What remote tool are you using? The Terminal services? What Active Directory Menu are you talking about? Sites and Services or Users and Computers or Domains and Trusts?

I am trying to do achieve a very simple thing (or so I thought...) I want all my Domain Users to be LOCAL administrators on the client machines. I created an OU and added all the computers into it. For that OU I created a Group Policy where I modified the Restricted Groups. They look like this...

When I try to shutdown one of my domain-controllers it closes all tasks, startbar and desktop closes but then hangs at the windows background with the mouse being still active and does not shutdown. Ive waited for around 20 minutes - nothing. How long does it usually take to power off a...

I have a strange problem with backup exec 8 I recently installed I do a complete backup and verify job. The backup runs through fine The verify runs through fine The protocoll gives me no errors but the result of the job is failure. I first thought it would be the verify that failes. so I...

NickRock You should look into something like norton ghost or imagecast. This will do an image of your whole hardisk. With this you can have a 1 Gig harddrive installation up and running in about 5 to 10 minutes again. Disadvantage is that you have to boot with a special boot disk create the...

Does anybody know what Network Card (Manufacturer/Model) is PXE enabled? I would like to try out the remote installation services but I doubt that I have a Network card with a PXE ROM. I would like to have a NIC which really has this ROM not a card that emulates it. Does anybody have a list...

For your first question: could you give us some details on your login script? For your second question: You should assign local Administrator rights to your Clients The easiest way to do this is to open the LOCAL administrator Group and add your DOMAIN user there. This is something not quite...

I have solved this problem by telling my users to share their local hard drives with the Letter of the drive as the sharename. I've then added a logon script onto the terminalserver that will automatically map those drives. To find the correct clientname I used an environment variable. I think...

I think this is related to your Access query not the MSflexgrid. I would try to hunt the problem down in your database queries and eliminate it there.

If you are using an ISDN line and analogous modems connected to a a/d converter the speed will never go over 33600 even if your modem could go faster. If you are using ISDN lines I would recommend using true ISDN devices instead.

Samara, could you enlighten us all how ICS is technically working? Is this not some kind of NAT as well?

1. Why don't you just put your regular user account into the local administrator group on this machine. Then you will be able to shutdown as well as logging off. 2. I am not sure if you can do this on a win2k server... On a Win2K workstation the installation will ask you if you are the only...

So you are saying that the router is configured for dialling on demand? Then it could be anything from a dns or netbios request to automatic mail checking... You could setup a firewall on the router to filter any unwanted traffic.
