More info?)
The machines are going into standby mode. The user must press the power
button on the machine to bring it out of standby mode. They are all members
of one Windows 2003-based domain.
In the domain is one Windows 2003 Server Standard based domain controller
acting as a file/print server as well. The domain controller was installed
using either default settings or best practice recommendations.
The machines are all Dell desktops. The first wave that I am deploying now
are Optiplex GX280 small form factor desktops.
Thanks in advance for your help,
Doug.
