DHCP Issue
by Guest KDawg44- 0 replies
- 502 views
Hello, We have three scopes set up, subnet 1, 2, & 3, on a single DHCP server. We have a VLAN for each subnet. However, if a machine moves from an office on subnet 1, to the conference room on subnet 2, the machine holds the old subnet 1 address. It will not give up the address on reboot, disable/reenable the NIC, release/renew, anything. The only way to get the address to be given up and get an address on the new subnet it to manually go to the DHCP server, delete the lease, set a static address on the NIC on the machine and ping, then set the NIC back to DHCP. At this point it will get the correct address on Subnet 2. Then this must be repeated when…

How do I specify the <Component> for diskshadow?
by Guest Michael B. Smith [MVP]- 0 replies
- 518 views
I am attempting to use diskshadow.exe on Windows Server 2008 RTM. My question is specifically with the "writer verify" and "writer exclude" commands. The technet help at http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc771649.aspx is fairly non-specific. It tells me that the syntax is “writer exclude [<Writer> | <Component>]” and that “Writers are specified by ID.“ But it doesn’t tell me how to specify <Component>! For example, I can get the writer ID from “vssadmin list writers”. No problem, and that works great. As an example: writer exclude {542da469-d3e1-473c-9f4f-7847f01fc64f} works fine. To get the components, I go…

I had this issue until I used the /silent switch on the batch file. Open the properties of your scheduled task and put a /silent switch on the end of your RUN command.

We have added a hash rule to software restriction policy to "disallow" user from executing the Window Live messenger (msnmsgr.exe) However, we would like to allow certain group of people (ie: Customer service colleague) to run the Live Messenger, so I created an OU, then add another hash rule to msnmsgr.exe and set it to "unrestricted", and then put all customer service colleague in that OU. But I found that this does not work, it seems that the OU's "unrestricted" rule does not override the Default Group policy's "disallow" rule. And now all the customer service colleague cannot access Live Messenger. Would anyone can help on this ? thanks

Task Planer - Behaviour Windows 2000 and 2003
by Guest Mike Hansen- 0 replies
- 511 views
Hi, I created a Scheduled Task on Windows 2003 Server. Sometimes I have to start the Task manually in a RDP Session. The Task is starting a simple batch script. When I start it manually the Script is running in the DOS Box. While it´s running I´m logging of my session. Then the task is stopped with the following Error Code: c000013a. When I do the same action on a Windows 2000 Server the task is still running when I log off from the session and when I re-logon. Anyone has a suggestion to get the same behaviour on Windows 2003 ?

Thread Monitoring
by Guest LCermak@branick-inc.com- 0 replies
- 470 views
We have a distributed application that uses IIOP to communicate to an application server (EAServer) running on Windows Server 2003 SP1. We are trying to understand how the servers allocate threads for processes and if there are any tools to monitor the threads that are being created and used by windows. We think that at some point client requests are waiting for a thread to become available. How can we monitor threads and their status? We have gone thru many many tests to believe that the server waits for threads to become available. We have verified that the connection is established from the client to the server and then may wait if the condition above appea…

In one of our domains we run WINS to support Windows 98 machines. Recently, WINS stopped working and I have come to the end of my rope trying to figure out why. What I am seeing is: In System Event Viewer - Event ID: 4102 The connection aborted by the remote WINS. Remote WINS may not be configured to replicate with the server. (Getting this message on the forest level DC and on each local DC) Replication on each DC setup to push/pull per Microsoft standard instructions.

RRAS Dial-up and Internet access
by Guest Troy Bruder- 0 replies
- 480 views
Hello, When connected to the internal network, our users receive a proxy server configuration for internet browsing through our ISA/Surfcontrol server. Works great. When they dial-in (yes, we still have some dial-in users!), they get an IP address and can access our servers with no problem... BUT, they can also directly access the internet without routing through our ISA/Surfcontrol server. How do I force their Web browser traffic through our ISA server? I created a static route 0.0.0.0/0.0.0.0 -> ISA Server IP Address... but that didn't work either? troy

file compare fails...
by Guest ngan- 0 replies

I have a HP server with four 500GB hard drives. I completely re-did the arrays we would have two arrays: 1. two hard drives are raid 1+0: 100GB is partitioned as C drive and the other 400+GB is partitioned as E drive 2. two hard drives are raid 0 and partitioned as F drive When file comparing two files on the F drives, it works, regardless of the file size. When I do it on C or E, the file compare works for file size under 1GB, but fails if it's over 1GB. We had this problem with the previous install of the OS. We've replaced several hardware stuff like CPU, memory, controller. We even did hard drive diagnostics and didn't find any issues. what…

by Guest John- 6 replies

I am using WSUS to push updates, and recently have had on Office update that requires the end user to accept an EULA thing, yet it doesn't take the accept. It keeps popping up. It appears to go away with admin rights. I do not want to have to visit each one of these machines with the login out... required. Is the a fix for this so the user can accept it or it is done from the server? I posted this under WSUS group but haven't seen an answer.

Hi all I am sure the bulk of the questions behind this topic are concerned with how to turn it off. But we print over a WAN and I need to ensure the successful print popup window appears for users who print to remote printers in other geographical locations. 1. I use HP printers everywhere with internal jet direct cards. 2. On both my Windows print server and the advanced print properties on each terminal server i have the following set under print properties>advanced tab: "Show informational notifications for network printers" and "Notify when remote documents are printed" Is there any other setting that could override these settings? Are the …

Hello In Windows 2003 Server users can also be put into one or more groups. By putting users into these groups the users may inherit permissions and privileges that were not granted to them directly. If asked to administer user accounts to an existing Windows 2003 Server installation how would one track down all of the groups that a user account belongs to and how would one know what all the permissions and privileges are that the user inherited and were assigned directly? -- JB

ntbackup missing tapes
by Guest Hector Cruz [H&PCS]- 0 replies
- 462 views
Hi, I have a Win2003 Small Business Server, and want to restore a set of 2 tapes with only the firts tape (the 2nd is missing). When I try to catalog the 1st tape, at the end appears a message telling me than insert the next tape. After I press "cancel" no catalog (partially) was restore. Does any one knows how to restore a partially catalog to recover some information from the tape? I think it could be possible becase in NT4, ntbackup has /missingtape switch that makes to read the catalog from the available tapes from the set. In Win2K Srv that switch does not exist, but works as is. (Document ID : 244805: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/244805/…

warning 4515 (source: DNS)

Below is the warning message i got in the event viewer of my DC1: The zone 1.168.192.in-addr.arpa was previously loaded from the directory partition MicrosoftDNS but another copy of the zone has been found in directory partition ForestDnsZones.unicem.com.ng. The DNS Server will ignore this new copy of the zone. Please resolve this conflict as soon as possible. If an administrator has moved this zone from one directory partition to another this may be a harmless transient condition. In this case, no action is necessary. The deletion of the original copy of the zone should soon replicate to this server. If there are two copies of this zone in two differ…
