How about your windows xp computer? Is it join domain successful or not? If you could join it successful, try to check your windows xp setting and find the reason why you can't join your windows 2003 to a domain controller. As I suggest, try to check your DNS setting on your domain controller and your client.

Hi, what is the difference between Local Security Policy and Group Policy in windows XP?

I believe the two snap-ins affect the same settings, but that the settings from Group Policy will override any settings made locally. Only if all of the Group Policy Objects have '(not set)' as the value for a setting will the local setting take effect.

Problem with assign logon script for local user account

Yes, I already check the group policies and local security setting one by one. I found that the local security setting is part of group policies in the section of Computer configuration -> windows setting -> Security settings.

May be I need to test it first. Because I found that, when I configure the setting of auditing policies in local security setting, the setting in group policies also change too.

Thank you for your comment Smile | :)

Re: Problem with assign logon script for local user account

29-Jul-06 18:26

Hi, I have some problem with assign a logon script in windows xp. Please read read my below activities and suggest me if you found any error:

1. My computer name is Net1. I log on as a local administrator account.
2. I create a user account name User1 with blank password.
3. Create a folder name Welcome and create some file in it. Then make a Make a network share with "Welcome" as a share name and define permission for Everyone group in Share tab to Full control and Everyone group in security tab to read, read and execute and list folder content.
4. Log off Administrator account and logon with User1 account.
5. Log off User1 account and logon as Administrator account again. (I do this because i want user1 has it own profile).
6. In Administrative mode, I create a folder name Logon Script in the root drive C: and share it and put LS as a share name. I define the permission for both Share tab and security tab as step 3.
7. I create a batch file name MappedNetworkDrive.bat and the content of the file is mapped the network drive for welcome folder. The content of the file is:

net use y: \\net1\welcome

8. I assign the logon script to User1 in computer management and put the below path in Logon script text box: LS\MappedNetworkDrive.bat
9. I try to log off administrator account and log on as User1 account but i couldn't see the mapped network drive appear in windows explorer. I try to log off and logon many time but the network drive didn't map for me. But when I still in User1 mode and double click on the batch file directly, the drive is mapped successful but I don't want to to do. I want to mapped it automatically.

Does anyone see any problem with my above activities?

Try changing the share with the batch file to netlogon and change the user properties script options to MappedNetworkDrive.bat and see what happens. orherwise recate a new entery in the registery and get that to call the batch file under HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run

Hi all:

I know for MSI installation package you can choose to install in default mode(Without UI)
MsiSetInternalUI(INSTALLUILEVEL_NONE, NULL);
and also register a callback
MsiSetExternalUI (MSIProgressHandler, /*all the installation msg you interested in*/...
to get MSI installation progress message with some info.
But now I have an exe installation package, and I've tried this package with '/q' command line, It did installed in background without any UI, but how can I get installation progress info like I did in MSI in this scenario?

That will depend very much on whether the supplied EXE was coded to allow you to do so. It probably wasn't, so you'll be out of luck.

Hi, I found this configuration tool online. I currently use it, it creates infrastructure reports pretty quickly, and I didn't know if anyone else has used it. I have the free version right now, and am wondering whether or not I should upgrade.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Smile | :)

I would like to add an item to the Menu in File Explorer in Windows Mobile 5.0. When a file has been selected different options is available via the Menu button, like Beam, Delete, Rename etc. But how to add a new item to this menu so I can process the file with my own application?

Hi,
I am using Windows 2000 on my machine and I change the user type of administrator to Power Users. And then I restarted the System. But now when I am trying to open the Users and Passwords option in the control panel.
It is giving error :

You must be a member of Administrators group on this computer to open the Users and Passwords control panel. You are logged in as IT3\Administrator, which is not a member of the Administrators group.

And I have no other user account. Please help me in this issue.

Try to use Bart PE[^] to create a windows live CD and boot from this CDROM. Then try to logon as administrator account (may be the account from the CDROM) and try to upgrade your computer account an administrator group member ship.

I'm a little surprised it let you do that. Unfortunately, there's no way back so far as I'm aware - you'll have to reinstall.

Hi, the below is the script to get Computer information:

Set objComputer = CreateObject("Shell.LocalMachine")<br />
<br />
Wscript.Echo "Computer name: " & objComputer.MachineName<br />
Wscript.Echo "Shutdown allowed: " & objComputer.IsShutdownAllowed<br />
Wscript.Echo "Friendly UI enabled: " & objComputer.IsFriendlyUIEnabled<br />
Wscript.Echo "Guest access mode: " & objComputer.IsGuestAccessMode<br />
Wscript.Echo "Guest account enabled: " & _<br />
    objComputer.IsGuestEnabled(0)<br />
Wscript.Echo "Multiple users enabled: " & _<br />
    objComputer.IsMultipleUsersEnabled<br />
Wscript.Echo "Offline files enabled: " & _<br />
    objComputer.IsOfflineFilesEnabled<br />
Wscript.Echo "Remote connections enabled: " & _<br />
    objComputer.IsRemoteConnectionsEnabled<br />
Wscript.Echo "Undock enabled: " & objComputer.IsUndockEnabled

Let look at at this: objComputer.IsRemoteConnectionsEnabled I want to know that why IsRemoteConnectionsEnabled property is the member of objComputer object? Are there any document that list all properties of an object and how to use it? Because I want to write my own script without copy and customize the script from the other people. I want to create something by myself about scripting. Any idea?

Have you ever looked at Objective-C??? Dead | X|

And as for COCOA... Suspicious | :suss:

OK so they have an Intel in now, but I ask you... is that really enough???

Just write it in Java or use wxWidgets under Visual Studio and recompile it under that crap that comes with the Mac, what is it? X-Studio or something???

Better still Bootcamp your Mac into XP!

Besides, I think your forum would be even quieter than the ATL/WTL/STL template library one! Laugh | :laugh:

All OSes have their strengths and weaknesses. I don't think one is better than another.
