  1. have you checked? they cover berkshire.
  2. care to share?
  3. congrats, how do you get to be a mvp?
  4. strawberry

    Policies

    have you run gpupdate /force on them yet?
  5. our courses back up twice a week, our server once a week. We keep course 100 couse backups (a year) and replace the server backup weekly.
  6. sorted..kind of... the images were playing up, once i made them huge i found they had certain regions that would work, so moved to buttons.
  7. Restore printers and drives (staff) then use the call to vbs to launch the exe. Set objShell = CreateObject("Wscript.Shell") objShell.Run "\\share\program.exe"
  8. Below is my code, it will run the first bit no problem, however it will only run the second bit once the first has been run. The end bit requires parts 1 and 2 to have been run. I'd prefer that all buttons should just work!. Button 3 works every time. Help Topics Audit edit// It seems that the 3 problem icons all show the same code when you hover over them, it changes after each click though
  9. congrats chap, Maybe this mob will tell you about digital signage
  10. kinda works for me, It'll ensure that you always have a valid working ip address and if server 1 comes backonline before the end of the lease it can pick up where it's left off.
  11. nooo... Pc1 will try to renew it's ip, server2 will look at its request and dismiss it as valid. When pc1's ip expires it then looks for a new ip, which it will receive from server2.
  12. it wont, server 2 will know that the ip address is valid and so wont attempt to renew it. i think once it's expired then server 2 will dish it out an ip from its range.
  13. nope, hand it in when you want, they cant ask you to reseign.
  14. profiles of all servers, routine tasks,quirks, change logs, ip address, physical layout of network, logical layout, brief overview of images/deployments, external contacts, license documentation
  15. it will be in your network connections properties. If you can you can try right clicking on the network icon in the taskbar, open network conenctions, right hand mouse click, properties.roll down to tcp/ip then properties on that. Setting Up a Static IP Address in Windows XP The next problem will be finding the password out!. I'd speak to the company and ask them to provide the right documentation or do the install again.
  16. connect to your network via a cable.Then set your computer ip to be 10.92.142.99 and the subnet mask to 255.255.255.0 , then run the dude and see what it finds. because your computer is likely to be on a different subnet it wont know how to route to the new subnet unless you tell it where to look ( which is setting static routes and a bit overkill for this) so you just place your computer on the same subnet.
  17. are you on the same subnet as they are?. you will need to be for them to respond to a ping. Once you are yuo can use a program like "the dude" to automatically detect whats on your subnet.
  18. have a look in a magazine called the parkers price guide, should give you an idea of which cars to buy. At present some some cars are very cheap because they use too much fuel so people are looking to sell. a new car will lose around 30% of its value in 2 years, add onto that the interest and you will be mighty skint. Also you can get a classic for not a lot of money, i'd love to have an older golf GTi if i was earning enough to fuel it!.
  19. could you not set it as teh default user profile and use a script to delete the net profile folder at log off?
  20. depends, a lot can happen in 5 years!. The cd/dvd could develop physical problems (heat, scratches) , it could go missing, or you could leave your job and no one would know what the heck it was or what to do with it!. If it were on tape you could for instance change the tape drive you use, or even lose the program you used to back the data up in the first place. We keep it long enough that the child can return to the school without losing data or that they can appeal a mark. To be honest though, its their data, not yours!. Probably worth giving them opportunity to copy it and remind them that it will be gone.
  21. best bet is to speak to whomever would shout at you for this!. Remember most media wont last 5 years, we keep the data untill september, then we move it to a folder taht doens't get backed up and remove all the huge files from it, then once the modification date goes over a year we nuke it.
  22. one mans security is another mans inconvenience. you need to take this matter to the manager who oversee's you both, your job is to run the network, this fella wants you to comprimise what you do to make his job easier. You need to find out what your manager thinks and ask him how you should do your job in light of this bloke making demands.
  23. no, but bozteck is similar, VNC manager - VNC scanner - Terminal Server console - UltraVNC, RealVNC, and TightVNC
