We are currently installing a new Time & Attendance system and our employees will be able to 'clock in' and 'clock out' on their PCs via a web browser, rather than swiping a card through a clocking machine.
We need to automate this as much as possible and have found that by adding a Login script...
Hi,
One of my users has a very strange problem.
Yesterday afternoon his Excel 2000 started crashing every time he tried to type anything into any cell. It didn't matter whether it was a new or existing worksheet he was using, he would open Excel, open the required spreadsheet or use a new one...
I hope this is the correct forum for this post as there doesn't seem to be an appropriate one, but here goes.
I manage the IT service for 2 companies and one of them wants to start to use Skype to communicate with one of their customers out in China at the customer's request.
I told them that I...

We have just upgraded from BENT8.6 to BEWS 10.0 and I have pushed out the Remote Agent to all my remote servers (mixture of W2K and NT4). Everything backs up fine except for one server, which just happens to be our Oracle database server. I have installed the Oracle Agent with no problems and...
We are running BENT v8.6 on a W2K server and until yesterday we had a Compaq SDLT 110/220GB tape drive attached externally via SCSI. Everything was fine.
We purchased a Quantum Valueloader VS160 and connected that to the SCSI card using the same cable as the old tape drive - just swapped it from...
I have 2 exchange servers on seperate sites in the same Exchange Organization.
The recipients on the 2 servers have different e-mail addresses as we are 2 different companies.
I do not wish to route between the 2 servers, but want all mail to be routed externally to future-proof against the day...
We have recently installed a second Exchange 2000 server at our remote site and have moved some of the mailboxes belonging to the users on that site from our local Exchange server to the new remote server. Mail is flowing from us to them (and vice versa) over Routing Group connectors utilising a...
Hello,
This is quite a complicated problem and I hope I can explain it correctly. We may not even be able to achieve this but I will ask anyway.....
We have 2 sister companies, Company A and Company B. They are both in the UK, but on different sites. Up until yesterday all e-mail was delivered...
Hi,
I am fairly new to Label Matrix (v5.00.04) but have been tasked with resurrecting a despatch label for one of our biggest customers.
Their requirements are fairly standard, including printing multiple labels with a counter so we see 'Box 1 or 10', 'Box 2 of 10', etc. and I have worked this...
Hello all,
We recently had a network audit whereby the purpose of the audit was to check our network security. The auditor walked me through setting Complex passwords using group policy. Now I need to change the password of one user and it is insisting we use complex passwords, I don't want...
Hi,
We have been running Backup Exec 8.6 on W2K for ages and backing up an Oracle database on another W2K server using an Oracle agent. This has been successful until yesterday when we changed the IP address on the server running Backup Exec for NIC-teaming reasons.
Last night the backup failed...
Hi Guys,
Question: Is it possible to have one Offline Folder sitting on a Network Server and allow that folder to be accessed by more than one user working offline.
I have two Sales guys who work with laptops and are perhaps in the office on average one day per week. I have information that I...
We have recently been through a process of making sure all our W2K Pro PCs have the latest Critical patches, etc. from Microsoft and have noticed on some PCs, after the patches have been downloaded and installed, that the Paper sizes on some installed network printers have been reset to very...
Hello,
We have 2 sites and backup exec v8.6 runs on both of them. On our site we back up over 100GB of data across lots of servers every night with no problems.
On the remote site they backup up 30GB on one server and I noticed that the C drive on their server was filling up quite quickly. On...
My W2K domain controler has a process running called cisvc.exe and it is eating up 50% available CPU. I know it is some sort of Microsoft indexing process and I have read articles from people having similar problems to mine but no real solutions.
Is it safe to stop this process? Does it create...
I have a Windows 2003 storage device that I am trying to back up using Backup Exec 8.6 from another server. The Backup runs OK and backs up several devices but then fails at the last one, the 2003 server sytem state, with the following message:
Directory not found. Can not backup directory...
OK all else has failed and I have RTFM but still I cannot get Group Policy to work.
Here's the scenario. I am new to GP so forgive me if I am not doing something glaringly obvious.
I have a network with 80+ PC's in 10 Departments, I want to apply Group Policy to "tie the users down". In...
I have one PC on our network that runs Windows XP (all the rest are W2K) and it has recently started displaying the '£' symbol as '?' in Internet Explorer.
