Thanks Bofhrevenge, When you have questions, where do you go for help???? Do you ever get stuck on anything

Hey Bofrevenge, PSshutdown id definatley the way! I really appreciate the invaluable advice. Awesome. I hope you don't mind all my questions. I am havung difficulty at present locating a policy that will only allow a user to log on to only one workstation at a time. Is this possible? or does a...

Hey Bofrevenge, Thanks for that. Quick question: shutdown.exe is it deployable in a non sms environment?

Sorry I meant REBOOT clients

Hey Bovrevenge2, Any Ideas how to remotely boot clients in an active directory domain? Cheers T

Nice one, Thanks for the help.

Hey, Excellent, keep me posted on whether you go ahead with an exchange roll out. I want to do it soon as well. I have tried it before. Have heard its quite painful. My domain I think is setup correctly in terms of DNS and everything else. I would like to do this but just don't have the...

Okay, I have set them up as roaming profiles. Slightly different to the way you did. Their profiles still sit on the server on shared folder and they are linked to this via they profile tab. My docs for each user is on a searate shared folder on the network and they connect to it via the local...

Thats Great, What I have at the moment is a default profile in nelogon\default user. This will be the start menu and desktop users can have at the moment. This is allow me roll out this weekend. Do you think it would be possible to keep this for the time being and then set up and deploy your...

hi bofhrevenge2, Any ideas on creating a standard desktop and start menu and users can't fiddle with. i.e. give them access to programs they ony require such as office, ie and custom built software? really want to lock the machines down so they can't install progams, download them etc to...

Hey, The is no 'no overide' option. I am using GPMC. However there is an 'enforce' option (maybe new in 2003?) and yes it was enforced on default domain policy. We're not a high school?? why do you ask?. A very good friend of mine is an administrator at a high school and even he didn't know...

hey bofrevenge2, Okay here is the score. I have no idea why this is. I diasbled all password settings in DEFAULT DOMAIN POLICY and DEFAULT DOMAIN CONTROLLERS POLICY, still did not work. For some reason i then went into gpedit.msc and changed/ disabled everything there. IT WORKED!!!!!!! All my...

hey bofrevenge2, I have set a group policy on the OU and this is possible. The first thing I did was disable the password policy on the default domain policy and this did not work. Have done some research its quite possible that it is set under default DOMAIN CONTROLLERS policy. Will try it...

Hey Bhavin, Did you manage to resolve this issue as I am having the exact same problem. I have disbled the setting on the default domain policy. And on the GPO I have specified for my own OU, I have checked blocked inheritance just in case, and disabled the password settings again. Still no...

Hey Tony, To be completely honest with you your email has only made sense to me now. Thanks for the valuable tip. I didn't know much usre profiles until this experience and have a load more than I could have ever imagined. I didn't even know what the netlogon folder was and what it did. I am...

hi guys, any help appreciated. this is driving me insane. Please note i have already created my users and if need be can recreate them. The situation: Have created an OU under my Domain (abc.local) Ou is called staff. On this OU have created a group policy linked to this OU and blocked...

Hi Tony, Thanks for the reply. I was thinking of just creating a new user through active directory and pointing the home directory to \\server\homedir\%username%. Then duplicating this user whenever creating a new one and changing login name. Then deploying office to all the machines. Once...

Hey Mike, Thanks for your responses. I'm gonna give it a go on the weekend. Hopefully (fingers crossed) it will work. If worst comes to worst i'll do what you did. I will still create roaming users, but on each version of outlook installed manually redirect the store folder to a network...

Hey Mike, Sort of clear. Thanks. What do you think of importing the .adm files into grop policy to deploy re-directing the outlook store files. It should save on having to configure each version outlook individually Cheers

Mike, Been doing a little more research today. On the Office 2003 resource kit, you can download .adm files. These can be imported into group policy. You can then use these policy templates to adjust where outlook stores it pst files i.e. by redirecting to users homedrive. This I am hoping...
