Home Server Backup - XP Laptop Hibernate

[Guest TimBo]

Hi, I have the HP MediaSmart versionof WHS, and so far, so good, I have been

please with what it delivers. It meets my needs for a simple home server

solution.

 

The backup causes a slight problem, however. If I hibernate my Laptop (XP

Home Edition SP2) the WHS backup wakes it up, performs the backup, and SHOULD

then hibernate the Laptop - but it doesn't, so I keep finding the Laptop

running when it shouldn't be.

 

Anyone else found had this problem, and know of a fix?

 

Also, is there a way to change the Workgroup name?

 

All tips and pointers gratefully received,

 

Thanks

TimBo,

You can Remote Desktop connect into the HP WHS and change the server name

and workgroup. Somewhere I read make changes liek this could cause some

problems, but I can't imagine why. I have chagned mine and everything seems

to work fine.
