    Our company is annexing an external warehouse, and is planning to install a basic network there to support LAN-connected inventory control systems.

    Is there any way on any of the following Catalyst switches to log all commands entered by someone in Privileged and/or Config mode to a syslog server? 4507 3750 2950 2900XL The only solution I've found requires Event Manager, which none of these switches has. Thanks!

    Cisco Aironet - Multiple SSIDs and WEP keys

    Our wireless network is based on Cisco Aironet 1200 wireless access points. We have several VLANs set up on each, and each has its own SSID and WEP key. We've noticed that, if you set up one SSID on your computer but use the WEP key from a different VLAN on the same AP, you can authenticate to...

    Two separate forests on the same subnet

    Can two separate Active Directory forests coexist on a single subnet within the same LAN without interfering with each other? Computers in both would all have static IP configurations (mostly XP, with a couple NT4) with manually-configured DNS and WINS entries. We have an existing domain that...

    Run a script at first logon only

    We have a logon script we would like to run for each user ONLY the first time they log onto any computer in our domain. The script runs Outlook 2003 and invokes a .PRF file to automatically configure Outlook with their mailbox information. We do not use roaming profiles, so a new profile is...

    RC1 in existing Active Directory domain

    We're evaluating Vista RC1 (Build 5600) in a couple virtual installations, and would like to take the next step: join them to our Active Directory domain. That will allow easier access to our networked apps and our ISA server, and give us a chance to put them through some real usability...

    I've just started at a company running a few Linux servers. One in particular, running Red Hat Enterprise, has a daily cron job running yum update. I'm somewhat new to Linux, though I do have some practical experience with it. The updates seem to run successfully, but every night the...

    HP laser printer and surge suppressor

    We have an HP LaserJet 3700n printer plugged into one of the "surge suppression only" outlets on an APC Back-UPS (that outlet is not backed up by the UPS's battery).

    Mailbox not created -- System Attendant restart "fixes" it

    Periodically we have a problem where new mail-enabled accounts are created in our domain (Win2K AD Native), but neither their mailboxes nor their GAL entries are created in Exchange (2003 Native), even after waiting over an hour. Over the life of this system we've rarely had this problem (most...

    Is there a way to disable the keyboard shortcut buttons ("Web/Home, "My Computer", etc.) on Microsoft keyboards?

    I just received a copy of the latest Symantec/Veritas Backup Exec (10d). I had only ordered the BE Server and Advanced OFO, but it seems the software came with an application called "Continuous Protection Services".

    We have a few dozen XP Pro PCs (with SP2 and all publicly-released hotfixes to date) that are available for public use. They operate on a Win2003 Active Directory domain using Group Policies to minimize access of these computers to network resources (they all are logged in using the same...
