Figured it out. Windows does not like the event log to be saved to a mapped network drive. Once I made a folder on a local drive it saved just fine.

Hi, I am having a problem saving the event log. I am running Windows Server 2003 SP2 and this is my domain controller. When I try to save the security event log, I get the message that says "Unable to save eent log to file "M:\Logs\Security.evt". Insufficient system resources exist to...

58sniper, Thank you for the insight. I found the GPO that was giving me grief. Once corrected the log file size works great. Thanks for all of the help.

No, all of the GPOs have the event log stuff undefined. I have tried to change the GPO to enable maximum security event log size but it still reverts back to 16384KB. I'm looking to set it up to about 100MB.

I am trying to change the size of my security event log but it keeps getting switched back to the default of 16384KB. I manually clear the log every day with a script, thanks tek-tips for the script, but I am missing entries because there is so much activity in the log. I think I could set...

You can use the gpresult /USER <username> from a command prompt to get the data you are looking for. You can also add a /V to the end of that command to get the verbose output.

tsuji thank you again for your insightful comments.

Thanks for the criticism!! I was under the impression that these forums were here to help. I was not hired to do scripting, but I am pushing forward in my career by accepting challenges however daunting and difficult they might be to expand my knowledge and potential worth in the future. It...

The whole script was posted when I first submitted the request. As I stated earlier, I'm not much of scripter, just trying to make my life a bit easier though.

Thanks for all of the replies. I have tried to make all of the changes you suggested tsuji, but I still get this error when I try to run it. Line: 1 Char: 1 Error: Type mismatch:'Listing' Code: 800A000D Source: Microsoft VBScript runtime error

I tried making it all one line as noted, but it then returns an error Line: 1 Char: 1 Error: Type mismatch:'Listing' Code: 800A000D Source: Microsoft VBScript runtime error

I am trying to export contact records from AD with the following script. I'm not much of a scripter and I am getting errors on Line:36, Char:4, Error:Expected statement, Code:800A0400, Source: MS VBScript compilation error. The whole script is pasted below, but line 36 is & " from '" &...

I am running 2003 R2. Can you elaborate on the use of GPOs with printers.

That's too bad. It would be nice to be able to share the printers into their own folder, or the ultimate goal was to share them in the appropriate departments folder. Thanks for your time.
