    Workgroup to W2000 server.

    ...is perfect until you try to print. i hear that. i have 3 locations across the country TSing into a fourth, each having one or two printers at their location. all drivers are loaded on the Tserver, and i'll be darned if it's ever easy to get your printout to the right city. nevermind the...

    Windows 98 Clients having trouble logging on to W2k Server

    romort, no to your question. i guess one answer is to "wait and see" if that fixes it. i briefly read about what op-locking is, and i dont fully understand it. i guess they really dont need it disabled.

    Windows 98 Clients having trouble logging on to W2k Server

    im curious about where romort has taken this. i too have a client running sbs2K and win98, but no resolve yet. im wondering if i should bother getting that update or changing wins if it wont help. also, does the wins service even need to be running for <10 users?

    remote desktop fails login

    when i connect to any system outside my office it will work fine. if i try and reconnect at the end of the day, or after any long period of time, it says &quot;unable to make connection.&quot; so, all i have to do is log off, then log back on and it works fine. OS is XP, of course. most of...

    REAL slow logon

    after entering my password, the dialog box says &quot;applying personal settings&quot; and sits there for 60-120 seconds. ive found only one source on this and it says it may be attributed to DNS somehow. anyone have anything more to add to this?

    Exchange 5.5 size limits

    or, per user, check each recipient under the limit tab.

    Limit bulk forwarding by users - outlook/exch 5.5

    found a great answer for that: http://www.exchangeadmin.com/Articles/Index.cfm?ArticleID=6256 I've protected my large distribution lists (DLs) by giving only administrators permission to use them. But how can I prevent users from sending mail to the entire Global Address List (GAL)? You can't...

    Upgrade OS, not Exchange

    and absolutely dont put Win2k SP2 on or else your stores will not start. one or two exchange DLLs are not compatible with SP2.

    SBS 4.0 Exchange to SBS 2000 Exchange

    this was a pain for me to figure out, so ill spare you the time. simply log a client onto the old, copy the public folder data to a personal folder, log him onto the new one and copy it back. btw, after calling MS, their answer was this: uninstall exchange2k, install E5.5, copy the pub.edb and...

    How can I send web information through e-mail?

    if under IE, your options are 1)send a link, or 2)send a page. i know if you send a page, the whole thing comes up when reading the message, so i would gather it would work in the preview pane. also check your mail server as well as the client to make sure you can look at html and not text...

    How to have one internet e-mail account go to multiple mail boxes

    one option might be to &quot;leave a copy one the server&quot; under the advanced tab of the internet mail profile. then all users will &quot;get&quot; a copy of all the mail when they check. then once somebody deletes it from your mail server all users would have a copy of it in their...

    Upgrade?

    nt cals are no good with win2k. maybe buy the win2k that comes with 25 cals, and then buy another 25 pack (or numbers of 5 packs) when needed. you also say 50 users. does that mean 50 machines (ie per server or per seat)? tell me MS licensing is easy, and ill buy a macintosh!

    Netmeeting through ICS

    i was trying to get away with not using any gatekeepers or other software. could you give a few more details on what exactly to put in the port fields (ie incoming port ranges). any pages that ive found explain it in proxy2.0 terms whose dialog boxes made more sense. when i try a port range...

    Netmeeting through ICS

    Has anyone got this to work? Server is Win2K, int/ext clients are Win98. MS has all these port settings to configure (dynamic UDP) and I can't figure out how to open each one. Nor can I find any info on general ICS port usage. Netmeeting pages say &quot;ICS has trouble with dynamic...

    Outlook Rules Wizard/Out of office-&gt;Mail Redirection

    use neither and have exchange server do it. recepient->DeliveryOptions->Forward to another email (with option of sending to both). but what you first have to do is create a new custom recep with your SMTP address, set up the forwarding, and then hide the custom one from the GAL so it is...

    Reply Emails

    under the [recipient mailbox]->[email address] add a new one that makes no sense, and then click &quot;set as reply address.&quot; ive tried this as a joke and it fools most people. i dont know if the real sender remains in the hidden message header (view->options).

    changed the name of the computer housing exchange

    maybe try the restore again and before you add it to the domain, go to the PDC->server manager and remove that PC from the domain list (file->remove from domain). i too sometimes rename a workstation rather than remove it, but try that first.

    Newbie Q - how do you share a common contact list?

    if you put the contact list in a public folder, then it is available to anyone you give rights too. our company has a central contact list and a central calendar with 5.5. also, bring up your personal contact list and simply copy to the public folder, dont bother with exporting. dont know how...

    Backup Job failed event id: 57745...advice

    does your backup selection list acurately reflect your explorer directory list? i.e., if you deleted a folder, does backup know about it. how about resubmitting the job with a new selection. what is the backup program?

    Hard lockup, Exchange 5.5, Win2k, Veritas 8.5

    i had a similar problem... W2K, SP2 Exchange 5.5 SP3 Veritas 8.5 and MS said to remove SP2 since it doesnt work with exchange 5.5. my issue was the store wouldnt start, but the directory would (so backup failed). i dont know if you want to try uninstalling SP2 because you seem to be working...
