Wanting to Speed up Logon and Logoff
by Guest Kardon Coupé- 0 replies
- 187 views
Dear All, Ages ago, I stumbled across a post (either on a newsgroup, or google) that told me how to reduce the things that windows copies on a Roaming Profile, and for the life of me I can't find it anymore...I was only wanting things like Favourites, Start Menu, etc... Application Data, tmp, My Documents, etc? I don't want copying back and forth.. Hope someone can remind me of what I did ages ago to sort this problem... Regards Paul.

Scheduled Tasks - Not Killing Child Processes
by Guest AdamT- 1 reply
- 205 views
Dear all, Is there a way to get the task scheduler to kill not just the task, but also the child processes? I have some scheduled tasks which run a .cmd file each night, and the task scheduler is configured to kill the task if it is still running 23 hours later. So far, so good - but the .cmd file calls another .exe file, which doesn't get killed when the instance of cmd.exe is. So I end up with a lot of processes like: Path: C:\Scripts\gzip.exe Parent: <Non-existent Process>(3336) User: NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM State: Wait:WrLpcReply The process has some open file handles, so it hasn't finished running, but appears to be awaiting input from som…

SMTP Virtual Server
by Guest Dave Mc- 2 replies

I am wondering what the "Current sessions" under Default SMTP Virtual Server" mean ? In the right hand panel, users seem to com and go but not "my" users. Does this mean someone(s) are using my mail server ? I have the relay set to only allow ip's from my lan. Should I also restrict Connection control to just my lan ip's ?? Thanks

This is happening more and more lately... Our network is all on the 255.255.0.0 subnet with ip's in the 10.10.x.x ranges... We have 16 servers, 6 of which are 64bit W2K3 Ent servers the rest W2K3 Standard 32bit servers (all running the latest Service packs and updates) but for some reason when you go to a file share on some of the systems the Zone changes from Local Intranet to Internet.. and it wont let us do some operations with out adding that systein into a trusted site... why? this should not happen on an internal network! is there anyway to fix this problem? We have about 8 servers showing this problem now... all behind the same firewall, all on the …

Cannot change target folder location for My Documents
by Guest LincolnIT- 8 replies
- 536 views
We moved our data from a Win2k server DC to a another server running Win2k3 and noticed that the target folder location for the My Documents folder is still has the UNC path to the original server and can't be changed. We've looked for any GPO's that could cause this but none are configured. Any ideas on where/how to change this would be helpful. thanks

I'm running a Dell PE2900 on windows server 2003 with an adaptec 39320a scsi controller connected to a quantum lto2 internal tape drive. It was working but with errors throught the Veritas software. It has now crapped out and I get this error when I force feed the tape drive drivers: this device is not working properly becuase Windows cannot load the drivers required for this device (code 31). I've checked everything and all pieces are compatible. I've already replaced the adaptec card and cable....thoughts?

Local Cert Server

I was trying to setup an internal cert server for administrative use (for things like Dell's Server Manager and other hardware based interfaces) and i was able to setup cert server ok and generate certs just fine but IE still gives me an error because its not a trusted CA. I went to the http://server/certsrv and i noticed there is a link to "Download a CA certificate, certificate chain, or CRL" and i click on that and it gives me a link to install a "Certificate chain" and says that if i install that it will add it as a trusted CA, and that the server should be a trusted root CA. so i do that, it installs fine, i look in IE and i can see my server is in…
