After upgrading our DHCP and Term server from Sevrer 2k to server 2k3 our existing terminal services users stared getting the following error: "To logon to this remote computer you must be granted the allow logon right. By default members of the remote desktop users group have this right. If you are not a member of the remote desktop users group or another group that has this right, or if the remote desktop user group does not have this right you must be granted this right manually." The other users that were on another term server that already had win server 2k3 were not affected. If we add Domain Admin to their member group they are able to logon, but of …

IE: if i go into the LM computer section of the registry and remove the entries.. then run gpupdate /force .. it pops the two entries back in place, not the new server name and port (other machines are fine).. Also.. if i do an rsop.msc from this machine.. i can see that the GPO policy for auto updates is being applied.. however, there is an error.. on the error information tab i have under component name: Registry and status failed.. error is "registry failed due to error listed below.

255 character path
by Guest mich- 1 reply
- 163 views
With the 255 character path plus file name limit is there any plug in or software that will allow a network admin. to search for all files that violate the limit? The server will allow you to create a file that violates the limit, but then you cannot rename the file, or access it without renaming the above folders to a shorter name to get under the limit. I'd like to smoke out all of these violations and address them at once instead of stumbling across them one at a time. I have made the users aware of the limit, but we all know that doesn't stop them from doing it again and again. Thanks!

by Guest Scott- 0 replies
- 145 views
Using R2 SP2 with disk quotas, when reports of large files and least accessed files are sent to users who hit the warning threshold, can the defaults of 5.00 MB and 90 days be changed? I would like to use 20 MB and 365 days. If so, how. They don't appear to be configurable within the File Server Resource Manager interface.

Cannot connect to domain
by Guest Wabos- 3 replies
- 256 views
Wierd problem. Had a power failure, after which one on the workstations gets the message "Cannot connect to the domain, either because the domain controller is down or otherwise unavailable, or because the computer account was not found". Have rebooted server, router, hubs, etc with no success. Obviously no settings were changed and the computer in question is still listed in the domain so not sure where to look. The computer can access the internet so feel that the issue is not 'network' related but am at a loss. Thanks!

Server failing and rebooting
by Guest Jamie- 3 replies
- 198 views
I made a post already about this problem but it will not allow me to post replies on the updated situation so I will start again: I have a windows small business sever 2003 service pack 2 that is rebooting almost daily. It reboots around 5-6am almost every morning. There is no backups or scheduled tasks running at this time or user activity. The server would be at its least active time. The UPS logs show nothing strange but the problem has only been occuring the last month or so. All that is recorded in the event viewer is: Event ID: 1076 The reason supplied by user DOMAIN\Administrator for the last unexpected shutdown of this computer is: Syste…

WSUS Duplicate Issue
by Guest admintgal- 0 replies
- 211 views
I'm not sure if there are any WSUS experts out there, but I'll give it a shot. We are running WSUS 2.0 and we are running into a situation where duplicate machines are being created the WSUS admin consoles. I've been consistently reading that this is due to the susclientID registry key and imaging. I guess I just don't understand how this is issued or whatever, but could someone explain to me the process of communication between a client and WSUS and how this ID is issued, and how duplicates could possibly occur? Thanks in advance.
