Not that I am aware of.
A URL being accessed is a URL being accessed there is no distinction as to a
part of a page or a primary page as far as the looking at the on wire
network traffic is concerned.

If your encryption certificates and keys were not backed up for
transfer to the new OS, and the workstation isn't part of a domain
(whose Administrator might act as the designated recovery agent), those
files are gone, for all practical purposes. Encryption works well and
there is no "back door" or hack to access the files. (Wouldn't be much
point to EFS if it were easily by-passed.)

I'm using Vista Home Premium with latest updates
I had a normal administration account on the laptop that I'm using
I created vpn connection to a network and somehow Windows Vista had
great idea of changing my administration account to a roaming account
Now when I start my computer I can only log in to that roaming account
There is not even option to login in to original administration account
Allso if I create new accounts they are allso roaming accounts
My question is:
How do I change this roaming account back to administration accout? I
it is possible
OR How do I can login to my administration accout? If it even stil
exists

Thanks for the help

Server. Because I have relocated recently to a differeny country, I have not
been able to move the SBS and have had to close it down.
I am still able to log on to the laptop using the cached password, but there
are some group policy settings that I want to override and also the laptop is
always looking for a domain server.
I know I can remove the laptop from the domain, but then I will lose all the
user settings for the domain account I am logging in with.
Is there a procedure I can follow to save the user settings for my domain
account before removing the laptop from the domain, which I can then apply to
my local user settings?

The ID being used to authenticate to the server has an expired password. The
Remote Desktop Client gathers the credentials and apparently takes them and
tries to login to the server, more or less in the background. A dialog comes
back with a window title of "Remote Desktop Disconnected" and a message of
"You must change your password before logging on the first time. For
assistance, contact your system administrator or technical support.". The
user is never given the opportunity to change the password.

Connecting from an XP SP3 machine is different. You get the RDP connection,
can enter the password, and then are asked to change it.

Both the XP and the Visa RDC (mstsc.exe) is 6.0.6001.18000.

Office network (Windows Server 2000-Active Directory, Windows Server
2003-faxing program, client computers running Vista Business). Keep getting a
DCX output error when the Vista users attempt to fax, but check out these
results:

1. The DCX issue appears only when the users (1, 2) sign on to their OWN
computers.
2. The DCX issue DOES NOT occur when user 1 signs on to user 2's computer
and vise versa.
3. The DCX issue DOES NOT occur when any other user sings on the 1 and/or
2's computer.
4. The DCX issue DOES NOT occur when users 1, while using its own
computer, right clicks and selects "Run as Administrator" (inputting the
username/password of the network administrator). Same for user 2.
5. This DCX issue DOES NOT occur when users 1 and/or 2, while using their
own computers, have their network privileges elevated to Domain Admin status.

I just don't get it. All I can surmise is that there maybe a program,
installed by users 1 and/or 2, that is causing this. Any help would be
appreciated.
