Scanning AD clients centrally for a single malicious file
by Guest M_Hood- 0 replies
- 129 views
Hi All, we have encountered a problem recently where a single malicous file called kill.bat has been running on our servers. We have some 120+ servers so it is not practical to maunually search each of these. Is there any way I can run a command, or download a program which will allow me to search all clients for this program? I know another option would be to run a script to delete this file if it is found, but I would like to know if it is on the servers before doing this (or have a record of where it was prior to deletion). Thanks in advance

I have two images on Server 2003 created with Riprep. The images are created without any problems, but when I attempt to image a new pc with the image I just created and I get the following error when it attempt to format the drive.

Can I force the client to use DNS to query the domain controller instead of NETBIOS? Or any setting I set up incorrect? Please advise. boteasy.

Hello! I have an AD and all the users have the desktop and My documents redirected to a shared folder in a server. This shared folder has VSS activated, so my users can recovered old version from his files. The problem is when i try to access to the Previous version tab in the properties dialog of a file stored in the Desktop orin My documents this tab is not there.

security log filling with events 538/540/576
by Guest Brad- 1 reply
- 142 views
We just set up a new SBS 2003 premium server and we're getting a lot of events 538/540/576 in the security log, I just counted 140 entries in 4 minutes. We have Symantec Endpoint small business 11.0 installed on the server and MozyPro (an online backup utility). Exchange, IIS, and SQL 2005 are also running and there are 6 client PCs. I've tried shutting down the services for SQL server, Symantec, and MozyPro to see if that stopped/slowed the events and that didnt seem to have an effect. Is turning off the auditing for those events the only solution? here are some sample entries: ****************************************** Event Category: Logon/L…

Can't time sync with Windows 2003 Server Std.
by Guest Calab- 5 replies
- 219 views
When I double click the clock on our 2003 server (logged in as admin) and try to sync with the Internet Time tab it always fails. I've tried several NTP servers in this box with no success. I've verified that the servers I'm using are valid, as they work on my Windows XP machines. The Windows Time service is running. I also cannot get the "net time /set" command to function: C:\>net time /set Could not locate a time-server. More help is available by typing NET HELPMSG 3912. C:\>net time /query The current SNTP value is: ntp.cpsc.ucalgary.ca time-nw.nist.gov The command completed successfully. Any idea why this isn't working?

Odd problem - Guest Account is Administrator
by Guest alec cove- 4 replies
- 250 views
Were trying to track down an odd problem. Our intranet box is Windows Server 2000. In the users, the guest account is listed, however when we view its properties it's listed as the Administrator. The guest account is a member of the Administrators group, which obviously seems like a problem in of itself. We're basically cleaning up after an old sys admin. Has anyone encountered this, and can you advice regarding the second point? TIA

Is there a Computer Object Type when using a WORKGROUP
by Guest KayP- 1 reply
- 149 views
Quick question for you. I am setting up a simple file server configured with WORKGROUP. I do not see client machines appear as computer object types like you see in AD setup. Do computer object types exist in WORKGROUP config? I was hoping to set permissions to share on server based on the client machine object and not necessarily on user level. This is because I have a service running on client machine that will be accessing the share. Any advice is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

- 162 views
I have an old Dell server, and I have lost the original media that came with the server. I am repurposing the server for a development box, and I swiped the hard drives in the process. I am trying to find out how I can either download Server 2003 R1, purchase the original media disks, or obtain a R2 key from my R1 key. I have a valid license for Server 2003 R1, and I don't want to have to purchase another license to replace my existing, valid license. Any help would be greatly appreciated! -dshj

PerformanceCounterCategory.Create() takes 3 minutes to add a new category!! If I run PerformanceCounterCategory.Create() on my development machine it only takes a few seconds. But on remotely monitored machines it takes 3 minutes! Is this because the other machines are remotely monitored? Something else? What all can make PerformanceCounterCategory.Create() take 3 minutes to add a new category??
