How to tell which user installed software
by Guest Kryten- 6 replies
- 455 views
Hi, Is there a proven way of telling which user account was used to install software on Windows 2003 Server? My problem is that there are a dozen or so user accounts on the box which different ppl use. Sometimes they install updates which then cannot be uninstalled without knowing which account was used. It's trial and error to keep logging in and checking add/remove programs to see which account gets it to show up there. There must be a better way? Perhaps querying the registry? Here's hoping!

Bandwidth Monitor

We are having a problem with "something" on our network consuming all of our internet bandwidth. It is an intermittent problem but becoming a REAL problem. We suspect that the culprit may be our Windows SBS 2003. Does anyone know of a utility or tool which I can install on my server that will show specifics of what process(s) are using bandwidth, and how much? Thanks.

JdiskReport

Is there a utility like JDiskReport (http://www.jgoodies.com/freeware/jdiskreport/) available on Windows Server 2003 Standard? If not, should I install JDiskReport? One question I have is whether Java is already installed on the server. How can I tell? It is not listed in Add/Remove programs. Another question is whether I should install Java. I think not if it is just for this application. It's a great application that I use on my own computers, but I keep the server as pristine as possible, for obvious reasons.

Need help troubleshooting VSS

This is a test environment that I'm using to study for MCSA-2003. I have an eval copy of Server 2003 - SP2 on one computer. On another computer I'm running Virtual PC 2007 as the client (XP Pro SP2). Everything works fine as far as AD, DNS, Shares, etc. I have 2 hard drives in the server. On the C: volume I turned on Shadow Copy and scheduled it to run every day at 11:00am. As I write this, that was 50 minutes ago. The Shadow Copy storage location is on the 2nd drive. Under the Properties/Shadow Copies Tab, in the box for "Shadow Copies for Selected Volume" is the copy that ran at 11:00am. But, when I open a shared folder from my client PC, and c…

2003 or 2008 server
by Guest vdz- 4 replies
- 361 views
Hi all Now I have an option to choose either 2 X 2k3 or 2 X 2k8, one for DC and one for Exchange 07. I have never got hands on 2k8 and I am willing to learn too. With 2k3 I am comfortable with this. Currently we have 1x 2k3 AD DC. So please tell me what would you pick? and why? One more question: at the moment we have Lock out GPO in place and set in Domain and apply to every users including Administrator (me), we can't exclude the administrator in Wins 2k3 server, but I have been told that it can be done in Wins 2k8. Can we still exclude the adminstrator from Lockout GPO in mix environment 2k3 and 2k8? Many thanks in advance

Windows 2003 CA web enrollment question
by Guest Markus Moeller- 0 replies
- 137 views
I have setup a CA on a windows 2003 R2 DC. I can easily create certificates for IIS, but now I need to create a certificate for an Apache server. Via the CA mmc I configured that Web server templates can be issued, but when I use the Web Enrollment (e.g. http://server/Certsrv/) I can only select between Basic EFS or User certificates not Web Server certificates ? Where can I configure the web enrollment to issue Web server certificates ? Thank you Markus
