    I am trying to come up with a way to append an automatic signature to every user's email messages, that fits our standard format. It needs to be able to populate itself from Active Directory account information, such as "Display Name", "Title", "Department&quot...

    Windows 2000 DHCP not assigning IP address'

    I think tomcole is on the right track when he asked you for more information. I believe the original question stated that AD is not being used. If this is the case, try this URL for installing DHCP on a standalone server, including where to look when clients don't receive leases...

    VPN Setup Advice

    the full mesh just means that every office is connected to every other office. if one location goes down, the rest can still talk to each other. another plus for leased lines is that you can control internet access from one location. When I want to control what people can access at remote...

    Creating Two Aliases for One User

    I don't know if this is the best way, but couldn't you create additional "contacts" in the directory and point them to the user's original address? Then you could make the "display name" anything you wanted. It'd sure mess up your Global Address List though!

    Need VPN that Works

    I put quite a spiel up under the "Need VPN Setup Advice" thread in this forum. I looked at a Windows based VPN before we went with a hardware based IP VPN. We put in a complete VPN solution, but due to time constraints (30 day project deadline) used an outside firm to configure it to...

    VPN Setup Advice

    We looked at doing leased lines also. The overall structure is definitely much simpler, I hope that goes well for you. Here's what I found are benefits/drawbacks of going with IP based VPN: 1. If hub office goes down, all spoke offices still have internet connectivity (Versus a common...

    VPN question on performance

    I'm in the Thin Client Camp. Go with Win2k Terminal Services and you'll make best use of your bandwidth, plus you'll have the groundwork laid in case you decide to put Citrix on top. I agree that this is best for lowest cost, centralized administration, simplicity and speed.

    VPN Setup Advice

    My company just went through this- I don't have a recommendation on good books, but I'll let you know what we did: We have a Win2k domain at the main office. Branch offices were not domain members, but were accessing email and other services from the main office. We implemented a hardware VPN...

    Looking for a good Firewall

    We put Netscreens at 7 locations for the price of 1 PIX. Not knocking PIX, but on a tight budget! Netscreen has come away with some high praise in the corporate reviews, has GUI and CLI and has been rock solid in our environment.

    Do I need to use VPN to connect two remote PC's?

    Thought I'd throw in that "technically" you don't need a VPN to connect the two. It would not be wise to do so, but you can connect the two if they both have public ip addresses (or if you have your routers configured correctly to allow it). Just keep in mind that you are opening the...
