The cost is $250 for the plus (I think). You will truly benefit by having it. That way if you want to *test* OneNote, you can. Also how does your company purchase it's Office licenses? YOU don't have to share that info, but you could update that to include OneNote. Another option would be to install a PDF writer on your system (there are free ones). Write out you notes with Word, WordPad or notepad then print to the PDF. Not as slick as OneNote, but it does the same thing. I'll often send solutions that I see here to my notebook for later review. The one thing I teach my IT classes is that you cannot know everything, but if you can find the answers you can look like you do. Rick Gasper Manager, Network Services King's College 133 N.

I wondered what OneNote was for. :D Now I know. I don't have it on my system, but I know some of the systems with the more expensive versions of Office have it. -----Original Message----- From: Gasper, Rick [mailto:rickgas...@kings.edu] Sent: Tuesday, August 02, 2011 9:39 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: Error message in logs Great suggestion. I use MS OneNote to do just that. Every time I run across an issue that I have not seen, I try to put it into an OneNote notebook. That way I can search. There is no effort learning how to use it, because you can print directly to OneNote. -----Original Message----- From: John Aldrich [mailto:jaldr...@blueridgecarpet.com] Sent: Monday, August 01, 2011 5:10 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: Error message in logs For the record, I found the error with a little more searching. It turns out that I appear to have had a corrupted Local GPO Database, and simply renaming the old one and creating a new one fixed it. Thanks.

Are you familiar with the expressions that "assumptions make an ass out of you and me?" ( ass / u / me ) This is an expression that Systems Administrators live by. Learn it, live it, love it. Its bad ju-ju to come to a support list with unverified assumptions. Do your due diligence before posting questions and answers that aren't rooted in your own facts. -- Espi On Mon, Aug 1, 2011 at 5:43 AM, John Aldrich <jaldr...@blueridgecarpet.com> wrote: I concur with that diagnosis. But that's the strange part. AFAIK there *are* no GPOs. At least none that I have created and installed. I suppose one of the supporting vendors could have done so. Guess I'll have to fire up GPEDIT and see what the heck is going on.

What sort of GPOs do you have applied to this server? On 1 August 2011 13:32, John Aldrich <jaldr...@blueridgecarpet.com> wrote: I'm getting an error message in my log files on Server 2003. The log entry is as follows: Security policies were propagated with warning. 0xb : An attempt was made to load a program with an incorrect format. The error message says to search Microsoft for "troubleshooing 1202 events." Well, apparently my search is f-ed up right now, because I can't FIND anything on Microsoft's websites about this error! The closest I can come is a KB article from Windows 2000 Server which includes commands that don't work in Windows 2003 (registry editing and then issuing a "secpol /enforce..." command, which is invalid in Windows 2003.) When I look at the security log file, I see the following error: "Saturday, July 30, 2011 9:23:58 AM Error 11: An attempt was made to load a program with an incorrect format. Error creating database. ----Configuration engine was initialized with one or more errors.----" Anyone know what the hell is going on here and how do I fix it? I've *tried* Googling, and that's not producing many results. Matter of fact, Google is how I found the Windows 2003 issue. It seems oddly coincidental that similar errors occur on whichever of my servers has Vipre Enterprise Server at the moment. Could be coincidence, but could be related, in my mind. I will add this information to the ticket I have open with Sunbelt and see if they have any suggestions. -- Thanks, John Aldrich Blueridge Industries IT Manager ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~ --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com with the body: unsubscribe ntsysadmin ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~ --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com with the body: unsubscribe ntsysadmin
