Hello, Just have a little problem, I have a server which is hosting a website, some teachers can access this site by just typing in the name of the server in Internet Explorer while other have to type the servername.domain.local, to access it. Does anyone know how to make it so that they just have to type in the servername. Thank you, C3sium

Wpad you dont need to push out with GPO it is picked up as soon as they connect to the network. Ipads are unable to pick up on my .pac or .dat file. There is a firebox x550e installed, I have contacted them to see what I can do with that. They said I can block all traffic with that except for my proxy server, or the proxy that servers will be on. But he won't tell me how to do it, as the registered installer we had install it, had 2 or more days training on how to install it. He doesn't know that at the end of the year I have to decide if we keep the firebox or not. By the way I like the way you speak about Cats! Thank you, C3sium

That is even better, Do you know if this works with iphone, ipads, ipods? Do you know of any good resources for this procedure? It took me a week to figure out why Wpad wasn't working, due to hep files leaving out a regedit modification Thank you, C3sium

Hello, I am wanting to setup a captive protal if the proxy is not set, The captive portal only has to say "setup your proxy please", No login or paying screen. I would not want to setup another computer to do this. Is there an easy way to do this? I have internal Windows 2003 server to reside this page on. Thank you, C3sium

Also, does anyone know of any good tutorials websites that will be able to assist me in the implementation of windows server 2008? For example the WSUS, Web and print services. I am new to the setup of a netowrk from scratch. Thank you, C3sium

Hello all, I am trying to setup a few machines running in VMware workstation 7.x, I have a Windows 2008 server, Windows 7 x64 and Untangle server. I have a question about how to network them so that they run Windows 7 connects to Windows server then to the Untangle box. What is the best option to run these connection in? such as the untangle to the Host machine in "Host-only" or "Nat". Also someone might know this I also want to run a DCHP service were would this be best placed, on the untangle or server 2008? I am doing this as a test setup to see how / if untangle would work for my employer. Thank you, C3sium

Hello, I am back to this job now. Here is an event log in which occurs Thank you, C3sium

Yeah, I just booted into safe mode and used the 'Administrator' account to change the one I had there. But that just wrecked my syspreped image C3sium

Hello, My first 'What The ...' moment with Win7, It allowed me to sysprep without making an admin account, meaning no way to login, and change settings.... **Palm Face** Stupid me. C3sium

Hello, I have found a work around for the moment It is to add the script to run at login int the reg under 'Local machine' 'Run' But the user still have to press 'Open' to run it. Anyone know a way around this? Thank you, C3sium.

Hello, mac_shinobi, I have tired those commands this morning and it still failed. I have no idea what to do.... Here is the script some one asked for..

The scripts are running from \\mserver\NETLOGON which is shared and student can access this folder and contents(more than likly they can change it too). Can you post help on this topic to make sure I do it correctly. When I compare the scripts they are the same, from the two servers. I will try to post the script and check the logs in the morning, at the moment it is 8:30pm here. the script remove drives then map the drives and maps printers and set default printer. Yes Windows 7 desktop(dell 780) and laptops(thinkpad r500) and some XP desktops. If you have any more ideas let me know. Thank you, C3sium.

Hello, We have 2 domain controllers, and they mirror each other. Anyone got any ideas?? I had to run the script 10 times last period, very over it! C3sium

Hello, After a few periods of testing, it has reduced the number of computers affected but not completly. Any more ideas? Thank you, C3sium

Hello, Yes I am running a Pioneer Dreambook, not even an atom chipset. It is a VIA C7-M and works like a treat, didnt need to find any drivers. MS score of 1.0 cause lack of GFX I would recommend it. Format all computer and place windows 7 on them.... C3sium

Hello, I have found both of those commands in the GP and have enabled both of them. Looks like I have found a new job, Looking through the GP and testing.... I will give that a go today, see how they go over the course of the day and report back. Thank you Jamie.

Hello, The script runs fine when one at a time, but it is when it runs at the same time... it fails Also I did not write the script, or setup the GP. I will have a look at that tomorrow cookie, and report back. C3sium

Hello, It is on windows server 2003 entiprise edition SP2 Thank you, C3sium

Hello, I have this problem of not running logon scripts, I have come up with the problem being that to many people log on at one time causesing it to get skipped, how can I stop this? I am wanting it to only be on the one server, so all users can access it and if it needs to get updated it is easy to do. It seems to only affect the Windows 7 machines. Though sometimes XP machine do it too. I do have this code in it, should I make it so it randomly makes and number between 100 and 200 and then run it? --> 'Wait until the user is really logged in strUserName = "" While strUserName = "" WScript.Sleep 100 ' Wait 1 second strUserName = WSHNetwork.UserName Wend strUserDomain = WSHNetwork.UserDomain <-- Thank you, C3sium

Is it wired or wireless? just check the prioity of the network. If all else fails, do my fav thing of ghosting it...

Hello, Is there a way in which I can stop the documents being placed inside the student folder, and I am not sure if this affects it but I am running Windows server 2003. Also do you know what program is causeing it? Thank you, C3sium
