    Changing the web password

    Hello I am creating my own app to allow our web users to change their passwords. These people are "outsiders" to our domain and have no access to the R5 NAB. Please don't suggest that I upgrade, it isn't my decision to make and there are valid reasons why it isn't possible to do at this time...

    Do I need make adjustment after memory upgrade?

    It doesn't matter what you are running on the server. For NT4 server, your optimal page file size is the amount of memory plus 11, expressed in MB. So in your case it should be 1035. You should see this in the recommended field in the Virtual Memory settings. If you stray from this number in...

    echo date into a log from a cmd file

    This is an environmental issue. Windows 2000 sets the date variable automatically, but NT does not. All you are doing with the echo command is telling the command processor to print that variable. When the variable is not set, there is nothing to print. What you should try in NT is the date...

    batch file help

    Check out Scheduled Tasks in Control Panel. You can use it to schedule bat and exe files to run at system startup or on a regular schedule. You can also specify which user account each file will run under.

    Ethernet Controller

    The Ethernet Controller is your network card. It may be onboard ( built into the motherboard ) or it may be a separate card installed into one of the PCI slots. Try uninstalling it from device manager and then reboot the system. Windows should find it on boot up and reinstall the proper...

    Printing List of Users

    These are great ideas and excellent tools. However, for the sake of having other options, there is a way to do it from User Manager if you have a Win2K Pro host or Server in the domain. When logged in as an administrator you can use the Computer Management tool to export the user list to a TXT...

    OOPS. I forgot which forum I was looking at. On an NT4 box, Scheduled Tasks appears under My Computer when you open Windows Explorer.

    Need help making a batch file

    The AT command can be confusing for inexperienced uses. A tool which is easier to use is the GUI based Scheduled Tasks utility that comes with newer versions of IE. On a Win2K machine you will find it in Control Panel. It will allow you to schedule just about anything on a daily, weekly or...

    user constantly locked out

    Keeping in mind what justyn said, also look for permanent drive mappings. These can lock you out pretty quickly after a password change.

    automating a restart of windows 2000

    There is a command line utility called "Shutdown.exe" that can be used for shutting down or restarting your local machine or remote machines. I think you will find it in the resource kit. I know it wasn't native on my Win2K machines and can't remember where I got it for my NT...

    Can anyone tell me what happened to the server ?

    Are you running Trend Micro Office Scan on that server? Try disabling it. If things get better, then uninstall and reinstall it. Also, check out their website for FAQs on this topic.

    Router cannot get dynamic IP from ISP

    I suspect you have not configured something properly on the router. Contact a techie at your ISP and ask them how it needs to be configured.

    DHCP Issues!

    With the Win2K server plugged into the linksys, your workstations should find it. The next time they try to get a lease renewed or a new lease, they will try the linksys first and not get a response. After a bit, they will then broadcast a request on the network and your Win2K server will...

    Script for deleting *.tmp files! HELP!!!

    I found this script at Microsoft TechNet that produces a listing of local partitions and their associated drive letters: ComputerName = "." Set wmiServices = GetObject _ ("winmgmts:{impersonationLevel=Impersonate}!//" & ComputerName) Set wmiDiskDrives = wmiServices.ExecQuery...

    NT4 Server cannot ping some NT Server on the same network

    If nothing changed except the switch, then I would suspect a bad or misconfigured port on the switch or a cable went bad during the move. Try a different port on the switch or replace the cable. Then again, maybe the "bad" server just needs to be power cycled ;-)

    Script for deleting *.tmp files! HELP!!!

    If you want to delete the *.tmp files on just one machine where you know the partition configuration, the following will work and is extremely simple. Create a batch file with the following line for each partition that is on the system: del drive:\ *.tmp /S /Q The /S switch tells the command...

    logon script..mapping a drive depending on user. HELP!

    You need a "GOTO End" between "IF %USERNAME% == MIKE GOTO :DD" and ":DD". Without that, everyone will end up at ":DD" regardless of thier username. Also, just for the sake of clarity, you don't need the colon in the GOTO statement. For example "IF...
