Re: Computers Return from the Dead



I like where you are going Gumby, but removing the computers from the domain should've blown away there credentials so they couldn't be checking in remotely. Or did I miss something?

Though other chat is relevent I'm interested in the status of these 'dead' PC's. Have they been destroyed (wiped) or have they been given away and are possibly still running the original install?

Hi,

In my recent Extended Server Usage Report, under the Web Activity by
Computer section, I see two computers that are no longer on the domain, (they
don't even exist any more!), AND they seem to have 24hr/day web activity.

I checked with Manage Computers on the SBS machine (standard version, 2003)
and confirmed that these two machines are not on the network. How then does
the server usage report still show them, and show them as being active?

Thanks,

- Pasta
