Hello, If this is not the right user group please point me to the right one. I moved my .Net 1.1 application to Windows 2008 Server and it only works for Administrators and not regular users. It has to do with access to Microsoft.ApplicationBlocks.ExceptionManagement I think When we installed Microsoft.ApplicationBlocks.ExceptionManagement we did this for everyone and not the Admins only. The error message I am getting is: myApplication.exe Has Stopped working. Description: Stopped working Problem signature: Problem Event Name: CLR20r3 Problem Signature 01: myApplication.exe Problem Signature 02: 2.1.0.0 Problem Signature 03: 47755e77 Problem Si…

I am getting the following message this server and this server has been on the domain for a while and was able to log in usually. But now its getting this message Windows cannot connect to the domain either because the domain controller is down or otherwise unavailable, or because your computer account was not found. Please try again later. If this message continues to appear contact your System Administrator for assistance. other machines can log in fine. Any idea why? This happened to a few other machines yesterday.

Auto Shutdown and Restart
by Guest John- 4 replies

Planning to schedule my Windows Server 2003 to auto shutdown and restart (just one time) during non business hour. I'm going to use Task Scheduler to accomplish this. I've never done it before so I have a question: what is the command? C:\Windows\System32\Shutdown.exe -r is that sufficient? Do I need to provide reason for restart? Credentials to run the command? Thanks.

"Password Complexity" -bitch to remove.
by Guest Anteaus- 3 replies
- 297 views
One of the things I detest about 2003-on Server is that "Password Complexity" policy which is forced upon you as soon as you load the AD. People who put this policy on obviously hadn't got their brains in-gear that day, as they failed to consider the problems it causes when importing users from an existing server, or when installing a server on a site which ALREADY has a different password policy in-force, and with which this conflicts. Perhaps the daftest aspect is that despite this piece of paranoia there is by default no password-lockout policy, allowing an intruder an infinite number of tries at a password. I would have thought that a default loc…

IT SLA's?
by Guest dm3281- 0 replies
- 179 views
Hi -- I know this might not be the correct foum, but I was hoping I could get some help. I need to create an SLA for our server environment primarily for our internal departments. Basically, we receive frequent requests to build new servers that may or may not require hardware purchases, software purchases, etc., in addition to laptop deployments etc. Typically, the turnaround is weeks to months depending on the nature of the request. To provide a baseline and guidinance to everyone, I wanted to set the expections so everyone knew that a particular request would take at least x number of days/weeks/months for turnaround. Most of the requests I ge…

Windows server 2008 - What theres no tape backup!
by Guest w-cubed- 8 replies
- 528 views
Yes what a shock I sold a new Windpows Server 2008 with a tape unit in it. Only to find no NTBACKUP and the new Backup product just does not do Tape. I have not been seeing this huge change in any press releases I have hunted around and I cannot find an affordable or practical replacement for the LTO4 tape backup unit. What else streams at 120MB/s and stores 1.6TB of data? It needs to be at under $200 a unit and I need at least 30 backup devices to support the backup program policy in place. I am for the first time in 28 years in the computer industry having to source a third party backup tool to backup a server. This is wrong very wrong! I h…

- 167 views
I had a quick question as I haven't found an easy or great way to do this yet. I want to take an existing Windows 2003 server install that is on a single hard drive and make it a mirrored install. Is there a way to do this without reloading the system? I want to add a second drive of the same size and just mirror it with the currently installed drive if possible. THanks for any ideas in advance.

I am not able to remove the read-only settings for folders created under the d: partition. I am trying to create a shared folder in which network users can create and share documents. However, network users are not able to save into the sahred folder even though I have given full access to 'Everyone', or even if I give full access to a specific user. I have tried modifying the registry and using the attrib command and the read-only setting still has not changed. Please provide assistance as to how to remove the read-only access.
