2008 server install with only AD setup is over 11G
by Guest Paul Ableman- 3 replies
- 325 views
I've just received a 2008 server for a client that already has 12G of OS data on it. I was hoping to create an emergency backup onto a DVD after I get things configured; however, I'm not willing to span 3 DVDs. What can I remove to get the install down under 4G? I'm very surprised/disappointed that with little/nothing configured or any data moved over to the server that I've got nearly a 12G footprint JUST for the OS. Any suggestions? Thanks,

RE: AD User Profile changes intermittently Please check if your AD environment has many Domain controllers. All the domain controllers need to be in Sync. To find out which domain controller is the PC connecting to, go to the command prompt and type Set to find out the logon server information. Hope this helps!!!

SAFEBOOT registry subkeys missing, can't boot into safe mode

Hi: Windows 2003 Server, can't boot into safe mode. Upon further inspection, subkeys for SAFEBOOT are missing from HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\SafeBoot registry. That is, not even Minimal nor Network keys are present. ContolSet002, ..., ControlSet004 are either missing SafeBoot key entirely or the subkeys as above. 1. What is the procedure to restore these keys, short of a reinstall of the opsys? 2. Any idea how this could have happened? If a virus/trojan, I didn't seen anything suspicious under run/runonce (cursory inspection). Thank you in advance for your help. -- Roy Zider Used ERD Commander 2005 for boot.

Low Disk Space on Server 2003 SP2
by Guest master_yoda- 3 replies
- 332 views
Existing server at the company I am at was set up with a 12GB C partition and is down to less than 4GB. I have tried cleaning up as much as possible, but I am barely above 4.5GB now. Much of the disk space being used is in the service pack and update un-installation folders located under the Windows folder, all the names are preceded with a $. Are these safe to just highlight and shift-delete, or is there a safe way of removing or archiving them. I have plenty of disk space in other partitions. On the same note, are there any reliable utilities out there for safely re-sizing a running C partition on a 2003 server? Thanks!

In the last couple of weeks, services on some of my Windows 2003 servers have been failing. If I change username\domain to username@domain, they start and stay running. Is anyone aware of articles discussing the difference between using username\domain and username@domain?
