    Job Market for Unix Admin. Solaris 8

    I have a question, If you don't take certifications, but you want to get into UNIX then what would be the best way to get into it? I have been dabbling with Linux for a few years now and consider myself of intermediate knowledge and ability, but with Solaris or any other commercial UNIX I have...

    DNS lookup failure - error #8524

    Patty, There must be a firewall in-between the two domains. Has replication ever worked? If not then the firewall in the London office must be blocking RPC communications. I would suggest talking to one of the network engineers that maintains the WAN links (unless there isn't one) to find out...

    Group policy loopback process

    Great! I didn't know there was a key to do that. I'll make sure to put that in my information log! --James

    win2k remote connection

    Yes, but the MMC doesn't have this ability inherently - only the snap-ins such as Group Policy will allow you to connect to a remote machine. It depends on the snap-in to allow you to be able to login as the local machine. If you're prompted for username and password then just supply local...

    Group policy loopback process

    Yes - we use it on all our policies and have no problems with it. What's the problem you're having and what are you trying to do? All you have to do is create your policy on the OU that stores your computers such as: You have a group of 5 machines in a department that you want to apply...

    DNS lookup failure - error #8524

    Has the IP address of the machine changed? Can you ping the machine? Does NSlookup provide the correct ip address e.g. same ip address that you can ping the machine by? Check your pointer and host records on the dns server to make sure they're consistent. HTH! --James

    Web Sharing and Creating Network Places

    Hello folks, I have a home network of 3 computers and I would like to create a Web Share on my Windows .NET domain to a location on my domain controller hard drive. The web sharing portion was not difficult and I know I have the DNS configured properly. I created the Web Share by right...

    Hi I'm fairly new to Linux and I go

    libraries in linux are almost exactly like libraries in windows. you need to update glibc - just do a search on RPMfind.net for an updated version for your distribution. --James

    Need Help With GPO's & Windows MSI's

    You shouldn't have to create separate installers for both. I create packages at work all the time using Wise Package Studio 3.2 and they work on Win98 through WinXP. Of course it depends on the software that you're installing. If the software doesn't support Windows XP and it does Windows...

    Hi I'm fairly new to Linux and I go

    You need to upgrade to at least XFree86 4.1. To do this: read the installation howto at www.xfree86.org You will also need to upgrade your C libraries for the drivers to work as well as any dependencies that xfree86 4.1 has. Then you should be able to install the Radeon Drivers. HTH! --James

    rpm

    Run rpm -ivh package.rpm --nodeps This command will force RPM to install and not check dependencies, however, I don't recommend doing this. Check your /etc/ld.so.conf for the correct library paths and try re-running ldconfig. You could always download the .src.rpm's of this package and issue...

    Urgent : Port forwarding/routing/mapping win 2000 server (sbs)

    Leozack, You said you're running MS Firewall Client - What exactly is the MS Firewall Client? Are you talking about the Personal Firewall that is built into Windows XP? Before NAT will work you're going to have to punch a hole in the firewall to allow that port to pass on the given protocol...

    Connecting LANs together

    You don't need to purchase VPN endpoint routers to accomplish this task, although it makes the job much simpler. If both of you have Win2k Advanced Server on your internal LAN then just install Routing and remote access services on the domain controllers and configuring VPN Remote Access will...

    Cd burner on server

    Kathanon, My recommendation would be to purchase a CD-RW for users that need/use them the most. They're dirt cheap now, but if you don't have any money at all then I guess this isn't an option. Pricewatch.com lists a lite-on 24x12x40 CD-burner at $37.99 US with a copy of Nero 5.5.8.2. I'm...

    Network Printers for all Users

    LedZepRock, Just insert the code above into a .vbs file which is just a plain text file with the .vbs extension. If you use VBScript and WSH you can use it to set default printers as well which is nice if you have printers in different areas and want to set the default printer for a specific...
