First, thanks for your ideas. My VPN is site to site, so your print server suggestions re. AIX print queues and UniVerse queues gave me enough to get started. The printers are serial (a legacy from 2 systems ago), but ip-based print queues look easy to set up. Thanks again.

Hi all, I need to find alternatives to the current setup: an AIX server (runs our business apps in UniVerse database) in the main location, multiplexed serial ports carried over a leased line to a branch location 90 miles away, the serial ports are for terminals and printers. We also have...

We have been running a UniVerse database on AIX for as long as that technology has been around. (It was Prime Information before that.) My setup has been that the desktops are the thinnest of clients, basically terminals to the RISC box, like we used to use mini-computers ["back-in-the-day"]. We...

As you have correctly observed, the scanned output is b&w only. Since the device doesn't print color and the scanner portion is primarily designed to input information for the printer section (a "copier" function), it would have been outside of the standard design to use a scanner (& software)...

OK, can you tell that I'm a command-line person that doesn't normally work in a "Windows" (or any other kind of gui) environment. Believe it or not, I had never heard of this use of 'focus'. Sorry to not help with the original problem, but it shows how educational this site can be, even for us...

If I understand you correctly, a "program losing focus" is when the display gets fuzzy and indistinct, right? If so, I would suspect some hardware problem: your monitor or videpo card or cables. Try to substitute one thing at a time and see if the problem continues or goes away. If I...

Hi, sometimes that's a connectivity or communication issue to your provider and not an outlook issue. A way to test it is to setup a new (different name) occurance of that account, with the same userid and password. Use the account setup wizard and execute the "test settings" option. If you...

Hi, I have had one PC on my network (of 25) that does this, and it's with an IBM-branded wireless mouse. In our case, we could not even switch to another application and the user thought her PC was "posessed". It is as if the "left-button" is stuck (which it is not, mechanically). The mouse...

Over 20 years, our company has owned 3 different systems from Iwatsu and we are still using the last one. They were solid systems with competitive features. A local vendor provides service (and also sells/installs Nortel and Cisco) and they have been very responsive. I would look at them...

hi, just to add to what stduc said: this could have so many different causes that we would just be guessing. In narrowing things down between hardware (and then to device, motherboard, power supply, etc.) and software (OS, driver, application) you need to be much more specific about all of...

Hi, I think you'll find that it's not the scanner hardware that makes a difference, it's the software. There are many other packages out there, from < $100 to many thousands. The software that is packaged with any scanner is an inexpensive compromise; if you really want to do this, you need a...

Hi, I assume you are getting this message on a "send & receive" (normal process). You can get a more detailed picture of what's happening if you (run Outlook) and go to Tools>E-mail Accounts>View or Change existing accounts>select the account; click "Change">click "Test Account Settings". You...

Hi, We have a p520 (AIX5.2) system that currently has 2 independent 36GB disks. I want to add disk space and setup disk mirroring for redundancy. So, 1) is disk mirroring the same as "RAID1"? ibm sales says I need to add 2 drives (min.) and a "RAID enablement card" to do this. So, 2) does...

If there is no "savedump" that linney refers to, that reinforces the hardware trouble idea and my guess is most likely a marginal power supply. 'Burning' requires more power than reading, if the power supply can't supply enough current, the voltages will drop to the point that the motherboard...

thanks for the explanation, and yes, this network "was" peer-to-peer, and I'm in the process of joining all to the domain. Some of the older systems were Win98 or XP Home and are being upgraded or replaced as I can get to them. ---Will

Hi to all, I'm really confused about how to implement Exchange Server on our SBS 2003 domain controller. We have added this server to essentially a peer-to-peer network [about 12 WinXP Pro clients, hardware firewall, shared DSL for internet access]. Our email is hosted by the same firm that...

All of my reference materials say that you must be using "Exchange Server" to use this (Out of Office Assistant) feature. We do not have an Exchange Server and my systems [Outlook 2000, Outlook 2002, Outlook 2003] all seem to bear this out, in that the option doesn't exist. If anyone has the...

Hi, we had a user with a laptop PC that started doing this same thing with 7.51 corporate edition. As the others have said, this is no longer a supported product. The malfunction started with the next update after 7/31/05 which is when Symantec officially considered it over! Fix: step 1...

Hi, Windows NT 4.00 does not support USB devices on its own. There are many third-party drivers available, tho, I'd start with the company who made the memory key that you use, or "Google" for "USB on NT" and you'll find many choices.

thank you both, and apparantly "error reporting" is independent of error & event logging, which I still want to have. There's always something else to learn, isn't there!
