Hello, I am not sure if this is the right forum, but I will start here. I have a WAN spread over ten sites. For internet use, it's hub/spoke. Nine of the sites come back through their own dedicated 10mb link to the main site. The internet link is a 20mb dedicated line from the main site. It is...

Thanks for the replies. The switch is a Cisco 3560 and I have made sure the duplex and speed settings are the same on both pieces of equipment. The WAP was set for auto as was the switchport. When the NetTool is connected between both devices, utilization on the side coming from the switch is...

I have a Cisco Aironet 1100 that whenever I connect to the network, the network is brought to it's knees with apparent broadcast packets. I connected the AP to one end of a Fluke NetTool and the other end to the switch. The activity lights on the side of the tool that the switch was plugged...

Thanks. That is what I was afraid of. I CAN boot to the NTSF partition (using NTFSDOS Pro) and see that all of the files are still there. But when I go to boot the server, it complains that windows\system32\config\system is not there. Which I think is the registry. It IS there, but perhaps it is...

Hello, One of my backup active directory servers suffered a hard drive error. While attempting to rebuild the RAID container, we hosed the container. And all the data that was on it. Without a backup. Ok... no need to laugh (well, as long as I don't have to hear you). We know we screwed up...

We have had a failure of some board component (as per a service call to Dell) on our PE 2550. We have a spare PE2450. Is it even remotely possible to put the drives from the 2550 into the 2450 and get the system to boot. Or am I just asking for data corruption. We will not get a replacement...

Performed several nltest query's with no errors returned. Thanks for the suggestion.

We have ten remote sites in a star configuration. Our remote DC's, which are on seperate subnets, are not getting their GPO's. The problem seems to be that they are trying to get the GPO from themselves and not from the other DC's in their site (which contains the DC's from the MAIN site, where...

Is there a way to successfully configure frame relay to send a Wake on LAN broadcast packet (a "magic packet") across a WAN link using Cisco equipment. I realize that more information might be required to answer this question :) For example, site A would like to be able to wake up pc's in site...

Folks, After a couple months of testing, I am planning on moving forward with the installation of Exchange 2003 into our live environment. Currently, we are running Gordano NT mail and are not migrating any data or user accounts to Exchange. This is a fresh, new install of one Exchange 2003...

Well, I went ahead and punted... I have this sinking suspicion when I, in error, created a SMTP Connector, then removed it. It all went south about then. Thankfully I am installing this on a test domain before we go live with it. So I am going to wipe both the domain controller and Exchange...

We are using Websense... but not for the staff IP range, which this server is on.

Hello All, I have read through some of the postings on this issue, and none of the suggested fixes have worked so far. So I am starting a new thread, hopefully to get a few new ideas. First off, this is a new installation of Exchange, the first in our organization. We have one Exchange 2003...

THATS what sites and services are for. Duh!! Thank you, Joseph. I think I am now heading in the right direction. Too cool... Thanks again! Tony

We have a Server 2003 AD network consisting of one domain across a WAN to ten different locations. We have four domain controllers across located throughout these ten locations. We are curious as to whether or not we can force a group of computers (running XP pro) to request its login and group...
