    win2k server dns issues, please help...

    yeah, my initial reaction was "what with DNS is causing this?" i installed IIS and it did not do anything to help... so much for the "what did i do different thought." as i said this is a new install, when i configured the server i used the wizard and selected the...

    win2k server dns issues, please help...

    hello, i first posted this in alt.os.linux.smoothwall ng thinking i had an issue with my hardware firewall/router box. i have since determined the issue to be with my windows 2000 server. i will paste my original post to that group along with my own follow up below for you to examine...

    Remove My Pictures

    are your users setup using AD? if so, then in the policy you created for "folder redirection" for the my documents folder, there is an option to choose whether the my pictures folder follows the my documents folder or not. typically you'd set up folder redirection with the format...

    Windows 2000 Advanced Server and Internet Sharing Connection.

    when i made that statement, i was merely pointing out that i did not manually set it up. of course there has to be a gateway, but it was previously all done automatically. i guess i will look more into rras... it's just frustrating when something that should be (and at one point was) simple...

    Windows 2000 Advanced Server and Internet Sharing Connection.

    Hello, This isn't my thread, but I'm going to join in... okay? LOL I too have a single server (Win2k Server... not Advanced) with several Win2K Pro workstations. Upon original install of the server and "Configure you server" wizard, everything worked just fine, including Internet...

    How to configure a Power User Group in AD?

    Hi Patty, Thanks for the reply. jamk555 hit the same thing in another (similar) thread I had. Here's what he/she said: "In other words: 1. create a security group on the domain level that is your 'super user' group 2. assign group policy to this that gives them all of the permissions...

    How to configure a Power User Group in AD?

    Hi folks, When I had Win2K Pro on a stand alone machine I had several user profiles setup. On the local machine you have 2 main levels of access: Standard (Power Users Group) and Restricted (Users Group). The way the users profiles through AD act is as if they are Restricted. In other words...

    Just a weird situation... can anyone help?

    Hi folks, Maybe this will explain a little better. When I had Win2K Pro on a stand alone machine I had several user profiles setup. On the local machine you have 2 main levels of access: Standard (Power Users Group) and Restricted (Users Group). The way the users profiles through AD act is...

    Just a weird situation... can anyone help?

    jamk555, Thanks for the info. Here are responses to your questions. If anyone else has information, please don't hesitate to reply. The apps are run locally. How do I create a "Super" or "Power" user group? I am fairly new to AD, but this I cannot find how to do. I...

    Just a weird situation... can anyone help?

    Okay folks, I have a funky situation here and to be honest I don't really know how to word the problems, but here goes anyway: SETUP: 1- Windows 2000 Server fully configured with DHCP, DNS, and Active Directory 2-5 Windows 2000 Professional workstations All user profiles are handled entirely...

    Internet Connection Sharing Question

    Thanks for the responses. First, no ISDN is not an option nor is cable or DSL at the moment (not available in my area) or I would be a very happy person. Believe me connecting at a maximum of 28.8K with a 56K modem makes it worse... :( Anyway, I am not interested in moving the stations to XP...

    DHCP Server setup

    I haven't used Advanced Server, but on Server I didn't have to do anything. Just run the "Configure My Server" wizard and it automatically configured the server for DHCP, DNS, and AD. Up and running (and "talking") withing minutes.
