Thanks Mrdenny. We use Microsoft Select licensing, so I can just decide whether I want to use per processor or per cal. Thanks guys. http://scottcross.blogspot.com Windows and NT Admin.

Thanks, I get this:- Standard Edition NULL 9.00.2047.00 SP1 Scott.

yes it is. assuming your using IIS, you need to create a virtual folder with the same name as the users login name and point this to the home folder. Scott.

Hi Guys, I have a SQL 2005 installation that I've inherited. Could someone please tell me how to confirm the method of licensing used. ie per processor or per user. If per user I also need to know how many cals there are. It doesn't seem to work the same way as 2000 and so I'm a little stuck...

Well in an ideal world you'd never use it. But the point is it's there should you need it - it's an insurance. And yeah, you will need to bring the system down to replace the bad drive but you'll be able to choose when you do it. Which controller do you have? http://scottcross.blogspot.com...

Don't forget GPO's are applied in the following order...... Local / Domain / Site / OU / Child OU / etc http://scottcross.blogspot.com Windows and NT Admin.

How did you install the HP software on the TS? Did you do it from a terminal Session or while at the console? http://scottcross.blogspot.com Windows and NT Admin.

or instead of going Hot Swappable you should be able to add a hot-spare. Then in the event you lose a drive, you wouldn't need to bring the system down. http://scottcross.blogspot.com Windows and NT Admin.

Whats the error message you receive when you try to join the machine to the domain? http://scottcross.blogspot.com Windows and NT Admin.

Its available on both, http://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/windows2000serv/howto/dfsguide.mspx http://scottcross.blogspot.com Windows and NT Admin.

mrdenny is right. Domain based DFS will do exactly what you want. you'll end up with a path like \\domainname\sharename but it will point to multiple targets like \\server1\share \\server2\share http://scottcross.blogspot.com Windows and NT Admin.

What are the servers doing? Are they just file Servers? Database? http://scottcross.blogspot.com Windows and NT Admin.

This link http://support.microsoft.com/?id=255504 Taken from my post yesterday shows how to seize the roles. http://scottcross.blogspot.com Windows and NT Admin.

ADMT will migrate groups. It will leave the original in place as well. http://scottcross.blogspot.com Windows and NT Admin.

You can seize the roles, The link I supplied earlier shows how to do this. Although, you probably won't notice the lack of these 2 roles until you either try to extend the schema or create a child domain. Somebody please correct me if I'm wrong on this. http://scottcross.blogspot.com...
