I need to know if I can upgrade from Server 2003 Web edition to Server 2003 Std edition? I have a full retail copy of both and need to upgrade to Std so I can use 4GB of ram. The 2GB limit in the Web edition is just not cutting it for my purpose. Thanks, Steve

I have a folder with thousands of files and at least 100 folders. How can I list all of them that have been modified in the last say 60 days, sorting by date. The dir *.* /s /o:d sorts each folder individually, not all together as one. If I right click on the folder and do a Search, there are so many of them and can get them into a report. Thanks in advance for all advise given...

Is there a clever way to defragment the C: drive in Windows Server 2000 and/or 2003 from a boot disk (floppy or CD) using dfrg.msc? Obviously it's better to defrag the C: drive before it loads applications, etc. Thanks.

Spoolsv.exe high memory usage
by Guest Joe Quigley- 2 replies

Hello, The Spooler service on my Windows 2003 SP2 server is using 1.6GB (yes, GB) of memory. I can not figure out why the service is using so much memory. There are 14 network printers in use on the server. There are no jobs stuck in any of the queues. Restarting the service reclaims the memory but it will go back to using that much over time. There was a memory leak in SP1 (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/927744/en-us) but that was supposed to be fixed in SP2. I have checked the version of spoolsv.dll as specified the KB article. I have 5.2.3790.3959 which is later then version referenced in the article. Is anyone else seeing this kind of memory u…

by Guest Jammer2omega- 0 replies

Starting up a file server in my company. Boss wants to use Server 2003 Standard. We want each person to be able to log into any computer and only access their files. IE: Designers would see all design folders, but not Business data, Whereas, if the designer logged out of the computer and an Accountant logged in, the Accountant would see all the business data but none of the design data. I need this to work for MACs as well, Two running Tiger, and one running Leopard. Also, I know I need a CAL for each one accessing data off of the server, Will These CALs work with MACs? Any and all help will be appreciated, thanks!

Hi all, we have roaming profiles who log into terminal server sessions. Are we to change the TS profile path, or are the users okay with using their existing roaming profile? That is, do we need to recreate a new "TS Roaming Profile Path" for those roaming users??? Thanks,
