    USB Printer

    I don't know of any method right off hand to grant only that right, but if the user is going to be connecting to the domain when they logon with the first time their domain account, you could place the Domain Users group in the local Administrators group. Then take the vbscript below and place...

    Missing %PROGRAMFILES% variable

    The "SET" command sets a variable for that session. To see this, open a cmd window and type set Test=Test, then type "set". You will see the variable set. Close the cmd window and reopen it, type set and it is no longer there. I actually remembered that the %PROGRAMFILES% variable is a...

    Missing %PROGRAMFILES% variable

    I believe that SFC is for verifying system files. Thanks anyway.

    Missing %PROGRAMFILES% variable

    I have a Win2k Pro PC where the %PROGRAMFILES% variable is missing. Does anyone know where this is stored on the PC? I assumed it was HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Environment but it isn't.

    Change Novell Password missing from context menu

    The client's with the option in the context menu aren't getting the message to hit Ctl-Alt-Del. The message you are referring to is when you have the User Administration and the Change Password setting under HKLM\Software\Novell\... enabled. This is a seperate entry up near the top of the menu...

    Change Novell Password missing from context menu

    I am trying to figure out why the "Change Novell Password" option is missing out of the pop-up context menu from some Novell clients. They range from the 4.83 SP1 to 4.92 SP2. Normally you would get this option if you right click the Network Neighborhood icon on the desktop or the red N in the...

    remotely install File and printer sharing on a workstation

    Me too. I have taken snapshots of the reg keys/values that are created, but it seems to be more of a dynamic process on a workstation to workstation basis. I have about 1500 I need to install it on that have been in a Novell only world that is going AD and need to find a way to automate this.

    SOHO 6 and MUVPN not connecting

    That is what I thought too. $200 for five licenses. If you haven't spent it yet, dump the SOHO and get a PIX. You'll save money and nerves.

    Firebox X Edge MUVPN help needed

    You have two NAT devices working here. The MUVPN client reaches the x.168.111.0 subnet, but that is as far as it goes. Unless you were to establish a rule within Win Proxy (and I am not familiar enough with it to say on way or another) to route all inbound traffic from the MUVPN client's...

    Firebox X Edge MUVPN help needed

    Please list your IP address configuration for all of the interfaces on the Firebox and the Win Proxy PC. On the public addresses, hide the first octet (Example: x.10.109.30 255.255.0.0) This will help to explain what is going on.

    Win2k boot fails with new RAM

    On a board that old, I seriously doubt 133 will work. Check Pricewatch.com for some PC100. It was really cheap too.

    Win2k Pro Dell C600 renaming itself?

    anewguy, If you have one that is doing it, before changing anything, go under the System Properties -> Computer Name tab -> Change button -> More button and see what it has listed for the NetBIOS name. See if it differs from what is shown on the Computer Name tab. I'd like to see what this...

    Firebox X Edge MUVPN help needed

    If you can ping the external NIC on the Windows box that is behind the WatchGuard from an MUVPN client, but not any internal addresses that are behind the Windows box, then the problem is with the Win Proxy software. Have you configured Win Proxy to pass the traffic you intended or all traffic...

    SOHO 6 and MUVPN not connecting

    Here is what I did: On page 107 of the manual for the SOHO 6 it says in step 5: Type the virtual IP address in the applicable field. The virtual IP address is the same as the IP address on the Trusted Network Configuration page. This doesn't work (nor does it make any sense). The IP address...
