PC running XP - how to file from the domain network

Hello

I have a PC that cannot be upgraded to Windows 7 and must remain under XP. However since XP is out-of-support I don't want him make them vulnerable to other PCs on the domain network. How to get the PC from the domain network? Is there a way to do this to make sure that it is not reached the domain network?

Thank you!

Be joined or not joined to the domain will do all the other machines on the network more or less safe.  Join domain is not separated in this way: the XP machine will always be on the network even if it is not a member of the domain.

But if you still want to take this action, you can do it from the System Properties dialog box by choosing a workgroup instead of a domain.  You can also open Group Policy Manager and refuse to join a domain, but given that only an administrator can do anyway, which is probably not necessary.

  • How to disconnect from the PC network?

    Hello

    I have a Linux server with Samba file sharing. This way people can connect to the server of their windows PC and see everything they represent allows them to see.

    Thinking now, we have also a public PC witch different people connect to the samba server.

    The problem with the latter is that different people need to connect with different accounts to see what they are allowed to see. However, windows stores the credentials and connects automatically without the opportunity to sign in with a different account.

    I was wondering if it is possible in windows 7 (and if anyone knows, in windows XP too) how to sign out of this samba server? I'm sure that windows stores logins somewhere, so remove this information would be enough to let the popup windows for the new connection, just information?

    Thank you very much!

    'Remember my credentials' is selected by default. The fastest way to stop this is to run NET USE / PERSISTENT: NO to a command prompt. I have this in a batch file to logon (with off @Echo for the first line) that runs whenever a client connects to the network. If an action requires a name of user and password, the customer enters this information in the 'black' box (command window).

  • Cannot open the files from the shared network drive

    Hi, I am trying to open a file located on a server of storage attached to the network in a shared drive. When I try to open the file in Photoshop CC 2014 directly or by double-clicking in the file Explorer, I get a pop-up box in Photoshop that says that the image of CR2 is not the right kind of document. If I copy the file to another USB drive attached, the file opens correctly in Camera Raw.

    This will give you tangentially more insight in the work through a network to NOT be supported by Adobe:

    This is the standard text often used for saving to a network (NOTE the part where he explains that normally, it works, but it is impossible to solve someone else on the network remotely, and that's why he didn't is not supported by Adobe):

    If you open files on a network, or saved on a network server, please cease and desist immediately in the case where you currently have problems with one or more files. On a network is not supported.

    See:

    http://kb2.Adobe.com/CPS/406/kb406793.html

    Copy the local file CLOSED your server hard disk, work on it, again to save it on your local hard drive, close it and copy the closed file on the server.
     
    Of course, the fact that Adobe does not support work on a network does not necessarily mean that it doesn't work.  It should be.

    Adobe position is that there are too many variables in a network environment for them to ensure that everything will work properly in all systems, particularly in view of the fact that that something will not work properly, it is probably the fault of the network, and Adobe has no way of troubleshooting of your network.

    If you are unable to work locally, you are yourself, and if something happens, you're on your own. If you work from a server, make sure that your network administrator is a competent professional.

    When problems arise, much valuable work can be lost.

  • How can I transfer a file from the operating system to a backup of the production running VM virtual machine?

    Problem:  After I do a backup one using ghettoVCB on a local VMFS volume, I have a virtual machine that I can start something happened to that running.  However, sometimes I just need a file from the OS level, which means that I would need to start to get them, but then I have an IP address conflict.  I can't imagine a way to have the NICs turned off and still be able to move the file.  If I change the IP addresses, the software that I need to create the file that I need to transfer no longer works because, although there no need of constant connectivity to the seller, it is locked to the public IP address.http://communities.vmware.com/images/emoticons/sad.gif

    Material:  I have two 4 ESXi hosts to work, each with local VMFS volumes.  They share a private vlan common and a vlan common public.  They each ssh, ftp, wput, wget, and rsync available.  I have a Windows 2003 Server VM which also hosts a NFS and the VI client and other VMWare tools.  It also has private and public interfaces as do virtual machines that would be to make and receive the OS files.

    Question:  How can I transfer a file from the operating system to a backup of the production running VM virtual machine?

    Thank you!

    Yes Mr President, make sure you set the network on this virtual machine to be connected to the 'Internal' vswitch, you set up before turning the power on to the virtual machine.

  • Loading error when you try to load the Halo 2 "files are missing or damaged in the installation directory. A few important files required to run this game are missing from the installation directory.

    Original title: load error when you try to load Halo 2

    People at Microsoft, I have a problem trying to load Halo 2 on my dv7 Paviliaon with Vista and the 2.8 GB Intel Centrino 2 processor. When I try and load the game, I get and error stating: "the files are missing or damaged in the installation directory. A few important files required to run this game are missing from the installation directory. "It bothered me for several reasons. One: the disc that I use is an original disc out of the box so hsould have no problem. Two: the game has been loaded previously on the same computer without apparent problem at the time. It has been deleted (don't remember why) and when I tried to reinstall, the error came. Three: I did as recommended and updated all programs and drivers, nothing works. So my question is, how do I reinstall Halo 2 and what this problem will arise if I decide to buy and load Halo 3?

    Thank you for your time in advance.

    The iPad does not support USB keys. There are some wireless flash drives that can be used, but not the classical records. I suggest you transfer files to a computer and their synchronization then back to the iPad via iTunes.

    I have a lot of old e-mail files I try to delete, but they remain in the file from the Recycle Bin of 2009. How can I get rid of them?

    If you have an IMAP account, go to Mail/preferences/accounts/box mailbox behaviors and make sure that the store deleted messages on the server is not checked. If this is the case, uncheck the box and see if you can remove the trash.

    If that is not working, go to Mail/trash, select an e-mail message and then control - click/Delete. Does it work?
