Apologies for the shouting but this is important.
When answering a question please:
- Read the question carefully
- Understand that English isn't everyone's first language so be lenient of bad spelling and grammar
- If a question is poorly phrased then either ask for clarification, ignore it, or mark it down. Insults are not welcome
- If the question is inappropriate then click the 'vote to remove message' button
Insults, slap-downs and sarcasm aren't welcome. Let's work to help developers, not make them feel stupid.

For those new to message boards please try to follow a few simple rules when posting your question.- Choose the correct forum for your message. Posting a VB.NET question in the C++ forum will end in tears.
- Be specific! Don't ask "can someone send me the code to create an application that does 'X'. Pinpoint exactly what it is you need help with.
- Keep the subject line brief, but descriptive. eg "File Serialization problem"
- Keep the question as brief as possible. If you have to include code, include the smallest snippet of code you can.
- Be careful when including code that you haven't made a typo. Typing mistakes can become the focal point instead of the actual question you asked.
- Do not remove or empty a message if others have replied. Keep the thread intact and available for others to search and read. If your problem was answered then edit your message and add "[Solved]" to the subject line of the original post, and cast an approval vote to the one or several answers that really helped you.
- If you are posting source code with your question, place it inside <pre></pre> tags. We advise you also check the "Encode HTML tags when pasting" checkbox before pasting anything inside the PRE block, and make sure "Ignore HTML tags in this message" check box is unchecked.
- Be courteous and DON'T SHOUT. Everyone here helps because they enjoy helping others, not because it's their job.
- Please do not post links to your question in one forum from another, unrelated forum (such as the lounge). It will be deleted.
- Do not be abusive, offensive, inappropriate or harass anyone on the boards. Doing so will get you kicked off and banned. Play nice.
- If you have a school or university assignment, assume that your teacher or lecturer is also reading these forums.
- No advertising or soliciting.
- We reserve the right to move your posts to a more appropriate forum or to delete anything deemed inappropriate or illegal.
cheers,

I mean when I create the other admin account for the other user, they usually reset my built-in admin account. What I prefer is not allow them to reset my admin account while they still have the other right to perform my system.
Please let me know if you still unlear about this point.

Oh you mean a human is changing the password...
Do the other users need administrative privileges? Can't they operate as standard users?
(Just to check the obvious solution)
Strictly speaking, there is really no certain way of preventing people from resetting the password if they have physical access to the machine. Utilities like this[^] make it quite simple.
-- edit --
I dug around the security policies, but there seems to be no way of doing what you want. Anyway, even if you did restrict it by a security policy, anyone in the administrators group can remove the policy.
One idea is to rename the administrator account, to make it hard to identify.
Go to Administrative Tools -> Local Security Policy
Inside Local Policies -> Security Options, there is an option to rename the administrator account. Set it to something like Jack, or whatever will pass as a regular user there.
Of course, this will only make it a little difficult, anyone can check the same setting.
The best way is not to add anyone to the administrators group, and fix whatever doesn't run as a regular user. Or tell them not to touch the admin account...

Yes, the human change the password. He was grant the administrator privileges because of the management team decide so based on his task. So it is ok if he just his task. But that is not enough. He change my built-in administrator password which it mean like steal my identiy to do something. I still be able to reset it back because I'm the enterprise admin but this problem cause me a lot of time to monitor it. That is why I just want to give him an admin privileges but not allow him to reset my admin password.

Well this is not solve my problem. Since he as an admin priviledge, it is very easy for him to view admin account name and especially reset an admin account password.
Now I might set the auditing on account management policy to determine when he reset the user account of my built-in admin account.
Thank for your idea!!!

You are welcome!
As I said earlier, it is probably better to ask the person concerned not to reset the password. Using auditing to monitor him is a good idea...

Hi All,
I'm new to the Exchange Server and at the moment I'm researching options for transitioning Exchange server 2000, so at this point I'm looking at 2003 or 2007 (we aren't wanting to consider 2010 even though it could be released by the time we are ready to carry the transition out, due to the bugs new software usually come with).
Please could you give me some pointers on what I should be looking for? What should I be comparing e.g. number of storage groups/databases?
It seems to me that 2007 is the obvious choice but why 2007 over 2003?
Are there guidelines I should follow, information on the existing system I need to gather?
Any help/advice on this would be really appreciated.
Thanks,
MWRivera

I need a script to upload a file to an FTP server on a daily basis. The code can be in VB Script or Active-X or DOS commands in batch file. I can use window's scheduler to run that script daily. The FTP Server will have user name, pw to upload files.
Please help me in above regard.
Thanks in advance

By gathering very detailed requirements for the system, lots of discussions with the customer on functionality, data storage, reporting specifications, and writing code to meet those requirements.

We have migrated our web site to new web site (don't ask why?)
In order to help us with the transition, we created 301 redirect, from the old web site to the new web site, in IIS. The redirect looks like
http:
This handles all the sub directory as well as query string nicely. we tested the redirect and works great, except for https requests.
Both the new and old web sites have mixed protocol (some pages are http while other https). The redirect for https takes to http not https.
We checked IIS setting, googled, and pulled our hair with no result.
So, Is it possible to redirect http -> http and https -> https on the same web site?
N.P. If we change the redirect to
https:
then all the request gets redirected to SSL, which is not what we want.

Hi All,
I've carried out research on this but just wanted other professionals’ feedback on this.
Our existing mail server has Windows server 2000 with Exchange server 2000 on it and we now have a new server with Windows Server 2008 (not R2).
What version of Exchange server would you purchase in order to migrate the existing Exchange server 2000 over? Exchange Server 2007 or would you wait for Exchange Server 2010, which I read is going/gone to RTM any day now?
Thanks in advance

I just found the article below, which makes me think that Exchange Server 2007 is the way to go being that we would be migrating from Exchange Server 2000. According to the article it says that there is no direct route to migrate directly from 2000 to 2010.
Not to mention 2010 is just being released and who knows what problems it will pose. What do you think?
http://blogs.dirteam.com/blogs/davestork/archive/2009/08/23/the-road-to-exchange-2010-migration-paths.aspx
If wanting to migrate to 2010 would that mean buying license for the intermediate version of exchange (2003 or 2007) and then for 2010?
Thanks,
MWRivera

The machine at IP addresss 192.168.4.223 does not allow an rsh connection. Check that system to see why it is refusing the connection, possibly a firewall issue.

I know, absolutely, you are right for a while. But just a few years ago there weren't multituch mouse pad.
I said, "I want".
I think, we can use in games, in windows applications etc.
