We've now had 4 GPO's in our environment that have a corput registry.pol. The settings report gives the following:
The file "\\PAADC1967.amer.zurich.corp\sysvol\amer.zurich.corp\Policies\{XXXX}\Machine\registry.pol" is not in a valid format. The file might be corrupt. Use Group Policy Object...
Thanks. I will give it a shot when I get in. A bg difference from my resource hogging mess.
As to your comment in [6] - When this is complete, it will be tied to a service account and I'll probably use impersonate to use an account with just enough rights.
One other question: Any idea how...
I need to get a list of all members of the local Administrators group on all servers in our environment. I then need to take that list and get the SID for each of those values.
These groups can contain local and domain accounts as well as local and foreign (trusted) domain groups (any...
I'll see if I can find the event ID's. I basically scrapped two way DFS/failover in favor of one-way DFS backup. I did more research after I posted this and found so many people with this same problem and no easy answer.
While this happpened a few times over night the worst was during a...
I've setup full mesh DFS replication with 3 file servers hoping for the following results:
1. Single backup point at main office.
2. Two site offices with fast access to files.
I have users who are consistently saving their files, going home, and having all changes gone. When I check the...
We have three domains, two from legacy companies, one new domain to merge both old domains on to. A trust has been set up between all domains.
Because of some org changes, I need to migrate 750 mailboxes from Domain A to New Domain B. The goal is to have the user continue to authenticate to...
We have a two way trust relationship between two 2003 domains in two different forests.
Domain A
Domain B
All users authenticate to Domain A. There are DFS Root shares and other items setup on Domain B that users need access to.
I'm running into two scenarios:
1. Some users can't even see...
The system begins to boot from CD and then hangs. Won't go a step further.
Details:
I've got an emachine with onboard IDE. I bought a 300gig Maxtor SATA/II and a SiiG PCI SATA Card.
My goal is to have the system boot of the Maxtor and use it as the only drive.
I set the jumper on the...
We have close to 1000 PC's that need McAfee and the EPO Orchestrator removed. I have a script to uninstall McAfee Antivirus. However, I find no easy way to remove EPO Orchestrator.
At the local PC you can log in with admin rights and execute:
frminst.exe /forceuninstall /silent.
However, I...
Blocked inheritance, same error.
Out of curiosity I took out the script and put %windir%\regedit.exe in the command script and got no error. Changing the directory caused an error (File not found) but telling it to actually apply a registry key to the PC resulted in no action whatsoever.
There is a default group policy at the top of the domain. It basically allows power users to add printers on their own, has some settings for RIS, and that's about it. There is an area for load/unload device drivers but I don't think that would effect things.
Out of curiosity I created a...
That's the other tough thing, I can't see where it is failing.
The error in the log seems to indicate simply executing the script fails with access is denied. I can try breaking down the script and see if anything gets through.
I've gone ahead and shut down the firewall to get that out of the...
Actually, I followed the steps in that link to the "T".
But I get access denied. Even with the Domain Computers having read/execute/apply policy rights.
I'm trying to run a .cmd file that applies the dst registry fix and runs a vbscript to apply the update.
When I start the local PC I see Event ID:1000 access denied when it tries to launch the .cmd file. Here are the details:
All scripts are in the [domain controller]\netlogon folder.
I've...
Do a route print at a command prompt prior to and after establishing a VPN. You will see how your routing is changed.
You can write a batch file to change your local routing table so all non-VPN traffic will go through your ISP, not the VPN.
We currently have a 1710 setup to allow remote offices to tunnel into headquarters. We now want to give remote users the ability to connect to ISP at home, and connect to VPN via IPSec using a W2K box as a Radius server.
Does anyone have a sample config or a link to a sample config that is...
We're trying to test having all satellite offices use the internet through our VPN instead of having their own connection.
Our 1720 is connected to a T-1 that gets us to the net. All PC's internal can surf anywhere.
I am connected to an 806 router connected via DSL coming in through VPN...
