I just installed wsus 3.0. I added a computer to the domain and several days later it is still not showing up in the wsus console. Is there any new setting in 3.0 that would prevent this? Thanks, Mike

WSUS Question - Deploying WSUS to an addtional server
by Guest Saral6978- 0 replies
- 207 views
I have an existing WSUS environment with an established database on a SQL server. How do I go about deploying WSUS to a new server in the existing environment. Do I just run the installation and I will just be prompted to choose an existing database? The WSUS env that is running now was something set up before I got here and I'm not familiar with the setup process as I personally haven't implemented it before. Thanks for any help - Hope this is in the right area - I didn't see a WSUS thread. Sara

WSUS Question after transferring to new server (Master or Upstream
by Guest Saral6978- 9 replies
- 578 views
I successfully set up a new Master server and now have my replicas sync'ing successfully after I ran through the export/import process of transferring the WSUS content from my original Master to my new one. However, there is one slight issue. When I log into the new Master/Upstream server, it basically says all updates need to be approved for installations, rather than where I had left off before the switch. Even if I do a sort for the last 2 months, it still brings up all the updates (going back years), which are like 1100+ updates. Is there any way to import the approval information from my original master server to the new one so it knows that I have i…

WSUS Server Replacement
by Guest RayRogers- 2 replies
- 238 views
Currently I have WSUS 2.0 server. We use AD group policies to have different OU point to this server for updates. I am working on replacing it with new server and install WSUS 3.0 instead. Should I just do refresh install? I have computer groups on exising old server? Is there a way to carry these settings (including the updates downloaded on existing server) over to new server with WSUS 3.0? Any suggestion on proper way to do this? Thanks!

WSUS Setting question
by Guest sfisher- 1 reply
- 147 views
Does anyone know why the 'Allow Basic authentication (password is sent in cleartext)' checkbox on the Proxy Server Tab of the Update Source and Proxy Server settings in Options does not remain checked. This is only happening on my newer Server 2k3 R2 Enterprise X64 edition SP2 Server. I have two WSUS servers one for two seperate AD Forests and the other Server is Running Server 2k3 R2 SP2 Standard 32 bit. My syncs fail on the new one until I recheck that box and immediately do another sync.

Hello, I have downloaded the Trial copies of WUDSS. I received my key and am able to install windows 2k3 with out an issue. However when i go to add the WUDSS package i get an error stating that I need to have windows Storage Server 2003 installed. I was wondering if this is an issue anyone else has seen. A little more background. ( as the above may be unclear ) when you go to download the WUDSS trial you get a link to a 180 day trial of WIndows 2003 Enterprise. Microsoft sends you a key via email that when entered converts the W2k3 to Windows Storage Server 2K3. ( supposedly ). During install I entered this Key however i see no change. I…

X-Forest GPO Machine Assigned Software Deployment
by Guest cbtg2006- 1 reply
- 354 views
Hi guys, We're in the middle of a migration from a Win2K forest to a Win2K3 forest and I'm having fun with Group Policies. We use GPO to deploy Office 2000 to clients, this is a machine assigned application. I have migrated the policy using GPMC but software deployments do not work from a workstation in the new domain trying to receive the source installation files form a machine in the old domain. I have even tried this with a new policy created in the new domain using MSI source files from the old domain. I guess my question is, initially simple; is it possible to deploy machine assigned software via Group Policy in a multi-forest environment? The fo…

x64 Process using x32 Dll
by Guest Jackson- 0 replies
- 220 views
Hi, I have a requirement to allow a 64bit application running under Server 2003 R2 x64 to call a 32 bit dll. (The dll is from a third party so I'm stuck with 32 bit). FRom what I've managed to find the way to do this is by adding a COM wrapper around the 32 bit dll. Is this the best/only way to achieve this? Any pointers to documentation for Server 2003 that describes this would also help. --------- Regards Jackson

x64 Windows 2003 SP2 and Exchange 2003
by Guest Ian McShane- 0 replies
- 275 views
Now before I start, I know that installing Exchange 2003 onto Windows 2003 x64 is not a supported configuration. However, I need to make use of some DLLs that are installed as part of the ESM installation. The install can be completed, albeit with a warning dialogue, on Windows 2003 base and SP1 (and all available updates). After installing Windows 2003 SP2, it is not possible to continue past the warning dialogue. The continue button that is available in base and SP1 is greyed out under SP2. I've searched high and low for an explanation of this, it's not detailed in the SP2 release notes or readme and there is no KB article mentioning this (not eve…

Yes I know there are other parms I did not include, but my issue is that the file.log captures all the files being copied. However if there is an error message, it appears on the screen and never stored in the file.log. This was not the case in NT4. Any suggestions

Xcopy from XP client trashes volume on Windows 2000 server
by Guest Ben Bazian- 3 replies
- 233 views
Here is one for the group. Wonder if anyone has heard of this. I have a Windows 2000 server as part of a Windows domain. The particular server has a large hard drive so I have my laptop users execute a batch command that xcopies modified files to a share on the server. I have one laptop that crashed the server while the xcopy was running. I believe it was copying a ..pst file. The server would not boot. Just got a blinking cursor on startup. I booted from the Windows 2000 CD and ran chkdsk. That appeared to fix the issue. Other users in the interim executed their backup without issue. On Friday I decided to try to have the user run the backup ag…

Xcopy not working in startup script
by Guest Slingshotz- 10 replies
- 723 views
This is driving me nuts and I have not been able to find any answers on any user group. This is a basic batch file script that I am deploying through group policy in the startup script to copy templates from the server to the local machine. I'm deploying it during the startup so that every computer gets it, regardless of who logs in. ========================= if NOT exist "C:\Templates" md "C:\Templates" pushd "\\servername\Templates\" xcopy *.dot C:\Templates /Y /D popd ========================= The script works perfectly when run by itself, but during the startup script when a computer starts up it keeps saying that *.dot is not found. =======…

xcopy question
by Guest KDawg44- 2 replies
- 263 views
Hi, I have a server that a bunch of people access. They have read access to a folder. I have another server that a small group accesses and stores image files on. I have a batch file that uses xcopy to copy the files up to the first server once a week. My question is: is there a switch so that xcopy only copies the files that have changed? or does it do this by default? Thanks. Kevin

Xerox Printer spits out message
by Guest Greg G- 2 replies
- 271 views
I have a Xerox Phaser 1235 color printer that every day spits out 25-40 pages of unreadable garbage. One line per page. Users do not print this, it comes out on its own. A few lines are readable they mention: SMB - PC Network Program 1.03 - Microsoft Networks 1.03 I cannot seem to stop this stuff from coming out. Has anyone seen this behaviour with this model of printer? -- Thank You

I have a Windows Server 2003 Standard install with 5 Widnows XP Pro SP2 clients. This server houses both regular file shares and our Small Business Accounting installation (on MSDE). After logging in everything will appear to work well for about 30 minutes to an hour. After that, the time to open a file or browse a folder on the server will take anywhere from 1 to 5 minutes and connectivity to the SBA server data is impossible - it will simply come up as "unable to locate server". This originally happened on one PC (an HP laptop) and was subseuently followed by the remaining computers over the course of a month. We use Symantec Antivirus Corporate Ed. 10 on t…
