    programmatically delete all saved passwords for IE for any user

    Due to some compliance requirements, I am now required to disable the "save usernames & passwords" option for IE on all my systems. That part I have figured out via creating a GPO. However, part of the compliance also states that I must remove any existing passwords that have previously been...

    Unable to edit custom attributes in ADSIEdit

    We recently upgraded our Active Directory from 2000 to 2003R2. Our schema was previously (in ver 2000) extended to include a handful of custom attributes. These attributes are still present in the 2003R2 schema, but we are unable to edit them using adsiedit if they contain a STRING value. Any...

    password synchronization (SSOD) problems

    I recently upgraded all of our domain controllers from Server2000 to Server 2003. Now we are having problems with our Windows-to-UNIX password synchronization. I installed and configured the Identity management for UNIX on the new windows servers, and added the appropriate UX boxes as "sync...

    VCenter, EVC, cpu masking, etc.

    We've run into a slight issue that I have not been able to dig up much information on. We are in the process of expanding our VMware farm from 4 to 8 servers. The original 4 servers are quad-socket quad-core Xeons (family E7340). We are running VMware ESXi 4.1 with VCenter server 4.1. The...

    Add alarm to all new meetings requests/appointments by default?

    I searched for this, but the only thread was one started back in 2005, so I am hoping that the answer has changed with newer versions. We are running Notes 8.5.1 and I am trying to figure out how to add an alarm/reminder to any new meeting request that I receive (and, hopefully, to add an...

    hardware type for disk-to-disk backups?

    I'm wondering what's the best disk type to use for D2D backups? We have the ability to use either 10 or 15K Fiber channel, or 7.2K SATA. I've done some googling but I'm not finding anything really difinitive as to which is the 'best' to use? We will be using BackupExec 12.x to backup a...

    Testing patches in VMware ESX?

    in light of the recent ESX 3.5 update 2 debacle -- what (if any) testing plan do you have for testing ESX patches in your production environment? 1. do you just install patches as they are released? 2. do you wait a specified time period after release to install? 3. install on one server...

    Should I join the Dark Side (i.e. management)?

    I have an opportunity to officially move into the "management" side of things and be, basically, the assistant director of IT at my company. I'm completely torn as to whether this would be a good move for me or not. I've always said I *never* want to go into management, I want to stay...

    barracuda & front-end/back-end config

    I have EX2K3 running in a front-end / back-end setup (one of each right now). My barracuda spam filter is currently set to forward incoming mail directly to the back-end server... should it be passing the messages to the front-end first, then letting the front-end transport the messages to the...

    I need to change the company name on all of my user accounts in AD (400+). Is there an easy way to do this, or am I stuck using CSVDE/ADSIedit (or doing it manually, yuck)?

    mapped drive not remembering credentials

    Hi, I have 3 XP Pro sp2 workstations that have a custom drive mapping to a NAS device on my network. This device runs a Linux kernel, so it doesn't handle AD authentication. I've created local user accounts for all 3 users on the device. When I created the drive mapping on each machine, I...

    files in RECYCLER taking up space?

    on my Win2003 file server, I have several files in my RECYCLER on each drive that are taking up much-needed space. I only see them when I run my TreeSize software (to show who/what is consuming disk space on the server) - the files don't show in Windows Explorer. The files look incredibly old...

We are seeing some REALLY strange things going on with Adobe 8 vs. our Sharp color printers. sometimes the job won't print at all, other times it prints all goofed up (e.g. send it in portrait format, it prints...

    large access database has no data?

    it's a 332MB database according to Windows, but when I open it, I don't see anything. The design master window doesn't come up, no forms, no tables, nuthin'! I've tried a compact & repair but it didn't help (although it decreased the size of the DB by about 50%). anything else I can do to...

    HighMAT (*.hmt) files conversion?

    I have a user who burned some image files to CD, and, not knowing any better, converted the images to HighMAT format (and deleted the original JPG's of course). Now the HMT files are too small, is there any way to convert them BACK into JPG or BMP or something useable? I've tried Windows Media...

    Page Faults in spoolsv.exe, how to find the culprit?

    I have a print server running Win2K3 sp1 that has about 50 shared printers installed. There's something that's causing the spooler service to generate gobs & gobs of page faults, eventually the spooler service just stops responding to requests. Jobs still pile up in the queues, but nothing...
