Thanks again Mark. I've done some experimenting with USMT and that seems to do the trick.
Unfortunately, it copies a number of folders from the root of C: into the new user's My Documents folder, which slows down the process quite a lot. Any idea what could be causing this to happen?
Does anyone have any tips for copying a local user profile to a domain profile?
I have a number of users (all on XP) with local user profiles (Desktop, My Documents, Favourites, etc.). I have just set up a 2003 server and want to connect these users to the domain. When I do so and log in as...
I have a machine connected to a domain from which the "Client for Microsoft Networks" has been inadvertantly removed. When I try and re-install the client I get an "Access Denied" message. This happens if I am logged in as either the local or domain admin. Any idea how to remedy this?
That's great Martin, thanks for the advice. I realised when buying the other parts that the memory was going to be the weak point but after emptying my wallet buying the other bits I was hoping to at least get it up and running with the Kingston RAM before investing in some decent stuff further...
No, I can't even install Windows on the system, which was what started me down this path in the first place. When I try to install XP I get a STOP error: PFN_LIST_CORRUPT.
I have a new motherboard (Abit AN8-SLI) and processor (AMD Athlon X2 4800+) and am getting problems when running memtest86. Having read the FAQ on the memtest site it suggests using "more conservative memory timing" when using Athlon CPUs.
I have 1GB (2 x 512) Kingston memory with timings of...
I have created the following .ADM file but when I add the file to a GPO it creates a new folder under Windows Components called 'Simple File Sharing' but the 'Disable Simple File Sharing' policy does not appear'. Any idea why?

Thanks Anthony, I found isaserver.org after I posted here and managed to find some additional info. It seems that, as you say, a reboot immediately after the installation and before login prevents the Properties box from appearing. Apparently there's a way to force a reboot by creating a...
I have created a GPO to install the ISA Firewall Client which seems to be working fine. However, after the installation completes and the user logs in the Firewall Client properties page pops up and has to be closed. I don't want the users to see this box so I was wondering if there is any way...
Thanks Longhair, I had to make a couple of amendments to your code but to say it was untested that was excellent :).
Thanks DanAuber and arthurbr. I think both of your solutions would have worked but I specifically wanted to do this in VBA so that a user could run it as a fool-proof (hopefully)...
I have about 400 rows of data in an Excel spreadsheet which I've imported from an AS/400. The data is sorted by Column A which contains Operation Numbers. In some cases there may be 5 or 6 rows with the same Operation number.
I want to write some VBA code to delete all the rows which contain...
In order to use the A G DL P method of assigning permissions using Active Directory I have created a Global group containing some users and added it to a Domain Local group.
However, when I try and give the DL group access to a shared folder it cannot find the DL group, or any DL group for that...
This is probably a really easy one. I've set up two remote desktop connections in Administrative Tools|Remote Desktops and both are working fine. Unfortunately whenever I start Remote Desktops it automatically connects to the last connection I used. Is there any way to stop this happening?
