We have implemented a DFS namespace that replicates with another server. This work very well, however if a server goes down the time that the referral kicks in can take a while. I noticed that the cache duration for the namespace is 5 minutes and 30 minutes for the folders. If I lower this...

This is probably a dumb question but I'm still unsure if this is right. We have multiple Procurve 5412zl and will be adding procurve wireless AP's soon. We would like to divide our wireless network into two VLAN one for our internal clients that use a RADIUS type configuration and a second...

We have a six strand run coming from our IDF closet to our MDF. In our IDF we have two switches each connected via a paired stranded of fiber to our MDF which has one pair going to one switch and the other to the second switch. Then the two switches in the MDF are connected via a fiber patch...

Planning on setting up DFS at my current location. I know Microsoft does not recommend you use DFS replication for roaming user profiles. However, does anyone know if we can replicate redirected folders (appdata, my docs, my desktop, etc..). I'm working out the logic in my head and the only...

We are replacing our current file server with a new machine. We did not use DFS for the profile path so I will need to make a copy and paste type move. However, I cannot copy folder and files because I am not the folder's owner. If I take ownership I will break the folder's security and would...

OK having a tough time understanding the requirements for Jumbo Frames to work through the network. All our servers will be configured for jumbo frames. So will our switches. Now I'm worried about the other 500 machines. Would I have to go to each machine to turn on jumbo frames. Or would the...

We are upgrading to a Windows Server 2008 R2 and Windows 7 environment. Is there a way to choose what programs appear on the task bar as a pinned program via group policy?

We recently installed some Windows 7 machines on our school network. I can't seem to find a way to customize which programs should appear on the task bar as pinned. Is there such a settings? Thanks!

We have a few student shared folders here at our school network. Kids who have read and write access to the folder like to mess with teachers and hide files. I know I can prevent this by changing the Write Attribute permission however this breaks the students ability from editing their...

In my six plus years I have never seen this type of problem before and thought maybe this community could help me understand it. We had two users who were not getting the latest user GPOs. At first I thought it was a profile corruption. So I deleted their profiles and had Windows automatically...

Is there a group policy setting or combination of settings that will allow me to turn on pop-blocker but prevents the end user from turning it off or on. I know I can hide the privacy tab in Internet Control Panel, however the option to turn it on or off is still under the command bar.

We have some nortel 470 switches that will soon be replaced with procurve swithces. In the meantime I'm interested in configuring one of our server with a teamed nic. I tired looking all over the net for clear instructions on configuring the nortel switch's ports as a trunk. I keep seeing things...

Hi all. We are trying to get our server's teamed NICS into a trunk setup on our 5412zl switch. While I have found instructions online on how to do this, some say I have to apply this trunk to a VLAN. Does a trunk setup need to also be configured for a VLAN to work correctly? I rather keep...

I just took on a new project at a high school where there are over 1300 students. I would like to give each a AD account. Can anyone recommend any procedures or scripts or tools for doing so? Also, if you anyone has any experience in education with this many students is it even a good idea to...

I know this was posted in the Windows Sever 2003 board just thought I would get me eyes here. So for ages now I have enabled Prohibit Access to the Control Panel through group policy. No problems there. However, when I added Vista x64 machines to my network, an standard user now gets an error...

So for ages now I have enabled Prohibit Access to the Control Panel through group policy. No problems there. However, when I added Vista x64 machines to my network, an standard user now gets an error message that states "This operation has been canceled please contact your system...

Ok probably a dumb question. I am planning on replacing one of my DCs with Windows Server 2008. My other DC is Windows Server 2003 and is not being replaced at the moment. We have some Vista clients on our network and would like to configure some of its new GPO settings. By adding a Windows...

I'm running Windows Server 2003 R2 print server with the print management software installed. However, I'm looking for software, hopefully free, that can manage print quotas either by printer or by user groups. I have checked out a few of them already but they all seem not to work. Like Print...

Working on a site that is using Master Pages. When the page loads in FireFox everythings looks good. However in IE (6 or 7) I got an warning icon on the bottom left of the browser window. I look at the error detials and it tells me its line two of the code which is this: <asp:Content...
