Renaming domain controllers?
by Guest pez- 3 replies
- 186 views
I understand that the domain functional level needs to be 2003. What if you have a root domain (root.com) and 2 child domains (test1.root.com and test2.root.com). All domains are 2000 native. If you wanted to rename DC's in root.com, can you just raise domain functional level for root.com? Or do you need to raise all the domain functional levels?

SQL Server Express on Virtual Windows Server 2003
by Guest Maexi- 4 replies

Hi, I developed a Web Application with Visual Web Developer and SQL Server Express Edition on my local PC. Now I rented a Virtual Windows Server 2003 (from 1&1) and want transfer the files from my PC to the server. It's the first time I am doing this. Actually I do not know how to get the database transfered and what to consider with the connection string. Do I have to install SQL Server Express Edition on the Windows Server 2003 ? Or do I just have to copy the mdf-file from my local PC to a certain folder on the server ? What do I have to consider with the connection string that I used in my applications (webconfig-file) ? Many thanks in advanc…

Hi guys, For a short period we had an ftp service with anonymous write permissions enabled. during that time the notorious flashfxp and sft@loader messed around, one of which created a folder named " " (char 0x20). They access it using CWD /+/ and upload pirated software apparently. I'd like to delete the folder without reformatting the volume. Any suggestions? A scripted solution or a tool out there?

Is this possible? Am brand new to servers and their setup and it looks a lot to learn! - so any guidance will be most helpful. Thanks in advance Kevin

I have a Vista laptop user that does not want to join the domain and he wants access to a shared folder on the 2003 DC without having to join the domain. I setup a mapped drive on his desktop and checked the box to automatically login each time he reboots with admin creds. Now each time he reboots it requires him to enter in the admin user name and pw and he wants it to do it automatically. I know with my old 2000 DC and XP I could setup a user on the DC with the same name and pw as the xp user who is in a workgroup and it would pass through but will this work the same with 2003 and vista? I just dont want to show up and setup a new user only to find o…

On my Windows Server 2003, I would like to choose which desktop shortcuts are available to users. I would like 99% of the users to have all the shortcuts that are in the All Users Desktop folder, but I would like to remove these shortcuts from just a few of the users' desktops. Can I do this based on their Group membership? Is there another way? Thanks for any assistance you can provide.

Hello, I have about twenty local users on a server 2003 machne that is running SharePoint Services. the machine is being replaced and the users need to be moved. I can recreate the users on the new machine but then I would have to get them to change their password and so on. i would like to know if there is a way this can be done without the user having to do anything other than login - permissions, passwords and so on being the same? The machine is a domain member server but the users are not domain accounts.
