Print Server with papercut WinServer 2019 -> 2022
farmeunit replied to k-strider's topic in Windows Server 2019
Same here. Upgrading to 2022 were possible, but need to migrate our print server due to Papercut db corruption after an upgrade, but it wasn't caught until 3 months later. My Server 2012R2 started to BSoD repeatedly during boot, so did a restore from backup and now want to upgrade OS, as well. Server 2022 was released in August. We have it stable several servers including 1 DC. -
Correct. Never use the v4 drivers. They're built into Windows and have very basic functionality. You should always get the v3 driver from the manufacturer.

We install 2019 and use AdamJ's WAM script. No issues for 3 years. We did have issues before that. As for the printer updates, then sensible workaround is to use a registry key to disable the need for an Administrator and then set a few other settings. With WSUS, you could at least block them. Without it, you just take what Windows gives you and you're stuck installing them manually. If you think Google Workspace doesn't have it's own issues, not sure what to tell you.

What did you do to default profile and how? I asked the company that provides our solution and then suggesting using GPO and and XML file to set the Start Menu options. I'm looking into it, but not sure yet, if that is how to handle it. They said default profile is getting harder and harder to work with. So just tried to decide which way to hear. I'm "fairly" familiar with imaging and application packages. We use ZENworks, ENGL (imaging add-on), and ZENworks for desktop management/applications. I have use SCCM, but on a limited basis, and WDS, even more limited, but understand the logic behind it and task sequences. Just need to translate that into a ZENworks environment.

@Tefters Can you give me more info on your solution. We use a third-party tool to prep our images, but hoping that I can use your solution with ours to make this happen.

Followup: I used the previous post and add /S in between the command and path. For version 7: wmic product where "name like '%%examview%%' AND Version ='7%%'" call uninstall /nointeractive For version 8: wmic product where "name like '%%examview%%' AND Version ='8%%'" call uninstall /nointeractive

I cannot find a way to uninstall versions 6.2 and earlier from command-line. I can silently remove any newer version using the MSI uninstall string. It shows in Add/Remove, but not the registry or using a WMI query. For the uninstall string that it DOES show in the registry, it's "C:\Windows\unvise32.exe C:\ExamView\uninst5.log" I'm at a loss what to do. I found out how to silently install the new version, but would like to automate the uninstall as well.

Thanks. I found that info a little later. I did several steps and not sure which worked. I set four things in GPO in that section, and I also changed the credentials for DHCP. They started populating last night and cleared themselves out (I only have an 8 lease time for DHCP right now, also, but upping that to 3 days. I was initially afraid to touch the credentials as I'm new to the position here and new to AD also, coming from a Novell/eDir background and DHCP/DNS on Linux. Thanks for the tip.

How to do this on ALL machines without touching them?

What bad experiences? It's something we're looking at.

On a side note for Acronis, they have a Universal Restore which will put in drivers you specify, or just remove the drivers and once the OS is up and running install the drivers afterwards. I don't image across processors, but this has worked on every different Intel chip I've tried. There are admittedly better ways, but it's quick and easy. It will also change the SID.

Joomla 1.0.x | RokWebify : Free Joomla Template : RocketTheme | All Template Gallery | Gallery of the Best templates available There is link to Joomla 1.0.x below the picture. I haven't tested, so . . . Why you want to 1.0 version?

I second JoomlaPack. It's awesome. I install it on every site I put up.

I would get at least 2GB of RAM or whatever you're budget will allow. I would actually drop processor a little before going with just 1GB of RAM. Depending on what you want to do, you can get faster Dual-Cores for cheaper than the Quads. Quads are really better for video/audio processing and editing and things of that nature. I know Windows 7 has better memory management than Vista, but I'd still go with 2GB minimum.

We've been looking at something similar, not sure exactly which ReadyNAS model, but we are also looking at an Iomega product. Iomega StorCenter ix4-200d NAS Server - NAS server and other Workgroup NAS Servers at CDWG.com It is apparently VMWare certified, although I'm sure the other will handle it. It's a bit cheaper than the ReadyNAS we were looking at.
