Alright then. I just think you'll find you're in the minority of people who think 2000 wasn't good or great. As an aside, I remember when XP came out, people called it Windows Legos edition. People moved to XP because MS stopped updating 2000 and it wasn't a bad upgrade, mainly a change in look

I think this is more of a network routing question. AFAIK, AD doesn't care if machines are on separate networks, as long as the DC's can communicate, and the network is correctly routed. I'd probably standup a DC for domain 1 at site 2, to minimize traffic across the VPN. On Thu, Mar 8, 2012 at

Here's an idea... No idea if it would work, but I don't see why it wouldn't. Copy the contents of that CD to a fileshare, install from that share. Don't have to deal with the CD being mounted properly or autorun. On Fri, Mar 2, 2012 at 12:04 PM, Michael Leone wrote: > On Fri, Feb 24, 2012 at 9

I've noticed that there are times that the autorun doesn't pop up the installer. I'm able to go to the virtual cd and install it, though. AFAIK, the command to install VMWare tools just loads the virtual CD into the virtual drive, and some interaction is necessary, or even advisable... On Fri, Fe

Changing to static IPs requires you touch every machine. Yuck. Going with option #2, I'm assuming you mean reservations, is pretty easy to implement, as you have all that information available via the DHCP console. So, it's easy to make the change there, and workstations/users won't be any the w
