DFS Upgrade
by Guest Mike- 2 replies

Hello guys, I have the following problem: 2 Windows 2003 Domain Controllers(to keep it simple DC 1 and DC 2). Each DC is a DFS server with replication between. Because replication was very slow, we decided to upgrade both DC's to Windows 2003 R2, so we could use DFRs instead of FRs. DC 1: Windows Server 2003 -> in place upgrade to Windows Server 2003 R2. DC 2: Windows Server 2003 OEM -> we installed a new domain controller DC 3 with Windows Server 2003 R2 and removed DC 2. So current environment: DC 1: Windows Server 2003 R2 DC 3: Windows Server 2003 R2 (both SP2) We installed DFS on DC 1 and DC 3. Everything went fine until we started to …

Re: Print Management on Server 2003 R2

Re: Print Management on Server 2003 R2 Hi I am currently implementing Print Management on a server running Server 2003 R2 with Windows XP SP2 clients and was wondering about the following: I have added our printers to different group policies and they are installed when the users log on to their notebooks. What will happen if I change the share name for a printer or the printer name? Will the "pushprinterconnections.exe" push the changes at the next login or do I first remove the printer from the GPO so it's uninstalled from the client computer and then add the printer with the new settings? /Lasse

Hi If I configure DFSR to use 2 hours of synchronization every night, what will happen if the amount of data that needs to be synchronized is to large to get copied within the 2 hours time frame? Will it stop after 2 hours or will it continue untill it's done? /Lasse

I am using Win2K3 R2 SP2 with Symantec Backup Exec 12 with Continuous Protection that utilises VSS. Every once in a while, I get these errors in my event log along with a mass deletion of nearly all my snapshots on the volume - maybe a dozen or so: Event ID 10 Volume Shadow Copy Service information: The COM Server with CLSID {65ee1dba-8ff4-4a58-ac1c-3470ee2f376a} and name SW_PROV cannot be started.

Win2k3 SP2 - MSI Installer
by Guest Nomad- 1 reply
- 170 views
Hey Everyone I have a problem on our Windows Server 2003 Enterprise SP2 Terminal Server box where the MSI Installer (when installing / uninstalling an app) pauses for between 20-45 minutes (while using 100% of a single core, this box is a Dual Socket Dual Core Xeon 3.4ghz). After this delay the system eventually continues on with the install / uninstall and completes it successfully. However, just as the installer pauses it logs the following in the event log. ----- Detection of product '{0D20B6A8-2B82-4376-9876-C3A289C80590}', feature 'AlwaysInstall', component '{5CC2D105-DDDD-4EC4-8B74-750194E57B99}' failed.

For some reason none of our Windows 2000 Pro SP4 clients can see our DFS shares. When trying to access them I get an error either that they can't be found or that I don't have access. Is there anything I need to install or enable on these clients?

User Security Inheritance in Active Directory
by Guest Drew Govnyak- 5 replies
- 236 views
I have over 1000 users in Active Directory on a Windows 2003 in native AD mode. Some users were brought in to AD from NT 4.0 with Exchange 5.5 by the means of the AD connector. If I look at the security tab of the imported users, and click the Advanced button, the inheritance of the permissions from the parent is not checked, but any user that was copied or created from scratch in 2003 AD has the checkbox checked. Is there a utility I can run that would give me a report on who has the inheritance enabled and who does not. Ideally I would want to have the inheritance checkbox checked for all of the users in AD. Not sure if there is anything in Windows…

SBS 2003 License service is denying connections
by Guest Jeff Morgan- 1 reply
- 162 views
I have a SBS 2003 server that has the intial 5 user license. We are running exchange. I have 5 workstations in the office. When all five machines are on and using a share, the 5th one is being denied connection to the server. If I disable the licensing service, the 5th person can get on without any issues. I have searched online and have found a few things, but they don't apply to SBS 2003 running exchange. I shouldn't have to purchase additional licenses to be able to use my 5th machine. The license service restarts itself after 30 minutes, so disabling that is not a long term solution. How do I get this to count correctly and not have to buy …

W2K3: Volume Shadow Copy Slow Client
by Guest Dvord Direwood- 3 replies
- 221 views
I have two file servers which are both running Volume Shadow Copy. One is W2k3 Std and the other is W2k3 Storage. If I bring up the Previous Versions tab on a properties window on my XP client, the W2k3 Std shares come right up, showing me previous backups. The W2k3 Storage one takes nearly 10 minutes to display. Sometimes explorer even crashes on the client. Here are some of the particulars: W2k3 Std SP2 Shadow Copy on D:, 69 shares, 2621 MB out of 54723 MB, Schedule is 10 AM and 2 PM M-F. Shadow copies only exist from 5/5/08 to today (5 currently). W2k3 Storage Shadow Copy on E:, 2 shares, 32236 MB out of 67904 MB, Schedule is 9 AM and 3 PM M…

How to check the box "Show icon in notification area when connected" in NIC properties using Netsh?
by Guest Spin- 8 replies

How to check the box "Show icon in notification area when connected" in NIC properties using Netsh? Gurus, Previously on this newsgroup I had asked if there was a Netsh script by which I could set the parameters of my local NIC. There was. One must use the "netsh interface ip set address" syntax. Now, is there any way one can tell netsh to check the box "Show icon in notification area when connected"? A BIG bonus to anyone who comes up with this answer! -- Spin
