    Can I use the same email address on a new server?

    Hi All, I think I know the answer to this but need clarification. Five years ago I set up a SBS Server to use the Exchange Server part to handle the company's email. That server is now getting too slow and overburdened so I intend to relieve it off its email duties. Having purchased a new...

    Postponing Scheduled Tasks

    Well I'll bear that in mind, it's never been a problem in the past but it gives me something to consider I suppose. Thanks for the info. Regards, Rockabee

    Postponing Scheduled Tasks

    Thanks GrimR for the reply. I shutdown the servers because I don't like the idea of the system/network being unattended for 2 weeks. Why do you think it is a bad idea? I only have 3 servers and a small 75 pc network it's no big deal. Regards, Rockabee

    Using GPO to add user to Local Administrator Group

    Hi All, I am sure this must be a simple task but not being a programmer I am having trouble sorting out the syntax. I have a network whereby the users will quite often sit at different machines from day to day. Our software writers will dump software updates onto the server overnight. In...

    Annoying Profile prob in XP Pro

    Hi all, As a newbie to XP Pro I thought I was doing well, I look after approx 50 PC's running on a 2003 server domain. All the machines perform as expected and browsing through the settings on each machine I find things are as they should be, except MY machine. In Explorer instead of the...

    Using Excel to crack the Lottery

    Curiosity, that's all Ken, By working the Mode out of each column after they were put into ascending order and then the Average of each column I could find 2 lines of numbers that on paper "seemed" to be more successful, incidentally the Mode numbers have been more successful over the last 180...

    Using Excel to crack the Lottery

    Thanks for the replies guys, I am not missing the basic premise or think for one minute that a PURE LUCK system such as the lottery can be cracked. It's just like a said, a fun thing that threw up something in Excel that I didn't know how to do. No matter what system you employ you're odds...

    Using Excel to crack the Lottery

    Hope the title of this thread has drawn enough interest to help with this problem. Just for fun and something to pass the time during lunch breaks I have been wondering if Averages and MODES could be used to gain just a little bit of an advantage in predicting the lottery numbers. In the UK...

    Removing the Printers and Faxes listing from the Start Menu

    Hi y'all, I am using Windows 2003 Server with XP clients. I need to "tie down" the desktops of a group of users to just two icons, the programs I want them to run. So far I have managed it using GPO but there is one thing I cannot seem to find. How do I remove the Printers and Faxes listing...
