  1. do you know if you can run the tzedit on Windows 2003 servers? Exchange??
  2. I got the problem solved on my servers. The issue is still my workstations... most of them jumped an hour ahead (usually, you'd think they would be an hour behind) and in Outlook Web Access (Exchange 2003 sp2) the time is also shifted an hour ahead. This is getting real frusturating... my exchange server has the coorect time based on the system clock and if you login to OWA on the server, the correct time shows... .the issue is logging in from a different machine. Even my laptop, which has the correct time, shows the wrong time when logging into OWA. I'm going to assume this has something do with the different time zone mappings, but how would I go about fixing this??
  3. I know this has been talked about all over, but I have an interesting situation. All of my servers (2003 server and 2003 R2) were updated back in the fall and worked fine until this past weekend. It seems that instead of pushing ahead one hour, they jumped ahead two hours. I'm in CST (central standard time) and although the time zone on the servers is set at CST, they are acting like they are in EST (eastern standard time). Only one server appears to be working correctly. I exported the time zone keys from that registry and imported them into one of the other servers, but no change. I tried to reinstall the patch from MSOFT, but I get the expected error that says it's already installed. Am I missing something??? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
  4. Where does your script set a password and then force the user to change the password as well as enable the account?
  5. I originally put this in the wrong forum.... my apologies. I have a script that I put together from resources on the net and it works.... well partially works. I need to reset the password for about 230 user accounts. If I put all of the accounts in the same OU, then the script I have will work... the problem is that all of the users are not in the same OU. They are all in a child OU of the root OU. IE: domain.local and then I have OU1, ou2, ou3, ou4 (ou2, 3 and 4 are child OU's of OU1). I tried to modify the script to drill down, but run into errors each time.... anyway... here's the script... anybody see any problems??? As is pasted below works, but only on the main OU.... I can't seem to figure out how to get it to drill down to the child OU's. ' --------------------------------------------------------------' Option Explicit Dim objOU, objUser, objRootDSE, objShell Dim strContainer, strLastUser, strDNSDomain, strPassword Dim intPwdValue, intCounter, intAccValue ' Bind to Active Directory Domain Set objRootDSE = GetObject("LDAP://RootDSE") strDNSDomain = objRootDSE.Get("DefaultNamingContext") strContainer = "OU=Students, " strPassword = "TRq@d2008" intAccValue = 512 strContainer = strContainer & strDNSDomain set objOU =GetObject("LDAP://" & strContainer ) intCounter = 0 For each objUser in objOU If objUser.class="user" then objUser.Put "userAccountControl", intAccValue objUser.SetInfo intCounter = intCounter +1 strLastUser = objUser.Get ("name") End if next intPwdValue = 0 set objOU =GetObject("LDAP://" & strContainer ) For each objUser in objOU If objUser.class="user" then objUser.SetPassword strPassword objUser.Put "PwdLastSet", intPwdValue objUser.SetInfo End If Next 'Set objShell=CreateObject("WScript.Shell") 'objShell.Run "%systemroot%\system32\dsa.msc" WScript.Echo intCounter & " Accounts Enabled. Value " _ & intAccValue WScript.Quit
  6. ended up using the CSVDE method.... after a few errors and adjusting the csv file, the import worked perfectly(230 accounts, 10 OU's). Now i just need to assign everybody a new password and were all set.
  7. I need to move about 200 user accounts from one domain to another. Is there a good/easy way to acomplish this task? The old domain has Exchange 2003, but the new domain does not (no exchange). The user accounts will not have exchange accounts on the new domain. I know about the LDIF command, but I was looking for a simpler way to acomplish the task.
  8. Yes, but the policy is not replicating to itself. IE... i made the change, waited for a while (now been three days) and the policy hasn't changed.... if I try to create a new user and put in the default password, I get the error saying that it doesn't match the group policy in place... meaning, that the policy I set has not replicated to itself.
  9. I have a single server environment.... running the server as a domain controller..... I have changed the default group policy to modify the password restrictions. I can't seem to get the dc to update itself with the new policy. I know I have run across this problem before, but I can't remember wht I did to fix the problem. The server is running 2003 R2 and will have about 25 computers and about 150 accounts on it. The server is used for a school computer lab. Any ideas??
  10. I guess I"ll try another reinstall and see if that works.
  11. Yes, I really got it from my msdn sub. I'm going to redownload it and try reinstalling it again. I had already unistalled office and then reinstalled it, but that didn't help. Maybe a fresh version will do the trick. This is what is listed in the event log: Faulting application WINWORD.EXE, version 12.0.4518.1014, time stamp 0x45428028, faulting module ntdll.dll, version 6.0.6000.16386, time stamp 0x4549bdc9, exception code 0xc0000374, fault offset 0x000af1c9, process id 0xcb4, application start time 0x01c73053ca85a6a9.
  12. I am running vista ultimate and am also having trouble with office 2007. I got it installed, but the problem I have is that not all of the programs within the office suite will run. They crash shortly after launching the application. I'm starting to think there is a problem with Vista Ultimate and may roll my install to a different version of Vista.
  13. I'm running Vista Ultimate edition (from my msdn sub) and Office 2007 Professional. For some reason, I can only get two of the office programs to work. Outlook and Excel. Every other program crashes shortly after opening. I have reinstalled Office and still the same problem. Any ideas??
  14. I think my file server may be sending out multiple requests to my mail server. I have run virus scan several times and come up with very little, but I'm still getting a ton of traffic on both servers at the same time. Is there any application that I can run on the file server to see what program(s) are active on the network? Thanks.
