I have an odd problem with USB wireless on a Dell Dimension desktop. I've had the problem with two different adapters (Linksys and Netgear). I find that when I also have a USB MP3 player or phone attached, network connectivity stops. The wireless connection shows as connected still, but I can no...

I wasn't sure whether to put this in the Windows or Exchange forum, so I started here. I need to add external contacts to a custom address list, which I can do fine. More importantly I need these contacts to only be accessible to certain users. It's the latter I'm having problems with. I am...

Hi, I've created a new OU underneath the domain root. I will store contacts in here that I only want certain users to access. I have therefore removed the Authenticated Users - Read ACE from the OU's ACL. However, when I create/import new contacts into the OU, the contact receives the...

Hi, Could I create multiple SSIDs, then connect clients to particular VLANs depending which SSID they're connected to? I'm hoping yes, but am a bit confused by the literature. thanks

Hi, BackupExec 10.1D I had a job hang with cancel pending. I tried restarting the services. Then I tried deleting all the jobs that were created from my policy/selection list. It seems to have deleted some, but left others. It seems to have removed the link between the jobs and the policies...

Hi, I have the following in my logon script: Set WshShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell") strDesktopPath = WshShell.SpecialFolders("Desktop") Set objShortcutLnk = WshShell.CreateShortcut(strDesktopPath & "\Shortcutname.lnk") objShortcutLnk.TargetPath =chr(34)&"c:\program files\internet...

Hi, We'e just installed a new Exchange server and need to migrate mailboxes from a legacy Exchange server. Accounts have not been migrated using ADMT, so I guess the Exchange Migration Wizard is out. Ideally I'd like to manually match which accounts are transfered from/to, as there are only...

Hi, I'm moving from NT Backup to Backup Exec. My backup reigime on NTBackup is Mon-Thur daily differential, Friday Weekly Full. Mon-Thur are overwritten every week, I have 5 Friday tapes, so these are overwritten once a month. Obviously there are only a few 5th Fridays each month, therefore...

Hi, I'm fairly new to Backup Exec and am setting up a schedule. I am planning on setting up jobs that will backup multiple remote servers. If I choose to run the pre/post commands on all servers, are these commands executed when the partiuclar remote server is backed up, or will all remote...

Hi, I have a content database served over two websites, one for internal with integrated auth and one for external access with basic auth over ssl (to overcome issues associated with using basic and integrated auth on the same site). Each site has it's own application pool (to allow the recycle...

Hi, I'm trying to setup BackupExec 10.1 with a Quantum Superloader 3 SDLT 600. The media server is a new Win2k3 server with an Adaptec 29160 card dedicated for the autoloader. The SCSI bus is terminated. I installed as per the instructions, but had problems with communication between BE and the...

Hi, When I purchase an SQL or Exchange agent license, does that entitle me to backup all SQL or Exchange databases using the agent on multiple servers, or do I need to purchase an agent per server? Thanks Mike

Hi, I will soon be implementing a new tape backup solution with BackupExec and autoloader to replace the current NTbackup and tape drives in server solution. I'm looking to setup Continuous Protection Server to complement this: to enable files to be easily restored which have been...

I'd like to implement an IPSec policy to help protect traffic between clients and the domain controller, and other servers. I've read that MS don't support client>DC with IPsec? Is this still the case? I have Win2kSP4 DCs and XPSP2 clients. I understand that I'd need to permit ports for...

Hi, I want to host a WSS site over SSL. My ISP will only enable port 443 on the firewall. Will external clients be able to view the site with that alone? Or do I also need a TCP port opened? Cheers

Hi, I'd like to set up several mailing lists on an exchange server which external users can un/subscribe to either by sending an e-mail to a certain address, or by completing a web form. Is Exchange capable of this? If not, is there an afforable add-on which will enable Exchange to do it? Cheers

I have a Win2K SP4 DC, hosting FSMO, DHCP, DNS et al. Every few days the server will freeze. By this I mean, IIS will stop delivering pages, clients sometimes experience problems accessing shares hosted on the server, drives do not appear in My Computer, and DNS stops servicing requests...

Hi, I'm currently investigating a cost-effective alternative backup solution, which will incorporate disk. I'd like to backup my Windows servers to disk, and to then have the data moved to tape. I'm looking to use a non-Windows NAS like the Buffalo Terastation. I can backup to the NAS fine...

Hi, I'm getting a STOP UNMOUNTABLE_BOOT_VOLUME error on startup. MS support and various forums imply that it's a corruption which can usually be fixed with chkdsk. However, I can't get into the Recovery Console to try it. On trying to launch recovery console I get a STOP 24 error in relation to...

Hi, I've been doing Normal backups daily using the command line below. But the amount of data to be backed up now exceeds the tape capacity and spans over 2 tapes. To workaround this, I want to perform a weekly Normal backup then Differential backups on all other days. However, NTBackup doesn't...
