Hello ActiveDir,
I know this is out of topic, but it I think this is a non common issue
to know about.
I just came across a bug on ntfs.sys. It made chkdsk reporting many
errors on security descriptors like this:
Replacing invalid security id with default security id for file 1396371.
After 6 years of working with AD I just realized that when you unshare a
printer it becomes invisible and unmanageable. I guess I always knew
this in the back of my head, but it never hit home until I tried
cleaning up the printer list. Why are printers third-class citizens of
AD, without a
Hello there, have you had a look at the Windows Server 2003 R2 Printer
Management Console, I think this will solve your issue (still doesn't
make printers first class citizens though ;))

Print Queue objects are created by default under the computer on which the
printers are shared from. It is, in fact, IMO, an extremely logical way of
handling it since you don't have to worry about delegating permissions to
print admins, the computer itself can create/delete them as necessary.
Right. The computer is responsible for managing the print queue objects.
Any changes you make on the print server are reflected on the published
queue. Everytime the spooler service starts it confirms that the queue
objects for published printers are all still in the directory.
There is a thread
Does anybody know
what is the 'best' way to add automatically a folder to existing mailboxes and
set aquota on that same folder?
We would like all
our users to get a foldercalled "private" added to the root of their
mailbox and if possible, a quota to be set to that folder.
Can this be
Hello Victor,
you will at least need an account that can access all mailboxes (not a domain admins one)
(or give a script to everyone that they will execute)
To my knowledge, quota is mailbox based. You may set up a special retention on this folder.
sample _vbscript_ to create the private
I am running Exchange 2003 SP2 and have a question about
mail forwarding. I would like to forward all mail from a specific domain to an
outside e-mail address. So, when a message comes in from [EMAIL PROTECTED], the
message is automatically forwarded to [EMAIL PROTECTED].
Is this possible
You cant do per folder quotas. If youve got a lot of mailboxes
thats going to be slow going with that code (but it will work).
Exchange 2007 and Outlook 2007 add a feature which will
accomplish what you want.
Thanks,

Oh no kidding Brian... I had never heard that about the pruning... I hate to
ask this, but is there any documentation on that? That would totally explain
some things various folks have asked me about DCs spinning up dialup
connections at WAN sites every 8 hours...

Config/Admin Templates/Printers.

It's not well documented. The best source I found is the whitpaper:
Integration of Windows 2000 Printing with Active Directory
http://www.microsoft.com/windows2000/docs/printad.doc
Here's an extract.
The pruning service, which runs on each domain controller, performs this

Hello Victor,
If the folder already exist, it will simply do nothing, except going into errors..
need to add a on error resume next or test if the folder exist before.

I don't see your goal with this folder...except if you turn special rights on it.
If you know how to code, event sink is your option.

You will note that when you create
a queue, you get the option to publish it to the directory, it isn't
mandatory, not required, it is simply an option
of course, but ONLY if you share them. As soon as you stop sharing them,

Hello there, have you had a look at the Windows Server 2003 R2 Printer
But if a printer is not shared out to the network, is it a network device?
It can only be used on the local machine.
Do you want every local printer on every single machine in a company showing
up in the directory? Consider a large multinational with hundreds of
thousands of desktops and
It would get killed if the share didn't actually exist
