Dear People, I'm trying to understand how I can make my DC (w2k server) get the right time from a NTP server, and then sync the time with the rest of the domain, so that all the users see the correct time on their computers. Obviously I need this to all be automated. Thank you all for your...

First of all, thank you for the quick reply. Yes, I did mistake the PDC and BDC situation with W2k Servers, so let me re-phrase the question. One of my servers has DNS and other important services running on it. I want to move all these services from one server to another, I was told there is a...

Dear People, I need to promote my Backup Domain cOntroller to a Primary DOmain COntroller. I was told there is a utility that automates disabling services accociated with the PDC and enabling them on the BDC and then promotes the BDC to PDC, is this true? Any suggestions will help! Thank you...

First of all, thanx to all of you who answered my question. Now on to the point. Manarth, what I need to monitor is the network bandwidth from one computer to another. Most PC's are located inside the LAN, but a few are connected by FAU lines. I have about 170 - 200 computers in the domain...

Dear People, I'm looking for a way to monitor network traffic in my office. I need to be able to check the traffic from my machine to all points in the office. I tried using NetIQ's Chariot, but its only a 3 day trial version and the full version costs 4,000 buckeroos! Any suggestions...

I have a few users in my company who use W98, they constantly get error messages when using Internet Explorer, or Word, or Excel and then try to use the Start button. The message that is given says the following; "This program has performed an illigal operation and will be shut down.&quot...

Dear people, I have set up a win98 machine, running on a Cel 1.2 processor. The user who sits by the computer complains that Microsoft Explorer, and not Internet Explorer, generates errors and closes all her opened programs, she then has to restart the computer to be able to use it. Re...

Dear People, Every time a user logs into one of the computers here, the computer creates a new user folder for her. Meaning, in the Documents and Settings folder, the computer adds a file like the following; if the usual user folder is just the users name, ie: User, then the computer adds a...

Hello People, My fellow co workers and I are all stumped as to why I have a option for Mail and Fax in my Control Panel in W2K Professional and they don't? Any help would be appriciated! Mike

I tried that too, but it doesn't help either, maybe I'll try again, thanx for the tip!

Oh, one more thing. If I manually choose LPT1 when in the Terminal Session, everything works fine, but if I logon and off the session, the port switches back to PRN. Mike

Hey people, I have a Canon BJC hooked up to a computer in a remote office. The printer is physically hooked up to a computer. The user who sits at that computer uses Terminal Services. When she used to log on to the Terminal Server, she had no problems with printing. Now, ever since I made...

Yes the printer is mapped SOMETIMES, yet many times it is not. By default on the Terminal Server, the first computer with a printer installed on it, to log onto the server, that printer will be used as the default printer for all computers that will later log onto the Terminal Server. I have...

And I'm Running W2k

I'm almost sure that I set up the computer differently then the other computers referring to the Group Policies in MMC. Otherwise, that's it, nothing else different about them. I also can tell you that the network adapter on this machine malfunctioned and I replaced it with a different one, but...

Hey people, for those of you who read the first part, skip on down to the second part of my letter. One of the remote offices that I control has problems with mapping the printer that is set up there as a local printer, while logged in to Terminal Services. One computer has the printer set up...

The problem is that everything worked fine until last week when I installed a new computer into their workgroup. I also thought that it might be a problem with the driver, but that doesn't seem to be it. The new computer that I installed is the computer that doesn't detect the printer when...
