You need a separate forest to get the effect you want. The Domain gets you nothing more than an OU would. Thanks, Brian Desmond [EMAIL PROTECTED] c - 312.731.3132 From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Group, Russ Sent: Thursday, November 30, 2006 11:19 AM

RE: [ActiveDir] Split pagefile

You're going to have other issues if you have that little free space on your C drive. My suggestion is that you find something else to cleanup or else replace the spindles with larger ones. Yes its fine to store the pagefile elsewhere though. Thanks, Brian Desmond [EMAIL PROTECTED] c

RE: [ActiveDir] dynamic variables within an event log entry?

Michael- I don't have an AD install or ADFind in front of me, but whencreated=Now-24hr gives you everything in the past 24 hours. Thanks, Brian Desmond [EMAIL PROTECTED] c - 312.731.3132 From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Thommes, Michael M. Sent

RE: [ActiveDir] Pointsec software vs. Active Directory

Vincent- I have no idea what Pointsec is or does, perhaps you could share a little bit about this. What are the characteristics of the domain controllers in your test forest? How much memory? Disk config? How big is the DIT? Thanks, Brian Desmond [EMAIL PROTECTED] c

RE: [ActiveDir] Anonymous Access to Virtual Directory or Web Site...

On IIS 6 ensure that Network Service has rights to the content. On IIS5 or IIS6 in IIS5 compatability mode ensure ISUR_HOSTNAME has access to the content. Thanks, Brian Desmond [EMAIL PROTECTED] c - 312.731.3132 -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED

RE: [ActiveDir] OT: Exchange 2007 and W2K3 R2 DC's on ESX - Optimal lab system

Yeah. I suspect you'll bottleneck on disk and memory before you do on CPU, so 1 quad will get you more than enough, as would I suspect 1 dual. Thanks, Brian Desmond [EMAIL PROTECTED] c - 312.731.3132 -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf

RE: [ActiveDir] OT: Exchange 2007 and W2K3 R2 DC's on ESX - Optimal lab system

A pair of quad cores is a lot of horsepower for testing. I suspect you will run out of disk i/o perf and memory long before you encounter the need for a second quad core chip given the scenarios you've described. Thanks, Brian Desmond [EMAIL PROTECTED] c - 312.731.3132 -Original Message

RE: [ActiveDir] [ActiveDIR] OT: Windows 2003 Forest Functional Level 2 while running Exchange 2000

Tim- There is a hotfix for this, I think for Exchange. The issue is that the Exchange 2000 RUS doesn't sense changes when Linked Value Replication is happening. The easiest solution is to introduce an Exchange 2003 server to run your RUS. Thanks, Brian Desmond [EMAIL PROTECTED

RE: [ActiveDir] AD Replication Problem

I would wipe INSIDADC52 and do a metadata cleanup removing it from the domain and then rebuild/repromote it. That will be the easiest route. From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Haritwal, Dhiraj Sent: Saturday, November 18, 2006 9:58 AM To:

RE: [ActiveDir] AD Audit/Compliance Tool

Probably could get some of this out of a Quest Reporter type tool. Personally Id just write a bunch of small .net apps (or use adfind if appropriate) that pump out csv files. Then I import them into a SQL database and make my queries and voila. Thanks, Brian Desmond [EMAIL
