Hi, Didn't use the Network Discovery component in the end. Our setup was pure AD with Advanced clients, and I could get all the clients using the AD components. I can't quite remember but I think I was wrongly trying to get the Network Discovery component going, but it wasn't rerally needed...

Thanks 2tired, the internet settings options did the trick. Ditto your comments in the other thread on Microsoft providing some better docs on doing a basic 1 server install. Think my SMS server is up and running at last :-)

Gradually getting there with my SMS installation... but still got a few problems that seem to take a ridiculous amount of time to sort out. Anybody solving this will probably save me about a week. Here goes: I am trying to get the web reporting working using SMS 2003 / 2003 server and...

Getting the same problem. Have you overcome it yet? Do your reports run OK if you put in a username and password? I am getting 'access is denied' or 'the reports do not exist' when I enter the domain admin password. I notice that there is a local 'SMS reporting users' group on my sever...

I am trying to install MSN Messenger using the software installation part of group policy. Well in fact, I am trying to install any MSI file using group policy as I cannot get any to install. For example I have an MSI file that will install MSN Messnger in the windows GUI, although it does...

Does anybody know the best way of allowing users to use devices (such as palmhelds, usb sticks etc) without needing full admin rights? The problem I have is that lots of users now need to synchronise devices and things with our PCs which are on a 2K domain with group policy. More often than...

Thanks for the reply. I have eventually got over the initial problems, and now appear to have SMS up and running relatively reliably. You are right, I had been using the Concepts, Planning and Deployment Guide by Microsoft as well as other microsoft literature. Its a shame they don't do a...

Just installed SMS 2003 on a 2003 Server in a w2K Domain. The problem I have is that it won't do a lot. Network discovery discovers nothing and also will not produce a log file (logging has been enabled). AD User and Group discovery sort of work(?) It is discovering all my groups but only 10...

Sorry, I have found it

Just posted that message up at same time... you can ignore that. Just one quick question - where do you change Delivery from Mailbox to Personal Folder?? In AD?

More specifically, if I want to enforce a mailbox size - do I do this in Exchange Manager (OK) and then just set up the archive settings for the folder in the outlook client?? The problem there is that the archive feature works by time, whereas the mailbox warnings are done by size - is there a...

Thanks, What services do I add to Outlook to configure as you suggested? Is it just 'Microsoft Exchange Server' ? and where do I tell it to keep the emails locally in a PST?

Thanks for the reply, we are planning to go to exchange mode for everybody but we're currently just fixing things at the moment. We've currently got about 100 users picking up mail via POP.

Because that is how they were set up before I worked here. We are in the process of moving to exchangemode. We have limited disk space as well, so it does mean that the messages do not fill the server up.

Got a strange problem with our Exchange Server (W2k SP4 - Exchange SP3) that I'm unable to fix. Many clients are using Outlook with POP to get their mail from our server. When sending and receiving, the emails will send but they will only receive very slowly (too slow to use). A reboot of the...

Typical ! just found WWIW on appdeploy - will have a look.

Hi Reddlefty, Thanks for the info. Just wondering - what is WWIW? Had a look at WinINSTALL LE to try and create the MSI file. Is it always necessary to run a 'discover' on a clean machine to create the MSI file?? Think I'm getting there, but any answers would be much appreciated.

Hi Redtech, Thanks for the links. I've just begun to realise that it is not as straightforward as I thought it would/should be. At least I know what I aiming for now. Quite a few ways to deploy directx by the looks of it - all of them look like fun :-( Thx for replying

I need to deploy a number of things to the PCs on our network, notably at the moment IE6 and DirectX 9. I was hoping to use AD's software deployment to do this. Do I have to create the MSI files for these applications myself? Can I not just get an MSI file from somewhere? I have tried to...

I have a workstation with 1 gigabit ethethernet card that supports tagging. I have enabled a 3com 4400 switch so that the port it is connected to is in 2 VLANs. Can I add another network connection in Windows so that I am effectively in 2 VLANs at the same time? I am figuring I can because...
