My Documents permissions in Windows 2003
by Guest davidtheweb- 0 replies

We have a terminal services environment, and everybody's 'My Documents' folder is redirected to a central location. When they log onto a Windows 2000 TS, they can right click and access the properties of that folder. When they long onto a Windows 2003, they can't right click on it. I am wondering what the permission difference could be? Thanks in advance, David

Virtual Server RC2 Commit States Help

Hi, I am a bit confused with the options presented by VS RC2. I have gone to http://technet2.microsoft.com/windowsserver/en/library/31553cbc-e514-448e-8548-73ef2142bb811033.mspx?mfr=true and still a bit confused as to which option I should use. We have some "live" data that I dont want to lose. Right know the option that is selected is: Shuts down the guest operating system and merges the undo disk with the parent disk. Which one is the right one - as before we didnt 'enable undo disks'. What I want is for it to commit all changes made to the parent vhd file. [so all data is then safe]. thanks

Xcopy from XP client trashes volume on Windows 2000 server
by Guest Ben Bazian- 3 replies
- 233 views
Here is one for the group. Wonder if anyone has heard of this. I have a Windows 2000 server as part of a Windows domain. The particular server has a large hard drive so I have my laptop users execute a batch command that xcopies modified files to a share on the server. I have one laptop that crashed the server while the xcopy was running. I believe it was copying a ..pst file. The server would not boot. Just got a blinking cursor on startup. I booted from the Windows 2000 CD and ran chkdsk. That appeared to fix the issue. Other users in the interim executed their backup without issue. On Friday I decided to try to have the user run the backup ag…

Can hidden uninstalled devices cause crasch?
by Guest RistoH- 1 reply

Hi. I have a server with alot of old hidden devices and sometimes the server crasches with a stop code 0x0000008e. I haven't been able to investigate the dump file yet because it has been corrupt to see what module or device is causing the crashes. Can the old hidden devices cause any crashes even when they are uninstalled but are still in the Device manager? The property page says this "Currently, this hardware device is not connected to the computer. (Code 45) Running on 2003 sp1

I have a one way outgoing trust and I only get this error when using an account from the trusted domain. Someties it works, other times I have to try to login a few times. When I use an account from the trusting domain, I can always get in without any problem. DNS, etc. looks OK (the trust is functioning OK otherwise. Any ideas?? Thanks

Small Business Server 2003
by Guest Tom Keifer- 1 reply
- 220 views
My SBS2003 slowed to a crawl, and I couldn't log onto the server. I had to reboot the server to get in. There was only one error in the event log, when I did a search on the faulting application name, dredger.exe, I got ZERO hits. When I searched all of micrsoftsoft.com, I got 2 hits both in DUTCH and both from the newsgroups. Why are Microsoft developers allowed to create undocumented error messages? What the hell is slowing the server down? There aren't any messages in any of the event logs that give any clue as to what is happening. Tom Keifer

I have a login script running so when users login the drives are mapped. In the last week or so suddenly instead of the four regular mapped drives users will have extra random drive letter assignments. Any ideas what might be happening? Here is the login script: net use h: /delete net use j: /delete net use f: /delete net use u: /delete net use h: \\pos-file\user\%username% /persistent:YES net use j: \\pos-file\user /persistent:YES net use f: \\pos-file\files /persistent:YES net use u: \\pos-file\alumni /persistent:YES So when a user goes into My Computer they will see: f:\ = \\pos-file\files h:\ = \\pos-file\kim j:\ = \\pos-file\user u:\ = \\p…

Hi, My network has a redirection of documents from a DFSR sharepoint, and when my users create files or folders, or delete files or folders, explorer fails to auto-refresh to show the changes they have made. I've searched google, and came up with HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Update Updatemode DWORD value, that needs to be 0 instead of 1, and I've made that change but I'm still getting the problem Any ideas Thanks, William Mann Trinity Catholic High School

Hi, I'm having a slightly weird problem. I've got a re-direct for my doucments, to a DSFR share, and when my uses delete a folder or file, or create a new folder of file, explorer doesn't auto refresh to show the changes. I've done a google search, and it came up with regedit HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Update\Updatemode as needing to be tweaked to a 0, and I've done that, but I still have the problem. Any ideas? Thanks, Will Mann, Trinity Catholic High School

Reported drive size less than half of partition space?
by Guest ayrob- 0 replies
- 182 views
Hi, I have a Windows Server 2003 SP1 server using a Raid-5 array with 8 146GB drives. There is one basic partition that is 956.91 GB, but the NTFS file system reports it as 410.09 GB. This appears under disk management. The top line that shows the volume reports 410.09 GB. The lower area with the partition information shows 1 partition of 956.91 GB. Any idea how I can reconcile this difference without wiping the drive and restoring from backup? -- Thanks, Rob

GPO works on desktop but not on notebook
by Guest Peter- 0 replies
- 191 views
Hello everybody, Got a strange phanomenon. Created a GPO (IE7_settings) which only should use SecurityZoneSettings under HKLM. In ZoneMap\Domains I added all URL's which I want to trust. And now the strange thing. In my OU, which contains desktops and notebooks, I assigned "IE7_settings" GPO. When I now log on a desktop, and visit a domain which I added to my ZoneMap\Domains, then IE7 marks it as "Trusted". When I log on a notebook and visit the same domain (URL) IE7 marks it as "Internet" I use same user on both machines for my test. With "gpresult" I already checked if both machines (desktop and notebook) use "IE7_settings" GPO. That's the case…
