Scheduled task question
by Guest Mark1- 1 reply
- 249 views
I have a scheduled task set up to run the following every weekday morning at 9am: NET SEND MYPCNAME "Don't forget to run the Daily Report" It works great as long as I don't ever turn my PC off. If I turn it off, say for the weekend, the task will not run on Monday (even if the computer is back on before 9am) and the task status says "Could not start". I know that you may be asking, "Why not just do an Outlook reminder?", but my company uses Groupwise, not Outlook.

Group Policy is blocking Internet Explorer
by Guest T_M_P- 2 replies

Hi All, I applied some restrictions via Local Group Policy to a pc with Windows 2000 SP4 and Internet Explorer 6.0 Sp1. I have an intranet application that need to open a new page of IE when the user click a button on this application, but when they do it, they receive the message: "The operation has been canceled due to restrictions in effect on this computer. Please contact your system administrator." Ok, I'm the system administration and I really don't know what is the exact setting that is preventing the user to use the application. I tried to disable the User Configuration part of the Local Policy and it works so I think the problem is there, but…

Can I filter items in Start Menu Documents list?
by Guest Clueless in Seattle- 0 replies
- 212 views
The Documents list on the Windows 2000 Start Menu is quite a handy way to access the files I use often. But the problem is that when I play MP3s, each MP3 ends up on that list, and soon the MP3s have crowded out all of my useful files. Is there a way I can tell Windows to ignore my music files when I play them and to not add them to the Documents list? Will in Seattle a.k.a. "Clueless"

Drive 1 not found
by Guest Bill Watt- 2 replies

PIII 1.O GB. Dell Win 2000. It's my daughter's machine. Suddenly when booting they got the message: No hard drives found. Hit F1 to continue, F2 for Setup. Hitting F1 just returned the same message. In the BIOS Drive 0 and 1 were set to OFF. I tried to set them to AUTO but they reverted back right away. In the BIOS I removed DMA then tried it. No immediate help. Finally, the message said only secondary drive 1 not found, hitting F1 booted normally. I restored DMA and it continued to boot normally after hitting F1. Windows Explorer sees both drives normally and they can be accessed as usual. That's where I'm at, boot stops until F1 is used. …

IIS 5.0 W3Svc will not start eventids 202 116 7023
by Guest RM-admin- 4 replies
- 301 views
I have a single Windows 2000 Server in a small domain. The local Intranet site is hosted off of this Server with IIS 5.0. The server is updated to SP4 with all security patches. The IIS service sometimes starts after reboot but the admin page is inaccessible as is the IIS Admin mmc. I am not sure but it seems to be an issue with the registry or metabase. I have resinstalled IIS 5.0 several times to resolve and looked at several KB articles. Where should I begin? I have a MPS report if needed. --------------------- Event Type: Error Event Source: LicenseService Event Category: None Event ID: 202 Date: 11/27/2007 Time: 11:39:37 AM User: N…

Notify of New Document?
by Guest Randi- 2 replies
- 311 views
All of my different offices are connected to the same server - or they can connect to the same server. We all have access to a Drive, where we can all save things and all look at them, etc. I am wondering if there is any way to automatically be notified if a new file has been created in a folder? Basically what I am looking for is something that can be used instead of the public folders in Outlook, where if someone posts something there or sends an e-mail to the specified address, it notifies you that there is a new document. My company is not utilizing this feature in Outlook, so I am trying to find another solution. Currently I am receiving large…

How to automate Network Password on bootup?
by Guest zeke7- 6 replies
- 354 views
After installing the Gmail Notifier tool, every time I reboot my Windows 2000 Pro, the "Enter Network Password" menu pops up awaiting a response from me. My username and password are filled in in the menu cells just fine, but I still need to click the button to get logged on and close out the popup window before I can see my desktop in its entirety. Is there a way to automate this procedure so I don't have to click the Log-on button and instead have the window close out automatically? I'd like to be able to boot up and see my desktop, not a menu awaiting action from me. Thanks for any suggestions.

Known problem with DC virtualization
by Guest Niveau3_TLB- 2 replies

Hi, Is this the right newsgroup to post my question? We have 3 sites with one W2K DC on each site. In the main site, we have a single DC with the 5 FSMO roles on it. The Virtualization team here have virtualized this machine, the one with the 5 FSMO roles. Could this cause problems? They did this 5-6 months ago and we are starting to have DNS and AD with users loggin in the domain at the start of the day. Regards,
