dfrancis a commenté : Best way to handle an Office 2010 to 2013 upgrade with Software Portal?

If a user pinned Office 2010 apps to their taskbar, the uninstall through the Office 2013 install would not remove those pinned apps. The pinned Office 2010 apps would throw errors when the user clicked on them and the user freaked out and ...

dfrancis a commenté : Best way to handle an Office 2010 to 2013 upgrade with Software Portal?

It was ugly, but I managed to figure it out. In case anyone else needs to tackle this, here's how I did this in my environment... As I mentioned before, all of our software installs are in UNC paths. Both Office 2010 and Office ...

dfrancis a commenté : Best way to handle an Office 2010 to 2013 upgrade with Software Portal?

In the install/uninstall command line for Office 2010 I have to point to a config.xml file. If I create the uninstall command on the Office 2010 package (Manage > Software > Managed Software) do I reference the location to that XML ...

We're a smaller shop that's still running DS 6.9 for our imaging/software deployment needs but also have SMP 7.1 collecting inventory and doing some patch stuff. We're getting ready to roll out Office 2013 to our users, and with our initial testing deploying ...

dfrancis a commenté : Help Desk 6.x -> Service Desk -- Opinions?

We're still going strong on a non-Symantec solution. The rules in the solution were easy to set up but there wasn't as much robustness with the criteria you could key off of in HD6. We also use Workflow for a variety of web forms ...

dfrancis a commenté : Help Desk 6.x -> Service Desk -- Opinions?

I hear ya. We just purchased a different solution and it looks like I can do a migration from Help Desk 6.5 to the new product fairly easily and still have it pull asset info from my 7.1 CMDB with no problems.

dfrancis a commenté : How can I move the keyring location outside of "My Documents"?

So I wound up finding out how to solve the problem. Apparently if the keyrings are still in My Docs, PGP seems to think that it's fine and it will leave them there. I was able to get around this by imaging up a new machine without ...

dfrancis a commenté : How can I move the keyring location outside of "My Documents"?

We don't restrict access to their My Docs folder; I just don't want the keys stored on the file server. There's no reason for them to be stored there. They should reside on the local machine.

dfrancis a commenté : How can I move the keyring location outside of "My Documents"?

I want these to default to a folder outside of My Documents; not manually move several hundred. PGP doesn't seem to like %userprofile% and I'm not sure if it even has support for system variables like that. I can't statically ...

dfrancis a publié : How can I move the keyring location outside of "My Documents"?

We redirect the My Documents folder to a network share via Group Policy, and as a result the PGP keyrings get redirected as well due to their default location going into a "PGP" folder in My Documents. I'd like to keep these files locally, i.e. in C:\Users\username\PGP ...

dfrancis a commenté : Help Desk 6.x -> Service Desk -- Opinions?

Our users are not too nostalgic for mid-90's styled web sites, so any change to the UI would probably be welcome here. :) That's kind of stupid that you can't run Service Desk and SQL on the same box for smaller implementations ...

Scratch that; I had my OU formatted wrong. I swapped it so it read Disabled Accounts/ToBeDeleted and POOF it works. Thanks for the help!!

Late yesterday I got a little more aggressive with my pause execution workflow item between folder creation and permission setting via Set File/Folder System Rights and it seemed to be consistently going through without throwing errors. ...

dfrancis a commenté : Add User to Organizational Unit - Object formatting issues

Still not having much luck with this. As a test I've been manually specifying the samAccountName in a test workflow before dropping it into the main one I'm building. I've tried the actual samAccountName jdoe, the distinguished ...

Hey guys, I'm working on a new hire workflow and am trying to create the new user's share on our file server and give them permissions to the share, but I'm having difficulties. The "Create Directory" component works flawlessly, but I need to give the ...

Hi everyone, We're still rocking an old Help Desk 6.x server in our environment and it's still running like a champ. With the product being EOL'd by Symantec, I feel like we're on borrowed time with it and will be behind the 8-ball if the server should ever go ...

Looks like HP's site finally started behaving itself again, for anyone who wants to try this out in their environment.
