    Hiding Mapped Drives

    Is the issue an application that requires access to a network file resource so you have a mapped drive, (let's call it the S:\ drive), but this leaves you with a browsable resource in Windows Explorer that you would prefer was not available to the end user? If this was me, I'd be attempting to...

    Easier Power User group membership!

    My previous post assumes that the NT server is a domain controller and your users can logon with an account on the domain. The domain Users group is allocated local "power users" permissions at the workstation by making Domain Users global group a member of the worktation's Power Users...

    Internet Connection Sharing Questions

    The 2nd card is best. Run your private LAN subnet addressing from one card in the host and all the local network clients. Run the ISP assigned IP address from the other card on the host. Point all your clients "gateway" to the cable connected host's LAN side ip address. Then share...

    User acct permissions

    Sounds like the Domain Group policy is over-riding the local policy that you have activated. Try adjusting the Group policy settings. (this will mean that the users will have the rights to log-onto all servers interactively)

    App runs slow on 98 connected to 2K server

    While you are checking out the Beta site machines... I'd also check that you lab installs are replicating real work environments. Load up the machine with all the standard software that a real client would be expected to operate under, (Office, Mail, antivirus) along with all the extra stuff...

    Easier Power User group membership!

    No Power Users group natively in NT but you could use the default "Domain Users" group for the purpose. Or create your own domain global group on the domain. Which ever one you use, add it as a mamber of the workstation local Power Users Group at install time and any domain account...

    I'm betting you have got a single stand alone application there. Stuck it up on the server and are attempting to sell it to the customer as a client\server model solution. Sorry, but as a similar victim "customer", I've been badly burnt with one like this. It just won't work well in...

    Domain Controller test

    DNS can handle the netbios name resolution if configured correctly. I've just found in a simple private network, that WINS is quick and easy to get up and running. DNS is taking over as the preferred method, especially with Win2000 becoming more common. There is no right or wrong answer. What...
