Is there any way I can have IE automatically configured for my proxy server? Is there some registry key?

Thanks, but is there a way to select the browser type (mine is FF) for the unattended install?

Is this a local security policy or a policy applied in advanced directory?

I suggest that you use something like Norton Corp. or ZoneLabs integrity for client-side security. Setting up windows firewall is hardly worth the trouble since it wont deliver that much more security. ...but if you insist... You can control windows firewall using the group policy, as is mentioned here: http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/...p/fwgrppol.mspx All you gatta do is open up AD, then right click the computer name, properties, policy tab, edit the policy and add the windows firewall snapin, then configure it.

Aw thank you so much That was just what I needed. Now everything is working fine.

%systemdrive% is the primary drive partition used for windows, most commonly C:

I'm trying to setup a small file server for five computers to be able to login to. Basically I want it so that each computer can login to a server with a user account that has a folder they can store files in. No internet needed. So far I was able to figure out how to install Win2k server and get it to the point where users can login successfully. But no profile settings are stored/used on the server and I just plain have no idea how to setup shared folders for each user :/ I vaguely remember setting profile paths in AD but pretty much forgot everything. Darn. Now i'm stuck. Could anyone help me out?

Further shows how amazing your work is.

Yes, WinXP and Win2000 will automatically recognize USB/firewire hard disks and install them. You will need to use disk management to format the drives and assign a letter if needed.

There is a tool that might work called checkdisk (chkdsk). Open up your command prompt and type in chkdsk.

You can get the installer from another source I suppose, or you could use some special browser hack that will prevent the OS version from being sent out.
