Internet Explorer Page setup
by Guest ray3d84- 0 replies
- 194 views
I am running windows server 2003 RC2 with citrix 4.0 installed. I have configured my Internet Explorer page setup with margins set to 0.75. Yet when my users log in to a citrix session and try to print it does not keep the margin settings. If I login locally to the server with each user account and the configure it keeps the correct settings. I would like to know how I can setup the settings so I do not have to login locally for each account. In other words I want that when any user logins in the session it automatically defaults to the 0.75 margins. ray3d84

Printer sharing
by Guest pavel- 2 replies

Hello, I'm having a problem setting up a network printer. Here's the situation: Server A is directly connected to the internet (Router A) and is running Windows 2003 Server. Router B is connected to the Router A. Printer A is connected to the Router B. Client 1-X are connected to the Router B. Server A and the Clients 1-X are all in the same VPN. Clients 1-X connect through the remote desktop to remote Server B, where they need to use the Printer A (in an app running on the Server B). The problem is, even if I connect the Server B to the same VPN as Clients 1-X are in, it fails to find the printer. The Printer A is properly installed and sharing is …

windows time is not accurate
by Guest Tigger- 2 replies
- 260 views
I have a windows 2003 server which is our domain controller. The time on the server is slow by about 8 minutes to the correct time. This in turn would cause the clients that login to the domain to be off also. How do you fix the time on the server so it is the correct time? Does the server sync with an external source?

WSUS Question after transferring to new server (Master or Upstream
by Guest Saral6978- 9 replies
- 526 views
I successfully set up a new Master server and now have my replicas sync'ing successfully after I ran through the export/import process of transferring the WSUS content from my original Master to my new one. However, there is one slight issue. When I log into the new Master/Upstream server, it basically says all updates need to be approved for installations, rather than where I had left off before the switch. Even if I do a sort for the last 2 months, it still brings up all the updates (going back years), which are like 1100+ updates. Is there any way to import the approval information from my original master server to the new one so it knows that I have i…

Adding hardware drivers to an existing install of windows.
by Guest Chris McKean- 0 replies
- 167 views
I have the following scenario with a Windows Server 2003 with SP2 server: If I need to use Symantec Ghost to transfer the data from one server machine, into a new machine of a different model, then the usual hope is that enough drivers are there that the machine will at least, boot up, and then missing ones can be installed. Unfortunately, the old machine does not contain drivers compatible with the new machine's RAID (Intel Matrix Strorage Manager) system. I need to avoid using something like sysprep for adding in the driver, as I need to maintain the install exactly as is. So I see two options: - Is there a way I can add these into the existing installatio…

A question for you server builders
by Guest dan- 0 replies
- 170 views
I'm getting ready to build a new server, from scratch. This will be for my test lab so it won't be mission critical but obviously I want it to be highly reliable. I'm pretty well set on the specifications for the server, but when it comes to the motherboard it looks like I have the choice of several manufacturers. Does anyone out there have any advice for me on server motherboard manufacturers that are highly recommended, or should be avoided? What's most important to me, beyond the feature set obviously, is a reputation for high quality, and technical support if needed. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks.

Hi, I got to looking at some of the log files on my WS2003 system. The file FrameWork.log in the directory C:\WINDOWS\system32\wbem\Logs has about 17Megs worth of lines that have this in them: Shell Name Explorer.exe in Registry not found in process list. 02/05/2008 21:27:51.941 thread:4556 [d:\nt\admin\wmi\wbem\providers\win32provider\common\implogonuser.cpp.1019] Unable to locate Shell Process, Impersonation failed. 02/05/2008 21:27:51.957 thread:4556 [d:\nt\admin\wmi\wbem\providers\win32provider\common\implogonuser.cpp.1027] This apparently has been going on for a long time.

Looking for recomendation for book to learn Powershell
by Guest Mike O- 4 replies
- 408 views
I am looking for a book about using Powershell on a Windows 2003 A/D system. I'll be initially using it in an Exchange 2007 environment at first , but I would like to be able to use it for non-Exchange tasks. I've been a Windows admin since Win 3.1/DOS days, and I've done a little VBScript, and have some programming background, so I'm not starting totally at the beginning. I've been to the "Updating your Exchange 2003 skills to 2007", so I have done a little with the Exchange command shell, too. I did some general internet searching, and have seen a lot of different books, but at $40-$50 each, I'd like to get some recommendations before I buy one. …

Attempted to open LSA policy, threat?
by Guest Brock Hensley- 0 replies
- 187 views
Source: LsaSrv Event ID: 6033 An anonymous session connected from DESTRUCTOR has attempted to open an LSA policy handle on this machine. The attempt was rejected with STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED to prevent leaking security sensitive information to the anonymous caller. The application that made this attempt needs to be fixed. Please contact the application vendor. As a temporary workaround, this security measure can be disabled by setting the \HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Lsa\TurnOffAnonymousBlock DWORD value to 1. This message will be logged at most once a day. I've been seeing this lately on a few different servers. Can anyone…
