Simple task...query AD for a list of users in a specific group that I can then export to a .csv file to be imported into excel. I know AD can do this because I query it all the time to do this. My problem is that i have created a query in many different ways to look for users in a specific...

Thanks a ton!

I need to check if a file is renamed, then if it isn't rename it and copy a new file to the same directory. Something like this: IF EXIST C:\somefile.old THEN END ELSE COPY Q:\Somfile.new C:\somefile.new END but I do not know how to do this in a normal login script. Do I need a vbscript or...

Good morning all. I am looking for someone that would be able to help me in creating a specific query in SMS. I need this query to find all users of the domain who have not logged into a machine in 6 months. This would help me greatly in managing old or no longer needed user accounts. Any...

I am using IEAK. I'm just making sure that there isn't anything funny that I need to do with SMS because of the first bootup finishing the installation with admin rights. To clarify, Whenever you load a new version of IE on a machine, you have to boot the first time with Admin rights...

I am going to need to create and distribute a package for IE 6.0 SP1. I'm wondering if anyone has created and successfully deployed a package for this version of IE and what they can tell me to do for the best way to distribute it? Thanks, -J

Actually just run the setup that is already on there and it will give you the option to completely remove SMS and all components.

Does anyone know the best practice for creating a admin password change to distribute to the workstations? Help...thanks ;)

download the sms 2.0 support tools from http://www.microsoft.com/smserver/downloads/20/tools/spsupport/ install it. On your network logon script add the lines that will launch this with the /scrub command. This is the best way I have found to perform an uninstall of the client. The other two...

I can advertise a package that I created (god that is a painstaking process) and even get it to start unattended at the client once they logon but...I am having problems with a portion of the install. I uses sms installer to watch me install lotus notes client. I used an H:\ for the users data...

I resolved the problem by reinstalling the sms site server. I was using SQL 2000 but it has given me all types of problems. I went back to SQL 7.0 SP4. Everything runs smooth as a slip and slide. I would not recommend using SQL2000 what a pain in the butt. -J

Do you have the client agents and client installation methods configured properly? Check those as well. Also make sure that the schedules are set to run for the time periods you want.

I am having problems loading the base client components on machines all of a sudden. I get this error in the ccmim32.log : ********** CCIM32 - Starting maintenance cycle ********** $$<CCIM32><Thu Sep 12 09:59:23.631 2002><thread=2044 (0x7FC)> CClientSiteCfgArray - Initializing site list from...

I ran the 20clicln.bat a bunch of times on my winXP pc and it will not get rid of the extra icons left in the control panel. I have a lot of pcs around the campus that are having the same problem. I cannot reinstall the client on the machines because something is now preventing the install of...

Thanks man...I'll definitely try this out. Hopefully this works. Thanks, -J
