    Cannot telnet to Exchange 2003

    I setup HP Insight manager on a server. I set all of the snmp traps on the other 5 servers to point to this server so it can log the details. BUT I cant figure out how to establish the Alert manager. I have narrowed the problem to the fact that i cannot telnet from server 1 to Exchange2003server. It fails as it does from the other Win2k3 servers. Is there a specific setting or permission on the Exchange server OR the regular W2K3 servers that I am missing?

    WDS configuration error after risetup

    by Guest mu1980

    I have an external hard drive plugged into our WDS server, formatted NTFS, and the risetup process worked flawlessly, copying all the info from the XP cd. Now, when I want to configure WDS, I get a "the filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect" error when I click Next on the Remote Installation Folder section of configuring WDS. It correctly lists the drive letter and path to the remote install folder created during risetup. I can access the drive, etc. from outside of WDS config, but the program seems to have a problem with it. What's up with this? Any ideas? Thanks :)

    Security Log Oddity

    by Guest Daniel P. Cayea

    I have several Windows 2K3 SP2 or 2K3 R2 servers as domain controllers throughout the organization. I have the security logs setup usually at 16 meg size and to overwrite the log as necessary. The problem that I have been having, and haven't found a solution or maybe out of obtuseness I am just missing it, is that when I log on to these domain controllers, I will get the "Security Log is Full" error message. So I go into Event Viewer to see the security log and it resets to 512kb with no overwrite. So I set it back to 16384 wth overwrite as necessary only to have the same issue come up. If I remember correctly there was a hotfix to deal with this, b…

    question about dfs root

    another question... If I have a DFS Namespace set up say //mydomain/tech or //mydomain/shares/ with a folder created in the namespace say hs .....let me illustrate this as it would appear in DFS Management somewhat... Root: usd/shares Folder under root - Tech Folder under tech - Install - Targeted to another server. My question is, when someone creates something inside the "Tech" folder where is that actual file stored? On the namespace servers? If i'm using more than one server to host the namespace do those files get replicated?

    Server 2003, Quickbooks, Client Desktop Memory Problem

    I may be starting in the wrong place, but trying to find the "right" place to post about server/desktop/quickbooks/progression issues in any one forum is just too broad, so here goes. I'll welcome advice, tips on where to look, solutions,etc. I'm running Server 2003 with Quickbooks Enterprise 7.0 AND McCullogh Progression accounting packages installed. (Why? We are replacing Progression with Quickbooks, but some older clients can't be ported to the new platform so we have to run BOTH for a year or so.) I have 12 client computers that connect to the server and pull the accounting databases across the network. Progression uses SQL, requiring the MSDE on the …

    Primary NIC not being recognized

    by Guest doris

    Hi, I'm running Virtual Center 1.4.1 and the ESX host is at 2.5.5. My VM is built with a windows 2003 server OS and has two NICs. My binding order is set on these NICs but the VM is not recognizing the primary IP - it keeps defaulting to the second. I'm trying to figure out if this is a VM/win2003 issue or a win2003 issue. The same environment with windows 2000 works fine. Has anyone else encountered this? Thanks for any help

    monitoring file server usage

    Is there any good way to see what impact any given user has on file server performance. My fileserver is getting far more utilization than I think it should and I suspect that it's due to 1 or 2 users but I'm not sure which 2. Is there a way to track disk time per file or per user?

    RRAS Remote Access Policies filters keep coming back

    by Guest ttripp
    • 0 replies
    • 215 views

    On my RRAS server, in the Remote Access Policies, there is a default policy, "Connections to Microsoft Routing and Remote Access server", which is policy #1. Under the "Edit Profile" button, on the IP tab, there are two IP filter buttons, one for Input Filters and another for Output Filters. Even though I did not set a filter, in the Input Filters settings, a filter with a source address and mask of "host" and a destination and mask of "any", keeps popping up, along with the setting to "Permit only the packets listed below". Now, this filter should not actually do anything (it should allow all traffic), but for some reason my VPN users can't access Exchange…

    Managing Shadow Copy with group policies

    by Guest Alessandro
    • 1 reply
    • 178 views

    Hello. I am looking for a way to manage the Shadow Copy client by group policies. For example, I'd like to disable (on XP clients) the 'Restore' button, leaving only 'Open' and 'Copy'. Because I don't want that a distract user overwrite a file with an older version. I have looked for similar options in the group policy but I haven't found them. Could someone help me please? Thank you. Alessandro

    Polling and Reporting Servers with Uptime.exe

    by Guest a_user
    • 3 replies
    • 256 views

    Hi All, I am wondering if there are any free applications or small utilities out there that will allow you to poll your servers and systems that have uptime.exe on them and list the uptime of these systems and maybe in a column beside the systems hostname? I could see a utility like this being valuable for a quick glimpse and report of system availability and I dont see this as being something to difficult to do for someone inclined with programming. Does anything like this exist without getting into Enterprise level monitoring applications? Thanks

    Folder redirection

    by Guest Fiammenghi Fabrizio
    • 1 reply
    • 207 views

    Hi, I enabled folder redirection on my domain. I used the group policy management to create the policy. The folders are created correctly on the share, but the problems is that all my collegues manage to enter on this shared folder see documents of other collegues. If in group policy i enable the "Grant the user exclusive rights to my documents" only the owner can access the redirected folder,and domain admins can't do that. Is there a way to let only the owner and domain admins access the redirected folder , like the settings for roaming profiles ? Many thanks in advance Fabrizio

    PPTP stops working on Win2k SP4, any ideas why? netstat shows...

    Hi, I've got a win2k SP4 server running routing and remote access configured for PPTP. It will work great for a week or two and then all of a sudden stop allowing remote connections. Netstat -a shows it is listening on port 1723, but I am unable to connect to it with the "telnet localhost 1723" command. Also, I noticed today that the ports area of the routing and remote access tool was missing all of the entries for PPTP when it was not working. Once I restart, they are come back, it accepts port 1723 connections, and all is well again. By the way, restarting the remote and remote access service does not fix the issue. I have to restart the …
