Like others here.. I keep a text file with the link (if applicable), username and password to all tech admin resources, and a brief description of what the login is for. It's then stored in printed form in our agency safe, which only 3 people have access to. I just need to remember to print them a new update each time I update a password. For users

There are a number of free online database systems that work much better than Access. MySQL for example, in connection with php which is also free, is great. I use it for a home server to run a decent little game called Legend of the Green Dragon. Very efficient, very responsive, decently secure. And there are converter tools - what you made in access

Hello fellow multi-hat wear-ers.. I'm debating a change in our I.T. layout. We have a Dell 2900 server with dual-xenon processors, windows server 2003, and 4 gigs of ram on a raid 5 array. Currently this server does the job of.. - Domain login - Remote login via Termianl Services - Basic file serving/storage - One SQL database installation/service

Resolved. I removed Enhanced Internet Explorer Security - now more than 1 user can open a database file on the network drive. Its not what I wanted to have to do, but it works.

This is just obscene! I log in to TS with Admin in one window, and as a regular user with access rights in another window. I can create a text file in either, amd save it in the directory on the K drive. I can open that text file in both windows as the same time. I can delete it from either login. In the same directory on K drive is the MS Access database

Hi Bob, And it needs to be able to delete a "db1.mdb" file as users exit and the program runs an automatic compact/repair function. So I checked the specifics under the Advanced tab for the Modify set - all it was missing was the right to delete files/folders. So I set the directory that has the database to have Full control for the group that needs

This issue is driving me nuts. Windows Server 2003. c:\folders is setup as a shared folder It has for Set Permissions, Full Control for Domain Users It has for Security, Domain Users with the Modify setting Under this primary folder is c:\folders\databases That folder is mapped as K drive in a logon script. Any user logging in to the server in the same

I wouldn't discount the possibility of NPO's using this as an opportunity to kiss MS goodbye. Its been on my radar for the past year to explore the alternatives in the flavours of Linux. Its far less expensive, unbeleivable smaller file sizes, and yet exceptionally similar in the user interfaces for things like OpenOffice. I'm not moving

I've been reading the system requirements for running Vista for some time now, and they're appalling. The minimum refers to 512 ram, and direct-x 9 compat cards, and 20 gig hard drives. About 90% of our 120 computers (most of those client use machines in employment services offices) are donated equipment, ranging from P3 600Mhz to 1.1ghz. NONE

XP Clients NT Server (at the moment) Switching to Windows 2003 Why does the Server 2003 machine need to be listed as the Primary DNS server for a client to be able to find it as the domain controller and log in? On our NT based system, client computers have two DNS entries that refer to our ISP. But those machines can still find the domain server and
