Windows Powershell and WMI access to IIS application pools
by Guest theonesuperdave- 0 replies
- 196 views
I was wondering if anyone knows how to use WMI and powershell to access application pools on a remote machine? I have tried different variation of the following command: PS C:\Scripts> gwmi -class IIsApplicationPool -namespace "root\MicrosoftIISv2" - computer [servername] -credential [servername]\testaccount Each time, the command returns with, "Get-WmiObject : Access denied." I have tried both local and domain accounts for the credentials. Also, I have tried things in other posts for setting the Authentication level to PacketPrivacy, and none of this seems to get me around the access error. I have also verified that I have admin access to the remo…

I connect up to our Windows 2003 server from home via RDP. I want to be able to install MS updates and then reboot the server but I think I'll lose my connection. How can I do a remote reboot and then re-login as though I was sitting at the server entering my ctrl-alt-del and password? Thanks. David

File Server/User Profiles
by Guest marinthal- 3 replies
- 291 views
Hello! I have a W3KSP2 Server that is setup to be a file server only. User home directories are also stored on this server. Under Documents & Settings, a partial profile is being created for users. (I say "partial" because its 205kb in size and only contains: Cookies, Application Data, Local Settings and ntuser.dat) Can anyone tell me why? We do not use roaming profiles anywhere in our domain. Users do not have local log on rights to this server either. Thanks, Mari

FSRM Quotas - Rights question
by Guest Jeff- 1 reply
- 219 views
We're looking to implement 2003 R2 FSRM Quotas, and everything's been going well. However, I have been unable to find any documentation on how to (or even if its possible to) delegate rights to manage quotas on the file servers. I work in a large organization with a couple of helpdesks and over 100 distributed file servers. If the client gets a notification that they're exceeding thier quota, I would like our helpdesk to be able to validate a client's quota and possibly extend the quota if they're out of space. However, I don't want to give all my helpdesk people full admin rights on the file servers themselves... I've been unable to find any threa…

Network Scan for softwares
by Guest Yinka- 0 replies
- 172 views
Good day All, I have large network I would like to scan to find out the operating system softwares on some of them and also the microsoft softwares installed on them. On the network most users are on the domain and some are not. Also some computers have their windows firewall turned on. I do not have MOMS or SMS on my network. We are basically trying to scan to make sure we are complaint in all ways. Is there a tool that can do this even if it's a vbscript that I might need to modify? Also what limitations would I have considering that not all the computers are on the domain and the firewall issue on some? Thank you, Yinka

Replication of license information failed Event ID: 213
by Guest Bing- 0 replies
- 227 views
After I upgraded Windows 2000 domain controllers to Windows 2003 domain controllers, a lot of servers have the following warming message: "Replication of license information failed because the License Logging Service on server "Domainctrl" could not be contacted." I found a article (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/824196) regarding the License Logging Service in Windows 2003 Server.It said that LLS will not be included in future versions of the Windows operating system. Can I just ignore these warming messages or disable the LLS services? Thanks.

ever since I installed server2003 R2 stardard on my machine I have been receiving a BSOD every now and again when trying to logon to the server. Sometimes (like now!!) I am not able to logon even after many hard restrarts. Usually, after a bit of playing around, in (for no understandble reason) works again for a few weeks. If I don't try to logon, the server seems to be working just fine, (shares open, AD active etc.) When I try to logon I get the BSOD. with the following stop msg: 0X0000008e (0xc0000005 0x808bc9dd 0xb7c20914 0x00000000) I must admit, my hardware is not server built hardware, but a regular PC with strong processor and RAID Any ideas???

Hi, I am trying to sort the DNS setup. We are using windows 2003 and exchange 2003. The current setup is: Exchange Server is the primary DNS server while two domain controllers have the secondary DNS. Also funnily enough the two domain controllers have AD Intergrated reverse zones, while the primary DNS server has its reverse zone which is primary (not AD intergrated). My proposed goal is to AD Integrate the DNS. These are the steps I am taking in order to get their: 1) Go to the forward zone i.e. domain.com -> General and change the type from primary to secondary. 2) corresponding go to the domain controller.

Have run "risetup -check" after creating the images. Have now the famous groveler 8194 - USN Log overrun eventlog entries which so many people have on Windows 2003 and for which Microsoft only provides one completely outdated KB article for Windows 2000: http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=247611. They also mention a tool grovctrl.exe that is not available in Windows 2003. And the Windows 2000 Version of the tool does not work on Windows 2003. Since December 21th…

The permisions on the share are set to everyone Read Write etc. and the file security is the same. if I input my username and password it will connect but for some reason it is prompting me. Almos…

I am having a permissions issue right now that is giving me fits. I have a test application right now that allows me to upload a video file to the server. After upload of the video, the file is converted immediately using Windows Media Encoder. The video file is initially uploaded to a temp dir on a seperate file utility server. The web app and encoder reside and run on the webserver. Now here is the problem: I currently impersonate a user who has admin rights on both boxes (atleast while testing) the user has the same password and same rights on both servers. When I log in with my own seperate account and attempt to run the webapp I can upload the f…

Hello, I'm having a request come in my way to audit a file share location on our network where some SQL Server Reporting Services reports are being written to. We extend different set of reports for different clients and some of these reports are scheduled to be written to the file share as excel files. We would like to audit who is accessing those folders and how many times etc. Is there any way to log them to a different log file other than the default files (Event Viewer), so that we can build a report on top of this information? Hence I would like to know from peers in this area whether they have any solution with respect to such type of audit in…
