Is it possible to offer access to Remote Apps based on membership in AD Security Groups? Lets say if you are a member of the App_Office group, you will se only the Office programs, and if you also are a member off the App_Admin group, you will also se some extra Remote Apps, just for the administrators. So basicly the AD group membership should decide which Remote Apps you have access to. How can we accomplish this with TS 2008, TS Web Access and TS Gateway?

Having fought off attempts of WindowsUpdate to automatically install SP3 on our laptop, I find that Update still tells me the update is downloaded and ready to install. Where is it, and what is its file name? Cheers, S

I have a legal xp pro system for 2 computers and in the last 2 month have been having hardware problems and have had to reinstall several and move a previously installed system to another computer. Now Microsoft is treating these two installed systems like they are bootleg ones and cutting off several important licenses and aren't letting me download updates . How can I get them to see these two systems are legal. (I hate to admit this I seem to have lost the original answers sto this question. ) Please resend your responces

I stupidly downloaded the new IE 8 beta, now I cannot use "Find" on any web page. Does anyone know how to report problems for this Beta version? Does anyone know how to revert back to IE 7?

OS: WinXP Pro SP3 I just discovered that there are two (2) 'Add or Remove Programs' entries in the 'Control Panel'. Both are opening independently and are functioning/responding normal. What is causing this abnormality and how can I remove the 'extra' listing? I rebooted twice but the 2 entries remain in the 'Control Panel'. (My most recent download/installation was Java jre-6u10-windows-i586-p-s.exe) TIA.

I am attempting to use diskshadow.exe on Windows Server 2008 RTM. My question is specifically with the "writer verify" and "writer exclude" commands. The technet help at http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc771649.aspx is fairly non-specific. It tells me that the syntax is “writer exclude [<Writer> | <Component>]” and that “Writers are specified by ID.“ But it doesn’t tell me how to specify <Component>! For example, I can get the writer ID from “vssadmin list writers”. No problem, and that works great. As an example: writer exclude {542da469-d3e1-473c-9f4f-7847f01fc64f} works fine. To get the components, I go…

I had this issue until I used the /silent switch on the batch file. Open the properties of your scheduled task and put a /silent switch on the end of your RUN command.

Hello, All! After installing the Opera browser as my default web browser I decided that it was not all it was cracked up to be. I uninstalled it. Now, my IE works fine for most browsing, but if I click hyperlinks imbedded in email (I use OE) nothing happens. Some of the hyperlinks in my favorites menu also do not function. I went through the process of resetting HTM, HTML, etc. file association in Windows Explorer(> Tools> Folder Options> File Types) - or at least I think I got them all. I even re-installed IE6. It's been several years since my last Win2000 OS load, and I am planning on re-imaging my sytem next month - but I don't want to do it r…

We have added a hash rule to software restriction policy to "disallow" user from executing the Window Live messenger (msnmsgr.exe) However, we would like to allow certain group of people (ie: Customer service colleague) to run the Live Messenger, so I created an OU, then add another hash rule to msnmsgr.exe and set it to "unrestricted", and then put all customer service colleague in that OU. But I found that this does not work, it seems that the OU's "unrestricted" rule does not override the Default Group policy's "disallow" rule. And now all the customer service colleague cannot access Live Messenger. Would anyone can help on this ? thanks

Hello this is a question is continuing my question of yesterday :"get message:no program is associated with this file to run this..." on my research for recovery or restoration tool I downloaded "Microsoft Diagnostics and Recovery Toolset" (eveluaton version for one month) which create a booting cd that may do a system restore.

Hi, I created a Scheduled Task on Windows 2003 Server. Sometimes I have to start the Task manually in a RDP Session. The Task is starting a simple batch script. When I start it manually the Script is running in the DOS Box. While it´s running I´m logging of my session. Then the task is stopped with the following Error Code: c000013a. When I do the same action on a Windows 2000 Server the task is still running when I log off from the session and when I re-logon. Anyone has a suggestion to get the same behaviour on Windows 2003 ?
