Q. My desktop is just sitting there on the desk and not doing anything. I want to use Windows Network Sharing to be able to back up my other computers data onto this ones. It is currently running Windows 7 and has plenty of space for storage. How can I turn it into a server that other computers can put their data onto?
A. If it just for you self , no reason why you just can't store on it? But there is always the chance of a hard drive failure, so if you thinking of trying to make a few dollars with others personal data you need to be able to guarantee it won't be lost? SSD's are hard to wipe, or a RAID configuration, chances of more than one drive failing is remote, plus it has to be secure, then it would need a backup? A waste of money to have a redundant system? Banks seem to think so , but when there system fails we all suffer? I have a spare PC that run Identical software to my main desktop,and I back up to that. It is not on the net, but I also backup to an external, so I have 3 generations of backup, 1,2 and 3 months old, not to mention a daily. I hope this helped, because this is what you would haveto do with other peoples data, but if it is just for your house, then you can be little more lax?
How can I set up my Outlook to work remotely (from home) over a wifi connection?
Q. I want to use the full features of the Outlook client, to be able to send and receive emails etc when not on the LAN. Can I do this from the client side or will I have to get the service desk at work to set it up (please say I won't have to because it will take 6 years)
A. There are many solutions I can think of, and all of them will probably be against company policy and could get you in trouble. Use at your own risk!
Ok, so here goes:
1.) www.logmein.com has free remote control software, best solution I know of. Works great!
2.) Use Windows Remote Desktop (very easy to set up, but may not work via your company's network due to firewalls)
3.) Use a commercial product called gotomypc by citrix. Excellent product, works the exact same way as logmein.
4.) Use VNC, free open source remote access server-client program, harder to set up and a little slower too... not recommended.
That's basically it.
Hope this helps!

how do I configure a gpo to restrict users from stopping the terminal services service?
Q. I am looking in the group policy management console and I cannot find a way to keep users on the domain from setting the terminal services service to manual. The problem I am running into is we have some semi Microsoft savvy software engineers that think they are doing a good thing and blocking weaknesses, the problem is when they want us to remote into their pc to fix issues we have to wait until they are at their desks to start the terminal services service.
A. Simple: Open an existing GPO or create a new one. Edit it and under Computer/Windows Security/Services set the Remote Desktop service to automatic. Further restrict it by setting who can query the service by removing the Users rights to read it. The user will not be able to change their terminal service startup. One catch is if they are able to edit the registry, they can change the startup DWORD to 4 or 2 (disabled/manual respectively). You can prevent this by blocking users from being able to use registry editing programs (GPO). Then, if they're still able to get to edit the registry, block their rights to regedit.exe and regedt32.exe (GPO). That should hold them at bay.
If that's not good enough, edit the computer configuration Computer/Windows Security/User Rights Assignment (I believe) and set the "Users that can connect to this computer via Terminal Services" to trusted users only (or none).
Finally, don't allow anyone to have local administrative rights on the computers. If you do, you're not going to be able to stop them from blocking the GPO from being applied, as they can restrict this via the registry...
