Thanks. I will check in the morning to see what version I am running on.

My AT command would go out and run a bat file for me. The AT command is done in DOS. You can drill the command down to run on certain days of the week at certain times. There are many other parameters that can be used as well. Let us know if this works for you.

I ran into this issue as I was putting a program together to run a routine on a pc. What I came up with is to use the AT command. This doesn't require a password. Load it on the machine as Admin. After it is in place, if the user isn't an admin the scheduled task runs. You never have...

I have a folder on my desktop that points to a location on another server that I have to paste a file into each week. Now that I just installed Windows SP2 on my machine each time I open the folder I get a unexpected Windows error has occured. When I click here to see what the file was that...

There were some commands to turn on and off a particular program that I was wanting to hide. The theory is the user community that we have isn't that smart to dig into looking at a bat file. What my thought was after doing this posting was to make the bat file hidden. That way if the user...

I need to figure out a way to lock a bat file that I am using. There are a couple commands in bat file that we don't want people knowing, but are necessary for bat file to run. I have been searching the web and haven't found anything. The pc's I will be running bat file on are Windows...

All the pc's didn't get SP1 downloaded to their machines. The newer imaged pc's had SP1 on them. Manly all my older imaged XP machines got the SP1 download. Is there some documentation that actually indicates that having SP1 in place is the key to getting SUS to work? Been working with...

I need some help on SUS. Back in May we had SUS push out the patch that would protect from the Korgo virus. Just last week we were hit with a nice bit of computers who contracted the virus. What we noticed is that all machines don't appear to be getting all the patches we are sending...

During the initial deploy of SUS, I never had any problems with it. When do the deploy in small numbers at a time after hours, all went well. As far as timing goes, when we do future SUS rollouts normally we tell people they are coming and to start expecting them within 24 to 72 hrs after...

Zenworks 4 is what I am using at work. Once you do your patch management using Zen, it should be much better. Do go to Novell's site for more info.

We also did SUS to get Windows patches out to all the desktops in the company. Since we use Zenworks in our offices, we got the intital SUS rolled out using ZEn to deploy it. Due to the concern that the network would grind to a halt with everyone downloading Windows XP sp1 at the same...

Go out to Novell's web site and do some homework on Zenworks. We use Zenworks for Desktops to push applications out to users. Works great. We are currently using Zenworks 4 right now. Right now Novell is pushing the introduction of Zen 6.5 if my memory serves. We use it to push any...

I just installed Norton's Personal Firewall on my HP Pavillion that has Windows ME. The computer has been working just fine until I installed the firewall software. Now I get various errors on my computer. The one major issue is when I dial up into the internet ( all I am in is AOL), I get...

We have a SUS server that is pushing Microsoft updates to the desktop and it works just fine. We used Zen to get SUS started at each workstation initially, after that all works well. We have been pushing security patches down like that since January and it has been working well.

Go out to Novell's site and look up Zencleanup. It is a free download. This application will clean up a program that has been loaded on the computer with all it's assoicated files. This might clean up the problem you are having. When we have a application that isn't working right, many...

Rule of thumb, any application that the user can make use of remotely ( i.e. Word, Excel, etc...) you want to turn disconnectable on as was mentioned above. You don't do it with everything because if a app needs to be connected to the network to work, you don't want that icon showing up on...

Print Spooler problems.....I had this problem after we upgraded the Client on the workstation to 4.83 and went to Windows XP workstations. As I did some research in Novell, there is a TID to correct this. I actually had the TID number at my desk at work. Take a look around in Novell...

I just upgraded to Zen 4 on the server and I am currently in the process of upgrading the client on all the workstations ( majority Win XP Pro workstations ). We were told not to start Zen off at the workstation anymore with nalexpld.exe. You should always use naldesk.exe to get zen...

Has anyone installed Dragon Naturally Speaking ver 7 on Win XP Pro and had problems?

I am having problems with Dragon Naturally Speaking 7 Preferred and Groupwise 6.5. I wondered if anyone had any insight on this. After Dragon is installed, this gives the user the ability to dictate directly into applications on their desktop instead of typing. Several people I installed...
