You have to configure the snmp service to allow other computer to acces his information. Allowing a computer and setting a community can help.

Ntbackup natively in XP can do all what you need. You can create a selection and save it for further usage. It can save open files. If you need something more professional, you can buy Symantec Backup Exec and an advanced open file license. The trial version 10d is fully functionnal for at least 30 days.

For the event id 51, it may be a problem with the driver for the controler or the controler itself. As LLXX said backup your data and if it still and don't become something more serious ignore it.

Perhaps you just need to enable for the network card in device manager "Allow this device to bring the computer out of standby" and disable "allow windows to shutdown this device to save power".

The credentials need to fully qualified sometimes when you log on to a remote share. i.e: If you want to have acces to the share "share1" on the computer "computer1" with the user "user1", you can try from a dos box to type: net use * \\computer1\share1 /u:computer1\user1 the password of user1 will be prompted. Be also sure that the DNS Entry for computer is really the resolving to the right ip adress. Computers with several network cards can end up to have two DNS Entries if configured to auto-register.

Why not simply do a batch: net localgroup administrators "fabrikam\ICT-Desktop Support" /add

Another method would be installing Windows from a bartpe/winpe made from XPSP2 as when you boot the cd drive is always X:.

If your files have the same number of characters, it should work. File01,file02... file10. You have to add 0 when needed. If you can't rename the files, you'll have to make a script to do it.

You can use the free dumpsec from systemtools. It was made to do this.

You should try dumpsec from systemtools (free). It can export to csv the file structure, groups, ntfs rights. Then you 'd need to create a batch using cacls or xcacls and net localgroup to create and add the new groups to the files structureand remove the old groups. To finish, you'll just need to remove the old groups.

Each time your computer detect a new interface, it increment the number. So it detected 4 interfaces, it's perhaps you removed some without deleting them before or you changed the pci slot or simply that the OS detected four time the same interface in the same emplacement but with other resources. Sometimes services packs might also do this.

If there is free space or another drive you obviously can extend the volume using the free space. I thought acronis disk director server could handle this tasks. Did you try to do it online or offline with the boot cd ? It should only work offline as it can not resize the boot partition online. If those doesn't work you'd have either to reinstall (because MS say you can go back to basic disk to when the bootable partition is dynamic) or to install new applications to the other drive.

If i remember correctly there is in the properties of a distribution group a tab which should help you. Here is the link from MS: http://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechn...e.mspx?mfr=true

Registry entries for fonts are stored there: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Fonts All you need to do is add the font on a real XP or 2K3 look for the entry added and then copy the font to the i386\fonts of your winpe and add the corresponding reg entry to the sofware hive of your winpe (i386\system32\config\software).

I 'm doing this via the hosts file on each computer. This would do the same thing and you get a better flexibility as you can allow or disallow any website on any computer without disallowing it for others.

Try to also modify the security on the share. Also, when mapping the network share, do it via this command from a dos box: net use * \\remote_computer\remote_share /u:remote_computer\remote_user remote_user_password where: - remote_computer is the computername of the computer you're trying to connect to - remote_share is the name of the share on the remote computer - remote_user is the user your created with the rights on the share - remote_user_password is the password of this user This should connect the first free drive letter to the share. If not please post the error you get in the dos box.

If you're using DNS resolution, then the computers you're trying to connect must be added to the dns or to your host (c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts). Otherwise, it means you're using netbios resolution, then you have three choice: - open the firewall and let the computer browser learn the names of the other computer in your subnet. - add the name of the computers to the lmhosts (c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\lmhosts). - connect to a wins which can resolve the computer names: it can if the other computers are configured to use it, or if you added manually the addresses.

Just restrict the security on this folder via the security tab when you do properties on the folder. You need to create before a local user which will have acces to this folder if there isn't one already. Then on the security tabs remove everyone, users, guests and power users and add the newly user and of course your user if you're not member of the administrators group.

And if you need printing, you can stop it before gaming with this: net stop spooler and start it after: net start spooler Make two batch, one to stop it and one to start it. This should be the best way.

3d Home architect isn't free but will do the job.

A lot of external enclosure seems to have this problem. I also had the same problem and i simply gave up on making this enclosure works with hard drives >120Gb.

Here is the bootcd or boot floppy based on linux to reset the admin password. You just need to follow the instructions.

Systemrescuecd has most open source tools for partition manipulations. It works well.

Basicaly you only need a 2000 with the service then export 2 registry entries: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\seclogon and all its subkeys and: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Enum\Root\LEGACY_SECLOGON and all its subkeys. adding seclogon.dll to system32 should be all you need.

The easiest way would be the use of Hyena or Dameware utilities. Both of them can do this.
