The guyz who originally setup our exchange 2003 server installed 'Ihatespam' and 'trendmicro ScanMail'. The reason for scanmail was to protect against viruses, trojans, etc as the other program just does spam filtering. The Management console for ScanMail is installed on default Website, which...

So I presume Front-end server will be able to queue incoming messages, incase my other server is down?

Hi, We have a single Exchange 2003 (Stand. Edition) server. I am concerned that if this server goes down, users will be out of emails for a long time. I like to setup another box with exchange 2003 running in parallel. Is that going to work like having an additional domain controller...

I think I found a better and easier solution. I went into Active Directory\computer configuration\windows settings\security settings\file system and added c:\documents and settings\all users\desktop folder and it prompted me for the permission I like to grant. There I gave everyone full...

I tried to run the script on the same directory as XCACLS and it is still not working. How can I incorporate UNC path in your script? Lets say '//butterfree/xcacls' is the UNC path where xcacls.vbs is located? Thanks for quick response.

No charm! Let me tell you how I am doing the test. I am trying by copying and pasting into txt file and renaming it to .vbs. And then running it. Also, this is done from Admin account, so no issue with permission. Does XCACLS.vbs file, which I downloaded from Microsoft needs to be in the same...

I tried to run the script on virtual machine, but it did not change any permission. Is there anything I am missing? Do I need to change default scripting engine from Wscript to Cscript? Thanks.

Awesome! I am gonna test it on my virtual machine and let you know. Thanks...

Hi Mark, Ok, I was able to use xcacls to change permission on all users\desktop folder. Now the question is how can I deploy this to all computer via group policy. cscript.exe xcacls.vbs "c:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Desktop" /g Everyone:f /f /t /e /l "c:\xcacls.log" Thanks for all the...

Thanks Mark. I am working on it right now.

Is there an easier way, so that users can delete shortcut from desktop? I gave everyone Full control to All Users\Desktop folder and that actually seems to be working. Is there a script or registry that can beployed via group policy?

But, how come My Documents is not acting the same way? Can you elaborate more on ShadowCopy? How can I enable it? Also, is there a simpler way to delete desktop shortcut from user account? I couldn't find a way to take ownership while logged in as a user. btw, on a different note, I like to...

Hello IT compatriots, I have setup a group policy that redirects My Documents and Desktop folder on to network share. The problem is that when user accidently delete item (doc, shortcut) from desktop, it goes to lala land. Completely vanishes! It is neither in system's recycle bin nor in...

I recently did somewhat similar task with the exception of using same name. Overall it was very smooth process. I did exactly what roadki11 has prescribed. I waited two weeks before the final decomission of old DC. The next day users complained they couldnt access their network share. They...

I like to know if there is a way in group policy so that I can install one application after another. I will be installing new XP images on client computer. Ideally, I like to setup group policy in a way, so that after computer joins domain, upon restart it starts to install Office 2k3...

I have a Windows 2000 AD domain controller, which is also hosting DHCP, DNS, and File server. Exchange server has already been migrated to Windows 2003. Now I am planning AD migration to windows 2003. We are going to purchase another hardware for the new domain controller. Ideally, I like to...
