Cyrus,
Are there any specific error messages appearing on the SQL Server ?
Perhaps using a packetsniffer to have a look at the network traffic might
also give some insight into why the connection times out.
Has anything recently changed in the network/server/database, no matter how
insignificant

It's quite Strange
I got this email with a from as [EMAIL PROTECTED].
Which is quite strange as this suppose to be our Domain.
How is this spoof done ? Is he just writing his name cyrus in the email
address field of the email client, and not specifying complete/correct
email address.
Thanks
Note the header below,
Cyrus didn't specify a valid domain suffix for his email address, and as a
result your mail clients/mail routing software are appending a domain.

Version 1 of your proposal is exactly what I have done in the past, and
works quite well (within some defined boundaries). Account managers were

What about the existing Printer Location Tracking features in AD, and
simply use the app to map printers based on their location ? Even if you
don't autmatically map printers, the PLT features automatically filter
printers for users based on their current location.

Greetings,
We have a requirement for encoding an entry on our AD groups with an ID code

Remember that Ad-Aware can only be legally used in non-commercial
environments. Spybot SD and Spyware Blaster are both free to both home and
corporate users, so I usually use these instead of Ad-Aware.
Regular users should not be able to write to the

When a user gets a virus, that virus will
execute under that users security context. So a regular user should NOT
have a virus write to those keys.
True?

There are examples out there of viruses elevating

limit the impact not necessarily prevent every single infection. Things
happen and you have to either decide to limit the amount of damage a virus or
