ESXi running 2 x Windows 2012 setup advice True enough! Just in case you didn't know, you might also consider Server 2012 Enterprise, as you then have unlimited VMs available on the box. We use VMWare, but we actually bought Enterprise to cover all of the VMs in VMWare just for that purpose. |

User control with Active Directory on Windows 2003 Oh goodness yes, you almost certainly want local users gone and to manage this in AD. Technically, I suppose you could set a Local Security Policy to do what you want for local users. But I'm pretty confident that is not a best-practice. |

User control with Active Directory on Windows 2003 That is correct. I haven't looked at XP in some time, but Group Policy should let you limit what programs run by Computer and/or User. |

How do I (robustly) remotely execute tasks on Windows workstations in a domain? This is the best solution as described, but the questioner should probably consider a systems management package. If management wants to prioritize ease-of-use for the tech, then it may make more sense to use Altiris, Microsoft System Center, KACE, etc. to accomplish this goal. They're more likely to give reporting that management will like (X% of workstations had program Y installed) and help the less-skilled techs. But that's a cost-benefit issue, not strictly technical. |

Local attached storage versus NAS I can't retag it, but I do think Adrian's right; this won't provide a useful answer for someone looking for Win2K8 help later. |

Local attached storage versus NAS Fair point. But I will infer that someone asking about NAS to replace 3 NT servers is unlikely to be looking at, say, high-end EMC stuff. :) |

Local attached storage versus NAS I'm not sure recommending against a RAID5 is useful with the amount of information provided. |

VMWare VMs to Data Domain storage via EMC Networker backup: Do I need a storage node? Thanks. Frankly, we've had so many "huh?" moments with our new setup that I'm happy I could help someone. It almost makes me long for Backup Exec...almost. :) |
