RRAS Dial-up and Internet access
by Guest Troy Bruder- 0 replies
- 471 views
Hello, When connected to the internal network, our users receive a proxy server configuration for internet browsing through our ISA/Surfcontrol server. Works great. When they dial-in (yes, we still have some dial-in users!), they get an IP address and can access our servers with no problem... BUT, they can also directly access the internet without routing through our ISA/Surfcontrol server. How do I force their Web browser traffic through our ISA server? I created a static route 0.0.0.0/0.0.0.0 -> ISA Server IP Address... but that didn't work either? troy

file compare fails...

I have a HP server with four 500GB hard drives. I completely re-did the arrays we would have two arrays: 1. two hard drives are raid 1+0: 100GB is partitioned as C drive and the other 400+GB is partitioned as E drive 2. two hard drives are raid 0 and partitioned as F drive When file comparing two files on the F drives, it works, regardless of the file size. When I do it on C or E, the file compare works for file size under 1GB, but fails if it's over 1GB. We had this problem with the previous install of the OS. We've replaced several hardware stuff like CPU, memory, controller. We even did hard drive diagnostics and didn't find any issues. what…

Windows 2008 Print Server
by Guest LilDeb- 5 replies

Hi There, I hope I am posting this to the right board.... We are slowly starting to introduce Server 2008 into our environment. One of the projects I have been assigned, is to decommission our Print Serve Appliances, and migrate them over to the 2008 environment. I have done some reading on this and know that I can assign the print server role, manually add the printers or have them automatically discovered, create the shares, update the drivers, etc….. My question is this: How many printers can one server manage? We are not a large environment, and have approximately 160 servers. Currently we have 4 print serve devices that are divided based on flo…

I installed Windows Server Backup and have the following situation: When I run anything but scheduled backup, I am provided a window showing local devices to back up the files to. When I select Scheduled Backup and select the files to be backed up, I get an error msg stating there is no local drive to back the files up to instead of the Local Drive option screen. I've tried it several times and can't seem to figure out what is going wrong. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks. KenP

ntbackup missing tapes
by Guest Hector Cruz [H&PCS]- 0 replies
- 454 views
Hi, I have a Win2003 Small Business Server, and want to restore a set of 2 tapes with only the firts tape (the 2nd is missing). When I try to catalog the 1st tape, at the end appears a message telling me than insert the next tape. After I press "cancel" no catalog (partially) was restore. Does any one knows how to restore a partially catalog to recover some information from the tape? I think it could be possible becase in NT4, ntbackup has /missingtape switch that makes to read the catalog from the available tapes from the set. In Win2K Srv that switch does not exist, but works as is. (Document ID : 244805: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/244805/…

RDP Not Working since installing patch MS08-067
by Guest Greg H- 3 replies
- 488 views
I'm hoping someone can advise on a problem we are having. Since installing the Microsoft Patch MS08-067 last Friday, we cannot connect to two servers via Remote Desktop. The rest of our 70 servers are not having this problem. The RDP services are running. The firewall is off. I disabled and then renabled Remote Desktop on the My Computer Properties. I haven't restarted the server yet but will be trying that after 5 PM today. There are no errors in the logs regarding RDP. If you had this problem and were able to correct it, please advise. Thanks in advance. Greg

Windows Server 2003 Boot Problem
by Guest Brian Mosher- 2 replies
- 476 views
I have an old Win2K Advanced Server that I'd possibly like to upgrade to Windows Server 2003. I got the trial version from Microsoft and burned the 2 ISO images to CDs. The CD isn't bootable, though. It definitely has a boot sector on it, but just boots right into Server2K. The CD light blinks for a second on bootup and then moves right on. If I put the Server2K CD in, it will boot into that install fine. Any ideas? Thanks, Brian Mosher

Server Performance
by Guest Redleg6- 5 replies
- 665 views
We have a client-server application that we are having perfomance problems on. The server runs a very complex medical archiving application that is accessed by clients. The server runs Win2003 R2, the clients are a mixture of XP and 2000. Occassionally the server's avg disk queue length will increase suddenly and stay high (100+) for 15-20 seconds, drop down and then repeat again. When it is high the performance on the workstations suffers significantly. When the avg disk queue length increases pages\sec increases only a little. What could be our problem?

warning 4515 (source: DNS)
by Guest Banji ajiye- 1 reply
- 431 views
Below is the warning message i got in the event viewer of my DC1: The zone 1.168.192.in-addr.arpa was previously loaded from the directory partition MicrosoftDNS but another copy of the zone has been found in directory partition ForestDnsZones.unicem.com.ng. The DNS Server will ignore this new copy of the zone. Please resolve this conflict as soon as possible. If an administrator has moved this zone from one directory partition to another this may be a harmless transient condition. In this case, no action is necessary. The deletion of the original copy of the zone should soon replicate to this server. If there are two copies of this zone in two differ…

Recently Used Programs are not listed in Start Menu in Windows Ser
by Guest Chris Douglas- 0 replies
- 392 views
I am using Windows Server 2003. I really like the recently used programs section of the Start Menu, but I notice that certain Microsoft applications do not appear as they should. My understanding is that as the more an application is used, the higher it appears on the list. I use Microsoft Visual Source Safe and Microsoft Visual Source Safe Administrator quite often, but Administrator keeps dropping off the list. I have even removed items from the bottom of the list until it appears again, but then it disappears the next time I look for it. I also have determined that HTML Help Image Editor NEVER appears on the recently used program list. Never. I have re…

Re: Regarding Cluster server doubt. Once you wipe your 2000 domain controller you will loose all accounts even when you recreate them with the same names, it will not work.

by Guest Clubsprint- 9 replies
- 767 views
G'day all my proxy/internet server (2003 service pack 2) runs a product called Clearswift Mimesweeper that uses NT authentication to validate user data for instigation of rulesets and reporting.

The prtoblem appears to be that the proxy server is using a remote (WAN) DC to Authenticate. Does anyone know how I can force the proxy to authenticate to a particular or is there some software that will work? Thanks
