In our group policy for the domain we have windows firewall disabled as well as automatic updates disabled and manage the updates with another product. If a laptop user logs on with his cached profile he is unable to start these services when off-site. I would like to be able to have our policy...

I have checked the regional settings in control panel on all the systems and they are set for our location and the adjust for dst box is cleared.

We are in a province that does not follow DST and the regional settings on the systems are set to not adjust for dst. All systems are patched with the dst patch 931836 and are using Office 2003. One of our members schedules a meeting with someone in the same province and the meeting appears on...

The users are located in a default container Users, not in an OU. When I look at the properties of the container I don't see a Policy tab so I assume they are getting the default policy for the domain which has the prompt not configured

Thanks for the info. I just checked the Default Domain Policy. I'll check the OU where the user is that is complaining.

These are 2 similar but separate domains and there is no trust between them. I checked the domain that is prompting to change the password after it has expired without locking the account and the security setting to prompt the user to chnage the password before it expires is not configured. I...

We have a Windows 2000 SP3 and a Windows 2000 SP4 domains that we manage for a client. In these domains there are resources that don't log in for long periods of time. In the SP4 domain if a user doesn't log in and his password has expired he is prompted to set a new password and he can access...

How do you delete and recreate the policy? Is it done locally on the system that isn't updating? I configured the settings through the console as far as scheduling.

I have AutoUpdate Architect installed on a server and have a bunch of servers pointing to a local repository for updates. i also have alert manager installed on the same server and have set myself to get notified of errors. Systems have stopped updating a couple of weeks ago and I don't know...

I was talking about the vbs script. I ran it from command line and put it to a text but your query works better, thank you

Thanks that works well. Hate to be a pain, but could you tell me how to pump the output to a text file?

Thanks I looked at the site for this tool and it looks like it queries attribites per user. I need something to pipe results to a file that shows all users in an OU whose passwords are set to never expire, not having to put in the names of the users one at a time

I need to query an OU in our domain and generate a list of the users whose passwords are set to never expire. I've looked at the dsquery options but can't find the attribute for the password not expiring. Can anyone help me out with how to do this? I know it can be done with a script but I don't...

I have AutoUpdate Architect installed on one of our servers in the data center that has internet access and have all of our other internal domain servers pointing to it for updates and all is working well. We are getting more and more systems to host that are in another domain or are workgroup...

I have had AutoUpdate architect running for a few months now but I see my pull tasks are not working since last week. When I try to initiate a pull task to nai I get an error "failed to start inet session" No accounts are locked out that I use in the setup and I can access the sites from the...
