Well or 3 new VMware ESX3.02 hosts & SAN are up & running. Our 15 existing servers have been converted & we are very happy with it all. The performance of the virtual machines is all that was promised & a bit more that I expected. The contractor who set it all up has applied all the necessary...

We have had a SAN (EMC) installed today. As we are new to SAN's and all that gows with them I was wondering what "regular maintenance" tasks are required to keep one "running at peak performance"? We are going to run VMware ver 3.x on 3 x Dell 2950 servers in conjuction with the san. Any...

We are testing the latest version of Symantecs AV products. With very little success I might add. It's agreat thing, You install the server & get it running then deploy the client from the server(so the server can see the client pc at this time). Re-start the client once it's all done & dusted...

Over the last week or so our ISA 2004 server has been giving us som grief. The proxy service just seem to stop. In the services applet it appears to be running. If you stop & restart the service it still doesn't seem to run. We have to do a full re-start of the server to get it running each...

We are running BE10d with the respective agenst installed & all remote servers are able to be backed up except the ISA server. Does any body know what has to be done at either end to get this to happen? I have had a quick search in Google for the issues but haven't found a solution. The...

Have a look at a program called SecureCopy. We are migrating data at present and have found it so easy it's not funny. It does user data, all permissions and shares also. It is making a hard job easy. ChrisK

I believe that you need to have a lin in the users login script to create the drive mapping for them. Try this one:- echo Linking Drive H: to users home directory NET USE H: /HOME The drive can be any you choose.
