Mapped Drives in the Internet Zone
by Guest Iain- 0 replies
- 212 views
As per KB929728. We are having this issue with Windows Server 2003 SP1, including ie7. One of our applications uses compiled HTML help files on a remote server with a mapped drive. The application cannot be changed, this is not an option. I have used the registry to allow remote access to help files for the local Intranet Zone. This can be tested using a UNC path, and works successfully. When using the mapped drive in the same fashion the application would, it fails. I have tried using Internet Explorer and pasting the mapped drive path in to the address bar. Internet Explorer stays in the Internet Zone. I have spoken to Microsoft and they h…

Is there an EFS specialist in the house?
by Guest r. wales- 2 replies
- 277 views
I have been having problems with efs. While trying to sort it out, I deleted the administrator cert from the default domain policy. I have since tried to restore the ddp using dcgpofix. It errored with the message that it could not read EFS certificates from registry.pol. I am also getting application errors every five minutes telling me that the registry.pol file for the ddp in "invalid" (error id 1096, source userenv). See the Window Group Policy message board - "unable to view / edit default group policy" from 03-Oct-07 for the whole gruesome tale.

Our next Server
by Guest John F Kappler- 6 replies
- 452 views
We currently are running a Windows SBServer 2003 system which is domain controller, runs Exchange, and also a couple of SQL applications. We did ask this question on the SBS group, but got no replies presumably because it goes beyond SBS! We have 10 local users, plus 5 or so remote (accessing our Intranet or using OWA) We now have a need to allow five or so remote users to run as clients on one of our SQL applications (for data entry). We assume this would best be done by Terminal Services. We're told that SBS does not allow this form of access, and our best solution is to add another box running Windows Server 2003 just for the remote users to access. …

Batch ntbackup to external hard drives (new version - October 2007)
by Guest dderkits- 1 reply
- 299 views
Below is a new version of the backup script that I posted to USENET on 5 July 2005 (initial version) and 9 Sept 2006 (revised version). This new version can also be found at: http://www.derkits.com/apps/serverbackup.txt (be sure to change the file attribute to .cmd before using it) The version below may be affected by line wrapping. So, it is probably best to download the script from the above URI. The main improvements are: - Inserted code after the backup operations and before the robocopy operation to parse the ntbackup logs for certain error messages that will indicate a problem even if ntbackup returns a "success" errorlevel. - Under Exchange backup s…

Accessing Shares across the Network from an ASP page
by Guest RDK- 2 replies

Folks.....I have four Windows 2000 server boxes which as far as I can tell are identical. All are in the same Win2K Domain/Active Directory. All are full patched via Microsoft Update. One of these four servers is also a web server (call it Server A). I have created an ASP web page which via the "FileSystemObject" and "GetFolder" I am attempting to open a folder on each of the four servers. It works on ServerA and ServerB, but fails with a "Error Number is 76 / Path not found" error on the other two (Server C and Server D). The web server is running with the default Anonomous User Id. All four servers have identical Security Policies and the "Shari…

Hello. I am looking for a utility to monitor memory usage over time. Particularly a tool which might be able to show fragmentation. Free is best. My server will begin to slow over time and at about 30 days without reboots, it will become very laggy even though Task Manager reports no particular memory hogs or CPU hogs.

I'm trying to install Windows server 2000 (also tried with 2003) and it seems to hang at the "Windows is starting setup) screen. The server was left on this screen, however a week later, it had progressed to the black screen with the white status bar at the bottom, with the text "please wait". At this rate I might have it installed by Christmas! Any ideas ? Its a Compaq ML570.

Error Creating Mirror on Windows 2003 Server
by Guest Mike Schumann- 4 replies
- 361 views
I created a mirror on my new Windows 2003 Server system. Both disks are identical 160GByte IDE drives. When I created a mirror, I got the following error message: "Logical Disk Mgr could not update boot file for any boot partitions on the target disk. Verify your arcpath listings in file boot.ini or through the bootcfg.exe utility" I'm a novice at this and am quite clueless on what to do to make sure that if my primary disk fails, I can still boot from the mirrored drive. Any help would be appreciated. -- Mike Schumann

I have two Windows 2003 Server systems. When I open a folder on one of the servers from my Windows XP Home laptop, any changes in the folder (copying files, etc.) automatically appear. When I do the same thing on the new server, the folder only updates when I manually refresh it. Any suggestions on why this is happening and how I can fix this would be appreciated. -- Mike Schumann

My network keeps hanging up every 5 or 6 hours daily. The event ID's on the user terminal allude to a DC error. I get #15 AutoEnrollment failure followed by #1054 UserEvn (can't obtain the DC name for my computer network), followed by #1002, ApplicationHang and it gives me the exe of my application which just hung because something was renewed from the server and the workstation appears to hang. My user then reboots his workstation which takes a lot of time to reconnect to the network. Can someone give me some idea of what needs to be done? Running Win2003 server small biz server.

How to get Power Pt audio comments to play?
by Guest Neil- 0 replies
- 232 views
In a Power Point presentation, I need to insert comments for each slide. It seems that my attempts to add these comments by recording my voice were successful for each slide (I clicked on the Insert menu, then Movies and sounds, then Record sounds)--because now all the slides have the sound icon (a loudspeaker icon). BUT when I play the Power Point presentation, one only sees the slides, ones does not hear my commentary. I use Windows XP and my version of Windows Office Suite was purchased in about 2004. Many thanks to anyone who can tell me how to get the slide slow to play with my commentaries audible for each slide. Thanks! Neil

2003 Migration to new server
by Guest Ted- 1 reply
- 239 views
I am upgrading our 2003 DC with a brand new box soon. The current server is going to retire and I want to migrate all the roles to the new box. I have done this before but I wanted to see if there were any tools that could simplify what I need to do. The old box is running 2003 as the only DC in the forest with 1 domain. It is running SQL, being used as a file and print server, and running a few other proprietary apps which I can migrate easily. After I build the new server and promote and transfer roles, I was curious if there were an easier way to migrate file and folder shares and also move the printers to the new server as the old server will r…
