Thanks, but I think I've now solved it. Its a certificate problem - each PC and the server carry a certificate (buried in the mrinit.conf file). When I loaded the Console onto a new server, it picked up a new certificate which was then different to all the PCs which still had the old one. Oddly...

I'm having constant problems with Sophos Enterprise console 4 that Sophos aren't able to resolve. What I'm getting is that all the PCs appear in the console in grey -If it try and protect them they start to run -the orange arrow turned to green and then to a green egg-timer and then it hangs for...

Thanks - I tried this and got error 53. However, this doesn't help -according to the list, I should check WINS -well I'm using XP so I don't think this matters, and I'm using the IP address in the net view command. The machines are turned on, and I get a reponse when I ping them. File and print...

I have a VPN set up between our main site A (with domain servers) and remote office B with just four PCs. From the remote office, I can access files on the servers by making a shortcut to the server Ip address and share eg. \\172.16.0.5\shareddocs. However, if I want to see files on one of the...

I've bought in a managed VPN service to connect five remote Pcs to our main site. All pcs run XP pro and our servers are win 2003. The VPN has been setup betwen our Inty server(an all-in-one firewall, email server, running unix) and a small firewall/router at the remote end. Having bought this...

Internexus -yes I believe you're broadlt right there, as i have two administrator folders on each machine, one with an extension and one without. New machines always go throught the routine of asking for a local administrator password and insisting that you put at least one user on the machine...

No -the domain is a straightforward single domain, Windows 2003 servers, no recent changes. I'm not using roaming profiles. The workstations are all part of the domain. I have a user account setup on the server. I plug in a new PC, give it an IP address, log in as an existing user eg. "alan"...

I've noticed that several users have two profiles in Xp on a network. In documents and settings there is a folder called 'user' and another called 'user.domainname'. I think in all cases these are users who have had their pcs replaced and it seems that when a new acount is created on the pc it...

I've just installed a NAS server running 2003 storage server. It has fixed IP and is part of a single domain. I can browse to it from another PC or server, but when I try to create a new folder or file it says "access denied" although I have full rights to the whole disc. If, however, I make a...

On two new machines running XP SP2, Office Xp SP3, I have the following symptoms: Word is left minimised on the toolbar, Outlook receives an e-mail -the user replies to the e-mail, and on hitting "Send", Word closes without an error message. The only reference to this behaviour I can find to...

Thanks - I had founf this list of LDAP errors before, but it doesn't list error *%. The other parts which refers to the LDAP service not starting properly, says it is cured by SP" -I'm running Windows 200 SP4, and the servers (3 of them) have all been rebooted twice since this error started...

Has anyone had the message "Search request to the LDAP directory server has timed out (85)". The LDAP directory in question is held locally on an e-mail server and the client is Outlook 2002 sp3. It never used to happen and suddenly every time we type an internla maila ddress there is a long...

Thanks -I've now resolved the problem thanks to someone else who had posted an earlier message in the browser forum here. In essence the answer is - open the registry and delete two values which relate to screen size in internet explorer HKCU\software\microsoft\internet...

I'm designing a web page in Word 2002 -when I go to Web Page Preview , the internet explorer page opens minimized every time -I just get a small horizontal bar with a title and the minimize, maximize , close, buttons on, which has to be opened to reveal the full page. I've set IE6 properties to...

I've got the same problem with c: drive not having enough space for an upgrade to Veritas backup (needs 540mb just for an update!). Swap file is aleady on drive d: (which has 50GB free). According to windows help I can right click on the volume in Disk Administrator and choose "Extend...

I had a look at some of those links, but its way over my head - it seemed to take about three pages of obscure script to achieve something simple. Is there some definitive list somewhere of what commands are available for batch scripts which windows understands?.

Thanks Joel, but it doesn't work... I just tried mapping a drive M to a program that only medical users have access to. Everybody got drive M showing, but those not in the medical group got "Access is denied" when clicking on it. So it sort of works, but that way everyone is going to...

It's me back again! I've been trying without success to give individual groups their own drive mappings following the advice some of you gave me earlier in the year. I have a group called IT of which only I am a member. I want to give the IT group a drive L, but not anyone else. I've tried: If...

I have a laptop with win XP Home (SP1) and Office 2000 recently installed. On opening Word and typing just a few characters, I get a "windows has caused a serious error" message . (I can' t remember the exact wording , but its the one which tries to send a report to Microsoft). I've...

Yes -we're running Word 2000 on XP pro with no problems. If fact you can mix office 2000 and XP if you want -after upgrading to office Xp, several people objected violently to word 2002 (mainly the mail merge function!), so I installed word 2000 along with outlook 2002 etc and it works OK.
