I've taken a look at http://technet2.microsoft.com/WindowsVista/en/library/5ae8da2a-878e-48db-a3c1-4be6ac7cf7631033.mspx?mfr=true But i'm a little confused here.. do i need to copy admx files out to our 2003 R2 server? If so.. i'm not sure from where i am copying them either... On a vista client.. logged in as domain admin.. do i simply run gpedit.msc and edit the "vista workstation" policy and this will somehow apply to all Vista boxes in our domain? Is there a way to use gpmc.msc and create vista policies? When i run gpmc.msc from the vista box.. it says it is version 1.02 c 2004... Shouldnt it be version 2.0? Thanks

I'm interested in getting WHS. I'm using the 120 day trial and it is working seamlessly with my Vista Ultimate PC. I had no problem using WS2003 with XP, but Vista doesn't want to play nice with it.

How to setup a recycle bin for network drive?
by Guest Ray- 6 replies
- 437 views
As mentioned in the title, if I am using Windows 2003 Server, the client deleted something at the netwok drive which is mapped from the server side, no matter for the client or the server side, it is impossible to recover easily! We may need 3rd party data recovery ssoftware to accomplish. If u were lucky, u may recover the data from the shadow copy, but which may not be the most updated or even the data would not be existed due to it was just a scheduled task to do the backup! So, I would feel interest to setup a recycle bin for the network drive. Suppose we can recover from the recycle bin at the server side with one click. Its a million times bettere…

Shared networked printer becomes "unshared" at random intervals?
by Guest Rob Gordon- 1 reply

I have about a dozen networked printers all sharing off a Windows 2003 R2 with SP2 print server. The problem I'm having is that one of these printer tends to occasionally get "knocked off" of being shared for network printing (i.e. under properties it no longer appears as Shared), and I have to manually set it to be shared again. Three of the printers on the print server are the exact same make and model and are all using the same printer driver, and yet only one of them becomes "unshared". Any ideas what might be causing the printer to become unshared? I am the only Print Operator in the company, so I don't believe this is something that's being …

Hi Pros, I been trying to rename the current DC, from WORLDGROUPC to WORLDGROUPC by using Netdom. WORLDGROUP is the old DC with Windows NT 4.0 and WORLDGROUPC is Windows server 2003 we are going to replace the Old server to the new one, therefore, we need to change the NEW server(WORLDGROUPC) to the name of the OLD server(WORLDGROUP). the thing is, I have disconnected the NEW DC from the network when i tried rename it, so that it won't crashes with the OLD DC (which is still running) in the network. so, now the DC (WORLDGROUPC) is standalone, doesn't connect to any network, and i want to change the DC name to WORLDGROUP but in the command Prompt: >…

Hi all. It would be fab if you could help me please! I need to run 2 ftp sites on the same server (windows server 2003). I've got the first one using port 21, but need the second ftp site to use a different port I think (unless there's a way to get 2 ftp sites working on port 21? binding?). so, for my second ftp site I am using port 8001. it works ok with my ftp client with the windows firewall off, but when I turn it on and add port 8001 to it my ftp client doesn't want to connect any more. I've noticed that my ftp client is actually connecting using port 8001 but then switches to an arbiutary port number afterwards when finishing the connection. This…

I have a Dell 2850, secondary domain controller, running server 2003 w/sp2.

When I click on ADUC, I get the following error msg: Naming information cannot be located because: The network path was not found. Contact your system administrator to verify that your domain is properly configured and is currently online. I can remote into this server with no problem. I can …

Win2003R2 - copied exe files are blocked by default
by Guest Saral6978- 0 replies
- 164 views
I just installed Win2003R2 on a server. I copied a service pack from one location on a different server to my new server and the only way I can install it is if I right-click on the exe, go to properties, and specifically click the "unblock" button. I realize that this is a new security feature, and it appears to be the default setting, but if I wanted, how is this feature turned off? After my server was configured, a screen came up about updating the server and such, and I thought I caught something about blocking ports, etc. I closed the window before really reading it thoroughly. Thanks! Sara

I have noticed that I have two profiles for each user , the old XP profile and the new Visa profile .V2 After a little more research it seems that I need to …
