The server clock seems to run freely. Can someone advise how to maintain the server accurate and the workstations linked to the server. Thanks, Scott

I need to restore a currently working Dell Windows 2000 single DC server to another new Dell or HP server before it goes TU. No tape drive available - prefer not to shut the DC down to install a SCSI card. USB is working to external hard disk. The new server will replace the old. What is the best proven way? Acronis Universal Restore / True Image? Install W2K on new server and promote to backup DC then decomission the original DC and resinstall the apps? Restore an NT backup and hope the new server boots until I can get the new drivers installed? Other better ideas? Thanks much for any ideas.

Hi, I have a person that has a Networked Drive they once browsed, pop-up as the default directory that opens in any application whether it's Office or Reader. Where can I change this? I'm not having much luck 'googling' it. Thank you for any help you can offer, Troy

I have a small network with a Windows SBS 2003 DC. I currently run roaming profiles with the profiles directed to a separate partition on the SBS box. I purchase a second server to run as a terminal server. TS is installed and I can remote to it with RDC. My staff can remote to it using RDC as well but it pulls there current user profile. I want to direct TS users to a separate folder to store their TS Profiles. On a separate partition, I created a folder called TS Profile. I enabled sharing on it. I created a test user in AD, and on its TS Profiles tab, I entered the path to the TS Profile folder. When I test logging on the the TS as test user, it cannot loca…

After messing up mcAfee, I decided to do a system restore (Windows XP Home, SP2). After that, my own account works fine, but the account of my wife is totally messed up: starting up in XP mode in stead of 'Classic look', her wallpaper is gone, outlook can't find the pst-file, IE is missing all favorites, etc. When I look into the "Documents and Settings" folder via my account, I see all necessary folders available for her account, but when I look under her account, the hidden folders are not visible. I tried to make the folders visible via the folder options, but it is not possible to show these folders while the settings are not stored. Has anybody an ide…

Greetings, I am programming my new Microsoft Wireless Laser Keyboard so one of the buttons will open up Excel, which works just fine. However, if I push the button a second time, another instance of Excel opens up. Is there a way to create a shortcut or use a parameter that switches to the running application once it has been opened? I created a shortcut and it does the same thing; opens a new instance of the program, which I suppose is correct but... Any ideas? Rob

RE: Share permissions question Hi David, I have read every post you and David have posted re permissions i.e. parent and child inherient etc. I am not a newbie to the computer world but definitely not a Tech either:). My question is, my ex boyfriend (who works in the IT World) set up my computer. When I click properties---> security---> I have the usually Admin, My name etc, but there is a list so long, e.g. anonmyous user, remote access user, backup operator, etc. All these have full rights, meaning all the boxes are ticked. Could you please advise me if I have anything to worry about. Kind regards Lisa:) "David Davis" wrote: > Are your …

I have just spent two hours on the phone with M$ bouncing from techs and customer support reps trying to find someone who can help me install this @#$%# 5-user CAL. This used to be easy. I have a properly activated Windows 2003 Server R2, Standard Edition. I ordered a Windows Client Access License for an additional 5 users. I got M$'s white cardboard envelope by UPS that only has a greenish slip of paper in it, no disk media. The paper says it is "genuine" and that it is the CAL I paid for. Cool so far. I go to "Server Management" tool, click "Licensing" and there is an "Add License" wizard link. The form that appears asks me whether to conne…

Hi! I'm going to replace some member servers with new hardware, moving all data to the new server. The problem is, that all member servers have some local groups which are assigned NTFS rights on the disks. Now, I will copy the data to the new servers using robocopy, but this won't do much good unless I also find a way to migrate the local groups to the new servers. So, is there any way to copy/migrate local groups from a member (or stand alone) server to an other server? Thanks... - Tomppa -

My System Restore does not work. I have 7 restore points in the history, but none of them work. How can I fix this problem? Thanks. Elmo helped with my earlier CD driver problems. Bobby

Each time I try to use system restore it returns a message that the restore was unsuccessful. This started happening after a recent security suite install. I installed ZoneAlarm 2007 (ZA) and have had the problem since. I have since tried System mechanic 6 and RegScubXP to fix the problem. I do not want to make things worse. Any suggestions on how to fix my problems. I have uninstalled ZA, but am nevious without secuirty protection. Pleae help.
