Static WINS or DNS entries would also do this. Tombstone all WINS entries. Delete all DNS entries.

You can edit the security settings on the Terminal Services Manager MMC snapin on its RDP connection.

Lookup the manufacturer and model no. of your scsi card. Download its DOS drivers from the website. In its readme, it will tell you how to configure it. More then likely you will be loading the driver from config.sys DEVICE=SCSI.DRV ===> an example

Quote: does anyone know of a script i can use in the logon script to have it only use one script for win98 and one for win2k+? Try using the batch file to figure out which OS you are running. IE = if %OS%!==Windows_NT! set ostype=NT Heres a link to help you with your further scripting. And if you are supporting both 9X and NT, try kixtart as a scripting language. http://www.robvanderwoude.com/robnavbat.html

If its an HP printer ... wouldnt it be easier to just get jet direct boxes rather than having them use an entire machine for just 2 printers? In regards to your Quote: ANONYMOUS LOGIN (S-1-5-7) , it sounds as if its an unclaimed SID ... in other words a lost account. Was a chkdsk run after the power loss to make sure there wasnt any corrpution.?

Quote: how do i create Ghost's boot disk Purchase the product and run the ghost boot disk wizard. If the machine is FAT32 based you can duplicate drives using some fancy batch file scripting (XCOPY and SYS) to "duplicate" your drive onto another drive. Another easy way is to create dynamic disks (2000 and XP) and mirror them. Then break the mirror and you have again 2 copies. Christianb is correct in saying that the ghost scsii drivers are included with the boot disk .... if not you will need to load the DOS drivers yourself.

That may work on clean installs of an OS but what if you have numerous applications installed .... you would need to go through shortcuts, the registry, maybe INF/INI files to redirect static entries from "g:\" to "c:\" If such is the case, I believe with Partition Magic there is an included utility to do such a thing. 2 cents

Basically I have a one week business / vacation trip to Atlanta coming up and I was wondering what your opinions were to do down there .... even things to avoid. As always, thanks for any input.

13 hour card ride is a bit much hehe ..... nice to be home. Atlanta is DEFINITELY someplace I will seriously consider in moving too. It truly is an amazing city. Just wanted to say I made it out alive of the little 5 Points area APK lol ..... more laterz Sleep x) x)

Driving down saturday morning. I have heard to check out the underground mall and buckethead (is that correct?). I would LOVE to catch a Braves game. Definitely gonna do my best for that one. Basically the thought is, I would like to move down south, preferably Atlanta within the near future, and I was scoping out the terrain and possible IT positions. A lot is up in the air and I figured this would be a good place to start. APK, microcenters are the sh*t .... I had one about 15 minutes away when I still lived in NYC .... my home away from home Marietta ehh? I will have to take a drive and see if its as sweet as you say it is. Thanks for the input guys .... cya all in a week or so EDIT If I move down there, LAN games are at DosFreak's House

Drivers ..... drivers are a big thing .... just because some are certified for XP, doesnt mean they will work / work consistently with 2003. My $0.02

Perhaps an elective wouldnt be such a bad idea. I vote for something with ISA 2000, as it can be be applied to the new MCSE security certificiation. The beta tests are coming out in August or so, I'll let ya know how they are. Clutch is correct, Active Directory has gone through some major changes but nothing most admins will truly use in a single domain single site context ... unless of course they will use ADAM.

Someone broke their Premier contract and leaked the link .... publically it will be out June 30th.

Just be carefull about what you keep in the roaming profile We have had users save rather large files in their My Docs and were forced to remove certain file extensions from being saved upon their log off *.mp3 *.rar etc etc Just a little warning

Yes you can be both MCSA and MCSE as long as you fulfill the requirements. If you look at my profile you will see I got both I myself plan on getting my CCNP this summer Good luck, lemme know if ya need further help.

No issues here running Office XP on a win2000 platform.

http://dev.remotenetworktechnology.com/cmd/tscmd.htm Should be all the syntax you need. Though I dont understand ..... Terminal Server Manger MMC allows you to see who is logged on while you are at the console or connected to a terminal session. You might wanna try using VPN access to remotely manage your TS server. Thereby you wont have to open port 3389 for RDP.

I agree with APK .... experiment with the vaules that will work for your setup. You could always setup a caching DNS server or Proxy/Caching server if you truly wanted an improvement.

Ummm depends on what limit you are talking about? If its the amount of TCPIP connections to a machine ... its 256. Windows 98: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\VxD\MSTCP Add/change the value: MaxConnections=100 to 256 The maximum number of machines in a workgroup is limited to a list that can only be 64k in length. So it will not show all the entries for a very large workgroup. Physically ... the number of ports on a switch

You need all your users to be local admins? ..... was thinking of making all of mine Domain Admins .... kinda makes you wonder if any of them would ever notice 8)
