The network I am using this laptop on has the same DNS/DHCP settings, and have no problems routing or resolving DNS names. The problem is on the laptop exclusively.
At this point, the customer is leaning towards a wipe and reimage, which I agree with.
Ben, I can ping the DNS servers with no problems. I can also access a URL by IP address. My Ip settings are set for DHCP. I have no static settings for DNS on this laptop.
I did notice via protocl analyzer that whenever I ping a URL directly, it tries to resolve the name via Netbios over...
I believe this is spyware/virus related. The problem laptop has been cleaned from an infection (no details on the virus name).
Here are the facts:
* Can retrive IP, DHCP, DNS
* Can ping IP addresses
* Can perform NSLOOKUP
* Can access URLs with manual HOST file entries; but not...
The setup is as follows:
All sites are connected to main location via IPSEC VPN. (3DES, SHA, Preshared)
1 main location. Hosts 3 heavily used Citrix applications. Has 1 MB T-1 internet connection.
6 remote locations. Access citrix server at main location. Each has 6MB Down/512 KB Upstream...
Tsuji, after some more digging, I have come to understand in a GPO context...the differences between a startup and a logon script.
Computer Configuration = startup script.
User Configuration = logon script.
I was able to get the script working after using Computer Configuration --> Startup...
Well...I will definitely be the first to admit that I am an amateur when it comes to scripting, which is why I have posted.
My experience with VBScript is very limited, and I am still learning. I've been able to run a startup script to log network drives, printers, and install software in...
PHV, sorry, I did try that suggestion. The script will not execute either manually or via startup. I am assuming the vbscript will not make those registry changes for a normal user.
Tsuji, why did you post that response? It sounds a bit mean spirited, and honestly, quite arrogant.
The script, when run manually, does not make the registry changes to normal users. However, it will make changes for admin accounts. I do not want to give normal users elevated privilages to the registry.
Anything I should doublecheck on?
VBScript padawan here.
* Active Directory Domain - 2003
* Windows XP SP3 computers
I want to push out a registry change via VBScript. This code runs fine on accounts with admin access, but will not run for standard users. My current logon script, which maps printer/drives/etc, runs fine on...
So...centrally managing the printer drivers and software, offloading CPU from print jobs from the client to the server. Makes sense to me.
Any suggestions on hardware, with an emphasis on RAM or CPU? I know of a location that uses a dinosaur to manage 40 printers (500 HMZ, 1 GB RAM)
