenses? BackOffice? Those can cause the problem as well. Our Server runs per seat for all the cals for w2k but I had a single license VisualStudio installed on one of them. It comes with 10 cals so for some reason some of my clients could not...

Actually, if you are using group policy, then you are also using AD. Open the Domain Computers and Users MMC snap in and set up an OU (Organizational Unit) for the poor people that you want to lock down. Right click on the OU folder and select properties. There should be a tab that says Group...

I am not familiar with NetMeeting for remote admin, but I use VNC or TridiaVNC for that purpose (same program, different packaging), both are free to download. It is not as bulky because it is not intended for communication, only for remote admin. You also have the option to use Terminal...

You might try adding your users to the Printer Operators group. They will not have Admin rights in the domain, but can admin the printers, including adding and removing, purging, etc.

Are you getting this message on a client during an install, or on the server when you are installing RIS? What settings do you have for the "Client computer naming format" area on the server? Is the server that you have RIS installed on a DC? Are you using a username that is in the...

I have a server that has a dual processor mother board, but only hase one installed. I am running Windows 2000 Server and would like to add a processor. If I add another processor that is an exact match to the original, will Windows 2000 know that a processor has been added? Will I need to...
