Offline files synchronization fails for 4 files, "access denied"
by Guest mct@pioneerprogramming.com- 22 replies
- 1.4k views
I have a client who took her XP Pro laptop home over the weekend and made changes to 4 files which are in her My Documents folder. Her folder is on \\server\home$\username\My Documents. \\server\home$ is the share, with Everyone having full control of the share. Her My Documents is being redirected via group policy with Basic redirection to that folder. The folder was automatically created by the policy the first time she logged in, and the files were moved automatically to that folder with no problems. It has worked well for over a month. When she connects to the network, the warning appears in the system tray saying offline changes need to be synch…

We have a recent issues where the users Home drive, mapped via their profile for Home drive is only mapping to the share level ie \\server\home\ and no \\server\home\%username%. This is a very recently problem and appears to be only occuring on XP desktops. Doesn't seem to be an issue on terminal server profiles. All this as worked for 3 year before this problem started occuring. Could this be a client side patch?

Server 2003 File Rights
by Guest Mike- 3 replies
- 251 views
Hello everyone, I have a question regarding file rights. According to what I've read and understand when a folder is copied from one location to another it will inherit the rights from the new parent folder, however if a folder is moved to a new location it will retain the old rights that it had previous to the move. At this point we have to access the share and force the inheritance to make the folder have the correct rights. This link explains what I'm seeing... http://www.lockergnome.com/it/2005/06/10/exam-70-290-copyingmoving-folders-files/ We would like the inherited rights to apply regardless of whether the folder is copied or moved. Is this a …

Home Folder
by Guest Jasper Recto- 4 replies
- 282 views
Our users each have a their own Home folder. When they log into the domain, it automatically connects them to it based on their user profile information. However, sometimes when they log in, it does not connect to their individual folder but to the parent folder. For example, a users home folder is set to this: Z: drive --> \\Fileserver\Users\JohnDoe. The Users folder is the shared folder in this case. When they log in, their Z: drive should be linked to that location. However sometimes it does not map directly to the JohnDoe folder, it maps to the Users folder where they see all the users folders listed in there. Why does it do this and…

Server 2003 - System process hogging CPU
by Guest ctech- 0 replies
- 141 views
We are using Windows Server 2003 and in the past couple of days the System process has been taking about 50% of the CPU. I am using a program called "Process Explorer" but can't nail down what is actually causing this. Prior the System process was only using about 5% of the CPU. There have been no addionational software or hardware changes recently. This is causing some network file sharing to be sluggish. Any help in pointing me in the right direction to try find the issue that is causing this would be appreciated.

Service Recovery Options
by Guest Bart Perrier- 2 replies
- 184 views
We are considering configuring the Recovery Options for a service in the event of a failure and for the Third Recovery Option, we have discussed launching a vbScript to send an email. Although the script to send the email is straight forward, I would like to make it generic enough to be able to apply it to any service without modifications. The pertinent information for the script would be Server Name Service Name Is there a value I can poll on the fly that will provide me with the Service which failed or some way to identify which service failed without hardcoding it in the script? (Hardcoding it is not an unreasonable option but, if I can grab it…

Help! Configuring iSCSI in Server 2008 Core is terrible...
by Guest Ed Swindelles- 0 replies
- 159 views
I am trying to configure a Server 2008 Datacenter Core server to mount an iSCSI volume. The server has multiple NIC's, one of which is on the iSCSI VLAN. The server is in a workgroup and will be a Hyper-V host. On a separate Win 08 box with a full installation and domain membership I can mount the iSCSI volume no problem with Storage Explorer by entering the target portal address and logging into the right IQN. In addition, from that '08 box (or another Vista box that I have) I can fully remotely manage the Server Core box through a combination of firewall rules and local accounts (cmdkey /add). So, I know my problems are not permissions related. Aga…

I have Vista on my computer and this morning it started downloading some updates. I didn't have time to wait for all the updates to be downloaded and I shut down my computer. Now I turned it on and is staying for more than an hour with the processing screen and the message: Configuring Updates, Do not turn off your computer. I am afraid it got stuck and I don't know what am I supposed to do. Any similar experiences out there ? Thanks.

by Guest Thee Chicago Wolf- 2 replies
- 192 views
Our site is testing and will eventually migrate to AD on Server 2003. I've had the client machines set up with a scheduled task to shut down nightly at 10:10PM using Run As local Admin. A couple of test machines we've joined to AD no longer shut down.As far as I can tell, the local admin account no longer does it's job and the scheduled task no longer runs. What's the easiest way to set this up via AD? Cheers. - Thee Chicago Wolf

Script needed to Delete Files in a Directory Based on Date
by Guest adaher008 via WinServerKB.com- 2 replies
- 195 views
Hi - I have a folder that contains about 250,000 zipped files. Windows explorer is having tremendous difficulty opening such folder, even when it displays results (after 10 or so minutes) it hangs after I even highlight any files for deletion. a lot of these files go back to 2006 and 2007. I kindly NEED a DOS batch file or some script that I would enable me to delete the files that are older than may 2008 (In other words delete files between May 2008 and May 2006). Thank You, and your efforts are much appreciated in advance. wiseteufel -- Message posted via WinServerKB.com http://www.winserverkb.com/Uwe/Forums.aspx/windows-server/200809/1

We have our users configured in active directory with their home directories mapped to \\server\share\username using drive letter P:. We are using the proile tab of the users' properties. We use the Home folder section of the profile tab as follows: Connect P: to \\server\share\username We also have each users my documents redirected to the P:\My Documents. When the user browses to the \\server\share, they get access denied if they try to access another user's home folder, so we have confirmed the permissions are correct.

Windows server 2003 printing problem - dialog box on console must beclicked to resume priting I have a Win 2003 Server Standard box that I am using as a print server. There are around 50 network printers that are connected to queues on this server. All our users connect to qhared queues on the server rather than directly to the printers via IP.

I get a call saying users can't print and when I remote in to the server everyting looks fine except that there are several jobs in the queue waiting. When I walk to the server room and log on to the machine directly, th…

Automating DCOM permissions

- 139 views
Hi, I am trying to automate the building od student machines for the classroom using GHOST. So far, everything is working well, however I need to set the DCOM security settings on each machine individually. I have a batch file that is running to do various things after the ghost build, so I need to know how to add this in to the mix. I have a couple of components that I need to add a user in to the "Launch and Activation Permissions" on the "Security" tab as well as altering the username / password on the "Identity" tab. How do I do this from a batch file / command line? Many thanks, Paul
