    TS Licensing - Migrate to a new server

    I have an older servicer with TS licensing installed, which needs to be decommissioned. This will require my TS licensing to be migrated to a new server, and presumably also re-activated. I've been doing quite a bit of searching around and while there is adequate information on both activating...

    Internet Explorer Maintenance GPO Weirdness

    Here's the scenario: Domain is Server 2003 SP1/2000 Server SP4 at 2000 Functional Level, clients are mixed 2000 SP4 and XP SP2. I have 2 GPOs at the root of my Domain: Default Domain Policy and Internet Settings. The latter is kept separate so that I can implement a "No Internet Access"...

    Microsoft Exchange System Attendant failed to read the membership...

    Hi, I'm getting the dreaded "Microsoft Exchange System Attendant failed to read the membership of group 'cn=Exchange Domain Servers,cn=Users,dc=etc'" error. My Exchange Domain Servers group is under the Users OU (and always has been), the computer account is definitely in the group, AD Sites...

    Outlook Cached Exchange Mode Security Concern

    Hi all, Just a very quick one which I hope someone will be able to answer. What level of encryption is used on OST files when Outlook 2003 is configured in cached Exchange Mode? How secure would it be if my PC, containing an OST, was stolen? I've searched all over the place and can't find a...

    Veritas 9.0 question

    Hi, Did you ever manage to get this working? I have the exact same problem with the exact same hardware. The trouble is that HP claim this device is compatible with Backup Exec, so it should be possible to get it working. It's a USB *Tape* Drive, BTW, not a disk drive, so it won't show in My...

    Time sync in a domain environment issue

    Hi, All of my XP Pro workstations are configured by default to sync with "time.windows.com". Obviously, in a Domain environment I do not want this, so I run "net time /setsntp:" to clear it on my master machine that I create my images from. Then I Sysprep it, and when the SID is regenerated...

    IE Maintenance GPOs and Proxy settings

    Bumping this one up cos I just got it solved and the info may be of use to others. If you're relying on an IE Maintenance GPO to deploy proxy settings, you need to make sure that the policy containing this GPO is the *only* policy you *ever* *even* *touch* the IE maintenance settings on. If...

    IE Maintenance GPOs and Proxy settings

    Up until now I've been deploying Proxy settings via login script, which works well until a GPO background refresh overwrites them. This is despite the fact that Proxy settings are explicitly *not* set in the IE maintenance part of the GPO. Is this normal behaviour or am I hallucinating?

    Backups hang for 7 hours then start and run OK

    Version 9.1, fully SP'ed and patched up. It's a dedicated backup server too, so there's no major data handling jobs happening on it. I've already "been there, done that" with the whole backups and anti-virus thing - there's no scan jobs running at the same time (unless I have a rogue network...

    Backups hang for 7 hours then start and run OK

    Here's a weird one for you... After quite some time, I've finally got Backup Exec tamed and almost working perfectly (the secret is to keep the setup as simple as possible...) Every single backup has succeeded for months now, I'm getting almost a gig a minute to LTO 2 tape, and everything...

    Office 2003 Installation Weirdness

    I'm installing Office 2003 for a customer via GP. I've done this for 1200+ PC's last year, and it worked flawlessly almost every time. This time round, however, almost every one gives me a "Product Blah has not been installed for the current user". Everything I can find points towards either...

    "The Specified Network Name is no longer available"

    We ended up installing Backup Exec on the NAS box. Everything wotked perfectly and has been doing so ever since. Speeds have almost doubled too. It would appear as though BE is VERY finnickity about network throughput in that kind of config, with any minor glitch kicking off an error. I...

    Oracle Forms Builder "Page Can not be displayed"

    It's possible you may need to configure your browser to bypass a proxy server for your own machine. Having it set to all "local addresses" does not seem to be sufficient - you need to explicitly give it a machine name.

    "The Specified Network Name is no longer available"

    Howdy, Roughly half of my backups are failing with the above message. There is nothing consistent - a backup may run perfectly for a few nights, then fail. They do not even fail at the same point in the backup. I'm on 9.1 (fully patched up) running on a dedicated backup server, and backing...

    SharePoint web part database access

    Bit more info - it's a double-hop issue. http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/sds/sds/troubleshooting_authentication_problems_on_asp_pages.asp I'll post the solution that worked for me here when I get it working :)

    SharePoint web part database access

    I'm unsure if this properly belongs here, in an ASP .NET forum, or in an IIS or SQL Server forum... Basically, I have a SharePoint webpart doing some database access. The SharePoint site is on MACHINEA, the DB on MACHINEB. SQL Server is set up for mixed SQL Server/Windows authentication, and...

    DCOM Event ID 10010 Causing Backups to Fail/Hang

    Mine started working again after a complete rebuild of the server!!! To be honest, in this day and age, anything that requires a reboot after installing rings alarm bells with me: a sure sign that it's messed around with critical OS files. I must speak with my manager about investigating...

    adding new assembly to the GAC problem

    Howdy, I'm trying to add a new assembly to the GAC on our development web server, and have gotten as far as using "sn -k" to generate a key, edited the AssemblyInfo file to point at the key file, compiled successfully, but as soon as I attempt the add operation I repeatedly get told that I need...

    How can you see what PC a person is logged on to on the domain?

    I just write the current user name into the computer description using a logon script - works a treat and lets me get the info from users and computers.
