I beleive I've found the solution that worked for me. Had to create a new forward zone, add the A records for those servers I needed to get to and then change the configurations in the DNS configurations on all my clients to look at that new forward zone. That's working for now.

Currently I don't have any zones setup under "Forward Lookup Zones" so how would I add this alias?

I'm installing a new DNS onto an existing Win NT 4 domain that is using external DNS's and an internal WINS. I need to resolve the name of a server on another network to an IP so my users can use the web pages on it. How can I add that info to this new DNS? Tried adding a reverse lookup...

I can get that far, but how do I set the setting of the task manager to hide when it's minimized and isn't always on top? Without having to go to each computer?

Isn't there a way to make the task manager start minimize when the user logs in?

Dug around the SQL server and found a trigger that uses the same table at the same time. Removed it and now watching for the delay. Thanks!

I've been able to get some more logging in place with the applications that are connecting to the SQL tables. According to their logs, they are showing a 2 second delay in writting a record to one of the tables. What can cause a delay in writting a record to SQL?

The tables are being reindexed nightly, during low usage times. There was a job on SQL running the reindex that I forgot about. It's not reindexing any system tables, though. I'll have to check into that. Question: I'm showing two applications whose CPU and Memory Usage figures always...

I have the default maint. plans on the databases that run every night. The server itself was defraged about a two weeks ago. I will try another defrag tonight. Not quite sure on how to shrink and re-index the databases. I checked to see that the indexes on the tables used was there but...

Got a real brain-twister here, I think. I have a third party application that writes and reads from another workstation to/from two databases on separate SQL 2000 server. For the past two weeks, it has become very "sensitive" to anything else using SQL on that server. The writers of...

This is a guess but I use to have some similar problems. It was due to lack of indexes on the tables and how the transaction log handles data. I made indexes on all the fields I searched by, plus set up primary keys. As for deleting a lot of records at a time, the short answer is you...

Anyone know how to control which monitor displays an application opens up on where there dual monitors? Right now, I can drag the windows but I am wondering if there is something like a registry setting that governs this.

KirkRock, I'm wanting to do this without having to create all the user's profiles on the PC. bcastner, In the documentation you pointed me to, it appears that there either has to be a Windows 2000 server as a domain controller involved and/or in an Active Directory environment. Don't have a...

I'm trying to change where the My Documents folder points to but the Folder Redirection option is not showing up in my Group Policy MMC. I've tried re-registering the DLL (C:\WINDOWS\system32\fde.dll) but it still doesn't show up. Only thing I can think of is that I'm not in a Win 2K domain...

I don't understand.
