domain member server problems
by Guest ACE-Joe- 0 replies

I have an NT4 server running Exchange 5.5 in a Server 2003 interim mode AD domain. Just today, the server started experiencing issues that make me think its related to the computer account or secure channel between the server and the domain. When I try to start services sch as Exchange services, which run under a domain account, I get error: 2140 An internal Windows NT error occurred. If I reboot, I get the same issue. I checked DNS, and I'm only using internal DNS servers. I have my hosts and lmhosts setup just fine with all the proper entries which worked fine for years and has not changed. I am thinking about joining the server to a workgroup an…

There is a PC named "pcname-01" in my LAN, there are several shared folders. I can use "\\pcname-01" to see all of them. What I want to do is to map it as a network drive. However I can only map to a specific folder, like this "net use \\pcname-01\sharefolder1" Is there a method to map all the shared folders? Just like I type "\ \pcname-01"

changing the domain of a windows NT server?
by Guest Edward Letendre- 2 replies
- 511 views
I have a bit of a confusing problem for myself. I have a windows NT 4.0 server that I am looking after, as the administrator is long gone. This particular server was part of a domain called ATS. The domain controller for the ATS domain quit working a few months ago and there was no backup domain controller (bad design I know but that is the way it was setup before I got there). Anyway, the only computer left in the ATS domain is the atsadmin server that I want to move to a different domain called SQL2. On the atsadmin computer, there is a SQL Server 7 database that is usually stopped and also an IIS server that seems to be disabled at the moment. The…

re earlier thread i checked my win-NT4 NTFS version (i never did service pack 4; just 3,5,6a) http://thinkpads.com/WinXP_Comments1.htm (instructions for using dskprobe to determine NTFS version - makes brain surgery or rocket science seem trivial) 2nd line after the 70 line was 01 02 so my NTFS is still 1.2 ?? these might help?

Microsoft's Internet Information Services (IIS) has come a very long way since its beginning both in terms of stability and performance. IIS 6.0, which is the latest and greatest version of IIS, rolls out with Windows Server 2003. How does it compare with earlier versions?

Convert user from workgroup to domain keeping settings
by Guest poppet- 1 reply
- 440 views
We had a new server installed some 7months ago at which time we converted from all users from belonging to a workgroup to a domain. When this was done I recall the tech guy going round each workstation logging onto domain, changing a registry setting which enabled them to retrieve the old settings they used to see when logging on as their old logon when part of workgroup. Does anyone ever remember using this tweak? I need to add another pc to domain which didn't get done @ time of change which currently has lots of programs we can't afford to loose so really would appreciate if someone could help Pete

Server not recognized
by Guest RonC- 2 replies
- 467 views
I have an NT 4.0 computer acting as the domain controller and file server for a small network (4 computers). Only one domain involved. I am trying to install this hard drive into a faster computer. When I do, although the OS boots up and logs on to the domain, the domain cannot fully recognize the file server. WINS Manager sees the server computer name, so does NT Diagnostics, but the Server app in Control Panel shows no sessions, Network Neighborhood shows the domain but no server, and any attempt by other computers to access shares on the server fails. What can I do to resolve this?

NT 4 machine hard drive trouble
by Guest Penny- 8 replies
- 597 views
I have an NT 4 machine that suddenly won't boot. I tried repairing the NT installation but the machine doesn't see the hard drive. Does anyone know if it's an option to slave the hard drive to another machine with a different OS to attempt to get files off of it? I don't have another NT machine available. Then there's running chkdsk I've got a windows 2000 machine I can slave it too, would that work?

Correct drive letter after an image restore?
by Guest Sven Berg- 1 reply
- 425 views
After I restored an partition image of NT onto a new PC, the restored system assignes a different drive letter to itself than originally. As a consequence, its boot process does not even procede to the desktop display. Unfortunately, http://support.microsoft.com/kb/223188 applies only to w2k or later. Now, what can i do to get NT back to the original letter? Possible registry changes by regdt32 would not be a problem. Thanks, Sven

bat file access denied on nt server
by Guest txodo- 0 replies
- 415 views
I have a batch file which is a simple xcopy of files from a workstation running xp pro to an nt server on our domain. Every time the batch file is run, the file copy fails with "access denied". If the user on the same workstation simply uses explorer and highlights and drags the files to the server, it works just file. I have given the user full rights to the folder she is copying to but I am assuming I am missing something in giving her rights to copy by using a batch file. Any way to solve this apparently simple problem. The user on the xp workstation is logged in as a user on our nt domain. I would like the batch file to work as I am not sure I would t…
