Thanks for that. unfortunately it is to run on a Windows Server 2000 domain adn I dont think WMI works on that. :S In theory, there is no difference between theory and practice. But, in practice, there is.

Hi all, im new to vbs and after quite a long time of searching am struggling to find a script to do what i need. I am trying to write a script that will get an os architecture (x86/x64) and if the os is x86 then run the x86 msi and if it is x64 then run the x64 msi. Would appreciate any help...

Theres nothing wrong with asking other peoples opinions and better to get all available information. :) In theory, there is no difference between theory and practice. But, in practice, there is.

Hi we are planning on 2 dc's minimum per site. The existing ad/dns infrastructure will eventually be replaced. We are planning on implementing a read only dc into a small office. In theory, there is no difference between theory and practice. But, in practice, there is.

Hi all I am planning to implement a server 2008 r2 domain within the company. We have approx 5000-6000 users. The server will contain AD DS, DNS and maybe DHCp. What CPU and ram would you recommend for throughput? In theory, there is no difference between theory and practice. But, in...

hi we are using SMTP and it is internal communications. From what i can gather it is something regarding Outlook Anywhere but I have disabled that service on the server. In theory, there is no difference between theory and practice. But, in practice, there is.

Hi all I have recently finished a migration from exchange 2003 to exchange 2010. Everything appears to be working fine but some users keep getting popup messages asking for username and password to log on to exchange2010.livemail.co.uk from within Outlook. Any suggestions why this is happening...

Hi all I am trying to install an exchange 2010 server into our existing forest. All servers are 2008 R2 except our mail server which is 2003 and exchange 2003. I follow all the guides and it keeps failing on the "Organization prerequisites" - one or more active director connectors have been...

Hi everyone is it possible to get InfoPath to auto populate fields within a form via information retrieved from active directory. E.g. email address, office, job description? In theory, there is no difference between theory and practice. But, in practice, there is.

Hi we currently use the remote desktop to connect to our Server 2008 servers. We are having issues with people connecting and as a result disconnecting the current RD user. Is there a way to configure it so only one person can connect and not allow a second person to take over the session? In...

When I installed 2k8 R2 I set them up as normal Nics (IP, DG, DNS, WINS) then I installed Hyper-V and selected that they were not available to the host within the virtual network manager. In theory, there is no difference between theory and practice. But, in practice, there is.

They are all on the same subnet so I have set up the same default gateway on all the nics. 5 out of 6 nics are being used for the vms so I have not made them available to the host. In theory, there is no difference between theory and practice. But, in practice, there is.

No the switch is a bog standard gigabit switch with nothing done to it. The server is on the same subnet as the DC. The NIC was working fine the day before. Came back into work this morning and it won't authenticate. The NIC finds the domain name (with a 2 after it)within network and sharing...
