  1. We have several XP computers that I need to update to XP Sp2. I was wondering how could I make an automated update for SP2 with all the options selected the way I need. It is ok if I have to visit every computer and just run a setup, I just don't want to answer all the questions and then customize pop up blocker, fire wall... etc. Should I make an MSI package or is there a better way? Thanks

    Wireless network

    You need a bridge. You current router and/or switch don't understand wirerless signals. So you have to buy a new switch or bridge.

    Finding user name

    How can I get user name from the variables in 2000? Like is I want to find a cd-rom drive I can use %CDROM%, so what is the one for the user name? Is there a list for all variables available in 2000? Thanks
  4. Win2k pro has 10 concurrent licensing limitations. Does this apply to the anonymous FTP connections? I'm, just wondering if I have more than 10 anonymous users trying to log-in to the ftp server will it reject the connection after 10 users get on or the licensing only applies to actual user accounts, not FTP?
  5. ntswitch is not a microsoft lisenced product and is considered ny MS to be illigal. You probably don't need more that 10 connections at home anyway.
  6. Slightly different method is start /w "c:\winnt\...\program1.exe" start "c:\winnt\...\program2.exe" This will make is wait after one program wait before another one.

    Auto Installing MS Patches

    Any tips on the setup? It just ain't working Here is the sample of my reg file. Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate\Au] "NoAutoUpdate"=dword:00000000 "AUOptions"=dword:00000002 "ScheduledInstallDay"=dword:00000000 "ScheduledInstallTime"=dword:0000000E "UseWUServer"=dword:00000001 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate] "WUServer"="http://xxx.xxx.129.201"'>http://xxx.xxx.129.201" "WUStatusServer"="http://xxx.xxx.129.201" The above setup only works for users with Admin rights But even than, if I change "AUOptions"=dword:00000002 to 3 or 4 it just stops working all together.

    Auto Installing MS Patches

    Anybody actually has this setup on their network? I tried the setup, but so far I only got it to work with option 2, which is to notify about the upgrades, and only for users with Admin rights
  9. What would be the best way to auto install all the current MS security updates on the network if we don't have AD (Novell 5.1). Most clients are 2000, but still a few are 95/98, I suppose we can just ignore those for now. All users have Power User rights to their local computers. There is one Win2k server available but it is stand alone with no AD setup.

    Kodak DC260/Win2k/USB

    I gave up and just bought USB memory adapter card (Flash reader). It also doesn't drain the batteries when transferring pictures. Only $20.

    Notes v5.x Compatibility with WinXP Pro?

    Notes rulz man! Anyhow, dunno about 5.06a but 5.0.8 seems to work very nice. Also 5.0.9a works well. 5.0.10 kinda sucks. Go to lotus site and get the updates, they are free anyway.

    Does ECS K75SA support Duron 1.2 GHZ

    Latest bios has support listed for 1.3g. So you might wanna flash the bios 1st. I installed 1.1 yesteday and it worked like a charm.
