I'm not too sure if this is the appropriate forum for this type of request, but it shouldn't be too inappropriate either. Can anyone suggest websites or articles that present a relatively balanced reason for using, or even not using, Linux as a file server? I'm looking for articles similar...

I am a very low level user and am not particularly "au fait" with the technical side of Linux. After a period of non-use i have gone back to trying to use a hard drive with Linux installed on it - i was using it to learn about Linux. As far as I can remember - it's been a coupl e of months -...

I have been having problems uninstalling Office 97 off a users PC. They did have Outlook 2000 SR-1 installed, which i have uninstalled successfully, but I really want to remove Office. When i try to remove it from the Add/Remove Programs option it first prompts for the Office 97 CD 1 and then...

I just received a phone call from a company that has "reliably" informed me that BrightStor Arcserve is not compliant with the data protection act. As far as I'm aware from what I have read, the actually software itself does not have much to do with the actual compliance, as it's more down to...

A users PC suffered the following problem on startup: Windows XP could not start because the following file is missing or corrupt: \WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\CONFIG\SYSTEM I was able to get around this using the advice from the Microsoft KB article 307545. Once i got back into windows i then had to...

I would like to generate a file that contains a complete list of every user's SMTP address - including any aliases that they have. It would be preferable that the file generated is a straight text file. Is there any way of doing this in Exchange itself? Or can anybody suggested a program that...

Hello, I'm a relative newbie as far as Linux is concerned and I'm having problems getting a Java plugin to work for netscape/mozilla. From reference to people who have encountered a similar problem I believe I require the xlibs-dev package. However in all my searching I've found nothing but...

We have a user with an HP XP PC that we tried to add a second monitor to their setup. The setup has worked - after updating the BIOS - but when cold booting the PC will freeze half-way through trying to load XP. I've tried using the "last known config." option on boot-up but this has not...

Our users have two PCs each and on one of the machines a bespoke program has stopped working (the PC is w2k). (It generates an error to be sent to Microsoft.) However if the user connects to the machine via remote desktop from his XP machine the program runs fine. I don't really know much...

Hello, I am trying to print from Linux to a windows based Xerox Printer (DocuCentre 230 LP). So far I have had some success. I have managed to successfully send a test page from the Linux machine to the printer, however the printer had trouble with the file when it received it because of the...

We have a user with a windows XP machine. When we attempt to install web services enhancements on it we are told that the wizard terminated prematurely - or words to that affect. I've tried looking on the microsoft site for some reference to this, but have found nothing. Anyone come across...

This doesn't appear to have affected any of our users, nobody has complained yet, but I still would like to find out what it means. We are getting a warning in our Event Log on our Exchange server. I've taken a look on the microsoft website to find out what it means, and couldn't find...

We use Brightstor v9 on our server with AIT3 tape drive. When the server needs to use another media a message gets sent to my desktop PC. However, once I've changed the tape over, the messages keep on coming up, even after the job has completed! I've tried restarting the messenger service on...

I am looking into finding away of implementing a group policy to make unattended W2K PCs more secure. Now I know that you can do this by making PCs run with screensavers and activating password protection, however we have a lot of machines that run processor intensive programs which can be...

Before I activate it, does anybody know of any issues with using hardware compression when backing up an exchange server? I'm running ArcServe 2000 on a Compaq Proliant ML370 G2. We are using Exchange Server 2000. I would rather not find out by trial and error, and although I've not found...

We run Exchange 2000 Server (not enterprise edition) to handle our email. Recently I've had two users complain that large quantities of emails from either old folders they refused to have archived or sent items folders. (In fact one user had their whole sent items folder bar the previous days...

We originally purchased a Compaq ML370 server with the 532 controller. The problem we have is that we cannot change the read/write cache percentages. In fact, we don't have any other options aside from 100% Read and 0% Write. Our supplier then gave us the 642 controller, but this hasn't...

We are reorganising our server room at the moment, and one of the things being proposed is that we redecorate the room in which all of our server and telecomms equipment is being held in. I've read that you shouldn't use solvents to clean PCs, but the only thing that could potentially damage...
