I would like to rollout MSE over a network, mange it and update it all remotely. I am sick of having to visit each and every client.
jake's questions
I have several Windows XP machines on the same network as a Sun Solaris 10 server. I would like the XP machines to synchronise their clocks with the time on the Sun server. I have no internet connection on this network I was wondering how I should go about setting this up.
I have an Java enterprise app that only prints to LPT1. The problem is, the only printers available in my company are USB printers. The developers and support staff (InfoSys) for the app all say they require a DOS based printer which I took to mean LPT because USB has a BIOS setting to enable legacy support which I enabled.
I have tested connecting an LPT printer to the PC, and the app works and prints perfectly. What I would now like to do is use a USB printer connected directly to this PC. I have tried sharing the printer and using the command
net use lpt1 \\pcip\printername /persistent:yes
then installing the printer detected on the LPT port. While this works for a printer on the netowrk, it doesn't seem to work with a local printer. I would like to deploy this for 10 plus users each with thier own printer.
I am trying to get work group users to share their "group calendars" on IIS7 using WebDAV. So far, I have:
- Users setup on Windows XP and Outlook 2007 with profiles on the Windows 2003 server
- The Windows 2003 server running IIS7 with WebDAV enabled and a web directory calendar setup.
- The group calendar of one user has been shared and invitations sent out to all the some users
- Invited users can see the shared calendar
My problems are;
- Other users cannot edit this shared calendar
- I would like this calendar to be editable for all users
- Can some one get access to this calendar without an invite?
I had setup in Active Directory but the company saw fit to downgrade to workgroups. Am I doing this wrong?
