When I remotely log on to a 2003SBS server and then via remote desktop to another server on that network running Server 2003 Standard I cannot use Manage Your Server nor mmc. I tried My Computer>rclick>Manage but doesn't work. Strange messages are popping out though, like "The application failed to initialize properly" or "Class not registered". Any ideas what can be the problem? yaro

Slow UNC or mapped copying even using only local resources?
by Guest Brenda- 0 replies
- 203 views
We have some kind of I/O issue on our Server 2003 machine. At first I thought it might be a network problem but, based on my experiment below which involves no network traffic at all, I think it's something else. Here's the experiment: 1. Create two folders on the desktop called 'A' and 'B' 2. Turn on sharing on folder 'B' 3. Place a 200 MB test file in folder 'A' 4. Copy file from 'A' to 'B' -- takes just a few seconds. 5. Click Start/Run and run \\server\b 6. Copy file from 'A' to \\server\b -- takes ten minutes! 7. Map drive Z to \\server\b 8. Copy file from 'A' to Z: -- also takes ten minutes! Why the slowness with mapped drive or UNC …

Windows 2003 Operations Master Roles
by Guest mcpp66- 0 replies
- 186 views
I'm currently studying for the MCSE cert and was hoping that someone could help me to understand the Infrastructure Master role. The MSPress book says that if the Infrastructure role is on the same server as the Global Catalog, that the Infrastructure role will not function because it will never find any data that is out of date. Can someone explain why this happens? Thank you.

autodisconnect
by Guest mmark751969- 0 replies
- 195 views
Just wondering if there is any side effect to disabling the autodisconnect feature on my windows 2k3 server domain controller. This is the feature that drops idle connections after a specified time- out period (by default, 15 minutes) to prevent wasting server resources on unused sessions. Has anyone done this with any negative effect. Thanks

Good Morning and thanks in advance for you assistance. I work in a school and have muliple network printers throughout labs in my building. I have all of the printers configured on a dedicated W2K3 Print Server and then mapped within each lab for the printers I wish them to have when they logon. I would like to redirect the jobs to the teachers workstation so she can approve and allow to continue to the printer device. I have this running in another lab that has high end Xerox printers that come with dedicated SUN machines that are running software to do this. I redirected the printer through the ports > configure tab and point it to a queue name a…

Hi, Can someone recommend me a good tool to recover deleted files/folders from mapped network drive? Fast and recent recovery are important and I do not want to use backup/restore approach. VSS is not an option for us as we don't have the extra space for it. I would like to be able to do that on the server side, especially on the terminal server if it is possible. Thanks Keith

Windows 2000 Print Server - Not Showing New Printer In Directory
by Guest cbtg2006- 0 replies
- 189 views
Hi Guys, We have a 2 Node Win 2K Advanced Server Cluster (MSCS) running a host of functions including a Print Server. I'm having an issue where all new printers I add are not being added to the Active Directory Printer List despite the fact they are configured to be listed in the directory. The printer is shared because it is viewable in Windows Explorer on browsing to the print server via '\\serevrname' I have re-created the printer and port. I have also stopped and restarted the print spool service (and in fact the server itself) Any ideas as to why this is not showing? Thanks in advance.

split implementation of dns
by Guest Vishal- 0 replies

Hi, We have got a split dns implementation on windows 2003. I have created a www record pointing to the IP address of the domain (A Record) I have done as suggested so that we are able to browse the domain without appending the www. hence To create a host record that allows going to the domain without using www or ftp or anything else you just add a new host for that domain that has nothing in the Name field so that it uses the parent domain. Add the IP address and check if you want it to update a PTR record and click Add Host. However, I get the following error: The associated pointer (PTR) record cannot be created, probably because th…

I have a user that moved from one location to another. Changed the Home Folder in AD to point to the new share. ie: \\server1\home\user to \\server2\home\user Also changed the My Documents location on the local workstation to point to the new share. Had to remove the registry key that prevents local user from changing My Documents location. Off and on for what appears to be no clear reason, it reverts back to the old share in AD. The Profile/Home Folder just switches back to the previous server. It causes the workstation to point to the wrong place so the user can't see any files. This happens sporadically and when I switch both AD and the My D…

File copy operations and performance problems?
by Guest Edgeman- 0 replies
- 313 views
Hello, I am running on x64 XP with 8 GB of RAM. I have issues copying or moving large files, either from drive to drive or over the network. When this happens my RAM is slowly eaten away until there is none left and the system starts aggressively paging. I googled and found this: http://www.eggheadcafe.com/software/aspnet/29912456/file-copy-operations-and.aspx Which is the same problem, so I know I am not alone. I'm just wondering if A: anyone else on here has experienced this, and B: if there is a solution at all? I should note that neither task manager nor process explorer show my RAM as being full when copying a file, but I have a little system…

Recently Used Programs are not listed in Start Menu in Windows Ser
by Guest Chris Douglas- 0 replies
- 401 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…

I have set up WEB server (Windows 2003 SP2 with IIS) to host a site. While looking through the security events audit. I noticed a large number of FAILURE AUDITS with the MICROSOFT_AUTHENTICATION_PACKAGE_V1 and KRBTGT\ service. These audits have various logon user names like PETER, APPLE, ROOT, LISA, MASTER, DOG and other random names. It has the sourceworkstation = the computer name of my server, and it has an error code of 0xC0000064. I am concerned. This happens for about a minute and stops during certain days. What is this? Is it an inside or outside hijack. What can this do? Can it control the computer. Thanks BUC

Question about W2K Server CALs
by Guest tim1948- 0 replies
- 244 views
My interest in W2K Server may be somewhat unusual, but hopefully someone will address it. My wife and I have two computers, one good and the other obsolete. An experiment indicated that RDP would allow the latter to function as a thin client, though consumer Windows does not support concurrent sessions. (And that's what I want, to use the better computer as an application server.) I purchased the "promo" edition of W2K Advanced Server for $88 online, which has a "10-client access limit." Does anyone know whether I shall be able to use it for my intended purpose without purchasing CALs?--at any rate, I have only the vaguest idea as to what they are or how to ac…

How to create a replication server
by Guest Marco- 0 replies
- 273 views
Hello. I have to exactly server. Same model, same hardware. One server is a file printer server the other one was an exchange server. No I'm not using that server as an exchange server I would like to configure it to be a backup server. My idea is to have a exact copy of the file printer server. If for any case if the file printer server goes off I have the backup server (the old exchange) to work. Users wouldn't note the difference. Regards, Marco
