storage server 2003 will not shutdown or reboot
by Guest Cindy B- 7 replies
- 507 views
Help.... We have a storage server that is being preped for production and it will NOT shutdown or restart???? It is an HP storage works 600 - with MS Storage server 2003 loaded. I haven't had much luck in finding anything - What I find points to Avast virus protection - We use MaAffee- and I actaully have tried disabling that, which did not make a difference. We have teamed nics - which we have unteamed... did not help. I have all updates current, including SP2... I had to do cold shutdowns to apply these. To no avail. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!!! thanks in advance for your time and help!!! Cindy -- Cindy B

Need 2003 versions of REG.EXE and ADVAPI32.DLL on XP!
by Guest JayDee- 1 reply
- 197 views
I know this is a rather esoteric question, but... I noticed that some features of REG.EXE that exist on 2003 do not work on XP. I tracked this down to an older version of ADVAPI32.DLL and REG.EXE (08.04.2004) on XP than the newer ones on 2003 (02.17.2007). Unfortunately, copying the two files and trying to re-register the newer ADVAPI32.DLL on XP does not work. Is there any other way to get the new version of these two files working properly on an XP Professional SP2 machine? Thanks! - JayDee

Win2003 Server Help request
by Guest Steve- 1 reply
- 180 views
Tried to ask a question about Windows 2003 Server on this newsgroup previously but did not get any response. Perhaps if I rephrase my question, someone could point me in the right direction. Running a new installation of Windows 2003 on a corporate network with local machine admin rights. The machine is part of the corporate domain but I do not have access to the domain. The server is only for file sharing. Domain users can access shared folders. My desire to block write access to the shared folder for everyone except the required managers and techs is stymied by the fact that every time I try to setup a user group for the selected users, the server reques…

Anyone knows if there are any requirements for windows right management service (RMS) installation in relationship to windows certificates authority’s server “versions”. Situation We are planning to deploy RMS but our environment already have windows 2000 certificate authority servers and a combination of windows 2003 and windows 2000 DC servers. We are worry that the Windows 2000 certificate server and RMS may create issue. Yes we are planning to upgrade the certificate serves to 2003 but this may take some time.

Help giving pass through for iMac's on Windows 2003 server ISA 200
by Guest PghTech- 0 replies
- 157 views
I have a Windows 2003 ISA 2004 server. We also have a number of Mac's that don't authenticate against the proxy server at login, and therefore require authentication through the browser when they go to get on the internet. The problem we have ran into is that we have installed Adobe CS3 software which requires that it goes out and registers. Unfortunately, since this all occurs behind the scenes, there is no way to authentic and the software fails to access the internet. The only solution we can think of is to give the iMac's pass through abilities of the ISA server. Not being an ISA admin or expert can someone tell me what the best way to go about …

Program to create network schematic
by Guest news.zen.co.uk- 5 replies

Hi i'm trying to find a decent program that will visually map out my work's network (running on Windows SBS 2003) and create a network schematic with the minimum of fuss, and this for someone who has a little networking knowledge...but not much. i've tried several programs already, but none of them do quite what i want. i'm looking for something that doesn't need me to punch in all the ip addresses of the workstations and routers etc, but can work it out for itself and display them in a nice and easy to understand visual way. Can anyone recommend a program - and it doesn't have to be freeware - that will work out all the ip addys and ideally, show t…

TCPIP NDISWAN 4191 Event Error
by Guest Harry Bates- 0 replies

Server 2003 Enterprise Event Type: Error Event Source: Tcpip Event Category: None Event ID: 4191 Date: 1/9/2008 Time: 9:22:55 AM User: N/A Computer: MTNGT500 Description: IP could not open the registry key for adapter TCPIP\Parameters\Adapters\NDISWANIP. Interfaces on this adapter will not be initialized. Obviously, a lot of you have seen this error in the past. As always with Win2000, we would uninstall TCP/IP and re-install it to fix the problem (KB284955). Also, obvious is that M$ has made the IP stack a core component from Windows XP on to current OSes. A few years ago I ran into this problem and we were not able to fix the error in 2003 …

Taskbar icons
by Guest Joe- 0 replies

This is probably an old question, but I can't configure my taskbar icons the way I want them by right clicking and "customize". Yes, I hit "apply" and "OK". Their status seems to change on their own (hide, show, hide when inactive), and I have actually watched this happen while I had the menu open. How do you make Windows use your settings only?

NTFS date attribute problem
by Guest Luka Obersnu- 1 reply
- 184 views
Hi all, I just found interesting discovery while searching thru disk for files older than, for example 1.1.2007 (to free up some disk space on folders with users documents). Some of the files have date created newer than date modified. I was curious and I have also checked the files in c:\Windows directory and got the same results. I found out that this can happen on any type of file, for example doc, cab, jpeg, … We have Windows 2003 SBS R2 SP2 running on HP Proliant ML 350 G4 hardware. Is this some kind of bug, because we didn’t change date and time on our windows server since we installed it? Does someone have an explanation? Luka

NT Backup fails to run sporadically W2K3-R2

I have a strange problem with a server that I recently upgraded (installed from scratch - NOT in-place upgrade) from Windows 2000 server to Windows 2003-R3(SP2) server I use NTBackup for nightly tape backup and sometimes it just doesn't run at all.

How to enlarge the Recycle Bin size
by Guest SmartMac- 0 replies
- 178 views
I am trying to make a very large recycle bin of 50% of the available disk space on a 120GB partition on Windows Server 2003, 32-bit OS. I set the size of the recyle bins individually and made this partition have a 50% of available space for its recycle bin. Most of the space on the partition is free, yet the recyle bin only grows to just 10.7GB and starts dumping the oldest deleted files. There are about 4,800 files and 100 folders in the recyle bin now. Is there some limit on the number of files or folders that the recycle bin can hold, or is there some other explanation for this? -- SmartMac

Rate/Bandwidth limiting
by Guest Kyle Brotheridge- 0 replies
- 156 views
I've always used *nix for this purpose in the past, but this time it is not possible to have 2 seperate servers, there must be 1 server, and it must be WinSvr2K3. The bottom line is, this server will be the gateway for approx 14 clients. I'll have 2 NIC's in the PC, and I want to rate limit / bandwidth throttle every user internally from the 2nd NIC which will be the WAN connection. But I (obviously) dont want to limit every user's access to the server itself ie access to the server from NIC 1 is not limited. Is this possible with WinSvr2K3? I cant find anything on the internet about rate limiting users in Windows Server let-alone in the configuratio…
