Re: System Admin



Hello qq,

The adminpak is made for administrating an Active Directory/Domain environment and it seems for me that you are not really familiar with a Windows domain administration. You have tools for DNS DHCP DFS etc. and you need at least a basic understanding about this. Otherwise you can do a lot mistakes. Als you can install software with Group policies to all domain workstations with Microsoft installer packages. Additional you can install software with scripting solutions from normal .exe files.

If i am wrong with my thoughts, please correct me, but i think you have to start with basics about domains and the setup/administrating of them.

Best regards

Hi Meinolf,

Thank you so much for your help.

I have a lot of XP computers and many users, which I want to manange
to. I can use the Administrator Tools package to manager computers and
users, right?

For example, I want to install an software to all of these computers
at the same time, do you know which tools I can use? Thanks. Now, what
I am doing is that I copy the install exe file to a server and shared
the files, then, I remote login to each client PC to run the shared
install exe file, I install it on one client PC at a time. Then, do
second, third .......etc. I want to find another way to do it.
Because I spend a lot of time on it.

Thanks a lot,

Hi Meinolf,

Thank you so much for your help.

I have Windows 2000 servers and Windows 2003 servers. Can I copy
C:\windows\system32\adminpak.msi on the 2003 server to my XP
computer in C:\windows\system32\ folder? Does it works for my
winodws 2000 server?

Yes, yes.

After I copy adminpak.msi, can I just go to Start > Run > type:
adminapk.msi to install it on my XP computer?

Yes.

Where I could find information about how to use the Administration
Tools pack?

Help from the opened console itself.

Thanks a lot.

Hello qq,

If you are talking about a domain controller and managing it from
the Xp machine install the adminpak.msi on th XP machine. You can
find it in the c:\windows\system32 folder on the 2003 server.

Hi, All,

Is any body know any way to manage Windows Servers and XP client
in LAN? I want to find out some way to let system Administrator
stay on their desk for finishing their tasks. Currently, system
administrator is using Remote Desktop to login in servers and
clients to do it.

Another question, is any body know any web site for System
Administrator to know new Tools and software, also know what tasks
a system administrator should do during the day, week & month?

Thanks a lot,
