Catalyst 3560 Switch (IOS 12.2(55)SE9) Windows Server 2008 R2 MDT 2013 I want to setup multicasting for my imaging network (vlan 2, 192.168.2.0). This won't go over any other networks. I'm not familiar on how to set this up, so maybe someone here can assist? I have IGMPv3 snooping...

Anyone experienced this before? I have 2012 R2 shares that seem to be mapping correctly through User GPP, but the 2003 R2 shares are not (all in same GPO). I'm using Item Level Targeting to map to members of certain security groups. Interesting enough, if I log in with a problem user account...

Some info: http://blogs.msdn.com/b/ie/archive/2014/04/02/stay-up-to-date-with-enterprise-mode-for-internet-explorer-11.aspx All my workstations are Win8.1 Pro and IE11. Some websites require to be part of the Compatibility Mode list. The only way I was able to do this (across the domain)...

We have a user with Office 365 Small Business Premium, and he has multiple exchange accounts for different companies. Is there a way to setup multiple exchange accounts on one Outlook profile? This is Outlook 2013. I've Googled around, and it seems like there are ways, but they don't seem...

I'm looking to upgrade my home network, and I was looking for articles/resources online to help me plan this out a bit. This is my rough idea: - Remove existing Cisco RVS4000 router, and replace it with a Ubiquiti EdgeRouter Lite - Add a TouchSwitch PoE PRO 8 port switch to add a few...

I have a Windows Server 2012 R2 Standard DC that is also acting like a File Server, and I was asked to turn on Auditing. It seems that my manager would like to know whenever a user account tries to access the files on the Home Folders (Profile tab). Furthermore, the Auditing should also record...

I am upgrading 75 workstations from Windows XP Pro SP3 x86 to Windows 7 Pro SP1 x86. 50 workstations will be at the main office, 20 workstations will go to four remote sites. 5 workstations will be spares and placed in storage. Roaming profiles is being used on this network. Under the...

Not sure if the news has already been spread around the forums, but I just heard about this today. http://www.joshodgers.com/2013/10/06/vmware-certified-associate-data-center-virtualization-cloud-and-workforce-mobility/ I passed the VMware Certified Associate – Data Center Virtualization...

I created a global security group called "PrintOps", and added my users in there. I added PrintOps to each printer object in my print server (Win2K8R2), and gave it "Manage Documents" permissions. I was then informed that my users couldn't cancel jobs (they got "access denied"). I then went...

I've been tasked to create a report of all the NTFS permissions of the file server (essentially who has access to what...). This file server is a Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard box (guest VM), and it doesn't have FSRM installed. I'm looking at PowerShell scripts to do this, but from...

I currently have the following Cisco devices: - Cisco RVS4000 (default settings, essentially...) - Cisco Catalyst 2970 series (not currently configured since I don't know how...) I have a Linksys WRT54G (Flashed with DD-WRT acting as an access point only) that is currently failing, and I'd...

We're a small company (50-75 users) with about 30+ applications on several Windows XP and 7 workstations and laptops. We got a lot of onsite and remote users. We're getting new computers (x64), and migrating to Windows 7 SP1 solely. I'd like to audit the current computers before the...

I'm looking for "best practices" on how to set up a user account for one Jr Admin, which will most likely be only helpdesk analyst and desktop support. However, in order to further train him into a system admin role, I'd like him to have limited access to resources such as Active Directory...

Just wondering if anyone had any luck with the password notification balloon that appears in Windows 7 through Group Policy (Interactive Logon: Prompt user to change password before expiration). It seems to just go away too fast for end users to realize that they need to change their...

One of the clients that I work for recently purchased a client relations management (CRM) piece of crap that apparently interacts with Outlook 2007. I installed the add-in with support of Junxure (the vendor) on our Citrix servers, and it worked for about a day, then it didn't show up again...

I'm designing a Remote Desktop Services (RDS) Server with Windows Server 2008 R2, and I'm limiting the things the end users can do as non-administrators. This will not be a member server of the domain, and all user accounts will be local. I'm noticing that I can't seem to disable PowerShell...

I've been asked to do some simple workstation audits on 50+ workstations (laptops/desktops). I don't want physically do this, so I figured I could use Windows utilities to do this task for, or even use WMI/VBS/PowerShell to get my results. I've tried using systeminfo.exe /computer, and I've...

I can't seem to RDP to a Citrix server with the following: "mstsc /admin". However, I can connect with "mstsc /console" or even "mstsc" alone. I am able to connect to the other Citrix servers (same OS) just fine with "mstsc /admin". Client: Windows 7 Prof SP1 64-bit Some info about BAD...

Since SBS can't do trusts, and there are about 50-75 user and computer accounts in AD for this project, I will probably have to do a lot of manual work for the migration process to Server 2008 R2. I was wondering if someone had a checklist, or some links, that would be helpful for this (e.g...

Whenever the end users try to go to an external webpage (e.g., www.google.com), they receive the following message: Network Access Message: The page cannot be displayed Error Code: 403 Forbidden. The ISA Server denied the specified Uniform Resource Locator (URL). (12202). The Firewall...

Would like to make a couple of public kiosk stations onsite (bank). These kiosks should use IE, have the address bar available, and have the maximize/minimize/close buttons disabled. I saw "iexplore -k" and F11, but these don't do what I would like. Group Policy for IE doesn't seem to have...

Anyone have a link/tutorial on how to set up a global disclaimer for a client using Exchange Server 2010 (SP1, probably)? I saw this TechNet article, but I'm trying to visually see this first before trying it out. I'm curious to know how I can test this on a "test user" before implementing...

Anyone ever had any success establishing a two-way forest trust between the following: Forest A # of forests = 1 # of domains = 1 Forest function level = Windows Server 2000 Native Domain function level = Windows Server 2000 Native Forest B # of forests = 1 # of domains = 1 Forest...

Never done it. I don't have enough information to provide right now, but I was curious to know if anyone has ever published a SharePoint 2010 site before, and how did it turn out? I figured I could use something like Citrix or RDP/Gateway, but apparently that's not an option due to licensing...

I was curious to know if anyone knew (or recommended) any centralized software that can allow "group video calling" (similar to Skype), and is either cheap or free/open-source. The group wouldn't be more than 10 people at a time (estimated 4-6 people at most per grouped video cast), and...

Some end users are receiving this type of undeliverable message when sending out to their clients. Generating server: mail.company.com some_client_name@client_mail_domain.com #< #5.7.1 smtp; 550 5.7.1 Service unavailable; Client host [external IP address] blocked using Blocklist 2, mail...

I ended up using ADMT v3.2 to migrate 10 Windows XP SP3 (not SP2) and Windows 7 workstations from a Win2k3SP2 domain to Win2K8R2 domain at a local client's site. The client has about 4 more remote branches, so they are on a T1 or less line. I believe they might have about 5 workstations at...

I'm in the process of installing an application server that requires SQL Server 2008 R2 (x64) on a separate device. However, I'm noticing this error message whenever I try to install the application through its proprietary configuration tool: ERRO: CheckDBCreation failed to create database...

After running TreeSizeFree, it was reported that there was like 300 MBs worth of data in a Recycle Bin (S-1-5-21-3094799250-2468337858-4041181700-2156) from a deleted user account. Not sure how to remove this.

I built this test lab so that I can do software upgrades and test out new applications. Unfortunately, it seems like it is very slow, and whenever I ping the 5 virtual machines (either by IP address or DNS name), it times out. So, packets are dropping. Also, the virtual machines say...

NOTE: I wasn't sure where to post this, so if there is a different forum for my type of question, please move thread accordingly. We have a market research company that uses Confirmit to create/design surveys. Whenever the end user wants to export any data from it, the data gets compiled as...

Sometimes I get assigned a task to create a new folder in a shared folder that end users do not have access to creating. However, I do. What I don't have is access to changing permissions on the new folder I create (i.e. ACL is gray'd out for me and I can't check/uncheck permissions in...

I'm sure this has been asked before, but I can't seem to find a specific answer :\ I want to delegate permission(s) to edit (read/write/delete/modify) the users contact information found in Active Directory Users and Computers (Win2K3) which reflects in Exchange 2K3's GAL. I don't want to...

This has probably been asked before, and I can't seem to find a definite answer in Google, so figured someone here might know of a fix. This is the problem. When I try to open an attachment (.pptx) in OWA2003, I am required to Save As locally. If I comply, the file type gets saved as a .zip...

NOTES: Exchange Server 2003 R2, IMF, Symantec Mail Security Is it possible to block inbound/outbound external e-mail addresses/domains per mail account? I have a user who keeps transferring work data in/out our environment via her personal @yahoo or @gmail e-mail accounts. She has already...

I'm thinking of purchasing a Pepwave Office Point 200 device. Unfortunately, I can't seem to find a manual on this product so i can read how to administer it or deploy it out. From their manufacturer's website, I like the specifications and the features. I just don't know the steps-by-steps...

I'm having problems at the office with this Savin C3535 multi-function device. It seems to be getting a lot of misfeeds everyday (> 30 times). The misfeeds seem to be in Section A (Tray 1), and Section B. I've attached some pictures for better understanding. Message on printer...

I'm having a hard time trying to find something like this, so maybe someone can help me out. Issue: when a user presents me a laptop that has been hit with a virus. My policy states that I need to reformat the hard drive to keep it clean. However, user(s) want to keep their data regardless...

My boss found some old discs that he purchased back in 2006 from CBTNuggets.com. He was about to throw them away, but figured I could use them since it could help me learn. These are the following videos: Cisco CCNA Certification Package (Exam Pack 640-801) Cisco CCSP Series: Securing...

I am looking for a simple solution for Wireless Guest Access at my office. I have a bunch of clients that want/need the Internet to do their work while they are visiting us. Currently, they are just connecting to some Linksys WRT54GS devices which are connected to the same network as the...
