SYSPREP and Ghost Question
I am wondering if anyone here can offer some advice on using Ghost to create
images of Windows XP laptops and desktops that have been prepped using
Sysprep. What I would like to do is create "recovery CD" type CDs to install
on new PCs and Laptops to prepare them for deployment as quickly as
possible.
I am using Norton Ghost Enterprise Edition Version 7.0 and have no problem
preparing a boot disk to map a shared drive to store the images but they end
up being like 2 to 3 GBs in size. Any ideas?

Some thoughts for Paisleyskye & the MCNGP
I thought I was not going to post here again....... not so......... all of
the below is in my honest opinion and is connected with various threads here
and at icertify.net
Paisleyskye some thoughts for you
1 Your site does sell books..... you have a book store, therefore you sell
books..... Your site has adverts/sponsors so its commercial (even if it only
pays the site costs)..... nuff said
2 Some of the very reason you say you closed "the thread" on your site you
did yourself in the last post.
3 Yes your site isn't a democracy, so you can have the final say there and
only there...... sorry lost the point of it as there was so much waffle in
that last post.....
4 you say 12 pages of crap..... a lot of which was your own crap on your own
site.... good advert!!!!!
5 You say we (the posters here) should help people who can get to the MS
site/news group, but not find the info they are looking for, let me
see...... search for "MCSE" at www.microsoft.com and we get a page of links
to info about the cert, sorry these people don't need help getting a cert
they need to think for themselves and pull there fingers out of there bums
and type MCSE in a search field.
MCNGP some thoughts for you
1 Although I agree with the principle of your group calling someone who
doesn't know any better an "ASS####ER" doesn't do your cause justice,
educate the fool and the fool may learn to educate others. Being rude makes
you look like troll's, which again isn't doing you any justice [do you care,
probably not]
2 The humour curls me up..... for example the responses to "Resume Concepts"
by JaR, Jytc and Consultant.
3 I don't want to get the MCNGP lapel pin so kindly don't try [have I just
dropped myself in it :-[]

OT Wednesday fun
A shepherd was herding his flock in a remote pasture when suddenly a
brand-new BMW advanced out of a dust cloud towards him. The driver, a young
man in a Brioni suit, Gucci shoes, Ray Ban sunglasses and YSL tie, leans out
the window and asks the s! hepherd: If I tell you exactly how many sheep you
have in your flock, will you give me one?" The shepherd looks at the man,
obviously a yuppie,then looks at his peacefully grazing flock and calmly
answers: "Sure. Why not?" The yuppie parks his car, whips out his Dell
notebook computer, attaches it to his AT&T cell phone, surfs to a NASA page
on the internet, where he calls up a GPS satellite navigation system to get
an exact fix on his location, which he then feeds to another NASA satellite
that scans the area in an ultra-high-resolution photo. Then the young man
opens the digital photo in Adobe Photoshop and exports it to an image
processing facility in Hamburg, Germany. Within seconds, he receives an
email on his Palm Pilot that the image has been processed and the data
stored. He then accesses a MS-SQL database through an ODBC connected Excel
spreadsheet with hundreds of complex formulas. He uploads all of this data
via an email on his Blackberry and, after a few minutes, receives a
response. Finally, he prints out a full-color,150-page report on his
hi-tech, miniaturized HP LaserJet printer and finally turns to the shepherd
and says: You have exactly 1586 sheep." That's right. Well, I guess you can
take one of my sheep" says the shepherd. He watches the young man select one
of the animals and looks on amused as the young man stuffs it into the trunk
of his car. Then the shepherd says to the young man: "Hey, if I can tell you
exactly what your business is, will you give me back my sheep? The young man
thinks about it for a second and then says, "Okay, why not?" "You're a
consultant." says the shepherd. "Wow! That's correct," says the yuppie, "but
how did you guess that?" "No guessing required." answered the shepherd. "You
showed up here even though nobody called you! ; you want to get paid for an
answer I already knew, to a question I never asked, and you don't know
anything about my business. Now give me back my DOG. "

Study Group in Ohio
Hopefully, most of us have gotten the hang of writing "/04" on checks and
the like. So we're ready to tackle our next challenge, which would
be.certification (nope, not the mastering "ballroom dancing", which was also
on the list)!
The next Certification study group will be this coming Monday, 12 January,
from 6-8pm. We'll be meeting at Tri-C's UTC, in room 222a (we'll keep an
eye out for Pete Dixon). We meet each month on the 2nd Monday, so the next
one after this will 9 February.
There's no charge, or sales pitch or anything. Past meetings have had as
few as two people, so it's a chance for you to pick the brain of an MCT/MCSE
for a couple of hours (ok, it's my brain, so bring tweezers and a magnifying
glass).
Whether you're working on your MCSA, MCSE, MCDBA, MCSD, A+, Network+, CCNA,
CNE.<phew>.I have some study materials for you to use. Everything from
training to sample tests.
I also have some posters from Microsoft that do a pretty good job of
outlaying the difference certification paths and requirements. Free while
supplies last!
I do ask that people who plan to attend let me know what they're planning on
studying so I can fake preparing.
The meeting is sponsored by the Greater Cleveland PC Users Group
(www.gcpcug.org). I happen to President of that group as well, proving that
I have no %!$#^$ life.

Hi,
I've just joined this group (as recommended by Microsoft themselves) and I
was wondering whether anyone can help me. I will be taking "Install,
configure and administer Windows 2000 Professional (070-210)" in February
and I need to know what to expect. What score do I need to pass? If I fail,
can I retake for free? How many exams (not including this one) do I need to
become a MCSE?
Thanks,

Sorry. html newsreader needs fixing - Microsoft???
Recently, I have noticed others slamming posters for not
using carriage return. I was wondering what the hell they
were on about; every post looked fine to me.
I use the Web version of reading these newsgroups so I can
follow threads while I am at various work places. Much
easier for me.
Usually, I go to www.microsoft.com/traincert. Press
Community link on the left. Follow the link to your fave
Web Based client. Every post looks well formatted.
Now go to the old reader:
http://communities.microsoft.com/newsgroups/default.asp?
ICP=certification&sLCID=us&NewsGroup=microsoft.public.cert.
exam.mcse&iPageNumber=1
Sorry about the wrapping. (Should have used tinyurl)
If you post from here, it is a text page that is generally
more readable.
So Microsoft - Any chance you can fix this???
My aplogies for being rude and requiring that everyone
have a 100+ inch monitor set to 65536*768 resolution to
read my posts. I didn't realise what was going on.

It means you don't sell out your principles to sell a few books on your

has any financial interests than there are on your commercial website. Kudos
on your choice of a .net address to mask your profit intentions.

Larry never slammed anyone. Your moderators slammed me for a spelling

moderators resort to the same tactics as the MCNGP. If you didn't see that,
I really don't know what to say to you. It was obvious.

"- if there were, then entry-level positions would not exist for MCSE's and
every certified individual would immediately gain employment as a network
administrator. "
That is faulty logic. Entry level positions can demand an MCSE because there
are so many MCSE's. That doesn't make the job an entry level position FOR
the MCSEs. It means the market is saturated, which is also why not all MCSEs
are employed.

"However, Integrity goes farther than just preaching about the evils of
braindumps. Integrity is a part of who you are, and what you stand for. The
MCNGP has already proven their lack thereof. "
We stand up for what we believe in everyday. You stand up for your
commercial site. I wouldn't continue pursuing this integrity argument.

Yes, this guy is for real...
Hey all. Thanks for visiting my site and commenting on my certificatio
list. Its actually pretty funny that you visited my site and notice
that yes, I have a ton of certifications, but thats because I was
trainer and MADE sure I was certified in the products I taught on, onl
fair right? Why tell a student how they can train to be a Certifie
'whatever' when the trainer is not certified on anything. Damn, I hav
seen this thousands of times. Also, if you havent noticed, I spend 50
of my free time writing certification study guides for companies lik
Que, etc. Ummmm, I guess it would also make sense for me to have thos
certs too, no? Would you buy a book on an exam when the writer neve
even took it? Ok peeps, do some intelligent thinking here. Ok next,
am actually an executive in a very large company so I manage a larg
group of people... all of which I work with to get certified o
products we run.
I guess if you do the math from what I just said, you would realize
work around the clock on this crap so it would probably make sense tha
after 7 years of taking exams... I would have accumulated this much
Also, I listed out all the certs I got, in no particular order so tha
when I consult for jobs, some people know what an MCP or CNA is, bu
not a CNE.
Hey peeps, think outside the box ok?
Also, for the person who was nice enough to call me a loser because
havent taken the CCIE (and you are only an MCSA), well damn dude, yo
must not really know what that entails (if you were actually serious)
I have purchased and built a home lab for the Cisco Security CCIE an
have been working on it now 3 months. I have 9 friends who know 130
more about Cisco than I do and all have failed the lab at least once
some twice, 2 passed, all the rest keep trying. The exam just change
formats (AGAIN) and a ton of new crap was added, so more equipmen
needs to be purchased. This is why it takes sometimes up to 4 years t
get your CCIE, I have 3.5 more to go so dont rush me there tough guy.

How much study time for MCSE
Hi all, have just ordered the self paced books for the core elements of the
2003 Server MCSE and wondered how much study time you would recommend before
sitting the first exam.
I have no experience of 2003 Server but am fairly competent in a pure
Windows 2000 Server/Client environment, albeit in a small business scenario.
Also have about 4 years experience dealing with end user situations using
all OS's from 95 up to XP pro.
I have already received the 180 day trial versions and have a machine ready
for practical experience.
Any help greatly appreciated - but please no comments such as the one on
Amazon.com - 'I read the 4000 pages on a Friday afternoon and passed the
exams that evening'.
Cheers, Gary. Tag: 70-290 advice... Tag: 107480

Domain Local vs Global Groups
Can someone explain this confusion for me? I created a global group today
to assign permissions to a resource in a different domain but it wouldn;t
work, I had to use a Domain Local group for that.
Global to me means a far reaching group with more "coverage" than a Domain
Local (local to the domain) so I assumed that to permission objects outside
a domain to use Globals.
Any ideas why the naming sounds arse about face? Tag: 70-290 advice... Tag: 107328
MCSE or Bust
I need some serious advise here since I've been following this newsgroup for
about 8 months. My goal is NOT to become a paper MCSE, rather to really
learn the material and apply it towards certs and hopefully to real life
situations. As a administrator of a member server, I do not have domain
admin priveleges, which leaves me with some good experience with basic
permissions and network concepts. Wish I had access to the domains DC, but
I'm not a domain admin or have those rights.
For a year now, I've completed the class work and labs for 270, 215, 216,
217, 220, 218 towards a MCSE at a respectable IT college which has given me
good/basic foundational knowledge to sit the certs. I have just completely
the 216 and 220 classes last month which leaves me with exchange to take
this month. My goal has always been to learn so I could apply the material
and that is why I have put off the cert scene in hopes I would understand
this newly acquired knowledge so I could better apply it to real life rather
than memorizing tests, i.e. testkings! Since the 216 and 220 classes, I
feel very comfortable and ready to tackle the certs. My question to all of
you pro's is which one to start with. I've completed the 216 and 220 a few
weeks ago and have been preping for the 216, but my close MCSE friend says
to not sit the 216 for your first MCSE exam.
I have Cram Master, Boson, Cert Times, Transcenders test simulators along
with all the study guides and a library of CBT's, and the Microsoft library.
All of these resources are invaluable which give me different perspectives
and scenarios to apply and learn from.
Where do I go from here...which exam first??? Thanks guys for your
patience

Sybex "Exam Notes" Series Books
I'm enrolled in an instructor-led class for my MCSE in Windows 2000 and need
advice on supplemental material. The books and CD's provided in the class
are not fully providing me with enough specific knowledge.
I have many years of work experience and understand LAN's well, but I'm not
an expert in any OS.
I've reviewed the O'Reilly "MCSE in a Nutshell" and it is somewhat helpful,
but is missing critical key information. Therefore, I ordered the Sybex
"Exam Notes" series of books for W2K Pro and Server, due to be delivered
soon.

supplemental study guide? Tag: 70-290 advice... Tag: 107190
Help with educational route
Hey everyone, I would greatly appreciate it if someone
would help me with my problem.
Right now I'm a Junior in high school, and planning on
taking a MCSE course at my local vocational center my
senior year. I've been working with Microsoft programs
since I was 6, so I'm pretty sure this is what I want to
do. =-)
Anyways, my problem is that I don't have a clear
understanding of what I have to do in order to become MC
as a Systems Administrator. After high school I'll be
attending a community college to further this, but I've
asked numerous certified people, and I never get a
straight answer - do I need to transfer to a 4+ year
college to become an administrator or what?
Again I'd greatly appreciate it if anyone of y'all would
answer this, additional information is also welcome.

OT: Paisleyskye
Paisleyskye,
First of all I am not here to enter into the "Flame War, I am a simple
systems analyst contractor that finds all this rather amusing.
Paisleyskye, I think you need to, as the Americans say, "Chill Out". The
messages posted here which seem to be causing you so much concern are no
more than background noise, the content of which you will find within the
average office environment even in the [overly] "politically correct" UK.
While I do not care to participate to such message posting, I do however
read the harmless chitchat amongst the members of this group, much of which
makes me laugh. Granted much of which is off topic, but those people are not
criminals.
In many of your messages I have read today, you mention how people are
"TORTURED", well I see little in this group to backup such remarks. The only
"people" who are "TORTURED" are the spammers, trolls and brain dump pioneers
which together only serve to undermine the status of an MCSE. I personally
do not indulge in "TORTURING" those type worthless people, however the
people who do so have my full backing, it's a shame Microsoft does not do
more to stop the troll's, spammer's etc, etc from ruining the certification
experience for the rest of us. I took the trouble to have a look at the
article posted on the ICertify.net site, I remember many of the messages you
mention, all of which are of a humorous nature. As such, anyone who sees
those posts as anything more than people laughing and joking around should
seek help before they top themselves, they certainly would not last five
minutes in some of the offices/departments I've worked in. The only post I
saw which could be deemed as offensive was the one which questioned your
sexuality; rather uncalled for, but I understand the message poster has
apologised to you, which to me, shows a level of maturity you will not find
within a spammer, troll or brain dump pioneer. I also notice that several of
the MCNGP "members" have posted replies on at least one of the forums
maintained by you. Half expecting this "Flame War" to decent in to your own
area, I was pleasantly surprised by the constructiveness and good nature of
the replies posted by those "thugs" as you would have them known as.
One final point I will bring to your attention; you make reference to
"newbies" who are also abused. Well as far as I am aware the mcse
certification is not targeted at "newbies". There are already too many paper
mcse's in existence who achieve the title without out having any worthwhile
"real world" experience. In any case I don't see "newbies" getting abused in
the newsgroup, I do however see many idiotic messages many of which are
repeated over and over again, by people who clearly do not have the ability
and experience to legitimately become an mcse. Again this is a problem
Microsoft has not addressed, so the problem continues despite companies
saying "Please, no more paper MCSE's". In one of you messages you mention
that people have to start somewhere, well I completely agree, however the
MCSE certification is not the starting point. An MCSE needs to have more
than the ability to simply download and memorise answers to the multitude of
"practice tests" out there, the practice of which only helps to undermine
the value of the MCSE title.
Name and email withheld because I don't want to be flamed by you or anyone
else; as I'm not a "member" of the MCNGP I guess the Flaming could come from
both directions. Tag: 70-290 advice... Tag: 107157
Flatulating in test center
When sitting for exam, and under tight time constraints, do you gamble and

Opinions on Cramsession MCSE study guides ?
Hi all,
My, things have certainly changed since the old NT4 MCSE days when the
cramsession study guides were free :) I used them as a last minute recap on
the way to the test centre.
I'm not averse to paying the $7.50 fee per study guide provided the W2K
versions are as good as the old NT4 ones. I would appreciate feedback from
anyone who has tried them. Were they worth the money?
Are there are any free (legitimate) alternatives to the cramsession study
guides?
