by Guest Trecius- 1 reply
- 188 views
Hello, Newsgroupians: I have a Windows Server 2003 computer that we're using in our department. It has two NICs. NIC1 connects to the main network of the facility. We use NIC2 ONLY for our department. I am trying to setup the server to act as a gateway between the two networks. Therefore, I am using Microsoft's NAT wizard to create the gateway. Therefore, if anything that is not on the same subnet of our "localized" network will be passed onto the "main network" through NIC1. A small ASCII depiction: COMP1 192.168.1.100 ---- | COMP2 | NIC2 NIC1 192.16…

Hi all, We are thinking about archiving old files from our fileserves to cheaper storage. To check whether this is usefull I would like to see how many files (for instance older then 1 year) we have on our fileserver. So I just need a very simple tool (or something) which scans a partition I choose with the settings I set and then tells me how much GB is not modified in (for instance) 1 year. does anybody know such a tool? (extensive search didn't give me a result:( Regards, Mike van Gestel

Windows Deployment Services How can sysprepped machine be captured if it has RAID card?? Through Server2003 sp2 running Windows Deployment Services, I can capture and deploy XP and Vista Images on machine that DO NOT have a RAID controller. I do not have and previous RIS legacy images. Several of my machines have RAID controllers and when attempting to capture, the "choose what volume" never populates. I assume it's because I need to somehow add a driver in some file. How do I get a capture image prepared to load up and capture a sysprepped "client" machine that has a raid controller controlling the drives? Do I somehow use the boot.wim or captu…

I have several machines that have RAID controllers and when attempting to capture, the "choose what volume" never populates I assume it's because I need to somehow add a driver in some file.

RAID 5 on Windows Server 2003
by Guest diegoarbe- 2 replies

I know this has been talked about a lot! But I have a question that hasn'y been answered in the forum. Windows Server 2003 Specifications state that i can use ANY attached drives to make my RAID, being 0 1 or 5. So... can I use external hard drives to make this work? I know it is not the BEST solution, but I would like to recycle the material I have. The short story.... We are setting up a Single Windows Server 2003 for our needs, in the past we didnt use a server because we've grown fast and hardware was not planned. Every person has their own Western Digital MyBook external drive, 500Gb each... 8 Total. if I wanted to use 4 of these to make a RAID 5 is…

Slow network file copy in VSS enabled volume

Hi, Here's my problem: we have a server with tons of drives and partitions C..H. each partition is about 500MB operating system is Windows 2003 x64 SP1. Most clients are non-windows laptops connecting via SAMBA. We never had issues, but recently we enabled shadow copies on partitions F and G; we noticed that when clients perform a large file transfer (say, a 700 mb file), the transfer rate is as fast as usual, but the progress bar on the client pauses near the end, it stays there for a long time (e.g. 1 minute) and eventually it finishes ok, the file has been written correctly. In the "idle" time the server has moderate cpu activity (say 10%) and some I…

This later server is the one missing the counters. Below are the Objects that are missing that…

Changing passwords

I would like some advice i have a VPN connection between my company and another part of the company that has its own domain. My company has an Exchange environment that the other company uses. This has not been a problem up to now as the users have an account in our domain and they authenticate when they connect via Outlook. We are now forced to roll out complex passwords and this has the issue of all the users existing passwords have expired and hence can no longer logon as they get an error informing them that they can not change their password and they should connect to the organisations domain. Options available to us i presume are create a trust …
