Thanks to MS for artificial limits - such is life. We went with VMWare, that works much better than a dual-boot, allows them to keep working in the XP side, many other benefits.

Anyone have a hint if this is possible? We may have to go with VMWare to be able to support the old apps, may be a better way to go anyway. Still curious - is there a work-around or some way to put the client for Win98 on a 1 Gig RAM box? Thanks - Randy

I've been trying to install a Windows 98 system with client 3.32 on a Dell with 1 gig of RAM. This was to be a dual-boot with XP (which works well) but I ran in to several problems. The first was too much RAM for Win98 - fixed that by putting an entry in system.ini under [386enh]...

If the batch file doesn't run properly, modify it by getting rid of "@ECHO OFF", and all instances of ">> logtimes.txt" When you go to a command prompt and run the batch file, everything prints to the screen where hopefully you can tell me what doesn't work right. As far as...

This batch file can ONLY tell who is logged in at the time the file is run, if they are active or inactive, and the length of time they have been inactive. You can run it in your own session, or use the task scheduler to run it at specified times. We use it as a free way to tell when our...

We use several scrips that are auto-run to monitor some of our users: ...... begin batch file ................................. @ECHO OFF cd "C:\Reports\" setlocal enableextensions ECHO --------------------------------->>logtimes.txt ECHO Users logged on the server as of %TIME% on...

But if the GUI does NOT come up it means that Novell client doesn't find ANY evidence of a Novell network or that at the time of reboot, the NIC is not responding properly. There must be some evidence of Novell network traffic for the GUI to operate. Clearing connections won't help bring up...

Sometimes the network card needs a power-off reset. We have Dells with 3Com built-in NICs and Acers with Intell NICs. Almost ALL of the time, if we tell MS windows (95/98/98SE/2000) to shutdown and restart in DOS mode, the card is unavailable to the driver. I have seen times where there was a...

Thank you CitrixEngineer - I thought you were talking NT4, no problem. As far as updating the profile - the temporary profile gets updated as I change things. Every time I log out, the roaming (permanent?) profile is updated - everytime. An odd thing - Friday, as I was updating my local PC...

As far as I can tell - "roaming" seems to be updated, the cached copy at 'C:\Documents and Settings\RReimers' is updated as is the copy at 'C:\Profiles\IS\RReimers' every time I log out. I have Admin rights, verified on both profile areas as far as proper file rights are concerned. I...

I'm reasonably sure it is a goofy registry setting someplace that resets each time the server reboots. I just wish I could find it! 4MULA1, I looked in the registry where you pointed, that is just all people who seem to be logged into the server as of now. The profile is not stored in the...

CitrixEngineer - the profile must be updated - any changes I make to the desktop and other personal areas are saved, if I sign in and out, changes are kept, if I watch the temporary profile as another user, it disappears on logout, reappears on login as it is supposed to, changes as far as adds...

My profile is stored on the local Citrix server drive at C:\Profiles\IS\RReimers, the profile is not mandatory, could be roaming? but is not stored on any other server. This is where in 'User Manager", the 'Terminal Server Profile Path' says my profile is to be. chifu - I don't get any...

Thanks for the reply, but as far as I can tell, what little we have in the policies has nothing to do with this. Neither does it explain - all same day logins by any desktop user, whether logged out properly or 'killed', gets back their desktop with any changes made, including placement of...

We have a Win2k server with Citrix 1.8, latest version with all patches. The server gets rebooted every night to ensure the updates of NAV and some in-house programs. The next day, when I log in my personalized desktop has all the icons on the left, "My Documents" is back, and the...
