Swipe a copy from windows 2003 server. It works perfectly on XP. Haven't tried it on 2K. If someone has a place that you can host the file, I will email it to you so you can share it with the rest.

Good luck finding a copy if you are just an end user. Justin Beckley has contributed a script which I will probably bundle in the next release. It simply modifies HKEY_CURRENT_USER/Control Panel/PowerCfg/CurrentPowerPolicy to have a value between 0 and 5, which supposedly sets power management according to the following table: Turn Off System --------------------------------------- monitor hard disk standby hibernate 0 - Home/Office Desk - 20 min. Never Never Never 1 - Portable/Laptop - 15 min. 30 min. 20 min. 3 hrs. 2 - Presentation - Never Never Never Never 3 - Always On - 20 min. Never Never Never 4 - Minimal Mngt. - 15 min. Never Never Never 5 - Max Battery - 15 min. Never 20 min. 45 min. I am not sure where Justin got this from, but hey, if it works... > - Change the location of "My Documents" so that is located in a > different disk. To change it for one user, you can right-click on it, select "Properties", and then "Move...". You can script this change using WSH's CreateShortcut method (which is badly named; it also lets you modify an existing shortcut): http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/en-us/script56/html/wsmthcreateshortcut.as p To change it for all users, the best I can find is: http://www.jsiinc.com/SUBF/TIP2700/rh2771.htm But this uses "folder redirection" which may not be what you want. > - Create a new dial-up connection (always the same one so it should be > easy). The Microsoft answer to this one, I think, is to use the "Connection Manager Administration Kit" (cmak), which is part of adminpak.msi. You can find the latter on the Windows 2000 Server (or Server 2003) CD-ROM and possibly for download from Microsoft. I do not have any more details; sorry. You might have better luck with these questions on one of the Microsoft newsgroups. - Pat ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Perforce Software.
