Use cacls or xcacls - export settings to two different files and finally compare this two files using WinDiff or similar tool

Here you go - it is about memory "optimizers" (another memory-related hoax): http://emea.windowsitpro.com/Windows/Artic...1095/41095.html

Setting pagefile is HOAX!!! And one of the most resistent around internet Moving pagefile to another HDD is good idea, but setting it is NOT GOOD IDEA! For more informations go to www.sysinternals.com and read Mark´s article about memory management. However with 4GB of ram you should think about two things: 1.) load some stuff to memory instead of pagefile (there is tweak to do this). 2.) add /3GB switch to your boot.ini. IT IS NOT ONLY FOR PHYSICAL MEMORY, so everyone with server, that have more than 1GB of memory should do this. It is specially recommended for Exchange server.

2dman: Nope... I am talking about Monad implementation (\Device\Harddisk0\DR0 etc..)

If you want to use quotation, use /" instead of ". But I must agree with MHz - dont be so lazy, it will save you a lot of time if you do things as they should be done

It IS mail server Best page to begin is http://www.microsoft.com/exchange/default.mspx

2dman: wait for longhorn is only thing I can say

It needs 2k/2k3 server... Sharing diaries and contacts are only small portion of Exchange functionalities

Why?

echo %date:~3,11%,%time:~0,5%,%username%,%computername% >> \\Server\Logs\Logon.csv Output will looks like 08.06.2005,13:05,mzugec,VL10396

I must agree with Fat, Slipstream is always better... However SP4 was not producing errors on my network - 10/1500 machines had problems (which is nothing)...

There is not limit for batches... Probably longest single-command I am using is this: \\server\instal\technici\user\_working_on\usmt\bin\scanstate.exe \\server\instal\technici\user\_working_on\usmt\profiles\PC1 /i:\\server\instal\technici\user\_working_on\usmt\Bin\MigSys.inf /i:\\server\instal\technici\user\_working_on\usmt\Bin\MigUser.inf /i:\\server\instal\technici\user\_working_on\usmt\Bin\MigIsm.inf /i:\\server\instal\technici\user\_working_on\usmt\Bin\ExcludeDir.inf /i:\\server\instal\technici\user\_working_on\usmt\Bin\IncludeFiles.inf /i:\\server\instal\technici\user\_working_on\usmt\Bin\sysfiles.inf /compress+ /l:\\server\instal\technici\user\_working_on\usmt\logs\PC1\SaveDetails.log /progress:\\server\instal\technici\user\_working_on\usmt\logs\PC1\SaveSummary.log /o /v:1 /c /localonly /user:Domain\User1 /user:Domain\User2 /user:Domain\User3 /user:Domain\User4 (this example is with expanded variables)

2Brando: I am not running under administrator (domain) - I am technically local administrator, however with restriction - everything except console is running under User...

On your server using GP you will "publish" software for users... This is something different from SMS

Look for Publishing software... Assigning software will automatically install it, Publishing will provide it in Add programs

Why software? Use logon script...

I got two scripts for this purposes: First one is using actual Outlook configuration Option Explicit Dim objOutlook, objNameSpace, objMail Dim strAddress, strSubject, strBody, strMailItem strAddress = "martin.zugec@gmail.com" strSubject = "Test" strBody = "Automating send test" Set objOutlook = WScript.CreateObject("Outlook.Application") Set objNameSpace = objOutlook.getNamespace("MAPI") Set objMail = objOutlook.CreateItem(strMailItem) objMail.Subject = strSubject objMail.Body = strBody objMail.RecipIents.Add(strAddress) objMail.Send SET objOutlook = nothing SET objNameSpace = nothing SET objMail = nothing Second one is using SMTP, so it is Outlook-independent. Option Explicit Dim objEmail, objNetwork Dim strComputerName Set objEmail = CreateObject("CDO.Message") Set objNetwork = CreateObject("Wscript.Network") strComputerName = objNetwork.ComputerName With objEmail .From = strComputerName & "@domain.com" .To = "martin.zugec@gmail.com" .Subject = "Test" .Textbody = "Testing mail delivery" .Configuration.Fields.Item ("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/sendusing") = 2 .Configuration.Fields.Item ("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/smtpserver") = "pred-hub.pre.cz" .Configuration.Fields.Item ("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/smtpserverport") = 25 .Configuration.Fields.Update .Send End With Set objEmail = Nothing Set objNetwork = Nothing

PNG will be in IE 7.0...

Yes, it is the date, when beta will expire and will be replaced by full version

Well, ICMP is really important in first phrase of attack (inventory)... On my DMZ I got ICMP disabled, my internal network supports ICMP. BTW it is not port, it is protocol.

You are welcome

There is internal command Netstat /b or you can use Fport
