We have need of the Microsoft Windows Small Business Server 2003 Transition Pack. We have a TechNet subscription, but cannnot find it for download at all. Can anyone confirm that it is available for TechNet subscribers???

I'm running a Windows Small Business Server 2003 installation, including Exchange Server 2003. It's been in place for over a year, operating without issue. One e-mail account is regularly accessed via both Outlook 2003 and Outlook Web Access (OWA). Recently, the Calendar folder shows an...

Not yet, but I'll be meeting with them (ostensibly as a meeting of introduction) after the 1st of the year. After several requests, they finally provided their SLA and executed Service Order Agreement. I was hoping to find other provided services outlined that would explain, or at least...

I just joined a New York City company for whom my predecessor signed a two-year contract for a 20mbps fiber internet connection at $2500/month. The contract has 21 months left on it. The ISP is a reseller of Cogent Communications bandwidth (a common practice). However, Cogent also sells their...

Well, here it is, short and sweet. On more than one occasion in the past, I've run up against an Exchange/Outlook recurring synchronization error of one sort or another. Invariably, one of the attempted solutions is to re-create the Outlook profile, and this can sometimes cause the "Sync...

We have a Windows Server 2003 network, single domain, including a file/print server. Nothing unusual or out of the ordinary in the network design (that I'm aware of). We have five printer queue's on one W2k3 server, serving printers of varying makes and models, all printing via TCP/IP ports...

I manage two company's (Company-A and Company-B) W2k3, single-domain forests (Domain-A and Domain-B), installed in two separate office sites (Site-A and Site-B), connected via Cisco PIX's and mutual trusts in ADDT. At one time, Company-A had personnel in both office sites, so at Site-B a file...

Thanks, both to Schtek and Linney. Both excellent suggestions to counter Microsoft's lack of foresight for this seemingly simple and useful ability. I'm a little annoyed for not thinking of adjusting the registry myself, manually or with a script, to reflect the desired username and domain...

Thanks. Knew about the policy to set no remembrance of previous logon, but that's not ideal for my users. Generally, any installations or updates that aren't distributed via Group Policy or other remote distributions (i.e., IBM Director or Symantec AntiVirus) we perform on a user's system as...

Windows XP, by default, displays in the logon dialog window the last user name that successfully logged onto the computer. I'd like to set a "dafault user name" to be displayed every time instead of the last user name, but I'm not finding any setting for this functionality. Does anyone know of...

Hi. Single-domain Win2k3 forest, running for a little less than a year, with 50+ WinXP SP2 clients. Folder Redirection of AppData, MyDocs, and Desktop folders, along with Roaming Profiles operates wonderfully. Network purring quite nicely, thank you. By design, shell folders that are...

Nevermind! Microsoft's article at http://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/windowsserver2003/library/Operations/784f8313-804b-4656-ab14-c5cf576fc30f.mspx is INCORRECT! (Who'd've thunk it???) The setting is found under COMPUTERConfiguration, NOT User Configuration as specified in the MS...

By the way, configuring the GPO editor to display preferences in addition to true policies, as outlined here: http://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/windowsserver2003/library/Operations/784f8313-804b-4656-ab14-c5cf576fc30f.mspx, does not cause the missing setting to appear. Any other...

Hi. I have a Windows Server 2003 network with two Domain Controllers, five member servers, and about 50 clients all running XP SP2. I'd like to enable Cross-Forest Group Policy processing with the domain of a sister company. A full two-way trust has already been created and has been working...

My environment is a Win2k3 domain with 7 servers and 50+ XP clients, WSUS and Office 2003 distributed via GPO, no problems with either. Today's (9-28-05) distribution of Office 2k3 SP2 installed on most clients without issue, but four of my IBM T42 laptops (I have more) and two identical Dell...

Figured out it's easier to write the script in batch: @echo off rem filename: LocalUserGroupChanges.bat net localgroup users %userdomain%\%computername% /add net localgroup users %computername%\Administrator /add net localgroup users "%userdomain%\Domain Admins" /add net localgroup users...

Hi, Mark. Thank you very much for this. I'd prefer to have central control, but your solution is perfectly workable and I'd like to implement. Looks like I'm running up against some small errors in your code however. Couple of them I was able to correct easily--a double-quote (") is needed...

Incidentally, add the Exchange server to the list of computers the user is permitted to log on to does not restore access to OWA...

In my case, I'd like to limit each user to his/her computer only. However, I don't see a clean way to do this without creating an individual GPO and OU (or security group) for each computer. As I mentioned above, setting the restriction in ADUC also locks the user out of OWA. I feel like I'm...
