While the answer could be in your post, I didn't read it closely because I want to know something else. Please open a CMD prompt (Start | Run | CMD.EXE), type ROUTE PRINT, then post the results here. Note: I'm only interested in the routes: 192.168.1.0 and 192.168.0.0 i.e., don't include...

For the "No Domain Servers..." at the remote site - assuming the domain server is on the local network, you'll get this when the tunnel isn't up, for sure. When the tunnel is up, and you still get the message, try setting the primary and secondary WINS server on the client machine. You...

On one machine at each side of the VPN endpoint, open a Command prompt, and type: PING -t OtherLanMachineIP You'll start getting a lot of "timeouts". Leave this window alone for now (when you're done, Ctrl-C will stop it). Open another DOS prompt at both machines. Type: ROUTE ADD...

Yes, you can do this with LinkSys BEFSX41 (or VP41). I've been talking about this very thing in the General Security discussion. thread83-492522 I'll watch this post. Let me know.

Great! One comment before we look at your issue; Antidote (Joe) said that there was trouble with multiple tunnels accessing different machines - this sounds like a sore state of affairs, indeed, and would really put into question why this device provides multiple tunnels at all. Before I replied...

Within the last few months, I've set up firewalls for different locations using LinkSys firewall + VPN products. The reason I went with LinkSys was cost; buying upgrades for our current SonicWalls + adding a remote SonicWall w/VPN would have cost over a thousand dollars. In contrast, LinkSys...

It is possible to create a Windows 2000 installation CD with SP2 *integrated* into the installation - meaning that perhaps you could get cabinet.dll by creating one of these (I think it's called SlipStream). Since you got most of your files restored, I'm betting you're in significantly better...

I don't see a policy that does this, but here are some twisted suggestions. Try "forcing" Active Desktop, then overlaying the desktop with a page of your choice. Though, the save wouldn't be stopped. http://www.winguides.com/registry/display.php/642/...

There are a number of "undelete" utilities that can allow you to recover deleted files, even if gone from the recycle bin (or they never went there). If this is an option you are open to, please consider, before restarting the server. You are correct - once restarted, it will surely...

Two suggestions included. Realizing that WINS is officially sneered at by MS in Win2k, with 800 workstations, I'm assuming at least some of them are Windows 98 (thus requiring WINS). WINS record type 0x03 identifies the user (and workstation, it seems) name. Assuming that none of your...

danmoran: Thank you for your suggestion. One of the first things I considered was this approach, but we don't need redundant printers (they're spread all over the building) - we need redundant connections (on multiple servers) to the *same* printer (ideally with automatic fallover - just like...

With the AT command, verify two things for me: You are using the /INTERACTIVE switch This will allow you to see the command as it runs. Use your test batchjob, and put a PAUSE command in it. For example, it would be useful to see, if you're doing DEL *.*, that the prompt "Are you sure...

There's something else that can cause very long login times - Kerberos UDP packets being dropped by a router on the network. The MS KB article doesn't mention this symptom, but I guarantee it's been the root problem so many times it's worth mentioning (though under no circumstances take this to...

Thank you, everyone, for your feedback; it is very much appreciated.
