Hi, I have some problems now twice times the same: On the desktop I'll found the information, to send a bugform to the support center for the software : SMS-manager.

I've deinstalled the SMS-Manager: no result. looking for help

I have been having an issue with this particular piece.

Windows 2003 SP1 PDC announces itself as stratum 1

Hi all, I have the following setup: NTP client: Single domain controller (Windows 2003 SP1) with w32time service running. Being the only DC in the domain (and forest), it has all FSMO roles including the PDC-role. NTP server: GNU/Linux running ntpd at stratum-2. The w32time service har been configured using: "net time / setsntp:<ip_of_linux_ntp_server>" + net stop/start w32time. Problem: When starting the w32time service (or when running "w32tm /resync"), the PDC announces itself as being a stratum-1 server, so when the NTP- server - being a stratum-2 server - receives NTP requests from the PDC, it silently ignores the requests from the PDC. …

http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/another-desktop-cube-for-windows-xpvista/ The Desktop Cube effect for Linux is extremely popular because people love eye candy, but the choices for Windows are much less interesting. The latest utility to give this effect for Windows is surprisingly fast, and works on both XP and Vista. Of course, Keyboard Ninjas prefer keyboard shortcuts to snazzy desktops, but that's not the point is it? Here's the screen in action, which is surprisingly fast on my Vista laptop. .........see the rest on the link I provided........

System Monitor on Win2K3 vs Win2K
by Guest TroubleMan- 0 replies
- 112 views
I have noticed that performance logs created on 2K3 three boxes take alot longer to open than on 2K boxes. If I have two identical servers collecting the same counters in system monitor the 2K3 box takes alot longer to open the same size log file. The only differnce between the servers is the OS. Any ideas on what to look for? So far I have: Tried the test on two newly built servers Tried to open the log file on servers that did not create the log file Rebuilt the performance counters per Microsoft KB

You might be thinking. isn't it working already? What you don't realize is that Adobe Reader also installs an IFilter that helps Windows index your documents.
