    Enable Netflow on 4550T-PWR

    Can anyone help me to enable netflow on a 4550T-PWR? I would like to gather some data from our switches using the Solarwinds products but I cannot get the software to see the hardware. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Run Access 2007 query from Intranet

    I have a simple Access 2007 database on our network. I would like to include a facility on our Intranet which allows people to run one of the Access queries and display the results without opening the database itself. What is the easiest way to do this? The Intranet has been created with...

    Alternatives to Public Folders for Shared Messages

    We currently store all shared e-mails in public folders - one folder for each project. Our public folder store keeps growing and I'm concerned that it would take days to restore in the event of a problem. I have also heard that Microsoft are encouraging users to move away from public folders...

    Default gateway settings with two routers

    We currently link our two offices with a router to router VPN. These routers also provide general Internet access. All of the workstations are configured with the router's IP address as the default gateway. The IP range of office 1 is 192.168.1.x and the default gateway is 192.168.1.254...

    We have an Epson Perfection 1640SU connected to a workstation on the network. The scanner will not scan unless the user is given administrator rights. Even power user rights will not work. Each time you try to acquire something an error message appears on the screen saying that Twain is not...

    In/Out Board on the LAN

    We need to create an In/Out board so we know who is in and who is out in each of our two offices. Does anyone have experience of using a program to do this?

    Reducing size of public folder store

    Our public folder store is reaching the 16Gb limit so I have moved about 1Gb of messages to a PST file. However the size of the public folder store has remained the same even after a defrag using eseutil. Can anyone tell me why the size of the store hasn't reduced? Are the messages just...

    Creating Organizational Units to manage group policies

    I need to set up some group policies to install applications on selected computers, and to control various settings such as the Windows Firewall. I think the easiest way to do this is to create an OU and add the computers to it. My question is can a computer be a member of multiple OUs...

    Multiple public folder stores with standard Exchange.

    Is it possible to create public folder stores in the standard version of Exchange, ie. pub1.edb, pub2.edb and so on? Our store has nearly reached the 16Gb limit and I would like to create further stores on a different (larger) partition.

    Removing messages from Exchange for long term storage (archiving)

    We use public folders in Exchange to store all our project related messages. So when a user sends or receives a message they file it in the appropriate public folder so everyone can see it. This system works really well. However our public folder store is reaching its limit of 16Gb and I...

    Login scripts - mapping drives and printers depending on IP address

    This is really directed to markdmac with reference to the FAQ faq329-5798. In the same way you can map certain drives and printers using by detecting groups the user belongs to, I need to do the same depending on IP address. eg. if the IP address is 192.168.1.x then map N drive to...

    Using an Exchange Public Folder as a discussion forum

    Is it possible to use an Exchange Public Folder as a discussion forum in the same manner as Tek-Tips? I wanted to invite comments on a suggestion in the office but I would like each contributor to see comments made by others.

    Using DFS to synchronise user profiles across two sites

    Has anyone here used DFS to successfully synchronise user profiles across two different sites? I would like to keep an updated copy of user profiles in two different locations so users can login at either site. I would like to replicate the profiles every night using an automatated schedule.

    HP LaserJet 2100 does not feed paper

    I have just tried cleaning the pickup rollers on our Laserjet. I removed the bottom tray and undid the three screws to removed the roller assembly. Unfortunately a piece of black plastic jumped out and I cannot see where it came from. I am sure it is back in the correct place but now the...

    OST files on network drive

    We use Exchange 2003 with Outlook 2003 in cached exchange mode. This creates a large OST in the user's profile which, because it is a roaming profile, can be problematic. Is there a problem with puting the OST file on a different path, such as in a folder on the file server, so that the...

    Permissions prevent VBS script from running

    I have created a very simple vbs script to enable users to connect to printers on our network. In due course I will add it to a vbs logon script. (Thanks for FAQ markdmac!) When I ran the script from my workstation it worked fine however when I tried to run the same script from a colleague's...

    Switching on DFS causes entire network to hang

    Why would switching on the DFS service on our Windows 2003 servers cause the entire network to "hang" at random intervals? Our new servers were installed about a year ago and from the start we suffered with all the workstations locking up from time to time. After trying all sorts of things the...

    Allow Users to Log In at Different Sites

    We have two offices a couple of hundred metres apart. We have investigated options for creating a network link between the two offices but it is all too expensive. Consequently we have created a VPN which is adequate but not ideal. Our two servers in the main office are running Windows Server...

    Outlook 2003 - Cannot see Zip files to attach

    We are using Outlook 2003 with Exchange Server 2003. When you use the paperclip icon to browse for a file to attach, ZIP files do not appear, even though they are in the folder. You can copy and paste (or drag and drop) the ZIP file into the message window but many of our users prefer to...
