RE: Single Live Comm Server 2005 upgrade to OCS 2007

2010-05-21 Thread Brian Desmond

I think you should be ok with the simple plan. You want OCS 2007 R2 not 
straight OCS 2007.

All the deployment documentation involves much more complicated Live 
Communication Server setups with multiple directors, etc.

I have a single Live Communication Server 2005 server which is used 99.9% for 
IM only.  We need to move to Office Communication Server 2007.  Currently I 
don't need more than a single server as the main use will remain just IM, but 
we will add other services soon.

Has someone performed a simple upgrade like this?  Is it just as simple as 
installing OCS 2007 and moving the users?  Or do I need to do a more 
complicated install with multiple OCS 2007 servers with different roles?

RE: enforcing preferred DC

2010-05-21 Thread Brian Desmond

Yep. WMI filter info is stored in AD and/or Sysvol - the DC has nothing to do 
with it beyond storing the data.

Your Windows 2000 clients won't be able to read the WMI filters no matter what 
DC they authenticate to. The Vista clients should be fine regardless of which 
DC authenticates them - WMI filters are not a new Windows 2008 function. If the 
Vista clients aren't getting policies when they authenticate to Windows 2003 
DCs, check replication.

Hello:

We have recently upgraded Windows 2003 to Windows 2008 DCs and it seems that 
most workstations (mostly vista with few W2k) are indvertantly connecting to 
legasy Win2k3 DCs and it seems that the some of the GPOs with WMI filters are 
not working. 

Where are the options in the GPO, where I can mentioned i.e. DC1, DC2, DC3 and 
DC4 only. 

Thank you

RE: Non AD integrated DNS

2010-05-21 Thread Brian Desmond

I'm unclear what you hope to gain by doing this? Is DNS placing a measurable 
load on the DC? How big is the zone?

Subject: Non AD integrated DNS


In one of the projects the ADDC (win2k3) is heavily used and to buy the time, 
thinking to offload the DNS to standalone member server. This new server than 
hold DHCP/WINS and DNS offloading exclusive authentications to DC. 

Is there any disadvantage of running standalone DNS (NON AD integrated); apart 
from security. 

Thanks in advance,

Re: Idle question?

2010-05-21 Thread tony patton

+1000 on the stupidly long named and repeated folder naming conventions.

The fun starts when they copy a file from a short(-ish) path into a longer 
one and wonder then why they can't open it again.

Does anyone have experience with Win7 and really long file/path

The Win32 API  doesn't support longer than that, and I was wondering
if it was fixed with Win7.

If the problem is fixed for Win7, will I have to move my file server
to Win2k8 to take advantage of the increased length?

RE: Spelling error on license?

2010-05-21 Thread Alan Davies

If you're on good terms with the vendor, contact them about this.  They
may well not know they've potentially been ripped off.  Otherwise,
follow the link another poster gave you and report it to MS.  They can
easily ascertain the legitimacy of the software for you.

Failing to act on this puts your business at risk in many ways.  Great
catch though, not many go to that trouble!

Curious.  Just got a great deal on a copy of Server 2008, almost too
good to be true.  Holograms on disc are fine, the license has the
hologram thread passing thru the paper, irregular shaped holes, all
looks fine.  But reading the Client Access License paper, at the very
bottom, there's an obvious spelling error.

If anyone's curious, and has a 5 user CAL sheet that came with a copy of
2008, might check it out.  I find it strange MS would not have proofread
this.
