is spring 2011 (SIMS) on does anyone know the file name? solus bombed out earlier, and i would rather get Spring 2011 done sooner rather than later. LA support is minimal or off over easter.

no don't call the gpupdate.exe (it only reboots if you say yes btw) call the API call RefreshPolicyEx Userenv.dll

you could force a group policy refresh when the cable is plugged back in, BOOL RefreshPolicyEx( __in BOOL bMachine, __in DWORD dwOptions ); might have to roll your interop

i know what your saying mate, we actually encourage the use of .net decompiler for students to learn, c/c++ compilation is a whole different ball game, are they any that will actually spit c/c++ source back out or do they all give asm don't get me wrong, I wasn't trying to discourage you, I think its a great idea and will be looking at it monday, on seconds thoughts keep it .net and I can make my own moded versions

personally i would write it with win32 / c and remove the .net framework requirement

i think that would have the same legal standing as bittorrent,

its a good idea, i like it, but you need to obfusicate your source so its not so easy to decompile string s = "You've been locked due to network cable disconnection!"; g.DrawString(s, font, brush, (float) ((((double) this.Width) / 2.0) - 10.0), (float) ((((double) this.Height) / 2.0) - 20.0), format); string str2 = "Please get a teacher/admin to unlock!"; g.DrawString(str2, font, brush, (float) ((((double) this.Width) / 2.0) - 10.0), (float) ((((double) this.Height) / 2.0) + 20.0), format); int num5 = width; for (int i = 0; i <= num5; i += 7) { g.DrawLine(pen, 0f, i * num3, (float) (width - i), 0f); this.BringToFront(); g.DrawLine(pen, 0f, (width - i) * num3, (float) (width - i), width * num3); this.BringToFront(); g.DrawLine(pen, (float) (width - i), 0f * num3, (float) width, (width - i) * num3); this.BringToFront(); g.DrawLine(pen, (float) (width - i), width * num3, (float) width, i * num3); this.BringToFront(); } this.TextBox1.Focus();

is there a file called desktop.ini in the folder? or use the search function http://www.edugeek.net/forums/windows-server-2008/53755-home-folders-renames-my-documents.html

i don't use it for replication, i just use it so as the shares aren't tied to server names,

only installed rollup 2 today. any reports on rollup 3 yet? my exchange servers work 'd like to keep it that way

i find quite often you can issue a shutdown, and it is in progress and you can't rdesktop the machine but the shutdown is waiting for you to click something on an app. you can't use the shutdown.exe option to cancel the shutdown, pskill.exe against winlogon.exe normally gets round this.

fair enough, more like common sense than money spinner then.

for future reference, if shutdown.exe doesn't work you can use pskill.exe to kill winlogon.exe

sorry i forgot that part of his post, i thought it was in response to what I was saying to him about my stack of 6 six switches re-reading the op your comment makes perfect sense.

and your point is?

Bit of an odd one.... - Overclockers UK Forums for amusement value

i did the esx boxes during the holidays. do you remember the stack of 6 switches in the server room? I've got another fibre card for that of ebay and i'm going to aggregate that link, and I've had that for 5 weeks now, Im just waiting for easter, its easier no pressure then.

that sounds/looks like it is the same as how I have our switch set for the ESX boxes. read this PDF http://www.michaelfmcnamara.com/files/HPteaming-os.pdf each specified as 802.3ad are labelled as dynamic, i would hazard a guess at the switch assisted like I said earlier, tbh I would just try 1 then the other, obviously a bit tricky over VPN especially if its the wrong one and you lose your connection, if you have to do it out of hours, can you wack another nic in it, just for remote desktop / vnc plugged into a another switch as a safety option

depends on how the switch is setup

there are options in the HP teaming util, can you send me a screenshot of it?

money spinner, nothing less, nothing more

on esxi you set it to route by ip hash, dunno about the HP teaming, i found it more hassle than its worth, try automatic load balancing or switch assisted? (i think, from memory) i'll xendesktop in and have a look, (edit: can't not hp teaming not installed any more)

err, stop. if all you need is the sccm updates to install it, then download them on a different machine (the text below is from a blog - link at the bottom ) When installing System Center Configuration Manager (SCCM aka SMS v4), it is not always possible to give internet access to the server involved. I like to have everything I need beforehand whenever doing an install. When SCCM setup launches, it tries to download the ConfigMgr.Manifest.cab from here. Overall it is best to allow SCCM to grab all the files it needs automatically because the ConfigMgr.Manifest.xml file inside the ConfigMgr.Manifest.cab file can be updated by Microsoft to point to new locations when these files are updated or moved. With that said, here are the links contained in ConfigMgr.Manifest.XML as of 12-15-07 for the RTM release of SCCM 2007, broken into groups: Microsoft Remote Differential Compression Library (x86, x64, ia64) Windows Update Agent (x86, x64, ia64) WMI (x86, x64, ia64) BITS Windows 2000 - KB 842773 (ARA, CHS, CHT, CSY, DAN, DEU, ELL, ENU, ESN, FIN, FRA, HEB, HUN, ITA, JPN, KOR, NLD, NOR, PLK, PTB, PTG, RUS, SVE, TRK) Windows 2003 - KB 923845 x86: (CHS, CHT, CSY, DEU, ENU, ESN, FRA, HUN, ITA, JPN, KOR, NLD, PLK, PTB, PTG, RUS, SVE, TRK) x64: (CHS, CHT, DEU, ENU, ESN, FRA, ITA, JPN, KOR, PTB, RUS) ia64: (DEU, ENU, FRA, JPN) Windows XP - KB 923845 x86: (ARA, CHS, CHT, CSY, DAN, DEU, ELL, ENU, ESN, FIN, FRA, HEB, HUN, ITA, JPN, KOR, NLD, NOR, PLK, PTB, PTG, RUS, SVE, TRK) Save all of those files into a directory, and simply point SCCM to that directory for the updates instead of attempting to download them all. If you are looking for a text file that just has all of the HTTP links inside for use with a downloader program, you can right click and 'Save as' the text file here.
