I have just added a new SBS 2003 premium server to my exisiting 2003 server and have assigned the new server the DC role. Eveything seemed to be ok apart from GPO that doesn't work the old server and the clients are all expecting it to come from the old DC, so I ran dcdiag and it reported that the new SBS DC does not respond to ping and gave Win32 error 11010. I have checked and I cannot ping from the command line on any client. Everything else works fine on the new DC all help appreciated. Regards PJ

Greetings, Freshly deployed server (Win2003-SP2 x64 Std). I'm having an issue where I set static IP settings for a NIC, hit OK and they are set correctly. Later when I re-open the NIC's properties, the IP settings are all showing as back to the default DHCP settings. IPConfig, registry and any WMI query or script all show the static IP information I entered is indeed being used by the NIC. Even after a reboot... static IP is in-use on the NIC, but open the network properties window of the NIC and it shows all set to DHCP. This post below describes the same issue, however their fix didn't apply. My path and system variables are correct. http://www.te…

Shared Fax

I am running the shared fax service on Windows Server 2003 R2 Standard. The environment includes 1 Windows 2003 Terminal Server and also about 50 Windows XP clients. When the clients fax from the desktop it ignores all dialing rules and uses whatever they enter. If they use an Outlook contact it too ignores the dialing rules set on the server. Is there a way to apply dialing rules to any fax sent through the server? I only ask because I need 9 to dial for a line and then 1 for any number dialed.

For a Win2K3 based PKI infrastructue, is there a third party add on to support non IE browsers for enrollment. For Example MAC / Safari ? Or can the enrollment pages be modifed which i am guessing is not possible due to the fact they use XEnroll and Active X Controls. Thanks in advance. -- Patilp

hi all, THank you for your help in advance. I am not familliar with MSMQ. But I just found out there was a MSMQ with AD Integration installed by a third party program product support. In fact, before finding this happen, there have been some strange things happening. Some of the PCs were freezing (or slow) for couple minutes some times a week. Besides, when the only a promary DC rebooted, the client lost the domain connection (but we have a secondary one running), which this never happened before. Any ideas or inputs? Thank you for your help!
