Hi Can you tell me the function of the ! in the drive mapping statement please? net use p: "\\htoa2012file\!Shares\Barb" I have Windows 7 clients connecting to 2012 file shares without any issue but I map the drives through group policy so wondering what the function of the ! is? Bob Fast...

Hi guitarzan thanks for that I'll look into producing that output to check things out. PHV that worked a charm - thanks very much for the suggestion. As I pointed out I'm a novice scripter I tend to use batch files constructed through spreadsheets mainly which although effective are fairly...

Hi guitarzan Thnaks for getting back to me. I tried your varaiation as below If (CBool(ObjGroupDict.Exists("CN=Students")) AND ((ObjGroupDict.Exists("CN<>Year 7 Students")) OR (ObjGroupDict.Exists("CN<>Year 8 Students"))))= True Then The student is a member of the students group (as all...

Hi I've managed to fix this by changing the select statement to If (CBool(ObjGroupDict.Exists("CN=Year 9 Students")) OR (ObjGroupDict.Exists("CN=Year 10 Students")) OR (ObjGroupDict.Exists("CN=Year 11 Students")) OR (ObjGroupDict.Exists("CN=Year 12 Students")) OR (ObjGroupDict.Exists("CN=Year...

Hi I have inherited a vbscript in my establishment that checks whether a user is in a security group and creates their user area and applies a range of permissions. I've recently had to move 600 users to a new server and want to alter the script to include appropriate references to this new...

Hi Not to worry I will pursue the scripting option and keep researching this in the background. Thanks Bob Fast, Cheap and Good pick two because if it's fast and cheap it won't be good, if it's cheap and good it won't be fast and if it's fast and good it won't be cheap

Hi I have a script which runs from within the context menu in AD. By that I mean that when a user is created this script goes off and sets a number of properties in their AD entry including home area, profile location etc. To initiate the scrip is a manual process i.e. right click on the user...

Without a topology diagram it's difficult to envisage how the network is set up but assuming that subnets #1, #2 and #3 each connect to an interface on one router with an IP address in each subnet. Subnet #4 connects to this new Linksys router, which in turn connects to the original router. You...

Hi We have much the same issue in my establishment. I get around it by disbaling the Initial Novell Login (Advanced Login Tab on the Netware Client Properties) and allow the users to authenticate to the W2K domain first. A shortcut to Novell login on the desktops then allows them to access...

Hi Brent Will try this when I get back to the office tomorrow. Thanks Bob

Hi In an attempt to get NDPS printing loaded, in an attempt to get away from well documented queue based hassles, I loaded NDPS Manager which unfortunately bombed out with various errors. Through Novell's website found the problem and followed the fix in TID 100064649. Have now deleted the...

I'll look to install NDPS in a month's time once I've SP'd the server to latest Netware Service Pack. Unfortunately I have to suffer queue based printing for a little while longer yet. Managed yesterday to get everything back all printer's and queues assigned, however, some printers are...

Can see the devices under Web Jet Admin. I have one print server running 11 queues assigned to 11 printer objects (all nonNDPS). Can't see a way in Jet Admin to assign those printers to their respective queues without creating an individual print server per queue. Any wise heads out there...

Suddenly Web Jet Admin is working - time to strike whilst the iron is hot. Bob

I have a similiar problem - having recently taken over as Network Manager have discovered printers are set up using a Print Server, queues and Jet Admin rather than NDPS. Last week printing decided to fall over spectacularly (I have over 12 queue based printers) and only half of them are back...

Found the answer myself in KB151307 on Microsoft support site. Sorry to waste anyone's time Bob

Hi Apologies if this is a dumb question and has already been answered elsewhere but do Windows 2000 Professional and Windows XP Professional include a Client Access Licence for a Windows 2000 Server? I'll continue looking on Microsoft but any answers gratefully received. Thanks Bob

What you could do is write a batch file to do the copy (or xcopy) of the shares and follow that up with NET SHARE to recreate the shares. It would depend on how many shares you are actually copying across. If there are a substantial amount then writing the batch file becomes a bit of a pain -...

With XP and 2000 clients I have tended to build the client using only one profile, usually the domain administrator. I have installed and customised the applications whilst on the client as this user and then copied the profile to the default user's profile. This prevents products like MS...

In terms of security management CIA stands for Confidentiality Integrity Availability Hope this helps Bob
