Where can i get them, specifically Domain users and exchange users. You need to install the admin pack from the w2k server cd. This will provide you with access to the server tools needed to manage your users and servers. The admin pack is located in the i386 directory. Also make sure you install the Support tools and resource kit if you can. These can come in handy every now and then.You also need to install the exchange admin tools which are located on the exchange server cd. Just insert the cd into your pc and you'll be allowed to select the exchange tools. This will allow you to manage the users email boxes etc. How do i see who is actually logged into both my mail server and file/print server (is on the same machine)at a point in time and can this be stored someplace so I can review who logged in and when etc ? I may be a little off on this one, but here goes: You need to make sure you have the necessary auditing options enabled via policy. Do this either via local or domain policy. You can select to audit logon access and some other security options that'll allow you to see who's logged on. This can be viewed via Event Viewer. YOu can also check out some of the tools available at sysinternals. They provide some pretty good utilities you can use for monitoring certain functions & happenings on your network. I'm sure someone will chime in with answers in a minute or two. 2nd day of summer, these guys are prolly out taking in some well deserved sun. anyway...hth -----Original Message----- From: Ryan Thomas [mailto:ryan@xxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Sunday, June 22, 2003 12:58 PM To: [ExchangeList] Subject: [exchangelist] Re: Couple of Noobie Questions from a Linux user http://www.MSExchange.org/ Got no replies last time, does anyone knw the answer to these 2 ? thanks ----- Original Message ----- From: Ryan Thomas To: [ExchangeList] Sent: Friday, June 20, 2003 2:39 PM Subject: [exchangelist] Couple of Noobie Questions from a Linux user http://www.MSExchange.org/ Win 2000 server and exchange 2000 1.
