I have some users who don't have local admin rights to their workstations. If a print driver on a server is updated, the users cannot update the driver on their local system. Is there any way to get around this issue short of granting the user local admin rights?

I'm trying to install HP 9040 and 9050 x64 drivers on Windows 2003 Server on 32-bit. The 32-bit drivers install fine. Next I try to add the x64 drivers. First it prompts for the x64 drivers; I point it to the drivers I downloaded. Next it prompts for the NTPRINT.INF file from the Windows...

I've always used static IP addresses for shared printers without any issues. I am now supporting a new environment where in the in place solution is DHCP, really more for convenience than anything else. It relies on DDNS to register a printer in DNS to match the port name (specified as FQDN...

I need to compare the permissions for all keys under HKLM\Software\Classes\CLSID on 2 servers. There are hundreds, maybe thousands of keys so it is not practical to right click on each key to view the permissions. Are there any tools available that would allow me to export the permissions or...

I have a WSUS server that has been running perfectly for about a year. For the past couple of patch cycles, the SUS clients (which are all Windows 2003 Server) are not downloading all applicable updates from the WSUS server. For example, suppose MS releases 10 new patches, well just call them...

I have a Windows 2003 x64 server with 8GB of physical RAM. Outside of typical Windows services, the only application running is a database (x64 version), consuming 2-2.5GB RAM. The server is constanly using a paging file of size 6GB. The OS does recognize the full 8GB. I believe the /PAE...

I'm running Oracle 10g on Windows x64 and would like to enable large page support. The instructions state to grant the Windows "oracle" user the user right of "lock pages in memory". The Oracle databases run as a service under the "local system" account. In this case "local system" is my...

When I run secpol.msc, I get the error: "Windows cannot open the local policy database. An unknown error occured when attempting to open the database." The first step I did was to delete the edb and log files from %WINDIR%\Security; didn't fix it. Next I ran a repair, esentutl /g on...

I know Microsoft says R2 cannot be removed once installed. But exactly what exactly is R2? Does it only extend AD or is it more than that? I have a domain controller that's on R2, and I need to remove it since R2 is not allowed on the network. In the same domain, I have 2 other DCs that are...

I'm not a developer. I have an application that was written to function on 5.5.17. I need to upgrade the application to 6.x due to vulnerabilities in 5.x. I noticed on the website 5.5.x supports Servlet/JSP Spec 2.4/2.0. While 6.x supports 2.5/2.1. My question is what is the likelihood...

BE 10.1d - Added a 2nd (and identical) drive to the tape library; BE sees it, and it has been added to each device pool. But when two concurrent backup jobs are running, the new drive is never used; the 2nd job will just queue up until the existing drive is free. There are 22 tape slots in the...

I have a lab environment where a WSUS server advertises patches via GPO, but by design it's set to "notify" only for both download and install. When a user opens the automatic update icon in the system tray and downloads all available updates, they are later prompted to install the updates...

Here's the scenario: -users have accounts in domain DOM_A and use them to login to workstations that are also a member of DOM_A -from these DOM_A workstations, users connect to a CTXS server in domain DOM_B and login with another user account they have in DOM_B -there exists a firewall...

I'm running BE 10.1d on a server that backups data for 2 domains. There is no trust between the domains, they just have logical network connectivty. For the domain the BE server is a member of, there are no issues with any backups. For servers in the other domain, I use a service account...

Is it possible to run TSWeb over HTTPS rather than HTTP on Windows 2003/IIS 6.0? I know this works in Windows 2008. I've read some articles which state the ActiveX control for TSWeb does not support SSL. But I've also read some articles that seem to indicate people have gotten it to work.

I created two server backups using NTBackup, writing the BKF files to disk. One image is 20GB and the other was 80GB. The 20GB image checks out fine, but when I try to restore from the 80GB file, I keep getting an "inconsistency in backup file" error message. After researching, I found a...

I have a domain where most users have local administrator rights on their domain member workstations. Some of these users have removed domain admins from the local administrator group of their own workstation. I know you can use a login script to add domain admins back; but are there any other...

It's been a while since I worked with Backup Exec but I had to setup some jobs recently. In the past I would just "check" a server and it would backup all data for that system. I'm using version 10 and I noticed that when I check the complete server and expland it, it has all the drives...

I installed the SFWgtextS package from the Companion disc for the md5 checksum tool. I need to run it on 2 very large files; 20GB and 80GB respectively. When I run: md5sum filename it returns "value too large for deinfed data type". Any ideas on how to correct this, or a suggestion for a...

I have a domain environment that is firewalled off. Some people who sit outside of the firewall, still need access to resources behind the firewall, and those ports are open. Most resources are secured by domain accounts, and people outside the firewall don't have a way to change their...
