Hi, Can someone explain me how max inbound connections work in windows XP and why I am getting the error above? Although I have only 6 W2K PCs with 4 mapped drives to the XP Pro sharing machine I am getting an error I am out of connections on the client. Is not it the connection counted per machine ? I am getting a number of client connection on a share higher then the number of machines for ex. and each client has the shares mapped once through a mapped drive and a shortcut to it on the desktop. I am looking in computer management, shared folders, shares. Thank you very much, T

I have a 2003 Server SP1 which is being used for volume snapshots (EMC Replication Manager) and BackupExec to back them up to tape nightly.

Looking for a recommendation. I have several clients using Windows Server 2008 Terminal Servers, having a problem with the print spooler service stopping. I feel that part of this may stem from the fact that not all the printers in use have drivers for Server 2008. What we did in those cases, was to use the Windows Vista print drivers, which seems to have worked. So, my questions are, was using the Vista drivers a good idea? Or, should we have used Server 2003 drivers, and if so, will they load without a problem? These Terminal Servers were put into an existing enviroment, so we had no control over the printers the remote clients have, some have mult…

I have two applications which are installed by MSI, but which then require administrative logon to each workstation to configure them. I have examines them and captured the changes which are made and it boils down to a few files I need to add to the Windows directory on the workstation. I would like to do that from a normal user logon so I don't have to visit every workstation, but how do I script that? The user logon script fails because it does not have permissions to write to the Windows directory. Thanks in advance.

I'm trying to install an Access 2007 package on a Terminal Server 2003. I can install the same package on all other computers and servers in the Domain, but not the server running Terminal Services. I get the error "Another version of this product is already installed. Installation of this version cannot continue. To configure or remove the existing version of this product, use Add/Remover Programs on the Control Panel." I've tried uninstalling Access Runtime which installed on a previous install and it still gives the same error. The main difference between this version and a previous package that worked is now this version uses ADO to access SQL Serv…

Is it possible to map a key combination (i.e. Alt+M) and have the result be a text entry? My email address is fairly long, and when I have to enter it on web sites (sign-ins, etc) I would like to be able to use a simpler shortcut.

The FAT32 file capacity is 6.96 GB and has 954 MB/13% of free space. When you try to defrag, it states you need 15% of free space. How do I reduce the files in a FAT file? tks, mac

I know that I inquired about this awhile back, but I have 2 questions on it. I can allready hear the collective groan out there and a few "OMG's" but when I uninstall 2007 before I update to 2008 where does all the quarantined stuff go? Does it go away with the program or what? And why do you have to uninstall, doesn't the new one just update the old one?

Source: Winlogon EventID: 1002 Description: The shell stopped unexpectedly and Explorer.exe was restarted. Explorer is restarting without consistency. Windows SP3 is installed and the latest updates have been applied. Previously I was receiving a pop up error: Data Excecution Prevention has closed windows Explorer. After this Explorer.exe would restart. I turned off Data Execution Prevention (DEP) for Windows Explorer but the result is the same. The error no longer appears but Explorer.exe restarts. This issue is happening to three computers on my network. One computer I have left the DEP enabled to see if once a fix is found it will solve both p…

Hello, We are wanting to install service pack 2 on one of our Windows Server 2003 machines which is running IIS6.0 and we need to know if this will stop the service during the period of the install. We understand it will need to stop on a reboot but will it stop during the complete installation of Service Pack 2. Thanks for responses in advance.

I have had 3 people this week on 3 different computers report they got a popup about a virus and to download this to fix it--which they did. Common thread seems to be XP Antivirus 2008 product. Now they have various symptoms: No Desktop tab in display properties No restore points exist or being made Can't uninstall XP AV 2008 listed in add/remove programs Ca't boot up in safe mode. ETC. Anyone know of these symptoms being caused by some malware this week ?

I'm using xp sp2 (I don't want sp3 as I've heard some horror stories about it). My Stand By was working just fine, but all of a sudden I click it and nothing happens. I'm able to shut down ok and even restart ok, but the Stand By does not respond. I've changed nothing on my computer. I would appreciate some input. Thanks

I would like to know the Windows 2003 terminal server setup is need run workgroup mode or domain mode.
