Re: LoJack
IIRC, you can ask Dell and pay a nominal fee for Dell to futz with BIOS settings, but due diligence to ensure that it is Activated almost negates the effort, since it takes as much time to check that it is activated (unless you can see that via pre-installed software) during a workstation setup and config.

Re: Manage JAVA updates
I've always found it in c:\users\username\AppData\LocalLow\Sun\Java\jrever. Where username is the user which ran the installer. I don't run with admin rights, so when prompted I enter credentials for workstation administrator. It then puts the msi file under that account's folder in c:\users, not in my day-to-day account. You should be able to do a search for the msi from an elevated command prompt, from the root of the system drive or even the users folder: dir jre*.msi /s found the file.

Re: virtualization question
This doesn't strike me as a problem virtualization can solve, as stated. As recommended, this is more of a Citrix or Terminal services issue and whether you can do what you want is going to be governed by whether or not the POS is capable of running concurrently in different sessions. This really should not be an issue, but you should be sure that the POS software can do it in a Citrix or Terminal services environment.

Re: Replacement for SteadyState
Universities are a much different beast than primary and secondary schools. 1) Logging out was part of the Acceptable Use Policy, meaning it is the student's responsibility to log out. 2) Teachers were taught to double check that students logged out. 3) Teachers in labs, put it on their syllabus, and those who used labs regularly but were not actually in a lab, did so, as well, to remind students that not logging off could result in a loss of work. 4) Make sure that you give teachers some mechanism for resetting student passwords to some default password, and unlocking the account. This became a huge problem in the school I worked at previously. I had to roll my own solution at the time. Having a solution for this in place before you switch over will make life so much easier. 5) Disable locking of the computer for student accounts.

Re: excluding WDS from System State backup

In the SBS world where we typically work we tend to put WSUS and other 'stuff' on their own drives for that kind of reason.

If you try to treat it as anything *other* than a system-wide thing, you get those surprises. The fact that people fall into the trap of treating Windows DNS as not system-wide, doesn't mean it's not actually system-wide. If DNS *wasn't* system-wide, having different resolvers configured on different network adapters might be able to work -- you'd be able to maintain different, disjoint namespaces simultaneously. But it doesn't work that way, and that's the problem. Bad car analogy time: My car has one steering wheel. More than one person can grab the wheel and try to steer at once. It won't end well, because while you can provide multiple inputs, steering is a car-wide thing. (As an aside: This isn't a Windows-specific problem, either.

I realize the order in which full-service resolvers are tried is driven by network adapter priority. Assuming my understanding is correct: If it's all one namespace, I think it's best to consider it a system-wide thing. DNS *is* the namespace, as far as most things are concerned.

It's time for a refresh. I've only done a few minor updates, as things haven't really changed much. However, I'd be pleased if share with me any thoughts you have on what I've written. The first thing to remember is that security (computer or otherwise) is not an end state. It's a process, and a mind set. Why do security professionals say that? For three related reasons: *o- The world changes* Trite, perhaps, but it's fundamental. For the computing world, this means new applications, new versions of applications, new versions of operating systems, patches to current operating systems and applications, etc. It also means new criminals and new ways of crime - they are tricksy beasts. *o- All software has bugs* Lots of them. If (when!) encountered, many of those bugs will cause your computer to behave in ways that are much less safe than you would hope or expect. *o- The computing world has more risks than the physical world* There are hostile actors in the computing world trying to take advantage of the above, which means that what might have been relatively safe earlier is unlikely to be so in short order. What you *MUST* understand is that, for these people, infecting your computer is a business. They make money from it, in several different ways. The specifics of the business are beyond the scope of this discussion, but understanding that should lead you to understand that you and your computer are a target, no matter how insignificant or obscure you think you or your computer might be. And, they can be anywhere in the world - Bulgaria, China and North Dakota are as close and your next door neighbor. *But, all is not lost, nor insuperable.* Understanding the above, and following a few pieces of advice, will keep you out of most trouble and will improve your odds of safe computing over the longer term. Understand that the situation in the computing world is fluid and that the enemy is mobile, agile and hostile, and you're in better shape that would otherwise be the case. So, the advice, in rough order: *o- Mobile devices are still more dangerous than traditional computers such as laptops and desktops* They, and the software on them, are still not mature, and methods for using and managing them safely are not well developed. In particular, it's very difficult to achieve separation of privileges between administrative functions and normal user functions, because there aren't any easy ways to use more than one account. What that means, and why this is important will become a bit more clear if you read this whole message. Right now I'll just caution you that mobile devices are under intense scrutiny by computer criminals for any advantage, and are the fastest rising targets for malicious activity. Be careful with them. Don't a) install apps without understanding what they do and what privileges they require, b) open random text messages - especially you shouldn't follow links in text message to web sites, or c) perform any really sensitive tasks on them - by this I mostly mean doing financial tasks or keeping financial data on the device without encrypting it. Do keep your eyes peeled for good security software and for unexpected or suspicious behavior on your mobile device. *o- Keep your machine patched* For your computer's operating system (Windows, Mac, Linux or other) and for every program that you commonly use on your machine, make sure that at least once a month you visit the vendor's web site and keep current with the latest security updates. This includes your operating system (Windows, Mac, Linux, whatever), and your application software - not only the major pieces like MS Office or OpenOffice, and your web browser, but also the various Adobe

Thanks for your input Art. I must have been thinking of SBS2011 Standard when I wrote about not using newer Exchange... was kinda braindead yesterday. You would think Essentials was installed to replace a DC... but it was just added to the mess. While it's a great idea to virtualize those old servers, it's pretty pointless in this case. They shouldn't be there in the first place. There were a total of 6 DCs in the 8 servers for about 23 users, Exchange installed on 3 boxes, only really running on the one VM though. Basically anything they are doing can be combined on one server. Their whole system is pretty backwards right now. I'm thinking SBS 2011 Standard with appropriate user CALs is still the right choice for them. The box it would be installed on is a Dell Poweredge R710, 2x 6-core Xeon w/ HT, 32GB RAM, 6x 2TB/7.2k in RAID5. SO it definitely has the horsepower and capacity they need. All of the other servers are running Win2K/Win2K3 on effectively junk hardware... OLD Compaq ML530 Pentium III Xeon (160lbs.), Pentium Dual-Core whitebox, etc. There is one older-gen Intel whitebox server that could be used for a swing migration. Although I'm still up in the air about which path to take. I could do a swing to that other box, although I have never done one before, and at the same time, I'm inclined to start fresh and visit every workstation to disjoin/rejoin to make sure everything is configured properly. I will check on the public folders. Exporting their mail to PST will be interesting too, as some of the users have mailboxes that are 20-25GB in size. Would you foresee any issues in exporting mailboxes of that size? Thanks again for your input!! James What a mess. SBS 2011 Essentials will not support Exchange. That's why he has it installed on another box. It looks like Essentials was installed to replace an old DC and try to update the network. But that's in the past now. I would plan to install a new version of SBS 2011 Premium based on the number of servers. You get the rights for 2 physical boxes (and SQL) and can virtualize some of the other servers on the second box. What are the specs for the latest box you plan on installing SBS 2011 Standard on? What are the other 7 servers doing and can they be combined and virtualized? You will need SBS 2011 Standard and the appropriate number of CALs. None of the CALs they have now are valid for SBS 2011. David is right in that you can do a swing migration. You will need another server for this. Will one of the others work temporarily? Is the rest of the network, AD, users, etc. OK or do they look iffy also? If so I would be inclined to start from scratch and build it so you know exactly what you have. I know it's a pain but you could export the PST files. That should cover most of their Exchange data. Unless they are using Public Folders. If the client is growing, this might be a good time to start over with a good base and review existing policies and build it to match the client's needs and expectations.

Are those calls documented? And what was the nature of the call? After the initial transition, this will actually make admin's lives easier, since they have a more controlled environment to work in.

Prior to 3 weeks ago, everything was fast as can be. Quickbooks support hasn't been too helpful -- they keep pointing at the server itself, but Task Manager and Resource Monitor don't show any areas of bottlenecking (CPU, memory, disk, etc.). Users also say it doesn't matter if only ONE person is in the office, and using Quickbooks, they still get the slowness problems... So it's not load related either.
