Windows 2008 - DHCP - New Production Environment
by Guest 2nd Lt Cat- 0 replies
- 129 views
Hi All I will be writing in here to pass on some of my experiences with Windows 2008 RTM, MS have sponsored a project for us where a largish organisation will be deploying around 40 W2K8 servers, primarily File, Print and Network Services. I have to admit so far the migration has been going well, until DHCP, this has caused no end of grief. We are over it now, but this is important to perhaps save other people time. 1. Do not even bother to import an export from W2K3 database, they do not import correctly killing the capability to issues addresses, eventually we are now just re-creating new scopes. We experienced a few seperate issues importing the DBs a…

I am running an Nvidia Geforce 6 graphics card on Server 2003 but Nvidia do not make a driver for 2003. Has anyone found a solution to this problem. XP drivers do not work. Max res I can get is 640x480 at 4 bit so the screen is a bit large to be useful you might say.

Restore Error Message
by Guest Jill Johnson- 18 replies
- 427 views
We are running Windows 2003 Standard Edition server. We use NTBackup to schedule backup jobs. We backup the files to disk. The backup file is called "daily.bkf". After the backup is complete, we renamed the backup file as today's date. For example, we renamed daily.bkf to 20080403.bkf. Before we started to restore, we renamed the file 20080403.bkf to daily.bkf. When we tried to do a Restore, it gave the error message "Backup file could not be found or is not the file that was request". Is there a way to fix this backup file? Thank you.

CRITICAL - Random BSODs on boot
by Guest Stephen- 6 replies
- 254 views
I have a critical issue - I have a Windows 2003 Server that is experiencing random BSODs on boot. Each time, the machine boots up all the way - and if I'm quick, I can log in. But within seconds or minutes, I get a random BSOD. So far, I've seen: Stop 8E klif.sys Page_fault_in_nonpaged_area Stop 50 tcpip.sys Page_fault_in_nonpaged_area Stop 50 IRQL_not_less_or_equal Stop 0A Bugcode_NDIS_driver Stop 7C Booting in safe mode doesn't help. Neither does it help if I boot up after disconnecting the internet network cable. The server is perhaps a month behind on the Windows Update patches - so I suppose if one of those addressed a…

Users (Vista) Documents Folders
by Guest Peter Morgan- 0 replies
- 122 views
Under Windows XP using Roaming Profiles and Folder redirection for the My Documents folders, Windows creates a folder for each user under the specified share on the server. This folder, together with the appropriate security settings, was simply designated the users' name as per the %username% variable. The result of which was a shared network folder with multiple user's folders inside. As an administrator I could easily navigate to a user's redirected My Documents folder on this share and view/modify files as required. Windows Vista seems to do something a little different; as before it creates the relevant folder inside the share, but (somehow) they a…

Problem on schedule.
by Guest Mr. X.- 1 reply
- 137 views
Hello. I am using windows schedules. For some reasons one of the schedule stopped running. I was since there was a fix of summer-time (from 12:30am to 1:30am) at the same minute the schedule runs (it runs at each minute). The schedule stopped running and I think it's due the above problem. Does the schedule always write on queue or something simmiliar to queue : what is the next time running ? Is that true ? If it is done so, then when there is a problem, the schedule stops running forever, because there is no schedule to write "what is the next time running". Is there any way to overcome the problem ?

Reboot. I tnink that's all, right? Thanks.

Move user local profiles to roaming profiles
by Guest Namaste- 4 replies
- 249 views
I understand what needs to me done on the domain user account and the shared storage when creating roaming profiles. What I am confused about is if I have to use the Copy To in the user profile management on the local system to copyt the local profile to a roaming profile. I have seen a couple of MS and non-MS articles that say to do the copy or just logon the the system with the roaming profile you want to make roaming and then log out (understanding the first you had to change the user's AD account to use roaming profiles and setup the shared storage). So do ou use Copy To or does a simple logon and logout move the profile? Second question, we woul…

Printer Server and Client Drivers
by Guest Aaron- 4 replies
- 223 views
This might be a shot in the dark, but we recently created a new windows print server running on Server 2003 R2, to take over for our aged server 2000 print server. All the queues seem to work and you can print to the printers on the new server just fine. However, we have a very simple script that runs on various machines to add a default printer. This script has always worked just fine with the old server, but when we change the script to point to the new server (just replacing the server name because the print queue names are the same on both) we sometimes (NOTE I said SOMETIMES) get a script error of "The remote procedure call failed". Also, if the script f…
