RE: GPP drive mapping 'reconnect'

The reconnect isn't necessary helpful for remote users - I wasn't clear on that. What I mean is that using GPP is helpful for remote users. We have many VPN users here, so once they connect to the VPN, they can go to Windows Explorer to open their files. No script needed - the drives will be

RE: GPP drive mapping 'reconnect'

Do you have “Always wait for the network at computer startup and logon” enabled? The more I read the less I understand about what ‘reconnect’ does. I’m dense, so how does the reconnect option help when a change is coming? *From:* Tom Miller *Sent:* January 14, 2013 11:37 AM *To:* NT System Admi

Re: smb firewall recommendation

I've used Sonicwalls, and currently have a TZ100 in a small remote office. It works very well and has given me no trouble. The old complaint was that their support was horrible. Now that they are owned by Dell, I have no idea what the support situation is like. YMMV. We have recently moved to a

I had that setting enabled back when we started to use GPPs on Windows 7 devices. I do not see a need for in here - our network is Windows 7 workstations. Recreate (not reconnect, sorry) just deletes the printer/mapping, whatever at each processing of the GPP, then recreates it. From: Elijah

RE: Time sync issues

Kerberos authentication fails if time drifts too far off and you lose access to network resources, such as shares. The tolerance for time drift varies with server editions. I think Server 2003 had a 5 minute drift tolerance and I think Server 2008 has a 10-minute tolerance. Best regards, Mic
