Re: OT-Shopping Cart Software

Remote Assistance Invitation issue
Does any one know of a way to tweak Remote Assistance Invitations? Here's the scoop, have a remote worker with a company notebook. This notebook has multiple network interfaces. As an example the remote invitation looks like this after cracking it open in notepad RCTICKET=65538,1,72.225.x.x:5068;192.168.x.x:3389;10.3.x.x:3389;192.168.x.x:3389;192.168.x.x:3389;notebookx.corp.net:3389, Public IPVMWare IP VPN IPVMWare IP VMWare IP FQDN The remote worker connects to the companies VPN, then sends out the remote invite. Some workstations will connect with the remote invite just fine across the VPN. Other workstations will first try to connect to the Public IP, after timing out it tries to connect to the VMWare IP. After timing out a second time the remote invite session fails. Directly editing the remote invite cause corruption. As a work around I have manually added a static route on the workstation to point request to the public IP of the remote invitation to the VPN tunnel. This works with varying degrees of success. My googlefu is failing and I have been unable to find a way gain more control over how the remote invite is created (ideally specifying the order of the IP address's listed), or on the other end which IP address the remote assistance connection should try to connect to.

Microsoft enterprise licensing question
Greetings to all... I work at an educational institution that is on Novell and is examining the licensing costs and options and comparing these costs with making the switch to Microsoft. I'd prefer not to go to the lengths of contacting our reseller at this time, or opening up a can of worms that we are indeed planning to make the move. I'm curious however about the ballpark price for a Microsoft Campus Agreement...we have about 6000 combined faculty and students, so I assume that would be the number to work with. I'm also curious about what all a Campus Agreement includes. I thought maybe some of you out there had dealt with this before and could give me some feedback.

Re: Microsoft enterprise licensing question
I am doing that exactly right now. For dollars only, I compared quotes for Novell products to Microsoft quotes from our standard vendor(s). You may wish to include costs for speciality servers (Zen/SCCM), as well as hours for migration and migration tools. I don't know if Microsoft has the Novell equivalent of a VLA or MLA, but you could purchase your licenses with software assurance. matt [EMAIL PROTECTED] 5/7/2008 10:19 AM Greetings to all...

Help Desk/Trouble Ticket software
We are looking for new helpdesk/trouble ticket software. We'd like to be able to plugin to MS SQL, auto create/update tickets via email submission and also via web interface. Allowing users to view the status of a ticket would be a plus as well. It doesn't need to have all the bells and whistles, but customizable would be nice. I've looked at a few but haven't really been too impressed so I'm turning to the collective experience of the group. Any recommendations and feedback are greatly appreciated.

If you're more like me, and want a more customizable/open source solution, I use Bugzilla. The new versions include the ability to open/modify/close requests via email, and it's very customizable.

Re: Help Desk/Trouble Ticket software
I would love a help desk software that is based on email. Don't get me wrong I want the database backend to keep track of everything but why do I have to leave email to look at a ticket then respond to it within the ticketing web/client interface. Can I just get the ticket via email and reply to it via email and have the ticketing system keep track of it. Say every email back and forth between me and the customer is CCed to the ticketing system.

RE: Help Desk/Trouble Ticket software
Helpstar does exactly that. It processes the mail coming to the helstar address and the parses the ticket # out of the subject, and adds the body of the text to the ticket in the database. So you can pretty much immediately see it in the web interface, etc... all you have to do is reply to the ticket update. I think you have to start the ticket at the web interface though, but any updates can be done via email. cb -Original Message- From: Tigran K [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, May 07, 2008 11:59 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Re: Help Desk/Trouble Ticket software I would love a help desk software that is based on email.

RE: Who printed this?
Nope, what you describe is exactly what we have and do. Printers are either on a jet direct box or their own NIC..once installed they are available to everyone that logs in. Reconsider the account thing, it is not that big a deal. Get the list from your student information system, use their student ID's for passwords and script create them. OU's for School and year, roll them up each summer and delete the 12th grade. Redirect my documents to a shared server folder and it will automatically created the folder for them http://support.microsoft.com/kb/274443 We have 8000 students, I spend 2 or 3 days tops each summer bumping and rolling accounts for students. And last, delegate account control to the Media Specs in each building and teach them how to reset passwords and create accounts... -Original Message- From: John Hornbuckle [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, May 07, 2008 2:01 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: Who printed this?

Vista administrators?
Greetings! This is NOT as stupid a question as it appears to be... In Vista Business, to what local group must one be added to be a local administrator? (Hint - Administrators does not seem to be the correct answer!) We got a new laptop w/Vista Business on it. The principle user has been made an administrator so that specifice HR apps can be installed by/for our HR manager. Problem is, one tries to connect to a network share, change some network configurations, etc, and they get a pop-up message saying that the action is denied - it requires administrator rights. No UAC, no are you really wanting to do this, no give the administrator password, no nothhing. This person, a member of the Administrators group, can do little as those actions require one to be an administrator.

Administrators is the correct group. If the user logs in with domain credentials, you put the domain user ID in the local Administrators group, same as XP.

RE: Voice Mail to Email
Vonage will do that. I don't think they have long term contracts. - Andy O. From: Scott Reed [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, May 07, 2008 3:22 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Voice Mail to Email I am looking for a recommendation for a service that can take a voice mail message, convert it to wav (or other audio) and email the wav to a specific email address. Our current phone system does not offer this functionality. I believe that our phone system will be upgraded in a few months, so I need a service that is free or with no long term contract. To try and clarify what I am looking for, here is how I imagine the process. End user with a problem calls the help phone number. End user leaves voice mail. Voice mail converted to audio file. Audio file emailed to group email address. Support techs in group email address forward/cc each other to ensure request is resolved. Thanks in advance for suggestions.

Can I just get the ticket via email and reply to it via email and have the ticketing system keep track of it. Say every email back and forth between me and the customer is CCed to the ticketing system.

RE: Outgoing SQL Express
What is the CRM VM configured with for RAM? If SQL is taking up 1.2 to 1.5GB of RAM, it wont give that back to the OS unless it's under some pretty extreme pressure, even if SQL itself doesnt need it. It could be that your CRM app needs to use RAM outside of SQL and doesnt have enough depending on how much RAM the VM itself has available to it and also your min/max memory settings in SQL. Just a thought. - Andy O. From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, May 06, 2008 9:03 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: Outgoing SQL Express Sorry, over the past 3 months the usage on this application has grown significantly. Its their CRM app. The SQL server always is pegging 1.2 to 1.5 Gb of memory. Since its physically limited to 1GB of buffered memory I am thinking that perhaps its bottle necking there. The DB is sitting on a ISCSI Netapp box that is basically just a file server, for a 10 office network running Exchange and SQL. There are 12 drives in the array and the monitors on it are not showing any IO bottlenecks. The servers are sitting on a ESX box running W2k3 Sp2 Image. Nothing else is really slow at all, just the CRM app and only when are all actively working in it. 10 users.. I am looking for some type of numbers of reporting that can justify purchasing SQL 2005 Std and possible some more Ram for ESX to throw another VM up. Does that help?? Thanks Greg From: Michael B.
