Hi, I've got webspace served from my webserver, and its primary purpose is just to serve up files in a simple manner so that remote people with only basic computer knowledge can easily get the data they need. I've got my inetpub\wwwroot directory, and any folder in there automatically appears...

Oh, a few more details: "Disable All Items" within Active Desktop is Disabled, and "Hide and Disable all items on the Desktop" is also Disabled. Herbie

Hi, I'm attempting to add a single icon to the desktop of a kiosk user. I started with the "Kiosk" user policy and the "Kiosk" machine policy. I enabled Active Desktop and I added the local URL of the link I wish to add to the desktop. I also specified a local URL for wallpaper. Neither...

Hi, I've got two Server 2003 domains in the same forest. I want to be able to create a shared drive on a computer in Domain A, and see it in Domain B. (By "see it", I mean that I want a computer in Domain B to be able to assign the share to a letter, just like it could with a shared drive in...

Hi, brand new to XSL. I can print the string I'm after with this: <td><xsl:value-of select="node/subnode"/></td> But, if I try to assign a variable like this, it returns an error: <xsl:variable name="GetNode" value-of select="node/subnode" /> Is this a simple syntax error? Thanks!!! Herbie

Oops: the last paragraph should read like this: The Group Policy Results Wizard summary, for **USER**, shows 2 policies with unknown names (it appears to show a GUID) blocked for reason "Inaccessible".

I've created a new OU called "Kiosk". I've created a user inside it called "KioskUser", and I've moved the computer inside it, and renamed the computer to "KIOSK001". I've got a Kiosk-User and a Kiosk-Computer policy. I've linked those to the Kiosk OU. "Enforced" is turned on for each...

I create the Kiosk policy, then I right-click on the domain and select "Link an Existing GPO". Then I select the Kiosk policies for both User and Computer. I set the filters on these policies so only those computers and users I'm interested in may be affected by the policy. That's not...

That's getting warmer; thanks for the help. I can figure out how to access the Group Policy console and how to create and filter the "Kiosk" policy. I also added users and computers in question to a "Kiosk" security group. The scope of the "Kiosk" policy is being enforced for the "Kiosk"...

Hi, I'm using Windows Server 2003 and Windows XP clients. I'm trying to set up some computers for public use. They should only be able to do two things: 1) Open IE and browse certain websites. 2) Open and use a certain application. Here's some things they should not be able to do: 1)...

Hi, I'm thinking that there must be a better way to ensure that all computers have the most recent Windows Updates installed other than going to each client machine, logging on as a user with Administrative rights, and setting an automatic download time, or manually checking for and installing...

Hi, my 50-user domain was recently added to a spammers' blacklist and I'm not sure why. About two weeks ago I upgraded from Exchange 2000 to Exchange 2003. I added an additional IP address to hit our computer, but it's only for Outlook Web Access traffic, and only Port 80 is allowed. From the...

the internal IP address doesn't work. to get to OWA, I'm using: http://servername/exchange/username I just got it solved: I had to reboot the DC with the Global Catalog on it and it worked great.

Oh, one more thing: On the client machines, I tried going to Control Panel->Mail to mess with the server name that the Outlook was pointing to. It returns the error "The name could not be resolved. The bookmark is not valid." In this dialog, I tried entering both the server name and...

Hi, I just migrated my entire domain's worth of servers from Server 2000 to Server 2003, and from Exchange 2000 to Exchange 2003. Users can send and receive email via Outlook Web Access, but users cannot connect to their mailboxes via Outlook, within the intranet. Their computers can access...
