    Non-Hardware Specific Ghost Images

    thanks for the reply ashley... The original image was installed from a standard installation disk so is not vendor supplied. I take this means I can run sysprep on the m300 build then ghost it and the resulting image will be transportable between different manufacturers... Fantastic!! thanks...

    Citrix Metaframe 1.8 Load Balancing

    thanks for your quick reply.... Am I right in presuming that the only consequence of moving one of the servers to a different subnet is the loss of the load balancing service on that server, but it will still be visible to the farm and accessable through NFuse\PN. cheers The Purple Bro [bigsmile]

    Citrix Metaframe 1.8 Load Balancing

    Hi we have a future project coming up which may result in one of our current farms being split and the physical location of one of the servers may change . Two simple questions; 1) Does Load Balancing work across subnets and if so how much re-configuration is required. and 2) With NFuse...

    Beginning physical memory dump

    hi Ghostrider3 is along the right lines but the way you should judge how big your paging file (virtual memory) is, is by the amount of physical RAM in the machine and not by hard disk space. Basically your paging file should be at least 110% the amount of RAM you have, ie if you have 128MB Ram...

    Ghosting on a network

    I assume the machine you will be ghosting to is an NT box if so, you will need a dos boot disk with TCP/IP. Take a look at BootDisk.Com, there are many good examples of such disks, just download one of them and then modify the autoexec.bat, config.sys menu items and specific drivers for the pc...
