Add Wireless Capability to Existing Business Network

Totustek — Wed, 23 Nov 2011 22:16:07 +0000

Hello Everyone,

I’m a new tech intern and the company I’m working for has asked me to add wireless capability to their existing network.

I am looking at various access points and the building is large enough that we will probably require at least two AP’s. They are using Active Directory to control login’s for their domain and I would like to know what the easiest way to add wireless capability so that laptops can log in the same way their wired desktops do to access the same domain. We’re looking to connect the APs directly to the switch.

Any suggestions on AP brands/models for this smaller setup would be much appreciated as well.

Thanks!

Local Security Authority Cannot Be Contacted in Outlook Web Access

Hi,

We set up an Exchange 2003 Server at work and it seems to work fine using OWA, as long as the user is an Administrator. If we remove the user from the Administrators’ group, they get the following message in the browswer: “Local Security Authority Cannot Be Contacted”. Of course, we can’t make all users Administrators; is there another way to resolve this? It must have something to do with folder permissions, but I can’t figure out what they are.

We need to build a mock network for testing purposes and move some domain machines from the production network to this test environment with a new Active Directory server and domain mimicking the production domain. What issues can you foresee for this setup (if any?)

Setting Active Directory rules

Can we set Active Directory rules that say when a user is able to log in to a domain computer and off hours should display a message telling the user they do not have access to the system at this time.

Sending email to addresses outside my domain

NewnanIT — Tue, 03 May 2011 19:45:12 +0000

I can only send email internally and when I try to send to an outside email address not in my domain I see errors that relaying is not allowed. I set up my account in Outlook from memory and might have missed a step. Our server is Imail Mail Server with unlimited licenses. Any ideas?
